What is Caribbean Queen Jerk? Caribbean Queen Jerk (frequently celebrated by locals as The New Caribbean Queen Jerk Drum) is an iconic Jamaican takeaway institution located at 3408 Weston Road in Humbermede. Famous across north Toronto for its outdoor oil-drum smokers and authentic Kingston flavors, it serves generous portions of heritage Caribbean comfort food.
Caribbean Queen Jerk Menu & What to Order The star attraction is the pit-smoked Jerk Chicken, kissed by pimento wood smoke and deeply seasoned with scotch bonnet pepper, thyme, and scallions. Equally prized are the crackling, tender jerk pork chunks, tender curry goat, and morning breakfast offerings of ackee and saltfish paired with boiled green bananas, dumplings, and rich cornmeal porridge.
Know Before You Go The shop opens before dawn at 5:30 AM on weekdays to supply early-morning commuters with hot Caribbean porridge and breakfast patties. Expect bustling counter lines during peak lunch and dinner hours.
