Our Story

Bringing Elevated Caribbean Cuisine to Athens

"It's not just lunch. It's home-style Caribbean authenticity, elevated for Athens."

It's Jerk Fridays was created from a simple desire: to bring authentic, home-style Caribbean cuisine to Athens — done properly, with pride, precision, and heart.

After more than 30 years of combined experience in the restaurant industry, we saw an opportunity. Athens is filled with dedicated professionals who work long hours and deserve something far better than ordinary lunch options.

Founded by Deryck J., a proud Barbadian with over 20 years of restaurant management experience across the Caribbean and the United States — alongside two seasoned Athens-based restaurant managers — It's Jerk Fridays blends cultural authenticity with professional standards.

Our jerk chicken is prepared the traditional way — seasoned with depth, slow-marinated, and cooked to capture the smoky, balanced heat that defines true Caribbean flavor.

Quality Ingredients

Freshly prepared meals made with care — never rushed, never compromised.

Cultural Authenticity

Respecting the roots of Caribbean cuisine while presenting it with refinement.

Professional Delivery

On-time service, polished presentation, and premium packaging.

Community First

Every Friday — more than a meal. Comfort, culture, and consistency.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about ordering, subscriptions, delivery, and our menu.

Can I order for my unit, department, or office team?

Yes — group orders are encouraged! Most workplaces place one group order to simplify delivery. Each meal is individually packaged so everyone receives their own meal while the full delivery arrives together.

Can I edit my order after placing it?

Contact us before Wednesday at 11:59 PM and we will do our best to help. Reach us by email at orders@itsjerkfridays.com.

What is the cancellation policy?

All meals are prepared to order. To maintain our quality standards:

Orders must be canceled by Thursday at 11:59 AM (EST) prior to delivery. After this deadline, orders are final and non-refundable. As a one-time monthly courtesy, customers may transfer their meal to the following Friday, or gift the meal to another recipient.
What is the subscription policy?

Subscriptions automatically renew weekly. Subscribers may pause or cancel anytime before the Thursday 11:59 AM cutoff. Failure to cancel before that deadline results in that week's charge being processed as normal.

How does the 9th meal free reward work?
Earn 1 Free Meal Every Month!

Purchase any 8 meals within the same calendar month and receive your 9th meal completely free. Limit one free meal per customer per month. Meal count resets at the beginning of each new month.
Is the food spicy? Is there a mild option?

Yes — our Signature Jerk Chicken uses bold, authentic Caribbean jerk seasoning and is spicy. A Mild Jerk Chicken option is available for those who prefer less heat — simply select Mild Jerk when placing your order.

Do you offer vegetarian options?

Yes! Our Signature Jerk Veggie features seasonal jerk vegetables with rice and peas and steamed cabbage and carrots — authentic Caribbean flavor throughout. Jerk sauce is included on the side so you can customize the heat level.

What time is delivery and where do you serve?

Meals are delivered between 11:00 AM and 2:00 PM every Friday. We currently serve Athens, GA and surrounding local areas. Contact us to confirm delivery to your specific location.
