Jerk Yard

A small spot in Deptford Arches, Jerk Yard is a no-nonsense jerk chicken specialist that’s one of our favourite places to get a takeaway lunch in the area. Whether it’s a salad box with jerk chicken—and a cheeky helping of fried plantain—or a smoky jerk chicken wrap that’s always better with extra chicken, it’s a satisfying meal for under a tenner. Although it’s a tight space, there are a couple of indoor tables where you can snack on a beef and cheese patty while you wait for your main meal, and an outdoor hut with enough space for a small group. During the summer months—sorry, days—it’s a great lunchtime hangout.
