    My girlfriend and I go here quite often and the customer service is amazing. Within a couple weeks the gentleman had memorized our morning drink order and makes it amazingly and with consistency every time. The breakfast sandwiches and regular lunch menu are both phenomenal, and the Caribbean hot table is absolutely to die for, I could eat the rotis every day and never tire of them, they are so flavourful and hearty, easily the best I have ever had and I have tried every place in the Barrie area and then some. Thank you to all the staff for such a wonderful restaurant and experience, if I could offer more than five stars I would.

    Everything is delicious and René and Tracy are extremely welcoming. Hot table Caribbean food is mouth watering. Saturday is Trini Doubles day. Best day ever. Kawartha Dairy ice cream is a great finish OR any other treats from the dessert counter. Dirty Chai Latte is my fave for a coffee drink. Crazy Monkey is the best smoothie ever. Southeast Barrie. Ya gotta eat here!

    Stopped in recently for some doubles, but couldn’t resist also buying a curry chicken roti for lunch. The roti was so fresh and the curry chicken was delicious with large chunks of chicken and potatoes. The doubles were also amazing, lots of flavour and soft baras. They tasted just as good leftover as they did fresh and held up well in the packaging. Definitely will be back! Creative Bean also has a huge menu and there’s definitely something everyone would enjoy.

    This has to be one of the best Caribbean restaurants out there, if not the best. The owners are personally in the restaurant. They are so nice, warm and inviting. The food is so good. I've had the Curry chicken and Roti, as well as the Chickpeas and Roti. The doubles on the weekend are amazing, too. The portions are great; the pepper sauce is really tasty but extremely hot caution ⚠️. Hint of advice order in advance for doubles and Roti because there made to order. Thanks Tracy and Renée for an amazing experience I'll be sure to visit at least 3 to 4 times a week. On my lazy cooking days. Highly recommended 👌 👍 👏 💯

    The employees are amazing! I love to get the jerk chicken and rice, and their coffee is very good. I’ll definitely go again

    Called them 3 minutes before closing yesterday and they did not turn us away but rather stayed open an extra 1/2 hour to prepare us 5 delicious Roti. The food was amazing. The service was next level awesomeness!

    Found Tracy's Hot Table from TikTok and decided to try it out also being from Trinidadian heritage. Great experience! Fast and friendly service. Happened to meet Tracy and she is awesome. Food is delicious and the flavours are typical of 🇹🇹 just like my mother used to make. Definitely a must try.

    Great service and delicious food. You can tell the operators take pride in their product. I highly recommend trying the stuffed Pattie. They do it different! Also highly recommend the jerk chicken roti if you're hungry, it's enough for two.

    Had the veggie and chicken roti. Best we've had in years!! Highly recommend, and the service was awesome!

    Best Roti in Barrie! I didn't know there was a Caribbean place in the area. I've tried the Curry Chicken, Jerk Chicken and the Curry Goat. All excellent! It appears Paratha is the only shell option. Looking forward to trying the Doubles on Saturday.

  • 5/5 Alana C. 1 year ago on Google
    I've been there twice. The Roti is good served with paratha. The doubles are soooo good...But, those jerk stuffed patties are phenomenal. It's like a jerk chicken dinner in your hand! Great Job! Please have them available daily?!

  • 5/5 Renée R. 2 years ago on Google
    Went to Creative Bean today on impulse with my daughter... SO IMPRESSED. We had one of the best curry chicken roti wraps we've ever had. Their fresh made paratha alone is perfection. The curry chicken was divine. Customer service, not just to us but to the customers walking in was so warm and friendly, personal and inviting. The cafe itself is quaint, sweet and immaculate. Will definitely be revisiting. Being of Jamaican descent, I was super happy to find this around the corner from home.

    They didn't have much options available as their supplies are delayed. However, the curry chicken was delicious. Would've, preferred it on rice instead of a roti, but there was no rice available. Boyfriend got black coffee, it was alright. Not the best, but not bad. Overall, would come back to try the other food!

    Tracy and Renee are awesome. Their service is fast and they treat you like family! Also their Trinidadian doubles are amazing!

    Big shout-out to the owners for going out of their way by adding decaf option for ubereats when I asked if they had a decaf option. I ordered delivery from here and for a second I was worried about packaging since I ordered several drinks and entrees. Everything was packed with care and it all came in one piece! I loved the triple decker, chunky monkey smoothie and grilled cheese but I think the chocolate chip cookies were the best part of the entire meal. The pun written on my coffee definitely deserves a 5 star as well 😊

  • 5/5 Chris R. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing shop owned by a kind, lovely family. Try their hot table during the week for amazing jerk chicken mac n' cheese and roti. Stuffed patty sandwiches are a perfect lunch/dinner item and the doubles on Saturday are the best I've ever had. Will continue to make regular visits and vouch that it is always worth a stop.

  • 5/5 Matt S. 1 year ago on Google
    Ok went here today for the first time and fresh roti with some pretty good jerk chicken. Good amount of heat but not to much so you still have lots of flavor. Generous serving more then I could eat. Gotta say I was surprised definitely exceeded my expectations. Thank you I will definitely return!

  • 5/5 Brad B. 1 year ago on Google
    Went for the first time last week! Great customer service and suggestions from the owners and the food was absolutely delicious. We had the jerk chicken roti and island mac & cheese, as well as two drinks. We left with some food to snack on before dinner and can't wait to go back.

👍👍 A couple changes since the last time I was at an East Side Mario's, one of which is that they don't bring out the big bowl of salad anymore, they use small individual bowls.. not a big deal and it makes sense for less waste, but definitely more running for the servers.

👍👍 My first visit to this restaurant. By far the best restaurant I have ever been in Canada. I Ordered VEGGILANTE PIE as I am vegetarian and trust me pizza was so fresh and good. Staff was very friendly. Place was clean. Please add oregano in your extras with pizza as it adds more flavour to pizzas....
