Take Out Restaurant
Always enjoy grabbing lunch or a quick and easy dinner at the Underground Kitchen! The service is always quick and pleasant, and they make amazing food - I've never had a bad experience there. My go-to is the chicken roti, but I've been up and down their menu and never been disappointed. A local gem.
Cabbage soup is very yummy!!! 😋 my chicken patty tasted like a gingerbread cookie lol so not a big fan of that. But, want to try the roti sometime as it has good reviews.
The best...all of it! Flavours are amazing, food is always fresh and then there's the chef, Matt who is a gem. Just go, you won't be sorry.
An awesome local gem off the beaten track! Great food! Great friendly service! Great portions that are fresh! Jerk Chicken is excellent as is the Shrimp Curry! Authentic Jamaican Patties vegetarian and chicken delicious! Take-out Monday - Friday Noon until 7:00PM Check it out! You won’t be disappointed!
Lovely little place that might be the best Carib-inspired food ... in Fergus. Staff are really friendly, and the location is great to sit by rushing water and eat! Get the curry chicken Roti as it's safe and OK, but avoid the Patties (way salty) and Goat (sorta bland, cooked too quickly, and not great). Ting + Roti is a great lunch!
Been debating trying this place for a few months and I am glad I did! Got the paneer roti today (medium spice). So delicious and not to mention reasonably priced. I did not have to wait long and the food was fresh. Friendly atmosphere. (flash used in picture) highly recommend 🙂
Edit June 2024 came and tried Cyrry goat for the 1st time and definitely loved it over rice picked up another jar of chutney this time Def worth every penny and cheap for the amount of food you get ......... Tried this Local place today (Friday) and got a chicken roti wish I took a pic but I was too hungry to think of that. Huge portion very filling will Definitely be back with the kids. On a side note the girl in front of me didn't have enough for a patty (maybe $1 short) and without any hesitation the owners (I think) said no problem they gave here one for what she had. **Edit I have since returned and tried the patties, flakey and unique taste to them awesome and try the chutney and hot sauce 10/10 The pic is of the hot sauce I picked up this visit and trust me it is worth it with anything from there! Support Local Shops like this Thanks
The vegan option on the day of our visit was a flavourful rice / channa / vegetable mix that could have (also) been wrapped in roti skin, was tasty, and came with a delicious chutney. Service was prompt and friendly. We look forward to returning.
Best Jerk chicken !!!
Definitely the best takeout place in town with the kindest staff, recommend everything especially homemade jamaican pattys Food
best restaurant in fergus! garlicky lentil soup is unbelievably delicious
Food is so delicious & fast. Friendly owners too. We can t wait to be back!
This was my first time going. You ve got a repeat customer. The jerk chicken was absolutely amazing!! The coleslaw is the best I ve ever had.
Love this place, incredible chutney and great service. Best restaurant in town!
Fantastic food and service, one of the best restaurants in and around Guelph.
Top tier. Loved the food here. Owner is awesome!
This place is a gem. The food is delicious, fairly priced and the proprietors are extremely friendly and nice.
Restaurant clean and tidy. Service and food very good. Nice place to visit.
In my opinion, by far the best takeout option in the area, both for quality and value. A small, consistent menu that that always tastes excellent.
Had the chicken roti there for the first time. Yumm I will be going back. So good!
Had the Jerk chicken lunch special, lots of coleslaw and rice, small piece of chicken. Unfortunately I thought the chicken lacked flavour. Not traditional Jamaican Jerk chicken.
Great atmosphere and amazing flavorful food !! Jerk chicken with rice n beanswss spectacular Food
Love it here. Come on my lunch often Ask for the Jen Special Food : 5/5
This is a special eatery.. The owners are consummate pros in the food prep business... Very positive vibe combined with the entirely great tasting food. Barry Toronto Oct 2023 Im not a foodie.......i do like to eat though.....how much do i like to eat?...If i like the food....like i like the food at the Underground Kitchen, i will travel to get it...in this case ...from Allan Road/401 to Fergus round trip 275kl...For the food, the people(vibe) the Grand River and the ride. Ive eaten at many places on the planet. For me: THERES NO PLACE LIKE THIS PLACE. Like i said on Oct 2023 Consummate pros in the food prep business. Barry Feb, 2024 Parking: never had a problem finding parking....from the street approx. 150 steps...and from the parking lot, way fewer steps.
