'Today marks the arrival of the Empire Windrush in Tilbury Docks, Essex, on 22 June 1948, This ship carried 492 Caribbean migrants, many of them veterans of the Second World War. Their contribution to the UK, spanned many areas of society including Public Transport and the Health Service, they also worked in production of steel, coal, iron, and the food sector. Through their hardships and sacrifices we recognise the barriers they broke to enable future generations to succeed. We are both proud and grateful to owe our success to them ''

The Windrush Bar and Kitchen

​Welcome to Windrush Bar and Kitchen (formerly KIMOs) - you have arrived at the right place if you are creatively minded, musically moved or just enjoy great Caribbean food.  Based in the heart of  Stoke Newington, Hackney, we are an entertainment venue and restaurant and our aim is to be a place enjoyed by the community, for families, for everyone. We pay homage to the Windrush generation - without their determination and dedication, many of us wouldn't have the opportunities we have  today... we also wouldn't have the jerk, the roti nor the bakes for sure! 

​"...a buzzing, warm place with great vibes! Food was
tasty and very good portion size. 
Staff were friendly and the music 

was entertaining. I will go back again!"  KL

Use the links  below to reveal all that we do and offer... from our 'What's On?' events page, tempting you with our cocktails and the tastes of the Caribbean straight from our Kitchen.  Remember to check us out on Facebook and Instagram for our current news and posts.  There's something for everyone.
