history
Established in 1992, Jamaica Blue opened the first café in Miranda, Australia and has since grown to over 70 outlets throughout Australia, New Zealand, Dubai and China.
The name Jamaica Blue originates from the renowned and majestic Blue Mountains in Jamaica where the climatic conditions are ideal for growing premium coffee. The Jamaica Blue concept is built on the central theme of “fine coffee”. Jamaica Blue’s distinct advantage is its genuinely superior espresso coffee and the extent of its food offering to customers in a contemporary cafe environment.
