Yardy Rum Bar

I went with my cousin to the Yardy Rum Bar on Friday night at 5:00 p.m. we had the chick pea on bread appetizer. He had the jerk chicken with the thick crispy and salty fries. I had a large slab of adobo pork with pickled something on it. We had rum drinks and we finished it off with raisin rum ice cream and chocolate cake. All of the food was excellent! We sat in the patio where are we ordered online and then later paid online, so that was very efficient. Even though we entered at 5:00 p.m., their opening time, with about 20 or so other people, our food and drinks arrived in a timely manner. There were at least three episodes of wrong food being set on our table. Patio to me usually indicates an outdoor area, which it was not in this case. I'd eat there again in a heartbeat.

Yardy is a great little resteraunt in Eugene with a Caribbean themed menu. It is located in a converted house in the downtown area. The menu is relatively small and changes seasonally. We found plenty of intriguing offerings. Everything was excellent and they had vegan options as well which were delicious and creative. As far as I know they do not take reservations and can get quite busy so arrive a bit before you would like to eat. Parking is on the streets surrounding the resteraunt as well as a neighboring parking garage and there are a few spots in the lot behind the building. Overall we had an excellent dinner and the food was really tasty. Will return!

Family style plates and delicious food. We had the Doubles, 3pc Chicken, and Jerk Veggie plate (comes with market veg and red beans and rice). The doubles are a delight, a set of two fried flatbreads topped with curried chickpeas. Lightly spicy, fully spiced, with a refreshing herbal and sour note that brings it all together. The fried chicken, a delight--juicy, crispy, and seasoned to perfection. Served with a curry and spicy pepper sauce that bring brightness and heat if you're wanting that. The jerk veggie plate was also terrific. Since it's market veg I hesitate to comment on specific veg, but we had a variety of root vegetables that were cooked to perfection. And the red beans and rice were amazing and comforting paired with the chicken. Didn't get any of the liquor but the listened to the bartender give a couple of the nearby tables some great rundowns; we did have an incredible local cider that paired amazingly with the menu we had. Despite counter/qr code ordering, we found the service excellent--we didn't have to ask for water at all, and it was lovely to chat about the menu with the staff. I hope you all enjoy this gem in your community!

First off big shout out to Niko, Isaiah and staff 🙏🏾❤️ much love and respect. Yardy has delivered every time. The food is consistent with great taste and authentic flavor. Made with love. Great spot to chill from a long day. You know one thing that gets me every time when I receive my order is the presentation!!!! Always on point 👌🏾. Again much love and respect. When you arrive you have to order the chicken.

Delicious, local, and super unique food with a ton of flavor! Everything is made in house…down to the vanilla extract. Definitely deserving of all the praise (including from the James Beard foundation; Yardy is a semifinalist for 2025 awards). The experience is superb: fine food in a casual environment; easy to order by phone or with the front and food comes out family style; friendly staff; menu changes frequently with the seasons, creative cocktails and mocktails as well as Caribbean drinks such as mauby and malta, etc. We are extremely lucky to have Isaiah and his vision and expertise in Eugene! Favorite new(er) restaurant in town; HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Tucked inside a cute little house is some of the best food ever. The fried chicken- wonderful. Jerk chicken and chicken sandwich- both top notch. Rum cocktails are great. This is a true hidden gem in Eugene that should not be missed.

Come here for the fried chicken and amazing spices. If you’ve got a taste for fiery spice you can get it here. My favorite is the chicken and waffles. Drink recommendation is the daiquiri.

🤤What an experience!🤩 We all walk into a house off the street, and I instantly get home-cook'n vibes with the aromas to accompany the energy. The hospitality was S-tier. I don't eat rhubarb or radish, etc. But eating them made by the 2 Chef/Owners that run this joint got me hands-on head🤦🏿‍♂️🙆🏿‍♂️ reevaluating my life decisions. OVER SOME DANG VEGGIES YA'LL! 🤪 The Fried Chicken was so good, cooked and seasoned to a crispy perfection 😙🤌🏿. Also, the donuts were delicious. And I don't like donuts😏. The ingredients are locally sourced within miles from local farmers as well🧏🏿‍♂️. Go check this little hidden gem, and catch some island vibes! SO FRESH!!!🫜🍠🥬🫚🍚🫘🍗🍗🥃

What are great experience! I've been hearing good things about Yardy's for a while now and we finally made it in. So glad we did! Everyone was soooo nice! The place was very welcoming as well. There were a lot of tables for groups and the place was packed when we went. Drinks were solid. I had a Cuba Libre that took me back to the islands. Julie had a Mamajuana Old Fashion that she enjoyed as well. The big surprise for me was the number of gluten-free options on the menu. It was easy to find lots of great options! We had the Jerk Chicken Plate and the Fried Chicken as well as any third dish that was served on a plantain that I can't remember the name. All amazing with fantastic spicing. Dessert was a seasonal sorbet that was popping with berry flavors. Overall a huge win. We'll certainly be back!

