Recently, I had the pleasure of visiting Jana Coffee, a charming coffee shop located on Othaya Rd, Nairobi, Kenya. I walked in at mid-morning with high expectations, and let me tell you, I was not disappointed!
Upon entering, the inviting aroma of freshly roasted coffee enveloped me, and I was greeted with warmth by the staff. The bartender, David, stood out with his friendly demeanor and extensive knowledge about the coffee offerings. He is truly passionate about coffee, which translated beautifully into the service I received.
At Jana Coffee, they specialize in sourcing, roasting, and serving some of Africa's finest coffees, including both Kenyan and Ethiopian blends. After browsing the menu, I opted for the Single Origin Ethiopian Coffee priced reasonably at KES 300. David recommended it, and I was intrigued by its fruity notes and hint of chocolate.
The first sip was magical! The coffee was rich and full-bodied, bursting with flavors that danced on my palate. It was undoubtedly one of the best cups of coffee I've ever tasted. If you're a coffee lover, this is a must-try!
While I savored my coffee, I couldn't resist indulging in some of their delectable bakery offerings. The Akara caught my eye—a Nigerian bean cake that was freshly prepared, and for only KES 150, it felt like a steal. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, the Akara paired perfectly with the coffee, creating a delightful harmony of tastes.
Another treat from their bakery that I couldn't resist was the Chin Chin, a sweet and crunchy snack that was priced at KES 100. It was simply divine! The combination of flavors made my visit more enjoyable and satisfying.
The ambiance at Jana Coffee is inviting and cozy, making it an ideal spot for relaxing alone or catching up with friends. The layout is comfortable, allowing for easy conversation and interaction with baristas who clearly take pride in their craft.
I visited Jana Coffee around 10 AM on a lovely Saturday, where I enjoyed not only wonderful food and beverages but also the friendly atmosphere created by the staff.
In conclusion, if you're in Nairobi, I highly recommend making a visit to Jana Coffee on Othaya Rd. Whether you're in the mood for a robust cup of coffee, a crisp Akara, or some delightful Chin Chin, you won't regret it. The combination of quality offerings and exceptional service is truly a winning formula!
