Drove from far to come here. Great place to get some work done, study, or catch up with friends…read more Their menu is projected on the wall which is unique and easy to reference. Quick service and I had no issues with staff. Got the Midori Lychee drink and tried samples of the Matcha and Ube flavored soft serve. The Ube was sweet and yummy while the Matcha was less sweet than I expected, but still sweet and decent. I won't lie, I liked matcha soft serve at another spot better than this place, but it hits the craving. The Lychee drink was refreshing and good. Loved the vibrant green colors in their drinks even after being mixed. Overall, good and not bad but I think I had higher expectations of the taste given this place is raved about on social media for this being a top tier matcha spot. It's decent, but not the best matcha drinks I've had.

Went to Jireh Bakery Cafe this past weekend and had a mostly good experience. The service was…read moregreat--I asked if they could split two full-size Thai tea boba drinks in half for my little ones, and they happily did it with no hesitation. Even with four cups, they still filled mine generously, which I really appreciated. The disappointment came once we started drinking. It honestly tasted like milk with unsweetened boba. I don't mind if the boba isn't sweet as long as the drink has enough flavor, but in this case, the milk flavor was overpowering, and the tea was barely noticeable. We also ordered a bean pastry, which was surprisingly delicious! It was sweet, and if you didn't know it was made with beans, you probably wouldn't even notice. Overall, I'd be open to going back. I'm not sure if the overly milky flavor was a fluke from splitting the drinks or if that's just their usual recipe. The café itself is cute with cozy vibes. It's right off a main road (Route 29). Parking is available on the side and in the back, and there's a decent amount of seating. Just note they close at 9 PM, so if you're looking for a late-night café spot, this may not be the best option.

I love this TLJ spot! And they have Shakerato, which surprisingly not every TLJ carries. It's…read morebasically a creamy espresso drink with vanilla syrup and oat mylk, my absolute favorite! The ambiance here is really nice too. It wasn't too crowded on a Friday afternoon, so there were plenty of seats available. This location isn't huge, but it's cozy and comfortable enough to hang out or get some work done. Always find myself stopping by whenever I'm in Centreville.

The renovations/re-decorating they did is fantastic. Very clean and pretty space. Coffee comes out quickly. Only con is that they do not offer any Wi-Fi, but likely to keep people from camping out. They have a huge selection of pastries, breads, cakes, and macarons. Some of them are hit or miss, but I think eventually you will find the items that fit your personal preference. Our faves so far: ~Iced Americano ~Tiramisu Latte ~Jalapeño Cheddar croissant ~Croquettes ~Milk bread ~Macarons: the floral ones are my favorite, but not for everyone

So many fresh pastries and desserts to choose from! Everything looks amazing!…read more Love the tiramisu king donut! So decadent! Their hazelnut latte was good and creamy. Order with half and half! The flavor profile is amazing !! I wish there was more seating though!

BLUF: I'd maybe lean a little more toward a 3.5 star rating for the great service we received. The…read morepastries themselves looked wonderful. Taste was decent. Nothing that made me say, "Mmmmmmm, this is really good!" Coffee drinks are expensive for smalls & also just kinda ordinary. It's a great place to meet up with friends & family, but it's also a small venue that can get really squishy during peak times (e.g., early morning, after dinner). Worth the drive? This is tough. It's a good place to meet up & the food & beverages aren't horrible, so to connect with people, yes, worth it. For the food? Not exactly. Seriously, everything looked absolutely wonderful. Makes one want to buy everything in sight. Textures are great. Light, fluffy bread on red bean bun. The filling nothing special. Same with the blueberry pastry... nothing super yummy & not much filling. Couldn't taste the blueberry. Kinda disappointing. So, while I'd not go out of my way for their baked goods & coffee, I'd definitely nosh on something while hanging out with friends as long as we could find seats. To me it's a destination for meeting up and not one to go out of your way for out of this world sweet treats. Gotta pick up a cake on short notice or pastries to take to an office potluck? It's a convenient location for this.

I've come a few times since they've expanded the space and the sheer volume of people just seems like something they are struggling to handle. We went recently and there were little available tables. When we found one, we realized someone had left their plates after leaving and it had not been cleaned. We bussed the table ourselves and then wiped it. After we sat, someone came around and asked if the table had been wiped (we told them we already handled it). I ordered avocado toast and added a poached egg. When the food came out, I realized there was no poached egg. I went up to the register to let them know so one could be thought out. They looked at my check and realized the cashier never added it. They then asked me to pay for it and they could send one out. I waited 20+ minutes while my toast got soggy for this egg... I really wished this had been handled better and put a bad taste in my mouth. Better customer service is an area of opportunity here.

I always go for the classic Pearl Milk Tea or Taro Milk Tea. I used to go for the Dirty Brown Sugar MT, but I prefer the plain classic MT to get my boba fix.

We've been here numerous times and have not been let down at all. Well, maybe when we miss out on cool toys/gadgets, then that sucks. It won't deter us from coming back.