My fiance and I celebrated our anniversary at Yardy and it wasn't all it had been hyped up to be. With it being so small and the way it's set up, I was a bit disappointed that there was not table service, but rather you order with a QR code. It was incredibly busy, which is great! But they need more staff. The food was incredible! I really enjoyed the everything we ate. However, our appetizer came out cold and it took awhile to get any staff's attention so that we could get one that wasn't cold. We had the pork shoulder and it was melt in your mouth tender. Definitely really great! We knew from ordering our first round of drinks that it would be awhile if we ordered another. Our first round took about 30 minutes and our food came out before them, even though we ordered the drinks with the host before even sitting at the table. The bartender was super busy and I totally understand, again they need more staff. We ordered a rum flight to share between our appetizer and our main dish arriving. After 25 minutes, we had finished our dish and still did not have the rum flight. We asked the host and she was able to check in with the bartender, and he quickly made it. Overall, I would come back but it wouldn't be up on my list of places to go again. The food and atmosphere were fantastic, minus the few hiccups, but the lack of service is what will keep me away for awhile. I hope they hire more staff and move away from the QR codes.

Updating my review as Yardy has since transformed into a full restaurant and bar! Yardy makes market-driven West Indian fare, meaning as a vegan you're going to enjoy the freshest local produce available. It also means the menu will slightly change seasonally, which is exciting. What started as a food truck has expanded into a full restaurant complete with a rum cocktail menu, indoor and outdoor seating. You order at the counter when you arrive, then seat yourself. Your food is brought to your table as it's ready, and most of the offerings are designed to be shared. As someone who enjoyed the doubles from their original food truck, that's what I had been craving most. However, I was thoroughly ready to try what else they had come up with! For small plates we ordered the jerk smoked beets which had so much flavor, and the doubles which comes with a chickpea curry over two pieces of fried flatbread topped with several tasty chutneys. For the main course we ordered the market curry plate which featured a variety of vegetables cooked to perfection on a bed of curry and aloo with a scoop of rice. Keep in mind there's some heat but not too much handle. Lastly, we tried a variety of cocktails. It does have rum bar in the name! I don't think you could go wrong but I loved the Fresa Coconut Cooler. Yardy is making something entirely different than what can be found anywhere else in town, and I love it. Plus, the building and the patio are so cute, you feel transported to another place. If you've been waiting to check it out, or haven't heard of it yet, get yourself there asap!

Been here twice now to give it a shot and I'm on the fence about going back. First time I came, the physical menu had stuff on it that wasn't on the online menu to actually be ordered. Most recently, the physical and online menus matched but they were out of stuff on a Friday night. The whole situation feels chaotic. The people working are very nice and food is fine but I'm just lukewarm on it, overall.

Came back here to try their red beans and rice, and a few other goods as well! I loved the sorrel punch cocktail - it was not overly sweet and felt well balanced overall. A stand out was the smoked jerk beet salad - AMAZING! I didn't love the red beans and rice, but being Cajun, I do have some preconceptions about what red beans and rice is meant to be. It was more bland than their other dishes and didn't resemble what I'm used to - and that's okay. My husband loved it. Will be back!

Such a better experience than our last ! Even with two wild kids we were greeted with a smile & treated great. We love the fried chicken. The brine is so flavorful! We had beans & rice, plantains & yummy cornbread. ! We love the drinks too. Dark and stormy & pina colada- both not too strong !

This place is real deal! We loved our meal at Yardy's!!! The process for ordering food is a little different than expected, but it works. You order at the counter to your right when you first walk in, then grab a seat in the dining room upstairs, downstairs, or outside and they bring the food to you. We tried the Jerk Chicken, Fried Chicken, and NW Snapper (aka Rockfish). Everything was phenomenal!!! The Jerk Chicken was super juicy/moist and delivered robust jerk flavors accompanied with a little bit of heat. The fried chicken was hot, crispy, moist, and delicious. Our friend ate the Rockfish so fast that I forgot to get tasting notes LOL! Each dish comes out as ready. All of the food came out super quick and piping hot! Atmosphere and vibes were super chill and casual. The background music played at the perfect volume level and totally fit the vibes. Staff was very nice. Owner was also super cool. Really down to earth. Yardy's has a very bright future and will be one of the most sought-after restaurants in Eugene. Definitely check it out!

