Devon House Bakery

Kingston


Those in the know swear by patties served up in this small bakery located at Devon House. We're inclined to agree that they're some of the best in Jamaica (albeit at a slightly premium price). Lobster patty, anyone? An array of tempting cakes and juices is also available at this excellent option for a picnic on the grounds.
