A new coffee shop for Telford – and it's not a Costa.

A new coffee shop for Telford – and it's not a Costa.

Opening up soon in the new street that runs through where New Look used to be, is Jamaica Blue.

From the website 'Jamaica Blue has been built on two simple beliefs that have guided us in everything that we’ve done: a belief in sourcing the very best coffee; and a belief in using only fresh, premium ingredients to deliver contemporary café dishes with a twist.

Our name, Jamaica Blue, is drawn from the majestic Blue Mountains of Jamaica, one of the best coffee producing regions in the world and home to our exclusive Wallenford Estate Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee.

Our simple philosophy of great coffee and food, together with our passionate crew of chefs, baristas and service team are the Jamaica Blue recipe for continued success. From our humble beginnings twenty-odd years ago, we now have a growing international network of over 170 stores operating in 7 countries.'

That's all well and good, but surely the biggest selling point for this new cafe is simply the fact that it's not a Costa.

  • We don’t need this… try actual sorting out some local business who might stay a little bit longer than your named high street… because look how many have closed down or gone into administration…. joke… Telford should be know as the food hall…. more food than retail… joke really

  • Another faceless multinational joining the centre… what a shame the rents are ridiculously high to attract the fab artisan pop-ups we have in the area…. that town centre needs more pop-up food stores as they do in Shrewsbury The Market Hall Shrewsbury. Yes glad it’s not another crappy costa

  • Man, people don’t half spend a shed load on coffee these days, So many saying “I got no money”, well ,stop shelling out £3.90 for a sandwich and £2.65 on a coffee then you may just have a pot to piss in.
