Since the first pot

Our Story

Food Nice Kitchen

Food Nice began at home, feeding family and friends who kept coming back for one more plate. Word travelled the way it always does in South East London — through people telling people.

Today we cook out of Brockley every Friday and Saturday. Oxtail takes hours because it should. Jerk chicken gets marinated the night before because that's the only way it tastes right. Nothing is rushed and nothing is faked.

We're not a chain and we're not trying to be. We're a family kitchen serving real yard food to our community.

What We Cook With

Soul

Cooking that carries feeling — you can taste when food is made with care.

Flavour

Marinades left overnight, scotch bonnet respected, pimento in everything.

Family

Recipes handed down and cooked the way they were taught to us.

Culture

A plate of Jamaica, served with the music and the warmth that goes with it.

Comfort

Portions that fill you and flavours that settle you.

Love

The one ingredient we never run out of.
