    Ordered the seasonal Matcha cucumber spritz and an egg and cheese biscuit. The biscuit has a slight sweetness to it and added to the overall flavor of the biscuit. Great breakfast sandwich. The choices of breakfast items and flavors of biscuits was really impressive. They did have outdoor seating both at the front and rear of the restaurant. The matcha cucumber spritz was not my favorite, next time I'll stick to a regular matcha latte. Overall, this is a great coffee shop with more than coffee.

    This place is amazing! I ordered a sausage egg & cheese biscuit and it was absolutely incredible. The prices are reasonable and the portion size was more than enough. There was quite the wait but it's because it was a very busy Sunday; totally worth the wait either way. Next time I have to try the coffee. I'll be back!

    Jubala Coffee has been my new favorite coffee spot in the Raleigh area. The coffee there is amazing and tastes authentic. My favorite is their iced vanilla latte with an extra shot of vanilla syrup; I like mine more on the sweeter side, lol. The staff there is welcoming, and it's always a great experience with them. There's a reason why they're always busy: their team and coffee are the best! You can always expect me to go back and visit for an iced vanilla latte!

    The very first time I came in here is extremely crowded and very busy, which makes sense because they do make good coffee However, I left not feeling quite satisfied due to other things... Today when I went in to discuss with the person working the front counter, what I experience, she did not hesitate to make things right! Her name is Emma. She was super friendly had great recommendations & was extremely accommodating. The staff here are all friendly, young and vibrant I see a lot of people here working on their computers or catching up with friends. The building is energetic and I would definitely recommend this place to grab a quick coffee. Thank you, Emma for your outstanding customer service today because of the care you showed I will be coming back

    Jubala is located in Lafayette Village and has entry from both the parking lot and the courtyard sides. Parking at Lafayette village can be frustrating mid-day but there is a parking garage on the other side. I've been to Jubala twice and they've been packed both visits. However, they're very quick and efficient. The cashiers have always been nice and friendly, the baristas are definitely focused on their work. The iced mocha was delicious when I had it the first time. This visit, I had the iced coconut latte and while it was good, it didn't have any notes of coconut. I've never ordered food from here so I can't review that. The coffee is fine, nothing to rave about and not memorable, except for how pricey the coffee is for the size. I will say that this is a good place to meet up with friends and have a chat in the courtyard. It's very relaxing. On top of that, if you order food, the staff will bring it out to you which is such a nice perk.

    Great coffee and tea! The service was friendly and the lines moved along rather quickly. Will be back to try other food menu items

    Peppermint mocha.
    Kevin B.

    Stopped at Jubala Coffee on a cold, winter morning in Raleigh looking for something to warm up with and this spot was perfect! Located in sort of a small shopping village, Jubala Coffee was packed with customers and made for a nice place to have a warm drink and a quick bite to eat. Not usually one to go for a specialty drink, the peppermint mocha was calling my name ('Tis the Season) and I am so glad that I went for it. The drink was artfully crafted and tasted delicious and helped warm the bones. The biscuits sounded too good to pass up and once again there was zero regret adding a biscuit into the mix. I opted for the biscuit with raspberry jam and the biscuit was the perfect amount of flaky balanced wit some texture and the warm biscuit with jam on it would be something you could eat every day and not grow tired of. Would definitely check out this place again if ever back in the Raleigh area!

    Iced Seasonal Latte and country ham biscuit
    Hayley P.

    I was blessed with a Jubala breakfast this morning, which is always a pleasure. Country ham, egg, and cheese sandwich was absolutely divine. I forgot that their biscuit has a sweeter taste to it, which mixed well. I didn't get pimento cheese this time but don't let that stop you - I've had it before on my biscuit and it's delicious. Then the seasonal latte - I'm a sucker for anything with coconut in it and one sip was all I needed to know this is now my favorite drink here. Surprised at how not busy it was coming in at 8am on a Friday. The staff was quick to get my food out and the noise level was moderate for a busy cafe. Once again, Jubala hits the spot.

    Turkey advo and iced latte

    Fantastic coffee, great food, friendly staff. You can tell this place does it really well by the amount of customers here on a Saturday.

    Turk Turkey Avocado, add bacon
    Jaime S.

    Jubala is a whole vibe!!! My daughter and I order the Turkey Avocado Sandwich (and add bacon) for takeout at least once a month, it's soooo good! When not ordering takeout, it's a great place to dine in and catch up with a friend, get some work done while having a good cup of coffee or tea, or sitting outside when the weather is nice and people watching. They have great food and great coffee, so fresh and full of flavor. The staff is friendly and attentive, you can get your order in a pretty decent time frame from ordering, even on the busiest of days.

    Hot turmeric tea
    Sarah M.

    Went to Jubala coffee today to enjoy a drink and bite while reading my book. My husband got the basic iced coffee and I got a hot turmeric tea. We also split one of their sweet biscuits with fresh blueberry compote. The coffee and tea were solid (we ordered pretty basic things and they were executed well). The biscuit was delicious as was the blueberry compote - the biscuit had a hint of sweetness and was a bit crumbly but not too much. The blueberry compote tasted fresh and sweet. We got our food and drinks quickly, so no complaints on the service. The main complaint I have is that this is not a relaxing environment - there was nonstop clanking and loud noises for the full 1.5 hours we were there. It was not a peaceful environment to relax and read a book. My husband had to blast music in his ears to be able to concentrate on his work amidst all the noise. I would recommend sitting outside if you want some more peace, weather permitted. We will likely be back to try their waffle and sandwiches, but will try to get outside seating next time.

    This coffee shop has an awesome, chill vibe with friendly people and excellent coffee. I love stopping by on Friday mornings to get some work done and treat myself to a tasty drink and snack.

    Smoked sea salt caramel latte
    Sonia K.

    Checked out Jubala Coffee in the little France location for a warm drink on a cooler Raleigh day. I tried the smoked sea salt caramel latte, which the staff said was personally better than the iced. It was very yummy and had strong flavors per the name. My friend tried the hot chocolate. However, it was a little disappointing and tasted more like steamed milk with very little to no chocolate. The coffee shop itself is very nice, clean, and offers plenty of indoor seating.

    Do not order the Chai. It is undrinkable. Syrup sweet. Awful. Not real. Other than that, it's in a nice shopping area.

I have tried about half of their regular fare and they never disappoint. The only reason I'm giving four stars instead of five is it seems some people camp out there to get work done for hours on end. It makes those of us who want to just get out of a normal office setting to enjoy some coffee and a snack have a hard time finding a spot. Other than that, love the casual vibe and change of pace.

The barista was friendly and prompt in service and thoughtful in the coffee prep. The ambiance was a small and quiet coffee shop in an office complex during a work day. We were the only customers there for that period. Parking was easy and the shop was quiet. There were a handful of pastries wrapped in plastic which did not look particularly fresh and therefore we did not order. There were a handful of sandwiches in the fridge which were obviously premade that made us wonder how fresh they were and so we also did not order. The barista poured us a plastic cup of water to share. The butcher block table that we sat at was high quality as were the chairs. The decoration in the window of small air plants hanging in each window was understated and charming. We likely will not be back thru no fault of the shop. We live 23 minutes away in North Raleigh. This is all to say it was a bit of a trek all the more notable for what i would say was a simple if high quality experience.