Love this place. All the food was filled with flavor and decent sized portions. Staff was friendly and attentive.

I honestly don't know where to begin. This place truly is a diamond in the ruff. You'd never expect to come across carribean food in Eugene Orgen of all places, but amazing carribean food!? C'mon man. This food really did blow me away. The friend chicken was packed full of flavor. Juicy and moist on the inside, and perfectly crispy on the outside. That corn bread and butter was a trip to heaven with every bite. The red beans and rice tasted no different than how my Dominican friend's mom makes it. Coming across places like this is why I love being a foodie. The good here really is made with love. The service here was great. We were immediately greeted and had our order taken. You place your order, them sit down, then your food is brought to you. The people are really nice. We got to talk to the owners, and they are really great people. The ingredients are sustainability sourced, and a lot of thought and attention go into their product. The vibe here really is that of a carribean house/restaurant. I AM a carribean, and I felt like I was back home as a child, eating my mom's home cooked food. It's a feeling I can't describe. There is seating on the main floor as well as upstairs here. Make sure you get a seat before they all go because there was a little line forming as I left. The only critique I have would just be the portion of rice with the red beans and rice. Feel like a could be a bit more generous. Other than that, PLEASE COME HERE.

Had dinner at this very cosy newer restaurant last night for the first time. It was terrific. Started with sharing beet salad with hazelnuts which was beautifully presented and delicious. We then had fried chicken with waffles and shrimp with grits as our main courses. Fried chicken was just the best in taste and texture and shrimp and grits were perfect. If I voiced any complaint, it would be that the service was too good. Everyone there were very friendly and helpful. We also started with 2 very reasonably priced cocktails. We'll be back soon.

It was approximately 6:37pm on a Sunday evening in May, seated in the corner of Yardy Rum Bar's outside patio, when my soul briefly left my body. It wasn't just one thing, but a convergence of factors, included but not limited to the following: the evening sunlight reflecting off the roof beams, the vibratons of well-curated 90s hip-hop and r&b (at just the right volume), the sweet heat of Nico's coconut-infused rum & ginger liquid concoction, the golden crispy-yet-fluffy magical bread dipped into the tart broth of the buljol (salt-cod) salad, the speckled stoneware that held these gorgeous, delicious items. It was all just too much sensory pleasure... I began to ascend. And then the jerk chicken arrived, looking like an exquisite piece of art. And I took a bite of the tender juicy meat with the jerk spice-infused skin and closed my eyes, and felt nothing but gratitude to all the wonderful folks involved with creating the experience. Oh man, I really needed this.

This restaurant/rum bar is totally fantastic. The absolute best sangria on planet Earth. The unique menu is to die for. Intimate, cozy and friendly we love this place. The curry and jerk dishes are great. The seafood too. And the best chicken and waffles. I personally love the pork shoulder.

I am updating my review. While the food was not my thing and I must have picked the wrong drink, the owner reached out to me to discuss. This is great customer service. I think you should give it a try and make up your own mind.

Oh my goodness, this place is GOOD! Every dish was so flavorful and unique. You honestly can't go wrong. I ordered the lamb special and will be dreaming about the perfect cook and combinations of flavors. My husband ordered the BBQ chicken which had the perfect crispy skin. The cocktails were delicious. You do have to order at the front counter before you sit, so make sure you get the menu before you get to the front of the line.

Well just so you know the food truck has been closed and they are in a brick and mortar. I only came to try the doubles, the flavor was good, but they weren't quite right, this is supposed to be street food eaten with your hand. But the flavors were good and the hot sauce was tasty. My food was served quickly and the staff were very nice. I like the place too being able to sit outside was great, nice decor very cozy. I would go there again to sample more of the menu

It's wonderful to have Yardy in a brick & mortar location now! It's in the building that formerly housed The Vintage, complete with patio and upstairs seating. Ordering is by counter service, so make sure you know what you want before you get up there! The food is really delicious. The menu has seasonal components but it seems like the staples will be there year-round. Definitely check it out!

We went there for the first time tonight. The food was delicious! We shared the fried chicken, adobo pork, beans and rice, as well as an appetizer. The service was fantastic and the drinks were great. Highly recommend!!

