Jubala on Hillsborough Street has, hands down, the best biscuit in town and you can tell they're homemade!! We're regulars here, and the bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit is our go-to. It's delicious, filling, and consistently hits the spot every time. The coffee is also very solid, making this a great place to grab breakfast. It's easy to see why this spot is so popular, especially with its location right by NC State's campus. My only word of advice is to expect a bit of a wait, particularly on weekends. Between the students and the overall popularity of the place, it can get pretty busy. That said, the line is absolutely worth it for a biscuit this good. If you're in Raleigh and looking for a top-tier breakfast sandwich, Jubala should be on your list. That bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit is worth every minute! read more

Idk what's going on with this location but almost everything was kind of off. Cold brew was good, but caramel latte was bad. Cookie was ok. The vibe is.. par-baked. I'm sure it's the same at the other locations but it just didn't taste great here. Bathroom is also shared with the Aloft and the vibes are not good lol. Will stick to the Lafayette Village location! read more

Jubala Coffee is a casual coffee spot serving drinks and light food! There is parking in a lot next door or on the street. The space inside can get cramped at certain times of the day, but they try to make most of it with tables and booths. Service was friendly and quick. I got the Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Biscuit. The biscuit was a bit sweet which paired interestingly with the savory bacon, egg, and cheese. I think I prefer a savory or salty biscuit, but it was still good. i'll I really enjoyed the fried egg because of the runny yolk, especially since most of these biscuits use a scrambled egg so this was unique to me. The bacon and cheese on their own were also good. My friends and I shared a Fruit Cup/Bowl which was actually refreshing. The fruit was actually sweet and not tart! I did not try their drinks, although I probably should have considering how well-liked they are. I would come back if I was in the area to try the other items on their menu. Plus, this is a nice work or study spot. read more

This was a campus coffee shop, but NC State is an urban campus, so non-collegians can easily walk in (if you can find parking). I came in search of the best chai in town and I may have found it, with a robust spice mix that seemed to include nutmeg and a sweet and smooth flavor that lasted a while. They had some food options, and the ample seating was quite crowded. read more

This place was great - because it's on a college campus, it managed to somehow be high energy and chill at the same time. It sort of gave Panera + local cafe vibes - I enjoyed it. I ordered the cinnamon glaze waffle + hot Almond Latte with oat milk and they were both delicious. The waffle is a total dessert - sweet and coated in sugar crystals YUMMM. Oh, and to make it even better, the each little cell of the waffle was filled with the glaze so each bite was perfection. The latte was also SOOO good - smooth & beautifully presented. The staff were friendly and welcoming - even though they were busy, the vibe was great between the staff and when the staff was engaging with the customers. I know the 2 staff members I spoke with were wonderful and kind. The outdoor seating did offer a great view of the bell tower, road and foot traffic. It was lovely and relaxing. read more

They half-fill your cup! Total rip off! And when I pointed it out he refused to fill it.

I had the tahini cardamom latte and it was the best thing I've ever had. Ever. So yummy and unique. We split the blueberry waffle and it was delicious and savory and sweet! Highly recommend! read more

Such a cute spot with delicious coffee and drop biscuits. I ordered a decalf oatmilk latte and drop biscuit with bacon, egg, cheese & avocado. The biscuit has the perfect texture and great flavor.

I reviewed this great coffee shop two years ago. it has been my to go place for years to do some admin work and enjoy some amazing coffee and food. It pains me to change my review from 5 stars to 3 stars. The last few times I have been here (started about 2-3 months ago) the food and coffee has been inconsistent. Consistency has been one of the main reasons why I drive 25 minutes to get here. It has been hit or miss the last 4 times I have come. Not sure if staff changes or how busy it has been getting has shifted things bit. Today my vanilla latte was luke warm and the biscuit was undercooked and falling apart. Still a great spot but just some feedback as a huge Jubala fan read more

What a cute, quaint, unassuming spot! This spot is probably no secret to the students in the area, but as a newcomer to the Raleigh area - it was a treat to find this little spot! The coffee, cozy vibe, food options, and outside seating was delightful! On a weekend morning, it was fairly busy but there was high turnover for outdoor seating! read more

