Delicious food baked fresh. I’ve been going to them for decades & It’s worth the trip. I especially enjoy their patties and coco bread. I even have sent to my friends in other states. They love it. Unfortunately, nothing can be done about the atmosphere/location. If you’re new to the area, watch yourself.

CASH ONLY. Came here early on a Sunday just for beef patties. I had chicken, beef, and veggie. The veggie one was actually the spiciest. It was stuffed cabbage and carrots. Fresh. Not. Really good. 3.50/patty. Coco bread was so soft and delicious. Will def be coming back.

Wow! It has been 29 years since I last visited the area, and of course, I had to stop by the best Jamaican bakery in the Bronx. It still tastes amazing! Thank you for maintaining your incredible quality all these years!

I honestly don’t know where to begin. The lady who helped us was so kind and welcoming. I’ve tried their meatloaf, beef patty, veggie patty, and chicken patty, all of them were AMAZING! The spice fruit bun was fresh and delicious. I would highly recommend ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Kingston Tropical Bakery, located on White Plains Road in the Bronx, is a nice storefront which offers authentic Jamaican baked goods. They offer: chicken, vegetable, beef patties, and fresh breads like Coco Bread, and spice bun with cheese. It’s all made fresh and so delicious. They only take Cash (ATM inside)

My first time trying coco bread with beef patty. Very interesting though to me to have the beef patty inside the coco bread. But it works good together. Their beef patty got good spice in it. Definitely good beef patty to get. They do closed at 4 and line can be long out to the door.

Jamaican Patty Cravings = Satisfied! Came here after work, and let me tell you—worth every bite! This spot is small, just like it looks from the outside, but they know what they’re doing. Quick, easy service had me in and out in no time. I got a chicken patty and a beef patty—both hot, fresh, and packed with flavor. Added coco bread because that’s the only way to do it right. After this meal, I was ready for a nap but had no regrets. Things to note: Cash only Parking is rough They only carry chicken, beef, and veggie patties—so plan accordingly!
