I went and got food with my mom for my entire family. My wife loved the food so much she went back just to complement the food because it was that amazing. Patty's were prefect, jerk chicken was great, and the routine exceeded our expectations. Over all love the food.

Was craving a stuffed patty and they were able to make me one, and she added tomatoes to it for me! The thing probably weighed about 5lbs and hit the spot for sure. This will be my go to for stuffed patties from now on.

The food was absolutely phenomenal. The jerk chicken was perfectly seasoned and had just the right amount of spice, paired beautifully with the Jamaican beef patty and vegetables. The soup was absolutely delicious. Every bite was a celebration of authentic Caribbean flavours. Beyond the amazing food, the service was top-notch. The staff went above and beyond to ensure my experience was enjoyable, making me feel right at home. If you’re looking for delicious food and exceptional service, Lioness Jerk Café is the place to go. I can’t wait to return and try more from their menu!

The patties are the best I've had, and there's been many. My daughter and I devoured them before we got home for dinner from the a Erin Farmers Market. I bought the jerk wet rub, which I'm excited to use this weekend. I will definitely be buying the precooked meals and other. Fair play to you Lioness Jerk, I'm a fan and wish you 110% success.

Very welcoming from the minute you step in the door. I had already sampled the home made meat patty at the erin farmers market and couldn't wait to get to the actual restaurant. Excellent food, well prepared and served by the friendliest staff. I will definitely return. Seating is limited to one Cafe table so plan on takeout

Discovered Lioness Jerk at the Orangeville Farmers Market, and I instantly fell in love with their beef patties! The owner is such a lovely lady, and I always enjoy chatting with her. The food here is made with love, and I’m so happy they opened a location. My go-to order is the jerk chicken poutine, and it’s simply amazing! Highly recommend checking this place out!!
