Review Jackson’s Real Food Market - Midrand

What a beautiful venue, decor is on point. The variety of healthy food and drinks here is amazing. The staff is very welcoming and gives good service.

Absolutely love this place! Always a good vibe, beautiful furniture and great service. The food is absolutely amazing. I am on a special diet and our waitress listened carefully and even put my diet food in a beautiful bowl so that I can eat with my family. I really appreciate the effort.

I never review a restaurant on a single visit, because I know things go wrong and I want to ensure a balanced view. This is one such a case. My 3rd visit confirmed that the food stays amazing. Jackson’s really specialize in healthy foods and the menu reflects that. Today I opted for a beef burger and fries. The “other” option 😀. Our server was obviously new ( paper name tag) because coffee was cold ( after a 20 minute wait, I assumed she forgot to check regularly), and when she brought the second round of coffee she insisted on shoving the cups under our elbows even though there was ample space on the table. Maybe some additional training would help her. But Jackson’s remains an awesome experience, I highly recommend it. Their varied cakes and desserts are top notch.

Love the food selection and all the healthy products that are constantly being added to the shelves. The store is laid out so well, easy to find items and to see where is what. I tried the eatery last week and had a simple cheese sandwich but it was lovely. I will definitely try something a bit more exiting next time. The amount of vegetarian varieties is also amazing! Thank you for taking all people into account with your product offerings. Love those Vegetable wraps.

Jackson’s is great! I really enjoy the variety of foods and products on offer. Their café is also really good and their sandwiches are a must. Their portions could be a bit bigger but for the most part, what they offer is great and comes at a reasonable price. The decor and ambience is well balanced and the café is also suitable for business meetings - it is an appropriate setting for business meetings.

Mapula will have me come back! She welcomed us with such great care and suggested the nicest meals. The place has great atmosphere, it’s family oriented and it’s vegan friendly🌱 it honestly is a full package, great food mixed with great service!

Good food good company. But loud inside, acoustics is not great. Nice grocery department. Will try shopping online.

Super spot for fresh goodies. Love the fact that it supports local farmers and makers. The food served at the eatery was delicious, out waitress was super friendly and helpful

Love Jackson's. Great fresh bread. Great food. Wish had raw milk from Irene Farm.

Great place for great food. The restaurant staff are amazing. The food is delicious. The drinks are perfect. And the grocery store side has a wonderful selection of healthy foods avaliable. I can't wait to return.

Tried this place for lunch and our main attraction was the view from the restaurant. The staff are friendly and the food options offered are healthy. I felt that the juice and smoothie sizes were quite small for the price though. The burgers and fries were delicious and you could taste that the meat was not pumped full of preservatives and strange chemicals. The meal portion sizes definitely made up for the small beverages.

Food and vibe is very nice. A good place to have brunch or to have coffee with friends but can be a little pricey, I won't lie. Smoothies and milkshakes are very nice here. Depending on which product, some of the health foods are actually cheaper here. Vegans love this place. Staff is friendly.

One of the best Jackson’s I’ve been to. Loved the location and decor. Service and coffee and WiFi also great. Great for a business coffee meeting. Next time I’m eating there too!

I am all in for supporting local produce farmers and knowing where your food comes from. When I was a child, my mother only bought our fruits and veggies from local farmers (when they still existed within our communities) and I recall how cleaning off the dirt was turned into a game and less of a chore by turning it a competitive sport. The simpler times of the 80's. Back then it was also far more economical to buy from farm to table, while it is far more expensive now, that going to Woolies or Checkers. I'm certain that the reason is, they are getting paid a very good price for very good produce. Well that is the hope. Much of what you can find at Jackson's is very good indeed. If you're after the 'Whole/Real Food' experience, Jackson's does it in great style and sometimes with good value for money. Sit down for a coffee and enjoy a birds eye view of the hustle and bustle below.

Who doesn’t like a french croissant for breakfast? I enjoyed it. And my cappuccino. Service was a bit slow. But that was ok. I luv’d the serenity of the place.

The food are very good, the staff are friendly, overall very good experience. However the service is bit slow and no one come to check up us unless called, maybe a bit caring is good.

Jackson’s is such a great spot. The simplicity of the café design with the natural light and open space made for a such a warm ambiance. I was excited to see they had Origin Coffee Beans, so the coffee was delicious as expected. Dean, our waiter was very knowledgeable about the menu, and let us know up front that we would be having the best burgers we’ve ever had. He was not wrong. The buns were fresh, with equally fresh ingredients. Both the beef and chicken burgers were scrumptious and exceeded expectations. Dean was great, following up with us throughout. It will be a regular spot for me when in South Africa, as their menu looks amazing. Prices were very reasonable for the quality and amount of food and being a more “organic and health conscious” restaurant. Wonderful experience from the staff and the food.

I came here for breakfast. The service and coffee were great but quite average food. However, the rainbow cake is amazing - fresh and moist.

Nice idea for self-grown veggies. The restaurant is situated inside the food store. It has got a stunning Midrand view if you prefer a ambient breakfast in the mornings. Lovely vegan options, good place to chill. Highly recommend.

