Crema's Take

Jubala's new downtown Raleigh location nails the vibe with a cool, aesthetically elevated space that works equally well for a focused work session or a casual date, anchored by their espresso-focused craft and thoughtfully executed pour overs. The airy design features convenient booth seating and a pleasant outdoor area (with nearby parking deck access), though fair warning: the bar area gets genuinely loud even in the early morning if you're seeking quiet contemplation. Staff enthusiasm runs high here, and paired with solid pastries and light food options plus reliable wifi, it's become the standout among their locations for anyone wanting specialty coffee with real atmosphere.

Such a cute new location! The music is a bit loud in the dark seating near the bar area (even at 8AM) but overall, it’s a pleasant place. The staff were fantastic and I was lucky enough to visit on a free espresso Friday! Bathrooms are very clean and stocked with feminine hygiene products.

This was my first and very last time ever at this establishment because I suggested to take me my food to go but as I went to the restroom I saw tables. I place my order with a young lady that clearly disturbed but I placed my order of smoked sea salt carmel latte and sausage, egg sandwich but low and be hold I received a roll or biscuit without ANYTHING ......ohhhh they did remember the raspberry jam. I walked basically two blocks to my car and went home before seeing the nothing was on my biscuit or roll so I look to see if it was a number to call low and be hold nothing again.

I was so excited to try this new location! The Located in DT Raleigh, I wasn’t quite sure about the parking situation. However, there is a parking deck connected to the building. I just wish that they validated parking. I came during a weekday morning and it was decently but our food and drinks came out pretty fast. My friends and I ordered a few different drinks and food items. We shared a dark citrus waffle and egg and cheese biscuit. The dark citrus waffle was a masterpiece and equally tasty! Perfectly sweet. The egg and cheese biscuit was also great as well. I love their biscuits. I ordered an iced winter matcha which was also delicious. The presentation of all the food and drinks were great. I ordered a cuban sandwich with chips and side salad to go and i also enjoyed that! The inside of this place was so beautiful and had a moody vibe to it. It’s definitely a great spot to grab some breakfast/lunch/coffee with a friend

Gorgeous new location! Beautiful new location with more space and convenient booths. Nice outside area to sit. Little hard to find free/easy parking though.

This is the best Jubala! The vibes hit just right! So cool inside, the coffee at Jubala is always great, but the aesthetic here offers an even more elevated experience. Great for a date, work from home, or catch up with a friend. Their whole beans are delicious too! So cool! I like that there are multiple seating areas and options. It makes it perfect for any season or meetup activity. It's large and spacious, always room to sit! The coffee is always delicious. I like cappuccinos, espresso, and the Malabar Tea
