About

Footprints Cafe sits on Belmont Road in Kingston, just off Oxford Road. With only two reviews logged and a 3-out-of-5 overall rating, it's not pulling consistent praise — the food, value, and service all register at 1 out of 5, while atmosphere edges slightly higher at 2. That's a pattern worth noting if you're considering a stop. The low subratings suggest execution issues more than concept problems, but the sample size is small enough that one or two bad experiences could skew the picture. If you do go, temper expectations and maybe ask what's working that day before you commit to a full meal. Kingston has plenty of other cafes with steadier track records, so unless you're in the immediate area or curious to form your own opinion, this one doesn't make a strong case for a detour.

Tours & things to do nearby

Eventuality Tours

Eventuality Tours runs small-group cultural and historical tours out of Kingston, mostly focused on the music and political history that shaped modern Jamaica. The 5/5 rating comes from six reviews, which is a small sample but suggests they're doing something consistently right with whoever books. The Kingston base matters here — this isn't beach tourism, it's capital-city context: Bob Marley Museum visits, downtown walks through Trench Town, sometimes stops at Devon House or the National Gallery depending on the itinerary. What stands out is the local guide angle. These aren't scripted bus loops; the tours lean on Kingston insiders who can explain why certain corners matter or how sound system culture actually worked. It's a better fit for travelers who want to understand Jamaica beyond the resort corridor, and who don't mind spending a day in the city's heat and traffic to get there.

Bikram Yoga Jamaica

Bikram Yoga Jamaica runs a studio in Kingston, and the 5-star rating comes from a small sample—two reviews total—so treat that as early feedback rather than settled consensus. What you're getting is traditional Bikram: 90 minutes, 26 postures and two breathing exercises, room heated to around 105 degrees. It's a specific, regimented format, so if you've done Bikram elsewhere, you know what you're walking into. The studio caters to both locals and visitors who want to maintain their practice while in Kingston. Classes run on a schedule, so check ahead rather than dropping in blind. Expect the usual prep advice—hydrate heavily beforehand, bring a towel, expect to sweat more than you think possible. The location on Latham Avenue is residential and relatively easy to reach if you're staying uptown.

Private Arrival Transfer: Kingston International Airport to Hotels Across Jamaica

This is a private car service from Norman Manley International Airport in Kingston to hotels anywhere on the island. One booking means one vehicle — sedan, SUV, or van depending on your group size — with a driver who meets you at arrivals and handles the logistics while you decompress after landing. The 5/5 comes from a single review, so take it as one data point, but the model makes sense for people who'd rather not negotiate a taxi or coordinate a rental pickup when they're tired. Kingston to Montego Bay is roughly three hours; Kingston to Ocho Rios is two. If you're staying on the north coast and flying into Kingston, factor that drive time into your first day. The transfer works both directions, so you can book the return leg at the same time if your departure is also through Kingston.

Island Grill

Island Grill is a local Jamaican chain with a Kingston 6 location that runs on volume and consistency. The menu is straightforward Caribbean — jerk chicken, curry goat, brown stew — plated fast and priced to keep regulars coming back. The 4.1 food score and matching value rating say it does what it promises: filling plates at prices that don't hurt. Service and atmosphere trail behind, which tracks for a spot built on speed and turnover. It's casual, kid-friendly, counter-order format — you're here to eat, not linger. The Cheap Eats designation is accurate; this is weekday lunch territory, a place where office workers and families know they'll get fed without ceremony. With 265 reviews holding steady at a 4, Island Grill occupies the reliable middle: not where you'd take visitors chasing a scene, but where you'd go when you want Jamaican food that tastes right and doesn't require a second thought about the bill.

Devon House Ice Cream

Devon House Ice Cream is in Kingston, on the grounds of Devon House mansion on Hope Road. It's technically a restaurant in the listings, but really it's an ice cream shop with a permanent line — over a thousand reviews and a 4.6 food rating say people keep coming back for the scoops. The flavors lean tropical and local: soursop, Devon stout, coconut, guava — nothing frozen-aisle about it. They do straight classics too, but the Caribbean ones are why you're here. It's cheap eats, which means a cone or cup won't set you back much, and the value rating at 4.3 tracks with that. The grounds around it are nice for sitting with kids, which people do. Service can drag when the place is slammed, but the 4.1 rating there is still solid given the volume they push. Cash speeds things up if you have it. Go midweek if you can — weekends the wait stretches.

