Located in the vibrant Mackay Sydney St Markets, Jamaica Blue offers a unique café experience that beautifully combines quality with comfort. This inviting gem is well-known for its dedication to serving delicious food and exceptional coffee, making it a favored spot for both locals and visitors alike.

As you step inside, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee envelops you, awakening your senses and promising an enjoyable indulgence. Jamaica Blue’s coffee selection is truly commendable. From the rich, smooth Latte to the bold Long Black, every cup is crafted with care. Customer 'gagan kindra' noted the exceptional quality of the coffee, praising its inviting aroma and delightful flavor. This attention to detail ensures that each sip is a revelation of comfort and warmth.

The menu offers a fantastic array of light eats that cater to various tastes. The Muesli Bowl (A$16.00) is perfect for those seeking a wholesome start, while the Falafel Nourish Bowl (A$19.50) bursts with flavor and freshness for a satisfying lunch option. The Caesar Salad (A$18.00) is a classic that impresses with crisp romaine and creamy dressing, and the Halloumi & Avo Roll (A$21.00) combines savory and creamy textures for a delicious bite.

But the culinary delights don’t stop there. The café is equally popular for its hearty main dishes. The Ultimate Chicken Burger (A$23.00) and Fish & Chips stand out as customer favorites, with generous portions that are sure to fill you up. As 'Chuqita Yasso' kindly shares, “both were delicious,” emphasizing not only the taste but also the great service and wonderful atmosphere that Jamaica Blue provides. It’s a place where dining feels personal and attentive, with staff who make every guest feel special.

If you're in the mood for something sweet, don’t miss out on their famed carrot cake. 'Sienna Boxsell' admits it’s the best she’s tasted, though it seems the café could improve on wait times to enhance overall satisfaction. Regardless, the delightful offerings and friendliness of the staff, like those noted by 'Macy Trembath', make up for any minor hiccups in service.

The atmosphere at Jamaica Blue is relaxed and welcoming, making it a perfect spot to unwind after a busy day at the markets or to enjoy a peaceful moment with a friend over coffee. Whether you’re a casual visitor or a local regular, the café delivers a sense of community and charm that is hard to resist.

In a nutshell, Jamaica Blue Sydney St Markets not only serves great food and coffee but also embodies a warm spirit that invites you to come back. With its flavorful menu and commendable coffee, it's undoubtedly a must-visit when in Mackay.

Truly Exceptional Cup ​I recently had the pleasure of trying the coffee here, and it was a truly exceptional experience from start to finish. My first impression was its inviting aroma—a rich, comforting scent that hinted at the flavors to come. It was served at the perfect temperature, allowing me to enjoy its warmth without delay. ​The first sip was a revelation. This coffee is incredibly smooth and well-balanced, without any bitterness and staff was very polite. Thanks

The food here was great. The best carrot cake! But they were pretty slow with serving. Many tables were left with empty cups and dish for a while.

Came in for some lunch. Coffee's came out so good. We ordered fish and chips and a chicken burger both were delicious and it was a generous amount. Service was great, staff were lovely and kind. It was a great atmosphere and the window seat was my favourite part. 10/10 would recommend, definitely will be our favourite spot from now on

Staff was so sweet! Lovely service while ordering, very friendly I only had something small from the cabinet but it came out at a quick but reasonable pace, and iced latte was so beautifully presented! A cup of milk and ice with the shot on the side, I had fun pouring it in and watching the colours mix One server complimented my style and I overall felt very special and very welcome, hoping to come back soon!!

Coffee made to perfection as per request. Food also was good with new ranges coming in often. Tried both halloumi range and Mushroom range, both really good. And service was really good with personal touch compared to other cafes.
