    Service was good. Coffee was ok. The smoothie was partially pre prepared not as fresh as I would like to see.

    Dropped by for quick breakfast just before going to the airport. Service was very quick and…read morecourteous. Coffee was great , food was okay . I got the cream mushrooms on sourdough toast , which tasted good initially but then started feeling that there was too much black pepper and kind of bland. My husband got the piri piri chicken burger , which had avocado also. The avocado didn't really gel well with the piri piri spices . Overall it was average . Ambiance was great for dine in . Some street parking available right outside the restaurant. The place was almost empty when we came here .

    Jamaica Blue is an Australian brand but before you are completely put off continue reading. The…read morecafe itself has a pretty relaxed vibe about it. Some of the chairs are covered in coffee sacks and there are awesome lights made from wicker baskets which hang along the front of the cafe. I suspect they get a lot of the airport staff come down here to chill out for a bit on their breaks or after a long shift that probably started at 4am. The staff were very friendly and the service was quick. The coffee was okay. Jamaica Blue source their beans from 5 regions then blend and roast their own roastery, The Bean Alliance. There are 7 varieties, some organic and fair trade which are also available to purchase. I have no idea what my parents and sister had when we came, but my sister who is a barista said that the coffee was not great. I would say overall Jamaica Blue is average. There wasn't anything else in the area unless you want to dine at a fast food chain so this was it. It definitely has franchise written all over it and I guess that is where the problem is. I've never been to a good one, they are like the Subways of the cafe genre.