I'm not usually a tea person, but I decided to try their peach tea since I wanted something more refreshing than coffee. The flavor was pretty mild but once I added sweetener, it was actually pretty good! I didn't order any food and was a little disappointed by their lack of dairy-free food options (only option was the fruit cup according to the barista), but my friends tried the sandwich, waffle, avocado toast, and biscuits and they all enjoyed what they ordered. read more

Jubala has the cutest decor and best coffee. They're biscuits are a little sweet and compliment the savoriness and saltiness in their bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich. We ordered 10 drinks and 7 sandwiches and the staff had the sandwiches ready in a timely manner. Everyone was friendly and had great recommendations. read more

I like that they have house made syrup options. However the coffee is just okay. Nice interior, although it may be crowded and hard to find seating. Worth a try but not at the top of my list. read more

What a nice surprise to find a Jubala coffee near NCSU! I've been to the one in Lafayette village and did not realize they have three Raleigh locations (North Raleigh, North Hills, and Hillsborough street by NCSU). The coffee and tea is just as good and pretty as the Lafayette village location. Maybe I went at a less busy time, but it was quick and easy to order and find a seat. Due to the heat I decided to dine inside. I placed an order at the counter and chose a seat at the table beside the kitchen. The blueberry pearl waffle and London fog latte arrived shortly. Now I'm sure they are more impressive since I don't know how they are made, but I don't care, I'll continue to be impressed and choose pearl sugar waffles whenever they are offered. This one in particular was larger than others I have seen and filled with delicious blueberries! The London fog accompanied the waffle well. The temperature was perfect, the design clear and aesthetic, and the flavor was present and faint (not overpowering). Overall, lovely place for breakfast, brunch, and coffee/tea! Parking: nearby lot and street parking available (free and paid options) Employees: welcoming, friendly, and helpful Atmosphere: typical university coffee shop vibe. Reasonable noise level. Noise mainly from conversations and customers making phone calls. Bathrooms: located down the hall out the side door towards the Aloft foyer. Bathrooms are clean and well stocked. read more

Every time I come home, I also make it a point to come to this outstanding coffee shop to get coffee and food. This time we got the pumpkin spice latte, and then biscuits (one bacon, egg, and cheese and one with blueberry compote). Both were really good and the coffee is excellent. The waffle maker wasn't working, but in the past the waffles are also incredible. A must stop by if in the area. read more

Delicious! I stopped by for lunch on Juneteenth and there was free parking in the street since it was a holiday. It's also nice in the summer when school is out and it's a little bit slower. I got the turkey avocado sandwich and it did not disappoint. The sandwich was grilled so the cheese and turkey was hot and melted. The avocado was fresh and it was nice to add the arugula on top of the sandwich. I'd definitely visit again. read more

Our son is at NC State as a Freshman and we are locals that pass this location several times a week. We have been wanting to try it and we finally made it a priority. We arrived after 4pm and didn't realize they closed at 5pm, so maybe that's why we really weren't greeted warmly. We both got the almond latte and it was delicious, not overly sweet and the temperature was perfect. We got a spot to sit outside and enjoyed a nice breeze while we drank our coffee. We had a perfect view of the State Bell tower and enjoyed watching the graduates taking their photos in their cap and gowns. We will definitely be back to try other menu items and enjoy the outside. read more

So I left a review a few years back. And I gotta say I still love this place. It's in my top 5 coffee shops in the whole country. The baristas here are all so sweet too. Would give 6 stars out of 5. Also, get the drop biscuit, thank me later ;) read more

This place really set the tone for cafe vibes. I am not much of a coffee drinker myself so I can't say for all, but the service here was great (and so were the customers). Not to mention very well priced!!! The ambience was great. There were plenty of seats outside and inside. The baristas were positioned both on the side and in a sort of island in the middle. You can see your food being prepared in real-time as well. Personally I ordered the almond latte and it was super flavorful. The portion sizes are amazing as well. I'm used to quickly finishing mugs as they are wide but typically shallow, but the ones here are deeeeeep. I think I Lowkey got full off of the latte. I was visiting from out of state but I would definitely come back if visiting Raleigh again! read more