The food is on point. Never had a better piece of pork shoulder in my life. The fried chicken was juicy, crunchy and paired with a spicy but rich sauce. The drinks are rum based and carefully curated. If you like rum this is the place.

Count us among the delighted patrons of Yardy Rum Bar. We ordered a good sampling: fried chicken w/hot sauce, jerked chicken, rice & beans, some sort of split pea dumpling thingy in tamarind sauce, and two rum drinks. So many and varied flavors, all wonderful together and apart. The fried chicken came with some pickled veggies that perfectly complemented the dish, and the jerked chicken came with some nicely spiced jo-jos. Both drinks were amazing. The dark & stormy was big and bold. The daiquiri was delicate and delicious -- not the thick, cloying kind some think of when ordering a daiquiri. Service was friendly and prompt, and the atmosphere was cozy. Oh, and prices were reasonable. Total for all of the above plus tip came to about $70, with plenty of leftovers for lunch. What's not to love about this place? Nothing, is the answer. We loved everything about it.

This is a bonified foodie spot hidden gem. 5s across the board. I had the fried chicken and wow. The meat was favorable and juicy to the bone. My son had the jerk chicken and wow again. He gave me a a taste that made me want to dap up the cook. And let me not forget the red beans and rice. If my mom's was there my face would have got me in trouble. Major find when I thought I was lost in a land or bland 3 star restaurants.

thanks to Camas Swale Farm for the shout out from your newsletter to check out Yardy's. Camas Swale cucumbers, tomatoes and melon really popped out in the cucumber watermelon salad with a really tasty sauce. We highly recommend this fun and friendly high quality restaurant. Richard & Katy

Amazing food, drinks, and service. I especially love that as a vegan that I have options. The doubles are delicious as well as the rice and beans!

Ordered 3 piece chicken and extra red beans and rice. Only got two pieces of chicken. Breading on the chicken was very good. Red beans and rice.... Zero seasoning. Awful. And I think someone messed with the order. Will not be ordering again.

This place is awesome! I tried out the pikliz and the homemade doughnuts! Both were very tasty! The pikliz I'd loosely compare to coleslaw, but that's kinda disrespectful to the pikliz! It has such a nice tang and balance of flavors! Oh and the doughnuts! Fresh, fluffy and flavorful! I've heard the chicken is all the rave and I'll definitely be back to give it a try, as well as order more of the pikliz and the doughnuts! Staff are friendly and helpful with answering any questions regarding the menu! Truck is currently parked at ColdFire Brewing. Camera didn't eat first on this one! Sorry not sorry! ‍

The excellent flavors of the food made up for all the items I didn't love. QR code ordering is, as always, lame. It makes no sense to send out the sides before the main course. $6 for a very small side of potato salad is bonkers to me, but it tasted great. 5 stars for the actual food. 4 stars for 'service' (host to explain process and someone to bring your meal). 1 star for owners guest experience decisions.

The food tastes like love and passion. The chef is clearly putting his heart into his food. I'm afraid they're going to put themselves out of business with the amount of effort they put in each dish, so go there quickly. I don't love ordering on my phone, but they explained they just don't have the staff to do it differently. I got over it. Their prices are selling themselves short. It's awesome quality food in a humble and cute setting.

Updating that I tried the new brick & mortar location and everything was exactly as good as I remember from the truck. Plus, expanded menu and faster service, too. Improved ambiance from the old The Vintage location - brighter now.

A simple menu with outstanding, fresh food and sublime libations. Food is served family style, so be prepared to share! The plataños maduros (fried plantains) came out caramelized with a savory garlic topping, which balanced the sweetness of the plantains. The tamarind barbecue fried chicken was crisp on the outside, juicy on the inside, and covered with a sticky, tangy sauce that helped mellow out the spicy kick of the curry chana (chickpeas) that I ordered as a side. I also had a side of pink beans, and they were flavorful, almost creamy, and extremely comforting. My Cuba Libre cocktail was light, refreshing, and not too sweet--I would have enjoyed another one. I can't wait to come back in the Spring or Summer to enjoy the outdoor seating options.

First of all, come to Yardy at least 30 minutes before you plan to get hangry. As the cart says, it's #blackslowfood. It's well worth the wait though! The chicken is pan-fried to order and stayed piping hot longer than one would expect. The batter is light, flavorful, and crispy, and the meat is juicy and flavorful as well. The cornbread is yummy on its own. The vegetable of the day was pickled okra, which was deliciously refreshing. The plantains were smashed into pretty flower shapes and super garlicky, which I enjoyed. The Doubles were tasty too, with a bit of a spicy kick. I would personally skip them next time, because it was so much food! This is a nice food cart pod with covered outdoor seating on either side of the bar, as well as indoor seating.