The best!!
Fully obsessed. Best food, BEST service. You truly cannot beat this hidden gem. Parking downtown in general sucks, but you figure it out in order to get Underground Kitchen. Not their fault!
Great vegetarian options and very delicious food!
Tried this place for the first time out of a recommendation. My only complaint would be the portion size are very large and more like two meals. Lol Highly recommend this place. Parking can be a little bit tight. However, they have a pick up area a discovered right beside the restaurant entrance which is off the Main Street.
Best food spot in Fergus!
Nice people and good flavor in their Roti but WAY too many potatoes.
Incredible place! Please go try it. The chutney is to die for!
Yum! Do it. The chutney alone is pretty special. I had the paneer. The mini was plenty of food. I had the cabbage soup, too. Soul food from another land.
Ordered for lunch for the first time today. Had never had roti before, but wanted to try for a while! We ordered the Paneer Makhani and Chicken and both were absolutely delicious. Fresh food with excellent flavours! Portions were huge and plenty of paneer and chicken - some places skimp of the proteins but not here. Will definitely order again.
Am I ever glad I found this place. 10/10. Will be back. Chicken roti and a patty
Delicious food!
Great food, great people. Love getting a take out from here.
Ah! The goat dinner on Wednesday was awesome, tasty n filling with leftovers for Thurs lunch Ill be back for more . I suggest you all should try it..
Tasty food
Its the best Roti Ive had since moving out of Toronto.
Wow first time trying this place . I ve tried plenty of this type of food and this is delicious
Great taste and huge portion
Probably the best Ive ever had! Glad to find this gem today!
Underground Kitchen is excellent, the owner is friendly and passionate about his food and the food quality is fabulous. Lucky to have such a great spot here in Fergus... Love it!!
The food here is just phenomenal! The Paneer Roti is easily one of my favourite meals! Jen and Matt are so friendly and have such a welcoming atmosphere. Underground Kitchen is truly a gem in Fergus!
So amazing. Finally tried Underground Kitchen after many years of wondering. Shared Chicken Roti, jerk chicken and Jamaican patties with the wife. Everything was outstanding and roll be going back to get more awesome good. Keep up the great work.
Best deal in town!
Love this place ! Great food as always !
Tried their tuesday special, the curry chicken meatball. Food was excellent, chutney was over the top! Great friendly service. Good serving portions and reasonable cost!
Fergus best little restaurant. Easy to grab a roti and sit by the river to enjoy. Love their food!
Excellent roti
Very delicious homemade food and very friendly, thanks a lot
Owners are very very nice. Food is great. I would give more than the five allowed.
yum...ate here today and well be back for sure, authentic food made with care...you gotta eat here!
Delicious!!! Very friendly, excellent roti and incredible jerk chicken. The best secret spot in Fergus.
Best lunch in Fergus, open until 7 for dinner!
Fergus is very lucky to have amazing Trini style roti and eats right in town. To get the same quality weve only found it in Scarborough.
Food is always great here. Friendly owners.
Delicious soul food, and so full of flavour. I will definitely be going back!
Last time I had such a great chicken roti I was living in the Caribbean ... good job chef!
Curry Chicken Roti !! . Thank you Matt !!
Delicious roti. Lots of flavor, great spices. Owner s a nice guy who shared some good information with me about his Square terminal.
Great food, staff are super friendly. I had to check the kitchen a number of years ago- spotless!
Delicious, quality food at a great price! Quick and friendly service guaranteed! :)
Delicious and excellent food with generous portions. And a friendly service to go with
Love the Chicken Roti. Great staff.
Hands down our favourite place to order food from in the Fergus-Elora area. Anything we have had (which is nearly the entire menu) we have LOVED. But I have to say my ultimate fav is the meatball special on Tuesdays. And albeit, it isnt always about the deal, but man, we can feed our young family of 5 for not a lot of $$, including Matts delectable brownies for dessert- we split them in two because they are huge. I have no idea how they do it, but it is truly affordable made-from-skratch food that you cant find anywhere else. Oh yeah, and the staff, who work crazy hard......they are AMAZING people who Id be happy to support anytime!
