Tastee Patrick City

Nestled on Auburn Terrace in the heart of Kingston, Tastee Patrick City is the flagship outlet of Jamaica’s original patty brand, founded by Vincent Chang in 1966. The shop opens Monday through Saturday from 7 AM to 8 PM, offering a bustling yet relaxed atmosphere with bright Caribbean tiles and vintage posters that celebrate six decades of patty perfection. Signature items include the fan‑favorite Beef Patty, a flaky golden crust filled with seasoned beef, and the Weekend Special Chicken Combo Meal, which pairs a spicy chicken patty with a side of sweet plantain. Breakfast seekers can warm up with a steaming bowl of Corn Meal Porridge, a creamy staple that tastes like home. For travelers, the Travel Pack—available in 6‑ or 12‑patty boxes, fresh‑baked or pre‑frozen—can be pre‑ordered 24 hours in advance and is stocked at the airport kiosks as well as this location. The interior features open‑kitchen glass doors, allowing diners to watch the patty dough being rolled and baked in the traditional oven. Friendly staff greet guests in Jamaican patois and English, and free Wi‑Fi keeps you connected while you savor the aroma of fresh spices. Nearby landmarks such as the historic Devon House and the bustling Emancipation Park make the shop a perfect stop for tourists exploring Kingston’s cultural core. Whether you’re a local craving a quick snack or a visitor seeking authentic Jamaican flavor, Tastee Patrick City delivers the tastiest patty experience on the island.
