Reviews Overview
Most Liked
One standout feature of Vibes Food Box is its curry goat, which many patrons describe as a 'must-try.' The dish is packed with spices that bring warmth and depth to every bite. Customers rave about the juicy jerk chicken, often highlighting the marination process that gives it an unforgettable taste.
Dumplings have received special mention for their lightness and texture; they pair perfectly with the rich gravies served alongside various meals. Another favorite is the pineapple punch, a refreshing beverage that balances the savory dishes. The consistently excellent service complements the food, creating an all-around satisfying dining experience.
Most Disliked
While most feedback is overwhelmingly positive, some diners have pointed out that certain desserts, particularly the carrot cake, can be overly sweet. This has been a turn-off for some, prompting them to stick to the main courses and sides that steal the show.
Occasional delivery delays have been mentioned, frustrating those eager to enjoy their meals at home. However, these issues seem isolated, as the majority of reviews highlight the promptness of service. Overall, these minor grievances do not overshadow the restaurant's solid reputation for quality.

Their dumplings and curry is a match made in heaven. Easy 10/10, could have it everyday. Ordered mix box twice and not been disappointed. The carrot cake was too sweet for me and likely something I won't get again, but the mains are incredible.

I have literally just finished my food from this place and honestly can say. WOW! Ordered the boneless jerk half rice half chips and it did not disappoint. My taste bubs are in heaven. The chicken tasted like it had been marinating in spices for a whole year, the gravy was absolutely insane😍. 10/10 for absolutely everything. My top 3 takeaways I've ever had. Please ignore the bad reviews.

Come here a couple of times every week. Food is consistently good. Nice ‘vibe’ , service great. We try different things; today was the pineapple punch and it’s delicious 🤤 Owner works extremely hard to deliver a good experience and current back room staff help him do just that. Highly recommended

I live in Bury, and used to travel to south Manchester for a Carribbean until my partner discovered this place. The food by far exceeds, and the best dumplings I've ever had. I'm so glad we found Vibes. We've been here about 6 times and never had a bad meal. We've tried the curried goat, curried chicken, brown stew, and jerk chicken. All divine! The guys work hard, are polite and unlike other places, they don't scrimp on the sauce, and if eating in, they ask if you want a top up. I'm not sure why they've received negative reviews. I would highly recommend.