Food prep person not wearing a mask. workers in kitchen not maintaining a safe distance. Food not great ! vegetarian roti was 90% potato in huge pieces, very little chick pea and very little sauce. spicing very simple
Lovely family-run restaurant! Its for sure one of our regular go-tos for healthy take-out. Great tasting food, freshly prepared with quality ingredients at a great price. Its nicely spiced and you can add extra heat if thats your jam. The goat curry is definitely a favourite! Oh, and dont miss out on those Jamaican patties... Its especially important to support your local community during these difficult times as its hard enough on small businesses. So if its a Thursday: go get your jerk on! Chicken that is...
Best food in the area! I rarely Miss jerk chicken Thursdays. The rotis and samosas are also my favorites. The whole staff are awesome and incredibly friendly. Highly recommend.
Their roti is delicious and I love that there is vegetarian options.
Delicious, authentic-tasting roti from friendly staff
Love the Chicken Roti and the Paneer and the friendly service! A huge family favourite.
Curry goat was outstanding and great value. Its worth the drive!
Delicious food. Flavors of the food here are unreal, its a must try and retry and retry and retry! Hidden gem.
Best roti!!!!!!
My family and I ordered from the Underground Kitchen for the first time and it will be our last. We ordered the chicken roti and were disappointed to find that each of our roti amounted to little more than dough wrapped around large chunks of spiced potatoes. The chicken in the chicken roti came in the form of the odd small piece of shredded chicken. At first, we thought that perhaps we had received the vegetarian version of the dish but after cutting into the dough and spreading the filling out, we did locate a few small pieces of shredded chicken. That was it: a handful of pieces of shredded chicken amidst chunks and chunks of rather blandly seasoned potatoes. Throughly disappointing.
My wife and I visit Underground Kitchen every week for their jerk chicken and a chicken roti. It has been a five-star experience each and every time. The food is delicious to say the least and staff/owners are so friendly! Thanks for a great experience!
Good balance of spices, hot sauce on the side was good to cut the richness of the meat. Great flavour.
We drive an hour out of town to come for the Roti !!
This is an unpretentious place that serves high quality food. The menu is simple. The food is cooked with the soul. It feels hearty. I have visited this place numerous times when I was in the area. Food has always been consistent. I had the Chicken Roti each time. Would like to try other options in the menu but the Chicken Roti is too good to miss! The owner is very nice and friendly. Highly recommended.
Yum! We love the chicken roti and Jamaican patties!
Well priced, tasty food. Perfect for the cold rainy days. Dont Be a Jerk Thursday is especially good
My daughters favourite restaurant. I especially love the jerk chicken on Thursdays, while my kids love the chicken roti any night of the week. Such great people, and such a great little gem in our community.
What a fantastic treat. Did a restaurant food tour with some friends. had to stop here for chicken roti. Matt prepared a sample size for our group of 8 and it was Delish! We will be back again soon!
I cant even last a week without a Roti from this place! Would highly recommend!!
Chicken roti is the best fix on a cold day !
Amazing food at a super reasonable price. Highly recommend the Wednesday & Thursday specials! (Goat curry and jerk chicken respectively)
Best Roti around, by far.
Some of the best food in Fergus!
Best place in town to get your lunch or dinner!
We had the goat which was delicious and a chicken roti that was also great. A job well done Matt.
Absolutely Delicious! Cant wait to come back. We thoroughly enjoyed our Jerk Chicken.
Matt and his family make amazing food here. Awesome service and prices as well.
Amazing food! Tried it for the first time today and I will most definitely be coming back :) Wonderful service and pricing as well! You guys rock!
You want amazing Caribbean food? Look no further. This place will have you begging for more. Would put more stars if i could!
Phenomenal Roti! Outstanding patties! And the wife loves the jerk chicken which they only do on thursdays but its absolutely worth the wait! Absolutely blown away to get such amazing Jamaican food in Fergus! Definitely recommended... love to see a little more culture come to town!
Wow what a roti
This place is awesome! The food is always great and the service is always just as good. The owners are really lovely people. This is a fantastic spot for lunch or dinner! Also, they make the best brownies I have ever had.
