50 Best Cafes near Jamaica

“Took two trips here on the same day to sample something for brunch and for lunch. For starters, the place is pretty big despite how the place looks from the entrance. The people working behind the counter were pretty cool, service was on point. For breakfast I had the Nutella Custard Croffle and a can of Celsius. The croffle was delightful for sure, pleasing to the taste buds though one small complaint...I don't think croffles are a good base for any sandwich because it was messy eating that, the croffle was kinda all over the place eating it.

Came back here for lunch after a few hours in the gym to order a Mocha Haze Power Smoothie and a Smoked Turkey Croffle. Croffle sandwiches here are delicious as a whole but they are very unstable and can leave a mess so as a note, ALWAYS ask for extra napkins. The smoothie was very good and filling too. I could see myself coming around here a couple more times, trying out as much of their expansive menu as I possibly could.“

“Healthy foods and a relaxing atmosphere. Nice people too!“

“You have to buy a pound of thier freshly roasted Spanish roast coffee to bring home. The staff is super friendly and a great work ethic. Carmen is awesome and fully attentive to her customers, staff and business. The food is fresh and delicious. It's an out of the way place but worth it.“

“The food is always amazing. The staff is friendly. The prices are great. Rae’s coming to Independence has been great for my breakfast adventures.“

“Stumbled across the bar, when we had a wait for a train to Fire Island. Was made very welcome by the bar tender and locals and enjoyed a couple of nice pints and a some entertaining stories. Will definitely return if we ever come back to New “

“Right across from queens hospital center Black Olive Deli & Cafe is the spot to go to for all types of food. They make sandwiches, smoothies and much more I got a chance to try there bagel cream cheese and bacon 🥯🥓 , and no pork that beef hits even better. The guys that work there are really dope and give the right service and even great company and conversion that are different.“

“The best Algerian restaurant in NYC, no doubt 🥰“

“Food was good and friendly customer service. I will recommend everyone this place.“

“Amazing food and the service was great and attentive! Had a cappuccino with oat milk and a breakfast plate with avocado toast and French toast to share. Very flavorful meal and the espresso was amazing.

I also really loved how they decorated the place with a variety of portraits and positive affirmations around the cafe!

Will definitely visit again next time with friends and family to try out more food options and drinks! :)“

“The best in the neighborhood!“

“Good quality, family-friendly, reasonable price. The owner was very friendly and accommodating to my two young children. They had fun in the cafe and enjoyed their very healthy smoothies. Would recommend to parents for an enjoyable and low-stress outing with healthy food for your kids“

“Such a sweet spot. Staff is kind and attentive. They do not rush you. The decore reminds me of a curated antique store with Victorian inspiration. Very clean and calm. Purple yam latte was yummy.
Not really a study place. They don't have wifi and please don't bring laptops per the sign.“

“Went here for the first time, here are my thoughts:

Customer service: Great! Very welcoming and kind.

Food: The breakfast was AMAZING! I purchased the P.O.A.M and hazelnut latte with a beef stick. The presentation for everything was gorgeous! It tasted just as good as it looked.

Price: It was a bit on the pricey side but not to expensive. I spent roughly $40 for everything.

Parking: I went around 9am and there was plenty of free parking on the side street.

Atmosphere: I sat inside to eat and read a book. Very nice inside. Good amount of sunlight and cozy!

I HIGHLY recommend! I found this place while driving one day and no regrets.“

“Best Marathon Station EVER!!!“

“They operate out of a renovated RV with only outdoor seating from my observation. It's definitely a unique little spot, but don't expect too much. I enjoyed my coffee, and the service was awesome about informing me on vegan latte options!“

“I highly recommend this restaurant! The food is amazing! You must try the buffalo wings if you love your dishes with a spicy kick and the buffalo cauliflower bites that simply melt in your mouth! The Chef's V Steak is a rich and flavorful you should try it. The service is wonderful and the ambiance is very trendy.“

“I’ve been coming to this coffee shop for over two years now, and there’s truly nothing else like it in the neighborhood. The quality of their coffee is consistently excellent, and you can tell they take pride in what they serve. Rodrigo makes my caramel mocha latte every morning — it’s the perfect way to start my day!

The atmosphere is always warm and inviting. I often bring my laptop to get some work done; the Wi-Fi is reliable, the music is always on point, and the vibe is just right for focusing or relaxing.

Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for great coffee, friendly service, clean and a welcoming environment.“

“Well what started out as "oh let's try this place" as we hunted for a new brunch spot has quickly become a fam and friends fav. This eatery is a hidden gem in the mount Haven section of the BX...who knew!? Love the rustic casual ,chill vibe & the rooftop seating on a summer day is everything. The food... fresh uncomplicated, there are halal vegan& vegetarian options. The chocolate croissant and vegan carrot cake 🥰 My personal favorite is avocado toast with turkey bacon , arugula or the goddess bowl add a great cup of coffee or Chai latte it's all delish!! To the staff are friendly and helpful. We love this eatery so much we just had my friend's son's wedding there, intimate, beautiful. A must try.“

“Great service, delicious iced coffee and matcha latte!“

“We passed by this popular store front with lots of people enjoying their treats and decided to get one ourselves.
The waiting line for the kiosk was longer than the delivery of the ice cream itself. The ice cream was fairly creamy and cold. The cone was crunchy as desired.
Matcha taste was a tad bit strong, but good for acquired taste.“

