I happened to run into him at Canadian Tire today. The smell was amazing! I had the beef burrito and the flavour was incredible! It was a good size meal! He said he’ll be returning to Canadian Tire, so that means I’ll be returning there as well. The people running the stand are extremely friendly! Thank you both so much. Absolutely delicious food!!!!

I visited Tommie’s Jerk for the first time and tried the Jamaican jerk chicken , Mama’s rice and peas. The flavors were amazing! I also had the chicken burrito, and it was absolutely massive. Honestly, it’s so big we couldn’t finish it. The chicken was smoky, juicy, and cooked perfectly. It really hit the spot! They include a spicy sauce on the side, which is perfect for anyone who enjoys heat. I loved it. This place is incredible. The jerk chicken is some of the best I’ve ever had. Full of flavor, spice, and that delicious smoky kick. Plus, the portions are huge, and the drinks are great. Definitely a place worth trying!

We went to their new Langley location on Saturday which is inside the Reggae Market. We got a bunch of different dishes to share. Even before we got the food, we noticed the chef is super friendly! He greets his customers personally and you can see that his customers love him. They refer each other as friends and cousin. It’s such a cosy friendly vibe in such a small spot at the back of the market. From the way the Chef talks, he reminds me of Chris Tucker in Rush Hours. It was our first time there and he took the time to explain his cooking process and how he wants to show his Jamaican heritage through his food while we wait. He is so passionate and it makes me feel excited and happy to try his food. Back to the food, we tried few of his food like the rice & peas, jerk burritos, jerk chicken, and jerk Patties. I love the jerk burritos the best. The jerk meat is so well seasoned and it definitely has a kick to it. It also has a slight Smokey flavor from the charcoal grill. The salsa and strawberry lemonade definitely help cool down the spice. Definitely need to come back for more.

Look on social media for their location like instagram. If its Langley go to the reggae market on 56st and 202A ave. Got their jerk chicken rice and beans bowl. It was well spiced and definitely one of the best jerk chicken ive had in BC. All that was missing was a ting soda. I came right when they opened today and was lucky enough to get the rice and beans.

Great affordable food and drinks! We had the jerk chicken burrito, beef nachos and rice with chicken! All delicious. Loved the pineapple lemonade too! Love they thought outside the bix and came up with a unique casual dining experience. Great smoked meat, flavourful jerk spice (but not too spicey). Super friendly staff! Open Fridays and Saturdays.

A place out of the way but worth going foe the fabulous BBQ jerk chicken and beef. A Jamaican-Mexican fusion outdoor place that is only open Fridays and Saturdays 12 pm to 8 pm. Simply delicious! The jerk chicken or beef is BBQ right in front of you. It is then put in a whole wheat tortilla or taco and a small container of salsa comes with it. The portions are very generous. They are also well known for their Jamaican patties. They offer both beef and chicken patties. Although I have not tried their exotic fruit juices, I will next time. Tommie, the owner is very warm and welcoming!

Authentic Jamaican flavor at its best! Tommie's Jerk delivers the real taste of Jamaica with every bite. The jerk chicken was juicy, spicy, and grilled to perfection—the smoky flavor took me straight to the islands. The staff was welcoming and the vibe was warm and laid-back, just like you'd expect from a true Jamaican kitchen. Highly recommend to anyone craving real Jamaican food!

The first two times I came here they were closed because they sold out early and now I see why. Their food is delicious and they don't skimp. Their burrito was so heavy and loaded with meat that my partner and I shared one and we were stuffed. The meat was delicious, full of flavor and smokey. The only thing better than the food here is Tommy himself who is super friendly and quite entertaining to talk to.
