This place is one of the best in Phoenix. Their food is amazing and there's options for anyone, even people who don't like seafood. Also, cocktails from the time bar are A+.

One of the better dining experience I've had recently. Our waiter, Isaac, was very knowledgeable about the menu and cocktail list and gave excellent pairing recommendations. Everything my girlfriend and I had was exquisite. The food is Caribbean inspired and a lot of it is locally sourced, which I appreciate. The cocktails are designed to be paired with the food, which was the cheery on top for me. The prices are reasonable and the dining room has a nice ambiance.

Best Rum drinks I've had anywhere along my travels! Creative combinations, excellent presentations and a wonderful experience for the taste buds!! 🍸🍹💜 Staff were professional and helpful. My only two comments of improvement - the staff could be a bit friendlier - would've been nice to know about the hidden patio/smoke lounge out back before our last drink ;)

As a cigar smoker and fine food enthusiast this place meets all my needs. The food is exceptional, the drink selection is top shelf. No matter what the punch special is of the night order it. Then finish it off with a cigar and drink on the back patio. Better yet come in directly to the back patio grab a cigar and drink then eat dinner and grab another cigar!

In preparation for my short visit to Phoenix I was researching various dinner options. I came across the Breadfruit & Rum Bar and decided it was worth taking a shot. I wasn't disappointed - the food was flatout amazing and of great quality! I had the rum-glazed shrimp on roti bread along with a jamaican Jerk Chicken Salad - mouthwatering to say the least! Of course, as the name suggests they have a huge selection of Rum. If you're looking for the mainstream Bacardi & Coke this might not be the right place for you. If however you appreciate the "real" rum than this is a must-visit for you. The barkeeper is very friendly and knowledgible and will give you a full tour through the world of rum if you're interested. The mellow Reggae tunes playing from the stereo round out the Carribean feeling in desert surroundings. Two thumbs up!

Great little find in downtown Phoenix where there is little surrounding the nice hotels. This restaurant has a Jamaican feel. The service is knowledgable and attentive. They have hundreds of rum liquor and excellent food. The decor is cozy, with in and outdoor seating. They give you a postcard to mail anywhere in the U.S. Very thoughtful, quality dinning.

This was some of the best food I've ever had. Prices were fare, service was good and informative, and I would still come back here if those things weren't true because the food and drinks were that good. I had a mojito (that was to die for) and my boyfriend had a rum old fashioned (since he usually gets a whiskey old fashion, but is considering changing his signature cocktail to this after today). To eat, we shared the prawns, an apple and coconut?? Soup of the day and also the slow braised pork dish. All were amazing and we were surprised that the soup was actually the star of them all if there even was a differentiating line of goodness between them all. We will be back!!

A rum bar and upscale Jamaican restaurant, this was a good experience. Cons: -Small venue that was popular; reservations highly recommended if you want a table -Noisy! There is no real sound dampening. At half full it was difficult to converse. When full, it was implausible. I recommend reserving an outdoor table if the weather permits. Pros: -Excellent food with good plating, balance of flavors, and focus on sourcing. -Excellent drinks and cocktails. Don't bother with beer or wine and order a mixed drink. -Friendly, attentive, and polite service.

I’m proud of the owner of this establishment the presentation the taste the knowledgeable staff I have no complaints except that there isn’t one in LA!

It's very quaint, hidden, and a very romantic ambiance and feel. I don't mind spending money on good food, but it's definitely pricey. My appetizer, the sea scallops, were heaven on earth, and I truly didn't want the experience to end. I got the punch bowl , an alcoholic drink. My server, Vince described the drink perfectly; fruity, strong, and crisp and it was perfect with my appetizer. Dinner was the curried goat, a heavenly experience. The portion was as much as I'd hoped. I say "hoped" because high-end cuisine NEVER gives large portions. The chef is amazing! Would I go back? It was a delicious, expensive, experience, I paid over $100.00 for my meal, and I was solo. It was a nice night out, but for that price, I expect more food. I work hard for my money.

What a cool place!!! Bar tender was super helpful with spotting drinks and giving suggestions. Drinks were bomb and had an appetizer that was delicious. Also got to send a post card from them. Pretty neat thing to do.

Good place to have Jamaican jerk chicken. I had delicious jerk chicken that was spicy and served with rice. It was good and tasty. Service was a bit slow but, will always go back for the jerk chicken.