Walking distance from our DoubleTree hotel on Hillsborough. Super cute corner location with plenty of parking spots. What we ordered: - Espresso Tonic - Black Cherry Affogato - Banana Nutella Waffle - Sparkling Yuzu-ade Our black affogato came with NO ESPRESSO. We thought that maybe their espresso was already mixed into the ice cream for some reason but after tasting it we quickly figured out it wasn't. We started eating the ice cream on our waffle because we were so confused and thought maybe it was for the waffle. We were almost finished with our whole meal before someone came by saying they forgot to give it to us. By that point most of the black cherry ice cream was gone so our ratio was completely off. Last photo reflects this. They didn't apologize or offer more ice cream to offset their mistake, which is disappointing. The waffle was good, it was very crunchy. If you like a more crunchy waffle definitely try. Everything else was solid besides for the mixup and customer service. read more

The fried egg-cheese-bacon breakfast biscuit is OUT-STAND-ING. Best in the City and frankly our team's favorite that we've encountered anywhere on the road. Coffees and draft matcha latte (with oat milk) also excellent. Parking sucks, but otherwise a hard 5/5. read more

Some of the greatest tasting coffee has come from this cafè! Every time my wife and I visit Raleigh, one of our first stops is Jubala Coffee. The drinks may be small, but packs a powerful punch that will last throughout the day. The flavor in every brew I've had has been amazing. Every experience here (sorry if this is my first review) is nice partially because of the welcoming staff. Awesome customer service. Quick with the orders and greeting everyone happily. So far, every location has been the same vibe. They're all clean, so I see they have a standard and continued to uphold that standard. Cannot wait to visit Raleigh again so I can stop by Jubala Coffee (at any location) and post an epic review with some nice pictures to follow. read more

Amazing place to go for an upscale experience while having your morning coffee! My personal favorite is a drop biscuit and an almond latte. The balance of the lattes are consistently delightful, and the staff are always pleasant. Though it is my go to beverage choice, I find it odd that the almond latte comes standard with whole milk instead of its obvious alternative (almond milk). Overall, I always love coming here and definitely recommend it for a nice morning or mid afternoon treat! read more

Fast and friendly service. The ambiance is of a classic hipster cafe. Free WiFi is available if you want to study here. The food is amazing. The bread is fresh homemade sourdough. Avocado toast is amazing and the waffles are unlike any other waffle I've had. The waffles have these crystallized sugar sprinkles within the batter and the peanut butter is homemade as well. I personally haven't tried the biscuits but my friend Jordan always orders one. My mom said it that she had one of the top three lattes of her life from here so the coffee is great. Beans are locally roasted at black and white. The latte art is always adorable. Free water is available as well. Seating inside and outside. I prefer outside being able to look at the bell tower and bikes and dogs walking by. They also have free espresso Friday which is always a can't miss for my friend group. read more

Jubala never disappoints! The biscuits are amazing, and the drinks are really well crafted. The chai tea lattes are particularly strong and flavorful. I love coming here around breakfast time, as it gets a bit crowded heading into brunch. The staff is really nice, and there's plenty of outdoor seating, which is great when we bring the dogs. The indoors are the first place to become crowded because it's a great WFH spot. Definitely a must-try coffee spot in Raleigh. read more

Great spot to stop for coffee in North Hills. They do always seem crowded so make sure you order ahead or have time to wait. Crowded inside even during the week, but a good amount of seating. My order is always correct and I have no complaints. read more

This spot is so cute! Nice, crisp & modern! This location is on a street setting with street or paid parking during the weeks days but the weekend you can park in the parking lot. There's also outside seating which is perfect on a nice day. You walk in place your order, once your order is placed you receive number for your table. I ordered the drop biscuit bacon, egg, & cheese (if you don't like sunny side up eggs please let them know) I didn't know and was surprised when I bit into the sandwich but nonetheless it was good. Customer service was great, restaurant nice & clean, bathroom adjoining the Aloft hotel. Will definitely revisit if I'm in the area. read more
