Origins of The Jamaican Pot

It started with Rose’s love of cooking her homeland Jamaican cuisine for her family, and Bruce’s desire to share his love of Rose’s cooking with everyone. What was once a simple dream of cooking for those around them has turned into something much greater. It didn’t take long for the community to adopt “Mama Rose” due to her generous nature, and they continue coming back for her signature Jerk Chicken and Oxtail meals. Over the years The Jamaican Pot has expanded their menu to accommodate the growing demand for vegetarian and vegan options, such as their veggie plate and vegan burger.

Passion & Presence

Having two locations in the great city of Detroit allows for a greater community reach. This gives The Jamaican pot the opportunity to not only feed Detroit but to also give back in different ways. The most recent initiative during the COVID-19 lockdown, The Jamaican Pot was able to raise money for two local charities that provide goods and services to those in need. The authentic Jamaican food, genuine nature and willingness to lend a helping hand has earned The Jamaican Pot the honorary Spirit of Detroit Award in 2019, certificate of appreciation from The Schaefer 7/8 Lodge Community Association and an award of recognition from Yelp.
