    Pleasant cafe at the heart of Nanyuki town. The terrace seating arrangement is well done accomodating both solo and group foodies. I went there for a laptop work session and was happy to see the sockets at the edge of the seat that's easily accessible. They also have WIFI coverage that you can use for email and work documents without any trouble. The only downside of seating at the terrace is that it attracts a lot of smokers so for non-smokers this might be a bit of a bother. The food was lovely too. Tried the curry noodle and loved it. The service was also good but may take time especially during peak hours. Loved the selection of music too and it wasn't too loud. Another plus are the clean and private washrooms.

    I got excited when we stopped over for lunch at this nice looking cafe only to be disappointed by the waiter and the food brought to me. As a vegan, I only wanted to have Ugali and Spinach without the ribs of course but the guy serving us acted like I was requesting for something the kitchen couldn’t handle. The spinach came and they had put cream in it 😞 The cafè is amazing, clean and a place I’d spend a couple of hours just enjoying drinks with friends. I’d recommend but if you’re vegan, pray that they can easily adjust and cook you something you’d enjoy.

    All in all a good experience. The place is a quite nice spot, but the music inside was extremely loud, for a dining place. It was more of a club feeling than a restaurant. At the tables "outside", the level was better. The service was very professional for being Kenya. Our waiter was very attentive, without being disturbing. He also followed us up well during the whole visit. Drinks arrived fast, and was as expected. Food took a while, but it's seldom happing fast in Kenya. The food was well prepared and presented, but unfortunately the quality of the meat was at the border of acceptable. Being told that the owner also have a butcher shop, that shouldn't been an issue. All in all a place we might be visiting again, to give it a second chance. And the main reason for that, is the excellent waiter.

    Its quite a beautiful place with great lighting and decor. Slow music to go along with the ambience. I did like the food. Great taste. The chefs really outdid themselves. The drinks too are really good. Cocktails were well blended. Not many restaurants have them as jib's did. The only downside side was the service. It was quite wanting. Our waiter served us, and later didn't bother with us. We weren't given hand towels to sanitise, we were left unattended the whole time when we needed to ask for several things. They kept on going back and forth to the whites' tables. We even had to go to the counter and ask for our bill. Well the food was great but with poor service it is never good enough.

    If you live in or you're simply passing through Nanyuki Town, then Jib's Cafe is the place to stop-by. I personally fancy a good cup of coffee. I've tasted coffee from all the fancy restaurants in Nanyuki and none comes close to the brew served at Jibs. Pizzas are absolutely phenomenal. I don't know if the Italian Brick oven has something to do with it but damn! They are excellent. The Mixologist at the bar is a wizard at shaking you up a quick cocktail and I'm definitely going back for more.

    Jibs Hotel offered an exceptional dining experience. The BBQ honey wings, poussin wings, Maru Bhajia, Sweet Potato fries, and vanilla latte I enjoyed were outstanding. The attentive service and pleasant atmosphere make it a top recommendation.

  • 5/5 Rachel O. 11 months ago on Google
    I love Jib’s. A must visit restaurant when you are in Nanyuki. The prices are great for the quality of food and service they offer. You can also grab drinks both alcoholic and non alcoholic. They have quite a range, again their price point is good. The butter chicken and naan was fantastic, a 12/10. Highly recommend. My friend wanted chicken soup, but I believe the way it’s stated in the menu was a bit confusing as he got boiled chicken served aside, but the soup was not from the same chicken. It was prepared separately. Also, please increase the soup portion, it’s quite little when you compare it to the rice portion. Aside from this everything else was fantastic, the staff are very friendly and the service is impeccable. The owner Jibran is also really good with guests. The place is kid friendly and they also have games that you can play, the likes of Monopoly and Scrabble.

    It's a chilled place. The outside eating area is nice. Their pizza was really good. They are generous with their toppings. If you are craving some good pizza in Nanyuki Jibs is a really nice place to go eat.

    My experience at Jib's Cafe Bistro was fantastic. The cozy ambiance and attentive staff made it a welcoming place. The menu offered a delightful array of dishes, and I particularly enjoyed the flavorful options they had. The attention to detail in both presentation and taste showcased the commitment to quality. Whether it was a casual coffee catch-up or a hearty meal, Jib's delivered a satisfying dining experience. The reasonable prices added to the overall appeal, making it a go-to spot for me. I would highly recommend Jib's Cafe Bistro for anyone looking for a great meal in a cozy setting.

  • 5/5 Sabrina C. 9 months ago on Google
    Great gem in Nanyuki. The staff were friendly and the service excellent. There is a good varied menu and food was very good. Cocktails were amazing. The cake for desert was slightly dry but overall I would definitely recommend this place to others!

    Of beautiful spaces and people. Been here severally and every time feels like a new experience. When you know people who serve you by names, undoubtedly that's home. From their lovely bar man Davido to the waiters Patrick, who is so kind, Bett, very welcoming, Kevin with his charming smile and Jeff who is always a beckon away and ready to serve and Berna who always goes out of her way to make you feel home. Always worth returning. From me and my lovely friend Sialo 😊

    There's no disappointment greater than that of an over salted dish.Unfortunately the chicken tikka was too salty for my palette.. and that coming from someone who likes salty snacks. Cool place and friendly staff tho. I might give it a second chance but I'm definitely not going to order this curry again.

  • 5/5 Timo Gatu G. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a pleasant cafe at the heart of Nanyuki town, with scrumptious food. The terrace seating arrangement is well done to accomodate singles and couples.

  • 3/5 Ed K. 5 months ago on Google
    The food is very hit and miss, when it's good it's mind blowing, but, that's what makes the lows really annoying. The breakfast service is the worst. No consistency, staff seem irritated by your questions and if you find a busy breakfast session just know it will be mediocre. Dinner time however is a different story, the service is good, very friendly staff, and the food is also good. Worth a try.

    What a charming little place in the heart of Nanyuki town. Great decor, excellent service and a wonderful vibe. My steak was abit tough and over seasoned but that didn't dim the overall experience. I would definitely recommend it for sundowners and a chill spot.

  • 1/5 Joanne N. 3 years ago on Google
    Absolute disgrace. They sent 2 wrong pizzas but still charged us for what we ordered so massively overpaid. Also meant 2 went without food and stated wouldn't change or give money back. Will be advising people to get pizza's elsewhere if wanting a good service