Closes basically right at dinner time.. would be better if they stayed open until at least 8pm.
AMAZING FOOD AND CUSTOMER SERVICE !
This place is streets ahead. Stopped in for my very first visit after a friend recommended them. I was so glad I did. The jerk chicken was delicious, but let me tell you... My partner had the chicken roti and let me try a bite. He didnt have that roti long. I cant wait to try everything.
One of the best in Fergus, good food, service and fast! Very nice owner & the deserts are great too.
LOVE this place! The owner is always so incredibly friendly and great to chat with! Food is at such a great price and always a 10/10! We will be back again and again! I just wish they were open a little later!
Love the Jerk chicken! Great price and service!
Very good food, great value. Thanks
Delicious food great service and good price. Theres a lovely seating area by a waterfall couldnt ask for more!
Great Food
Excellent food !
So good. Have been here probably 50 times. If your a newbe be careful with the spice it will burn your face off. Always tastes great.
Excellent portions and Value. Tasty, friendly service. That chutney! You need to bottle it!! To die for. Thank you for a wonderful lunch. Coleslaw was on point.
I ordered the chicken roti passing through Fergus and wow. Absolutely delicious and not heavy, oily or saturated in sauce. I highly recommend Underground Kitchen and will make it a future destination!
Wow! It tastes as great as smells. Not oily and the spices were aromatic (likely ground fresh and heated correctly). Increase your prices. Spice level is acceptable for someone who cant handle spice, yet they will kick it up a notch for those spice lover.
This place is the bees knees
AMAZING! Owners are also so welcoming !
Great food, generous portions at good prices. Matt is the best! Limited seating, mostly takeout.
Great roti for a good price. Always very friendly. I make a point to stop in when passing through Fergus.
Great roti.
Perfect example of a hidden gem. One of the reasons I adore Fergus. The roti is always fresh and ready to be served. The owners are personable and very friendly. I brought my boyfriend for the first time last year who has been to dozens of roti places and he absolutly loves and prefers this one. If you havent tried it you should.
Man, this place is fantastic! Such a cute little restaurant with delicious and filling rotis (I had the snack veggie roti, and it took me 2 seatings to finish the whole thing). Also, the Chutney that comes on the side is killer. So great!
Fantastic food, service amd priced!
Excellent Chicken Roti. Ive never tried anything else on the menu, I bet its all good!
Amazing food. Great price for the sizes. The Tuesday meat balls and Thursday jerk chicken are amazing.
Goat roti Wednesday was fantastic.
Chicken Roti and the chutney were amazing! My new favorite place in Fergus.
Best curry in town
Offers tasty Caribbean dishes. The proprietors are welcoming and accommodating. You can dine in or on a sunny day - just enjoy your meal outside on a park bench overlooking the Grand River!
Overview: Food was was a good portion and did have a nice flavour. Averaged pricing $8-10. The staff were very friendly and helped answering questions. If you re looking for super authentic ... this is more of a Canadianized version. They have daily specials that they serve only that day but also have staple items that will be there each time you go. Express or takeout style service. Food appears to be made fresh and kept on a hot table for when you order. However the roti was made fresh to order. There are two picnic tables inside for you to eat inside or they are close to the river and public spaces are there for you to eat at. The food: We had the jerk chicken- not super spicy, rice and peas were really good, coleslaw was fine but a little hard to eat due to the size of the pieces. And chicken roti- roti shell was good and the chicken and potatoes inside were cooked perfectly. Flavour was good. Hot sauce was served with our meals but it was more sweet than spicy. If you re looking for a good meal that s different from your usual, definitely give it a try!
Easy fast take out, good food, reasonably priced.
We love Underground Kitchen! Friendly service and great food. We often get chicken roti as take out, but have also enjoyed their jerk chicken. Quality is consistent, and you can always ask for them to make it spicier if desired.
Youve got to try this place.
Their Roti is the best I have had outside of a few small places in Toronto. Service and prices area also amazing for the quality you get. If you call ahead for pickup it will be ready and waiting.
Great spot for a quick and delicious bite. Nice tunes and great aroma. Go tos are chicken roti and a meat patty. You cant lose!
