About Back A Yard Caribbean Takeaway
Caribbean Restaurant in Birmingham
Walking into Back A Yard Caribbean Takeaway in Birmingham felt like stepping onto a bustling street corner in Jamaica. It's a small place, but the energy is infectious – bright, friendly, and definitely all about the food. The photos online show a clean, simple space, focusing more on the takeaway aspect than fine dining, which is perfectly fine.
Their menu is fairly straightforward, packed with classic Jamaican dishes. Jerk chicken is clearly a star, and the reviews mention tasty fried dumplings. I saw a photo of a platter with vibrant rice and peas alongside succulent looking jerk chicken; it looked incredibly appealing. They also seem to offer a good variety of sides and potentially other meat options, but I didn't get a chance to explore the whole menu on this visit.
Back A Yard is perfect for a quick, delicious, and affordable Caribbean meal. It's ideal for grabbing lunch, dinner, or even takeout for a casual get-together with friends. What makes it stand out is that authentic, home-style feel — the kind of place where you feel welcome and the food tastes genuinely homemade. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone craving flavorful Caribbean food without the fuss of a fancy restaurant.

First visit today, been meaning to try for ages and opportunity arose today. 2 portions of jerk chicken and fried dumpling. Really tasted good, chicken was well jerked and moist. Would have preferred a little less sauce next time. The dumplings were flatter than I'm used to but reheated well and were decent. The young sis that served me was pleasant and prompt. Will definitely revisit.
Went to collect 4 x meals through good to go app and was met with abuse from the male chef who initially refused to give me my food because I swiped the collect option, bare in mind this was my first time using the app. Even his staff and another customer as to talk him down, I also had my 4 year old son with me at the time. Very very poor customer service
Ordered two meals from here for myself and my neighbour. Extremely pleasant service and fantastic food, large portions. Authentic, well cooked jamaican cuisine we will most definitely be back. Thankyou
Very expensive and the portions are very small. Filled the plate with rice and gave me 2 pieces of chicken. The other piece that looks like meat is just a big lump of potato like WTH, skimping on the veg. Had to wait nearly 40 mins for two plates of food because they stated they were behind on orders. Not to mention, the lady was answering calls in front of us and basically telling customers she can't deal with this and how she is busy. That was so unprofessional. The food did not taste good and it was even cold. Would not recommend . ever if you want a real jamaican restaurant with good portions and 6 to Full of Flava.
Always see this place as I drive past, hardly ever seen any customers in there but still wanted to try out the food as it’s the closed Caribbean takeaway. Anyway, I decided to order on Uber eats, I ordered a large curried mutton and rice. The app said the food would take around 45 minutes. My ordered actually arrived in 15 mins. The food was old. The mutton hardly had any any gravy to it and the meat was only placed over one side of the rice leaving the other half of the rice dry. The rice was undercooked, hard and dry. The meat did taste nice but it was evident that the food was old, it had just been heated in the microwave and sent with the delivery driver. Very disappointed.
