    One of the best for a quiet Sunday morning breakfast w a good book. Big windows and high ceiling w plenty of natural light, chill music, low traffic. What's not to love? The food though, it's rather flat and unappetizing compared to other Javas...anyone else think so?

    Beautiful setting and nice outdoor seating. It might get very busy in the afternoons. The management was very nice to us and brought another serve of pancake, after the first order was not it's standards. Generally I enjoy Java 🏡 - especially their coffee. My favorite is either cappuccino or espresso ☕️.

    It used to be a nice place but currently the menu is not like how it used to be a lot of signature dishes have been removed from the menu it also doesn't have a section for drinks like before so the waiter/waitress has to tell you which beverage is available and that alone is a cut off for me..the food is quite okay on a scale of 10 i would rate it at 4 because i know java can do better.

    Slowest Service in any Java you'll go to. Too many online orders prioritized over orders of walk-in customers. Java needs to increasing the staffing in the kitchen during peak hours

    Probably the most elusive Java in town, tucked in Upperhill's medical center. Seemed like the go-to lunch spot for doctors and medical personnel around Nairobi Hospital. The vibe is busy as you'd expect, making this outlet ideal for business, swing bys and takeaways

    Delivered, as always. My mom couldn't stop talking about that beautiful African woman painting on the wall. Two things I disliked: put the sink back into the restaurant, having it outside is bizarre💀😂, increase the portions, very tiny, luckily they're well cooked. ✨

    The location is perfect, in a quiet and serene environment. It's setting is definitely one of the best Java's I have been to. And most importantly the customer service is on point and as always I love Java food, it never goes wrong:)

    I came here to have brunch around 11:00 am. The waiters came right away with the menu and we ordered some tea and pastry to start, the orders came in an ok timing, eventhough I had a paper cup for my tea instead of a proper mug but until then it was all ok. I called on a waiter to order food, he said just a minute, 10 minutes later I had to call on the waitress which also said just a minute, afew minutes later she came and we ordered. Then in over half an hour the branch manager "a nice guy" came and ask if we are ok, we said we ordered food but it's taking long, he went to the kitchen apologized and said it doesn't usually take this much and he is on it. Around 15 minutes later the food finally arrived. The food was excellent to be honest this is why I gave the place 3 stars instead of the 1 star I was thinking to give. I added the menu for you guys to have an idea about the food and the prices.

    This place is clean but don't wait for excellent service. I was asked to pay before placing my order and made to wait for 15 minutes for Java Dawa. They almost served me cold drink only that I asked the waiter to warm it again.

    I have been here severally. Bit there is total disorganisation. You take more than half an hour before being attended and another half an hour before you get your food. Pls do something. Looks like there is understaffing pls do something.

  • 3/5 Truphena O. 9 months ago on Google
    Every time I eat here, there's something off. Today my pancake tasted like grilled chicken, the other day my avocado cheese tomato sandwich had bad lettuce and little to no avocado. Another day they served me lemonade with no ice cubes -they were out of ice cubes but didn't think to tell me when I placed my order. I could go on and on. Very different from other Javas.

    When I visited this branch, it was not as busy as before (especially on Sundays). The food quality was good but service could have been better.

  • 5/5 Wachuka T. 1 year ago on Google
    Met Rose and Hellen today evening who were really nice and kind to me. Helped me get my order after a really long day. Thank you! Their dawa as usual is always a hit.
