About this space

Turtle Bay is a Caribbean-style restaurant defined by bold island flavours and a lively, cocktail-focused bar area.

Design: The interior centres on a long bar and open dining floor, punctuated by rattan seating, painted timber posts and colourful panels. Low pendant lamps and a textured tile floor give the room an informal, energetic character.

Features: An in-house bar serves cocktails, beer and wine alongside a kitchen that produces Caribbean small plates and mains, including vegan and vegetarian options. Outdoor seating, takeout and delivery are available. Wheelchair access, accessible toilets and venue Wi‑Fi are provided.

Ideal for: Friends and social groups seeking a relaxed, energetic space for casual seated meals or standing receptions.

What sets it apart: An in-house jerk pit marinates proteins for 24 hours and uses a flame-grill to produce a pronounced smoky char.

What guests say: The venue has a lively atmosphere and attentive, friendly staff.