We enjoy going to Jackson’s for breakfast and lunch. Its good quality food for a reasonable price. There is enough space between the tables which is ideal if you have a baby in a pram. Overall a very pleasant dining experience.

This is a great place for an healthy option. Food is ok but the service is terrible. My second time here and both times we waited very long for our food. This time round we waited more than an hour and they ran out of potato fries and only told us once the food was served.

Yum yum and yum! Firstly, it was a blistering hot day and the waiter made every effort to find us the best spot under the aircon and opened the windows so a breeze could pop by in!<br/><br/>I had a chipotle burger and my girlfriend had the chicken and avo wrap. Both were flavourful, well portioned and reasonably priced. <br/><br/>Definately will be back! ❤️

Love this spot. And the organic range is quite impressive. Best sourdough bread, love the food market and great service. The tofu is very nice.

Vegan life is always supported by this restaurant and grocery. Yummy and healthy. Atmosphere is great . Definately a come back restuarant. Price is worth the meal. Tasty dessert and smoothies.

Food fresh and great. Manager Michael unprofessional in speaking to staff and inhospitable in handing my request. Promised to reply but disappeared. Terry<br/>

I love the concept and planning behind it, I was highly disappointed with the service we received. We were seated down but they forgot about our table until we had to ask for assistance. The food didn’t meet my expectations as my bread was so hard and oily, I could barely take a bite of it. It’s a lovely spot for brunch overlooking a beautiful view of the suburb

Food is great, service as well. Love the selection of healthy drinks, I think thats the main go to for me. Just needs more variety in terms of the vegetarian selection since they don't cater for halaal.

Nothing but the best. Staff was quite friendly and service was swift, food very good. Unlike all the other restaurants at Kyalami Corner, it is tucked away in a corner & very easy to miss.

I’ve seen this place from afar while shopping at the center so I decided to pop in. It’s not in a very well seen area being on the upper level but I’m so glad I found it. This gem was like heaven for me. The food was delicious. My boyfriend and I had a chicken noodle bowl and a chicken and mayo respectively. I’m all for healthy eating but the food didn’t lack anything. The ambience is warm and modern. You get to shop their products before or after or even during. The service is slow though. I didn’t take any pictures as I was quite “hangry” when we got there. We even got takeaway “feel good” desserts and they too were delicious. They’re not as pricey as you’d think a health cafe would be. All in all, a good meal.

Good food,<br/>Healthy eating made simple. <br/>Best option for when on a healthy eating plan. <br/>Service is a little slow. <br/>Advantage of shopping before or after a meal. <br/>

Action Jackson... not really. <br/>Its a nice market with a great selection of responsible foods, vegetarian and vegan options, really good variety. A bit like a thrupps but without the hoity toityness. <br/>The cafe has a modern "with it" feeling menu and the price is not outrageous. We had a breakfast and a rueben (not on rye, sourdough). <br/>The food was pretty good, wholesome and fresh, the reuben was grand, the kraut on it was quite mild and the pickles sweet, just like america, but unlike america the bread was good. <br/>Partner's scramble on avo with bacon looked good, avo was a bit overbearing. <br/>We had a piece of milktart, it was ok, almond crust was a pleasant surprise. <br/><br/>All in pretty pleasant experience.

Jackson’s must have the friendliest staff out of all he places I’ve been too. They happy and there is always someone near by to assist or check if you need anything. <br/><br/>Food is fantastic too. I had the liver surprise and it has a lot of chicken livers and lots of flavor. The surprise was good too it needs a little more flavor but some fresh chili sorted that out.<br/><br/>Coffee is fantastic. <br/>The chocolate peanut butter smoothie had a surprising taste.

We have had breakfast here on multiple occasions. Always great service and the food is amazing! I love the freshness of the bread and the ingredients. The coffee is also great.

Love this place! So great to see a restaurant where there are quite a few vegan options. The market is awesome - bought some kombucha. Ordered a Buddha Bowl salad which was fresh and delicious. Service was great! Lovely airy atmosphere.

This is a recent addition to the complex with lots of floor space shared between the deli and the restaurant. Service was great. The menu has a wide variety. I ordered the pizza. The base is made with coconut flour, mozzarella and eggs. It’s tasty but a bit soft. The amount of toppings was very generous. The beef wrap was crammed with wholesome ingredients too. My fresh pressed juice was a nice combo of orange, carrot and cucumber. In the shop, you’ll find all sorts to eat as well as other items for the body and home.

Came here with a friend for lunch. It was lovely- the restaurant’s view was great and the waiters were all very friendly. We both had the burgers and they were not only delicious, they were quite healthy and satisfying too. The portion sizes were quite generous, however the juices and smoothies were quite expensive for their size. <br/><br/>If you are a fan of “proper junk” with all the preservatives and added sugar, you may not enjoy it as much. <br/><br/>Overall this was a pleasant experience and I will be returning soon.

So glad that places like these are coming to life in Gauteng. Awesome venue. Really good, healthy food. The omelette, smoothy, coffee and quiches was top notch. The banting cheese cake was quite dry unfortunately.

Awesome food... great service... Stunning views<br/>I highly recommend this amazing place.<br/>Really healthy AND tasty food.<br/>Will be back here often.
