Stones Throw (6pm-2am daily) was launched by a couple of music industry veterans in 2017 bringing an organic, open-air ganja-friendly venue to the city's bumping night life scene. With its ecclectic conscious reggae lean and thatched roof natural cabana styling, the bar quickly became a favorite venue for album launch parties and afrobeat soirées, with regular live entertainment.
Pallet is a welcome recent addition to Kingston's maturing restaurant scene that serves properly prepared food in a relaxing, informal setting. Conceived around a triple entendre where live art and music meet scrumptious comfort food and repurposed freight pallets serve as furnishings and decor, the restaurant, bar and music venue is the brainchild of celebrated young chef Shea Stewart and business partner Ricardo Barrett. The menu includes fish tacos, served in hard shells with a tangy cabbage pickle and queso fresco drizzled on top.
Nanook is a bar and performance space geared towards creativity that promotes up-and-coming artists as part of its mission to help Caribbean people find a livelihood through art. Live music performances, spoken word and live art are regular features.
The childhood home of up-and-coming reggae acts Kelissa and Keznamdi whose roots reggae parents toured Africa and the world, Levels hosts occasional concerts, typically featuring representatives of the contemporary conscious revival, like Chronixx and Jesse Royal, to name a few. Kelissa and Kesnamdi also perform on their turf frequently, normally in conjunction with an invited guest artist.
Wickie Wackie is a live music venue that pulls many of Jamaica's up-and-coming artists for live music. The venue is located on the beach in Bull Bay making for vibesy confluence of crashing waves and sea breeze to help mute the booming bass and thick ganja smoke wafting late into the night.
Red Bones Blues Café (noon–11 p.m. Mon.–Fri., 6–11 p.m. Sat., bar menu continues till the last customer leaves) has great albeit pricey food (ranging from US$17 for linguine to US$50 for grilled lobster) and a nice ambience with regular low-key events like fashion shows, poetry readings, and cabaret performances on a cozy stage in the garden. There's live music on Fridays, a world music selector on Thursdays, and poetry on the last Wednesday of every month. A gallery on the property features Jamaican painting, sculpture, ceramics, and textiles.
Puls8 is an open air bar at the Pulse Entertainment complex that hosts weekly events as well as Pulse models during their many annual events and after parties. Light bar food is served.