“We celebrated an anniversary with Dinner South Bronx at Nourish last week, and the experience was flawless. The service was impeccable, and the steak was cooked to perfection. The dining room has a chic, cozy ambiance, making it a wonderful place for a date night or a special occasion. We are already planning our next visit for another fantastic meal.“

“Mr. Khalit is amazing! I stumbled upon his shop while i was waiting for my train at Kew Gardens station. It was extremely cold day and was around the shop’s closing time, yet he asked me to stay in his shop even though my train won’t be here for a while. Mr. Khalit is kindhearted and seems to love his job. I’m so glad I found this gem and definitely will visit again if I have the opportunity!“

“Was there visiting from Ohio. Great coffee enjoyed sitting outside taking in the scenery.“

“Stupid, d*** delicious. Will be back every chance possible. Well worth it.“

“A hidden gem of a little café that feels like home the moment you walk in. Everything is made from scratch using fresh, organic ingredients, and you can truly taste the care in every bite. The lovely owner who runs the place pours so much love into her cooking, it’s food that comforts your soul as much as it feeds you. A simple, beautiful spot that reminds you how special homemade food can b. Highly recommended!“

“Coffee, hot chocolate, muffins! The experience!“

“This coffee is the best coffee that I have ever had. It has ruined all other coffee for me...which is not a bad thing.🖤🖤🖤“

“I've never tried Kava before and so, I really wanted to check it out! This spot in Brooklyn is a very casual, relaxed, and chill spot for you to hang with friends or get some work done (there's free wi-fi!). The menu is pretty straight forward and you can get either your choice of tea or a cocktail.

I ended trying Blood moon, lassi, Kolkata, and Cinnamon toast crunch cocktails. The cocktails themselves were pretty decent and just tasted like juice. Definitely a cool experience, and I would love to try other spots.“

“Love this place!
So happy it’s just around the corner from me ☺️. The bartenders are amazing, Jessica is such a sweetheart and makes the absolute best drinks. The owner is super cool and really sets the tone for the great vibes here.
The cook always puts out delicious finger foods which are perfect for snacking while drinking. I especially love when they do karaoke nights and bring in live bands, it’s always a fun time. And when DJ Sound Nice plays there, he always has the place rocking with all types of music.

This spot is a total gem—great atmosphere, great people, and always a good time!“

“Nomad is wonderful, and a coffee shop that still offers a proper sized drip coffee for a reasonable price :-)
Their egg and cheese on ciabatta w/ sriracha ($6 I think?) keeps my sense of hope alive.
Love this spot- def recommend!!!“

“I'm in town visiting family and had the chance to check out a few local spots that came highly recommended. Blacksmiths Breads was one of the breakfast places on my list.. and it absolutely lived up to the hype. The coffee was spot-on and the croissant was perfectly soft, buttery, and fresh. Everything hit the mark. I’ll definitely be back, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for a top-notch, quick breakfast spot. 10/10!“

“Great service and ambiance I had the avocado toast to die for and the coffee was amazing“

“My girlfriend and I came back twice in 2 days The food was delicious and the 2 people working the front were amazing, they deserve a raise and anyone who disagrees honestly wouldn’t know good service if it bopped them on their bald spot. 10/10 great success“

“We were staying just one day/night while in transit near JFK, and our place was sort of close to this restaurant.

We came here for breakfast/lunch and had a great meal here! Service was friendly, efficient, and the food was delicious.

I could tell a lot of neighborhood folks and locals were there, which is always a nice sign.“

“When I asked for a refill on my iced coffee they said, “of course! I feed my customers like my family.”

The burger was perfection. I don’t remember getting such genuinely incredible customer service and it was the first time I visited. Love the community in this area.

When I googled “cafe” in the neighborhood, this place came up. Absolutely worth coming here.“

“One of my favorite coffee spots and I live in Nassau County but it’s worth the trip every single time! I finally tried their Nutella latte and it is worth the hype. I look forward to keep coming here and highly recommend to friends and family.“

“Food is so delicious and great, we tried the egg and cheese with halal bacon which was tasty, but the short ribs sandwich is another level of tastiness, was just perfect!
Their coffee is also perfect.
The staff are very friendly and nice, for sure I recommend this spot for a brunch.“

“After a gazillion weeks of quarantine, or what seemed like anyway, we dined out in their courtyard. Everything was fresh and tasty and excellent service. It truly was a well earned treat, Looking forward to our next visit.“

“Great local spot. I was in the area for a meeting. My breakfast sandwich was bomb. Flavors were yummy! Lox, pickled onion and cilantro with veggie cream cheese on an everything. 😋 Music was bumping and the atmosphere inviting.“

“One of a kind. Their food is amazing. Presentation on point. They serve all sorts of coffee and they have a wide selection of juice and smoothies. I came in for a green juice, who knew they had a food menu. I definitely recommend this place“

“Some days you just want comfort without leaving home, and today Susan’s Kitchen was exactly what I needed. I ordered delivery, and they went above and beyond with every detail. The chocolate chip cookie with walnuts is the kind of treat that instantly lifts your mood, and the omelettes were perfectly prepared and so delicious. Their thoughtfulness really shines through, and I’m so grateful for the warmth they put into their food.“
