About Turtle Bay Crawley
Welcome to Turtle Bay Crawley!
Jerk... Rum.. Reggae....
Caribbean eating and drinking... it’s at the heart and soul of the Caribbean Island culture and we, here at Turtle Bay, aim to capture the essence of this way of life and the great food that evolves here. We are a Caribbean restaurant serving authentic great tasting Caribbean style food from Aruba to Saint Lucia. You can also taste our fantastic rum based cocktails and experience friendly service which we hope leaves you wanting to come back to our bay again and again.
Our beach bar and street food dining brings the Caribbean Tropics to this Sussex market town.
Turtle Bay is in the heart of Crawley’s bustling shopping district, the perfect stop off after a hard day of shopping, enjoy refreshing cocktails and delicious cutters.
Availability
Great time had
Slightly pricey for what you get but still enjoyed the evening
It would be a better atmosphere if you played Caribbean music to create an authentic experience rather than the same dance that other venues around you play.
I had reserved a table here to celebrate my leaving party and to be honest it couldn't have been better then turtle bay to celebrate. Staff and the service is amazing may god bless each and everyone of you for all your hard work. Kind Regards Jenny Augusta Fernandes
First visit to eat at Turtle bay and very impressed - food was amazing. Love the level of spice and the variety available. Cocktails were great and happy hour helped on cost!
Our table was a bit of the way and a little cramped but food and service great
Found glass in one of our friends drink which is extremely dangerous. The manager really wasn't that bothered about it and just complained we was asking for discount. Luckily it done no damage and he completely missed our point that it should never ever of happend and we are lucky he didn't swallow it. He offered us a fair discount in the end but asked we left the restaurant. Which is crazy! Food drink was outstanding just shame you have a manager who doesn't care about customer welfare or safety. Accidents happen apologises are needed!
Cocktails are watered down. Food was tasteless Very disappointed
Great evening, great atmosphere!
Great food. Not as spicy as it was when first went but still good food. Curry sizes could be a little bigger as not enough for a man but nice flavours
Good is very nice if a little on the pricey side. Just missing some guiness punch 😎
It was a shame that a dessert we all wanted wasn't available (carribian chocolate pot) and also no half and half non alcoholic drinks were available. The food we had was delightfull and plenty of it, cooked really well and tasted amazing! My only other criticism was a large service charge added to our bill without asking if we wanted to give a tip.
Our waitress was fantastic. Annoyingly I can’t remember her name but she was great with the party and with my 2 year old daughter
Bent over backwards to make my son's 21st fab evening :)
It was our 1st visit to Turtle Bay.. the starter was tasty but the main just average & not very big! The flavours were ok but not anything ‘Wow’ .. service was good & the interior was good.. would I visit again.. probably not as it was very pricey for what it actually was!
Really nice evening
Great evening great service
Almost no point in booking a table as we had to wait for the table to be set and made ready. Previously without a booking the wait was the same. Otherwise the food was excellent and the vibe is also exactly what you’d expect.
Dined here for Valentines and were less than impressed. I had ordered the Jerk steak from the set menu which came out cold. By the time I received my replacement, my husband had finished his meal and it was very rare (I ordered it medium rare). I said to the server, the kitchen are clearly struggling tonight so would prefer if they removed my steak from the bill which they did. I would return to turtle bay but not for a few months....
Excellent service, I don't know the waitresses name but she was brilliant!
Can I just say a huge thank you to the chef who waited for us as we were a few minutes late.

We had a lovely time, although restaurant was fairly quiet to start with, we had a very attentive waitress, food arrived promptly and was delicious and hot. The cocktails on buy one get one free we're a real bargain. Would definitely recommend. Lovely relaxed atmosphere.
We were pretty disappointed on arrival for my birthday, the staff didn't seem to expect us even though we'd booked a table and they certainly hadn't set anything up for us. We were told to buy a drink at the bar while we waited, we didn't really have any choice seeing as we waited over half an hour for our pre booked table. I went back to ask what was going on and were told that another table hadn't finished yet so we had to wait. No apology and no customer service to keep us happy in the meantime. When we were finally seated the host just walked away and I told him I wasn't very happy about this as we were celebrating my friends birthday and were all starving and would be good if they could offer us something he said ok and walked away. Later after asking again we were given a free drink but to be honest the service was so bad I wouldn't rush back. This used to be my favourite restaurant and I was appalled by the way we were just left without an apology or any type of customer service to make us feel better about the situation.
Staff we’re having issues taking orders with the devices. This slowed down them service and was extremely frustrating for your staff
