Cecil's Restaurant

Kingston, Blue Mountains & the Southeast Coast


A deservedly popular Jamaican restaurant in the centre of Spanish Town and close to the historic sites. Come here for roast and fried chicken, curry goat and roast pork, all served with a hearty helping of rice and peas. If you can't decide, try a combo platter with two mains.
