Jamaican Patty Company to open in Covent Garden

13 February 2014

The former Spud unit on New Row in Covent Garden, is now home to a new food operation Jamaica Patty Company.

The 510 sq ft unit is the first outlet for the new meat patty operation which has been set up by Andrew Roberts a former partner at law firm Travers Smith, and is the brainchild of Jamaica-born Theresa Roberts.

Opening in mid-March will have a contemporary but authentic approach to Jamaican patties, which will be freshly baked in store every day, with a variety of deliciously spicy fillings including jerk chicken, prawn, curried goat and saltfish and ackee. JPC will also be delivering a fantastic selection of complementary Jamaican culinary delights throughout the day from a menu created by multi-award winning Jamaican chef Collin Brown.

Spud continues to operate from its outlet in Leadenhall Market in The City.

Emma Flathers of DCL who assigned the lease, said: “Shaftesbury works hard to curate an exciting and vibrant tenant mix across all its London Villages. As its sole leisure adviser, we were appointed by Spud to find a new operator that complemented and enhanced the existing offer. Jamaica Patty Company is an extremely exciting new operation and, we believe, will be the perfect addition to the catering offer in this part of Covent Garden.”