M10 Bar & Grill

M10 Bar & Grill is a casual international spot in Kingston, tucked on Vineyard Road. The food rating sits at 4.2 — noticeably higher than the overall score — which tells you what actually works here. People come for the plates, not the experience. The menu covers enough ground to feed families or groups without anyone vetoing the choice, and the mid-range pricing lines up with the 3.9 value score. Service lags behind at 3.3, so expect some wait or inconsistency depending on the night. The atmosphere is straightforward, nothing polished, which fits the vibe. It's the kind of place that works when you want something decent without dressing up or planning ahead. No reservations needed, and kids are welcome if you're trying to keep it simple.

ROK Hotel Kingston, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

ROK sits on the downtown Kingston waterfront at the corner of King Street and the harbor — closer to Bob Marley Museum and Devon House than any beach, and that's intentional. The 4.7 rating across 416 reviews puts it among the stronger urban options in the capital, and the service score matches the rating exactly. This is a business-friendly boutique hotel with a rooftop pool and balconies facing the Blue Mountains or the harbor. The $400 nightly average reflects its role as the polished mid-tier option in a city that doesn't have many. Kingston Harbor isn't a swim spot, but the hotel runs a shuttle if you want sand. Most guests are here for meetings, culture stops, or a night before a flight — the location score reflects walkability to downtown landmarks more than resort amenities. Rooms and sleep quality both land at 4.5, and cleanliness is 4.6. It's not a party property, but the rooftop bar does fine work at sunset.

South Coast

The Hermitage

The Hermitage sits in Bluefields Bay on Jamaica's south coast, well off the usual resort circuit between Montego Bay and Negril. It's a small operation—two reviews, all fives across the board—which tells you it's either brand new or genuinely selective about who shows up. Perfect scores in rooms, service, cleanliness, value, and location suggest the kind of place where someone is actually paying attention, not running a machine. The south coast doesn't get the crowds or the marketing dollars, which works in your favor if you're after quiet water and fewer tour buses. Bluefields Bay itself is calm, protected, and historically significant if you care about that sort of thing. The Hermitage appears to trade on intimacy and execution rather than scale. With only two reviews to go on, it's hard to call this proven, but the numbers are clean and the location is legitimately different. If you're tired of the north coast formula, it's worth a look.

Devon House Bakery

Devon House Bakery sits on the grounds of the Devon House estate in Kingston, which is worth mentioning because the setting makes it feel like less of a bakery run and more of a reason to actually go to Hope Road. The 4.4 rating holds across food and atmosphere, and the cheap-eats pricing makes sense when you see what you're getting — Jamaican patties, hard dough bread, plantain tarts, the kind of counter fare that doesn't need to justify itself. Lines form during lunch and weekends, which speaks to both the quality and the fact that it's one of the few places in the area where you can grab something fast without sitting down. Kids are common. The service moves. If you're already at Devon House for the ice cream or the house tour, this is the practical stop — but plenty of people skip the rest and come straight here for a patty and a ginger beer to go.

Kingston

Usain Bolt's Tracks & Records

Usain Bolt's Tracks & Records is on Constant Spring Road in Kingston, and yes, it's exactly what it sounds like—track memorabilia on the walls, a menu built around comfort food, and a sports-bar energy that works whether you're watching a game or just here for wings. The space scores highest for atmosphere among the subratings, which tracks: it's loud, casual, and popular with families and groups looking for something easy. The food is a mix of Caribbean, American, and international plates—jerk, burgers, pasta—and it lands solidly in the mid-range both on price and execution. The 3.9 overall rating across 600-plus reviews suggests consistency more than innovation, and the value rating of 3.6 tells you not to expect bargains. Service is fine. If you want a lively spot in Kingston where kids are welcome and you don't need a reservation, it does the job.