This was our first time here. My aunt took me out to dinner before the Lana Del Rey concert a celebration for my birthday and Christmas gift. We had many restaurants to choose from. When I saw this place on Google search the pictures got us. The ambiance is so quite and we sat outside beautiful weather. Our waiter was nice and very knowledgeable on Jamaican food. We started with small plates/ appetizers I wish they were bigger portions because the scallops were amazing. Jerk chicken salad was great wish just a bit more flavor. Overall excellent.
Rob Benavidez
The food was outstanding and the waitstaff very attentive and knowledgeable. The staff took the time to describe the meals and provide advice about the menus. Ordered the jerked pork and it was simply the best. Plenty of rum!!! Toped it all off with one hell of an old fashioned and a cigar out back. Thank you for the experience.

It shoulduld have been 4.5 stars, because the kitchen was unable to accommodate my food allery. Which I found odd because I asked for no tomatoes in a curry dish. I got the clams instead and they were delicious as were the peppered shirmp and rum cream. But if you're a chef firing a dish it isn't an unreasonable request to not put in a spoonful of tomatoes and bell peppers into the sauce. There is definitely an asterisk next to the five stars.
Allison Gladkowski
Amazing restaurant. Our server made fantastic food and drink recommendations. He knew the menu very well and the food wowed us! Make sure you get the spicy shrimp appetizer!

Excellent service, good food and the drinks will definitely leave u with a smile on your face. As a Jamaican alot of these dishes and drinks where foreign to me but definitely worth trying and appreciating.

I found this place a few years back but just never made it in. Last night we decided to celebrate our 28th anniversary here. I'm so glad with my choice. Everything we ordered last night was great. I ordered the jerk pork over polenta... prefect! Pepper shrimp a must try, drink menu phenominal! I tried almost everything everyone ordered. We're all family! The mojito on point, punch rum bowl of the day... yum! Pina colada, Bootleg Smitty, rum old fashion all very good. Of course we tried a rum flight (Spanish). We started in the dining area due to a few unforeseeable mishaps we moved our party of 6 outside to the front patio for or meal. Ended the night in the back patio with our rum flight and cigar. Thank you so vey much for the amazing and unforgettable 1st time experience. Our server by the way was pretty awesome hats off to you Isaac G. We were definitely movers last night and you kept up with us all. Until next time...

Breadfruit and Rum Bar is one of my favorite restaurants/bars in downtown Phoenix. Their food is always great, I can't find food like it anywhere else in the Valley. I strongly recommend to have the scallops; best scallops I've had. Before coming to Rum Bar, thought I didn't like rum, but the bartenders helped me realize that rum is much more complex than just Bacardi. I've been regularly coming to Breadfruit and Rum Bar for about 2 months now, and they never disappoint.

What an exceptional time spent at the breadfruit rum bar!!! Christian our waitress was nothing less than amazing with her warm welcome to us newbies and knowledge on the menu. She totally exceeded my expectations and she is the definition of hospitality! The food/drinks were so delicious, I continued ordering off the menu after every plate because it was so tasty 😋 overall my time spent there deserves a 10 star but five will have to do! Keep up the great work see you all again very soon!!!

Best cocktails and food of any place I've been downtown...great atmosphere...great music...fabulous food that is always fresh, interesting, and absolutely delicious. The Appleton Rum seared scallops are unbelievable and my favorite item I've tried. The Shim Sham cocktail is a seasonal drink and is so tasty with a hint of nutmeg that compliments the Rum and other ingredients just perfectly!!!

From the Fish Tea soup to the jerk pork, everything burst with flavor! My husband and I live in San Diego, California and went to Phoenix to see the diamondbacks play. This is in my top 5 restaurants ever! We will definitely be back! Btw, I'm not a big soup fan and I could've had this soup as my meal and been completely satisfied!! The service was great, the decor perfect and our server was warm, charming with great sense of humor. Loved it, a magical dining experience!

It was a perfect spot for cozy dinner ! We were served food really fast . And the food was great !the only problem was the loud music which we got used to after sometime
Crystal Behmetuik
Such a hidden gem. If you haven't enjoyed this experience, don't even think about it, just do it! You won't regret it. ���

Flavors are unbelievable in both food and drink. Sit at the bar for a before or after dinner drink and watch the masters make the drinks. A great show.
Park Howell
Just had dinner there last night. Marvelous. The Jamaican cuisine is second to none, and how can you argue with that rum bar?
Matthew Good
Fuck this place. They’re a “family” business. Family doesn’t give you an excuse to completely disregard customers. Learn how to be a business.
Mike Logan
This place is amazing. Great food, service, and all the rum you could ask for.