The food is simply amazing . The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Will be coming back!

Was really looking forward to trying Yardy out and was not all disappointed! Went there to celebrate my husband's birthday as he's a huge fan of rum. I'm not that big of a fan, but ordered the daquiri as my first cocktail and it was really, really good (I ordered another). Food is flavorful, exotic, and delicious, and pairs really well with the rum cocktails. Owner (Nico) dealt very professionally with an ordering issue we had (software bug; no fault of the business) and all in all had a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Food was amazing! I have never had Caribbean food before and this was so amazing! The pan friend Chicken is a must! The Smokey adobo pork shoulder was so tender and the grits so delicious! Cornbread and red beans with rice also a must try! Service was great, everyone friendly and helpful with making choices. It's cute comfy, homey feeling restaurant and felt so welcoming too! A must try!

I have heard wonderful things about this food truck. Mostly super high praise for their chicken. They are the only food truck in Eugene to pan fry their chicken. But I saw that there were some options for me, as a vegan, so I wanted to give them a try. I ordered the Doubles. Two pieces of turmeric flatbread topped with curry chickpeas and chutney. SO.GOOD. Incredibly flavorful and savory. I've never had chickpeas feel so silky and smooth as I eat them. I highly recommend stopping by and giving them your support.

A wonderful spot for West Indian food at one of our favorite breweries. We stopped in this weekend after a long hike and were looking for something hearty to go with our cold beers. We've gotten their fried chicken once previously and it was so hot we had to wait quite a while for it to cool down enough to eat. It wasn't quite as fresh this time, but still quite tasty. The chicken is skillet fried with a flavorful crispy exterior. I love the hot sauce it comes with, a wonderful flavor but you only need a small dab! It came with a side of cornbread and some sort of gravy like sauce that we were maybe meant to dip the chicken in (?). I think our meal had previously come with a vegetable side, but did not this time. We also tried the doubles this time, which were a new food for us. Two small soft doughy flatbreads with chickpeas and chutney on top. They were flavorful and I really liked the soft texture. Wait times for food have varied from just a few minutes, to over half an hour, but it's always worth the wait!

Wow! An amazing experience from start to finish. The food was just an explosion of flavors from all over the Caribbean, guaranteed to please all tastes. The service was exceptional, and the ambience was very pleasant. My personal favorite dish was the curry duck!

This is Yardy's Rum Bar now and it is fantastic. I'm awed by the food this kitchen is turning out consistently. Depth of flavor, perfect technique (crispy fish skin, delicate curry, chewy rice). It's harder than it looks to do this and to do it for every dish is something I rarely experience in Eugene. My favorite cocktail is Corn and Oil. It's amazing. Salad has Isaiah's incredible green goddess dressing but if you like vinegar the pickled coleslaw is also terrific. The regular fish dish is so delicious as well as duck curry and jerk chicken. Tonight we tried the bread pudding which is everything you want this type of dessert to be and almost never is. I hope he loves what he's doing and keeps doing it a long time.

Menu is unique and delicious. Cocktails on point. No frills setting- it's all about the food here, and that's refreshing and appreciated. New favorite! Keep up the good work

So tasty and unique for Eugene!! Flavors are rich and fun - fried chicken is fantastic! Love the people who work there, and they are really helpful with understanding and choosing something you'd like from the menu.

One of the most fun and flavorful places in all of Eugene. I was transported to the Caribbean on a cold wet rainy Oregon night. The spices, the flavor, and the heat are just amazing. Fried chicken and waffles with the West Indies twist was out of this world. Will be back again and again.

This was one of the best meals I have had in Eugene in a long time. We ordered at the counter and sat outside on the patio which was really quaint and lovely. The food arrived quickly by attentive servers who checked in frequently. We ordered the fried chicken, potato salad and green salad. Everything about this meal was exceptional. The portions were huge, the chicken was hot, juicy, and seasoned to perfection. It made for a perfect date night! Thank you!

Delicious fried chicken! Succulent with a crisp crust flavored with allspice. Friendly staff and not to be missed!

Delicious everything. Fried chicken is worth the trip by itself but the cornbread, donuts and other sides are mouth watering as well. Do not forget the donuts!!! Incredibly friendly, genuine service. Fantastic local business that gives back to the community over and over.