Absolutely delicious! Cant wait to have it again.
good food and friendly people
I am addicted to the chicken rotti at this place, and the owner is awesome!
Amazing food. Hands down.
The food tastes so good and is fresh made.
My wifes family is Trini...they loved the food. Matt worked with Kory down in Oakville. Pure Trini roti. Cannot find a better quality meal for the price. One poor review (a professional outrager, M.S.) tells it all. Thanks Matt and Jenn (and try her yoga studio ). Cheers.
Good food.
Great roti at a very good price. Set daily specials. Take out is expected as there is only a picnic bench inside. Week days only no weekends.
How did I not know Fergus had awesome Caribbean food? Shame on me!!! The price is very good for a hearty-sized roti that could feed two people easily. Great heat, potatoes were cooked perfectly and the chicken was moist. Will be back for sure.
Wow, did not expect this at all. Stoped by after visiting the fergus golf club, best roti I ve ever had. Owners are super friendly and prices are amazing. Felt right at home. Got the mixed chicken and vegetable roti, I am planning to come back and try it all!
Tried the Chicken Roti (Hot) and was very impressed. So good! Highly recommended.
Amazing food. They are doing it right
We love the roti here! It is our favourite quick meal to pick up when we dont feel like cooking!!
So delicious!
Great roti. But not one weekends or late.
Lovely service as well as divine cuisine. It is blissful listening to the waterfall just outside, while enjoying a harvest special, their carrot ginger soup.
My favourite spot for Rotis in this area. Owner Matt is a real nice guy who clearly puts heart and soul into all the home cooked food served here. I can vouch for the chicken roti, veggie roti, paneer roti, jamaican patties and any dessert item he has on offer. Skip the fast food joint and come here to taste the quality and flavour at the same or cheaper price than a McDonalds meal. Keep up the amazing work Matt & Co.!!! Note: not open on weekends.
Good is good
Amazing food and great service and prices. Legit recipe, really impressed! Will return whenever Im in Fergus
Such good food!
First impression: A delicious Vegetable Roti and a very clean shop!
Great food and I love the hot sauce, the curry goat on wednesdays is the best mmmm good.
Made a delivery to this place I didnt even know exsisted. Grabbed a bite to eat and I have to say it was amazing. The owner was great, very nice fellow. Recommend to all!

Great quality, fantastic flavours, terrific value, Matt is always a pleasure. Can t recommend him and his food enough!
This establishment is the best hidden gem of Centre Wellington, hands down! The food is amazing and full of flavour, the staff are also super friendly and provide great service!
New favorite place to eat out in Fergus, especially if you are looking for a quick bite! Convenient location with picnic tables in front of the river nearby. Chutney is THE BEST.
Roti was good, will be back
Just had their shrimp roti, it is so good!!! the best restaurant in town.
Great portions, great Carribean food!
Delicious and friendly. Enjoy every trip there.
First visit really good lots to eat left overs for lunch
Had my first Roti today. Will be going back. Great people, food and price.
Excellent! Chicken Roti is worth the drive to Fergus
Excellent! Going back for more!
Best Food in Fergus! Great service, friendly staff and very reasonably priced
Excellent food! Friendly staff! Fair prices! Overall a magnificent local spot and a must try for tourists
Tried the roti, patties and coleslaw - finally something different to try in Fergus!
Great taste, good portions.
Everything made from scratch , even the Roti Shells..very reasonable prices food was amazing..best chicken roti ive ever had and lived in brampton for 20 years ..Hey Fergus YOU GOTTA EAT HERE!!!
I had a mini chicken roti here that wasnt really mini at all. :) It was filled with hot, spicy meat/potato that was hot in just the right way (i.e. youre not just dying for more water, but it had an excellent kick to it). SUPER pleasantly surprised. Though it was a quiet day in Fergus, there was a steady trickle of customers throughout the lunch hour even though this is hidden in the back alley (beside the public library). And honestly I was full with mini but wish I got the full-sized; it was just that delicious... would definitely hit this place up again if I ever go back to Fergus. The lady helping me was super nice as well!!
chicken roti was de-lish
Outstanding food! Great flavours, balanced and real attention to culinary details. Try one meal and youll keep coming back for more.