Music was all F*** this N***** that. Asked the waitress about it and was told that TRAP music was played after 7:00 as she walked away unconcerned. Not family friendly at all. Won't be back.

Amazing pan fried chicken. Seriously so good and delicious cornbread, slaw, treats, everything is so fresh and home cooked. I crave this food and eat here at least twice a month. Take out for the family stays fresh and hot all the way across town.

Apparently I've passed through Eugene once 12 years ago and do not remember, but it was with my parents, that being said I have just arrived there with my wife this afternoon and we tried this place for lunch at the food card area. Seen that they served crunchy fried chicken and other interesting items on the menu we decided to choose the fried chicken, corn bread, potato salad and some cold brews from across the way. The fried chicken tasted deliciously flavorful and the salt wasn't too much either and I loved every bit of it down to the bone. The potato salad was definitely made fresh as it's not those small cubes of potatoes but around potato cut into 4 to 5 pieces with some delicious sauce and cream and veg. The cornbread was very pleasing and I should've asked for a slice of butter to add to it and definitely worth every bite.

We went to Yardy for the first time tonight. It is a unique balance of a casual vibe with a passionate chef making delicious food! There were 4 of us and once we looked over the menu and made the difficult decisions on what to try, we headed to the hostess stand to order. We ordered drinks consisting of the Cuba Libre , the "dealers choice" and the lemonade, which were all well made and delicious. As for the food, we ordered the curry snapper, the jerk chicken, chicken & waffles, with sides of cornbread and red beans & rice. The hostess informed us that the food would come to our table as it was ready. First came the cornbread. It was moist and flavorful with a touch of something unique as far as seasoning goes that was delicious. Then came the meals, the chicken & waffles was 3 pieces of chicken over a waffle with syrup and a spicy hot sauce on the side. The chicken and the waffle both had a nice crunch to the exterior and the chicken was cooked perfectly as was the waffle. The difference maker to me was the hot sauce that made the dish unique from other chicken & waffle dishes. The snapper had a great texture to it and the curry was mild but flavorful. The jerk chicken had great flavor, full of the Caribbean flavors I would expect. It had a little heat and a touch of sweet as well with crispy skin loaded with flavor! The succotash that came with the jerk chicken was loaded with different vegetables and was cooked just right and very tasty! The beans and rice were simple and flavorful as a perfect side dish to round out the meal! The chef/owner stopped by our table and asked how the food was. He was happy to see that we had tried different items. He began telling us about a couple of his favorite items that were coming soon and it was easy to tell that he is quite driven by him passion for food and using quality ingredients that speak for themselves! We will certainly be back to try more items and especially when corn season is in full bloom as he has a couple of dishes with fresh, high quality corn that sound fantastic. We are excited for this restaurant to be a staple in the downtown area and look forward to trying new items in the future! The staff were all friendly and efficient and helped to make the evening a great experience. Thank you!

Food cart. My hubs ordered from here and I sampled his meal. He ate all of the chicken, half the potatoes, and all of the cornbread. If he hadn't finished the cornbread I would have. It was delicious and the star. Lots of corn flavor and moist. ( I don't care if you hate that word). The chicken was good. I think it was a little over-cooked. It had a flavor I wasn't crazy about ( maybe coriander), but it is West Indian inspired, so if you like those flavors you might like it better than I did. The potato salad was flavorless with an ick texture. I might eat there again to see if they can cook the chicken any better, or just for the cornbread!

Ordered the double (Fried flatbread and chickpeas) and the chicken meal. Double was good, chicken meal was just okay. Fried chicken had good flavor, but at the end of the day it's still fried chicken. Soup wasn't that good, biscuit was average. I think this place is a little overhyped and they make you verbalize your tip, which is a huge pet peeve of mine. Just turn the screen around!

Amazing fried chicken that is crispy and juicy, it even stayed crispy on the 15 minute drive home. I loved the flavor of the coating too. The doubles were delicious, and I didn't expect to like them much, but the chickpeas and chutney were seasoned well and just had a great flavor and texture with the flatbread. The Carib donuts were good, as was the little biscuit that came with the chicken meal, and the tomato soup. The soup was different than other tomato soups I've had, but it was tasty. My favorite thing I tried though? The pikliz! It was spicy and crunchy. I was debating between the plantains and pikliz, but they had run out of plantains. They told me the pikliz was usually eaten with fried food, and I can see why. It was perfect with the fried chicken, but really I would eat it on everything. It would be delicious on a sandwich, or eaten by itself. Do yourself a favor and go try Yardy! You won't be disappointed!
