Jirani is a wonderful small coffee shop with delicious coffee and food, plus a great atmosphere and friendly staff. Theyre being very safe with Covid-19 precautions in the recent times as well.
The atmosphere here is a whole vibe! Its an incredibly cute spot located on Main Street, serving great coffee, tasty treats, good music, and lots of smiles!! Its positioned right in front of the train station and next to the Harris Pavilion, making it the perfect spot for a first date or to catch up with friends. The owners are sweet as well, and I fully support this black-owned business!
Always a good time. Inspirational, exciting, calming, and unique. You feel like you are home. Also the coffee is on point.
Excellent coffee houseI stopped in halfway through my bike ride.This was during some type of fest.I was impressed by their coffee, very good.Theyre accompanying pastries were superb as well.The staff looked bogged down and unrushed by a moderate line of people, but still maintained a friendly demeanor.The atmosphere was very welcoming. Nice place to spend a full evening in.
Cool little coffee house right across from the train station in Manassas. I had a capocino, which was delicious, and relaxed in one of the comfy chairs for a while. A good place to hang out on a cool day, drink coffee and watch the trains go by.
Such a great welcoming environment! Red velvet cake is topppppp tier wow
Good to see Andrew back!! Who was that girl making googly eyes at him?
Love the space! Everyone here is super nice and they have great coffee and pastries. Outdoor seating is plentiful and bathrooms are nice and clean.
Great place to reflect and write.. get the creative juices flowing while sipping delicious coffee
Both coffee and cakes were great. Staffs were really nice and friendly! Hope to come back again and again
The perfect coffeehouse vibe. Service has always been incredibly welcoming and friendly. I love visiting this place whenever I am in Manassas either to catch up with friends or to work or read. I love the super delightful side room equipped with bookshelves and an intellectual but lighthearted ambiance, which is unfortunately closed currently due to COVID reasons I assume. I hope they can get the live music going again as well, as that is the finishing touch on a lovely place of respite.
Great space..baristas are good..really good red velvet cake and other goodies to have with your coffee drink.
Best vanilla latte I’ve ever had!
Its very tough to pin down. I visited with to acquaintances and we all order a different drink. We all aggreed thought that something was off with each of our individual drink.
Starbucks who? A wonderful spot to get a cup of coffee with a calming atmosphere. Easily one of the best chill spots of Manassas. Staff is friendly and the baked goods are to die for.
Great London fog and cranberry scone. Very cozy atmosphere. I met some friends at night, not realizing there was a function starting shortly after our meet up, so it was really loud. On another night, it wouldve been perfect for quiet meet ups.
This is one of the cutest coffee shops Ive ever been to. Its large and roomy, there are plenty of places to sit. The coffee and pastries are delicious. Jirani seems like a great place to study, do homework, visit with friends, or just relax. They host events for the community there too, which I look forward to attending. This place is a gemstone in our little city, and Im very pleased to have found it.
Yummy! Nice hangout.
The word that kept coming to mind at Jirani was easy. Theres a lot of coffee shops in this world and a lot of them are very good, but not many are easy.Jiranis is different.First off, its easy to find and get to. Tucked just off the side of railroad tracks its painless to find. Moreover, theres plenty of street lot parking around, so finding a place isnt difficult.Second, ordering is easy. The staff here is great. Theyre kind, helpful, conversational, polite and really help make the shop feel warm and homely.Third, the shop itself is easy. By easy here, I mean that there is plenty of seating. Its way bigger than the pictures make it out to be with enough tables, couches, high-tops and chairs to sit well over 20 groups. Moreover, there are plenty of outlets, quiet music and free wifi, so sitting down a doing a little work is easy.Finally, the coffee is easy......to drink a lot of. Its quite good. I ordered a pour over with Nicaraguan beans. It set me back about $4 and it was well worth every penny. Delicious.All in all, very pleased and will be coming back when Im in the area again.
I really hoped that this could be my Northern Virginia coffee destination. I like the environment; plentiful seating with different chairs and sofas, an electric fireplace, and a carpeted reading nook with books to borrow. Theres also a stage in the corner for live performances. I was hopeful that this might be my new coffee spot.I asked about pour-over options, and was told a list of about 8-10 names of different countries with a slight nod over his shoulder directed at some coffee bags by the shelf. There was no further descriptors or follow-up as to what I may be looking for. I chose a country, hoping for flavor that was nurtured by the high altitudes there. I also ordered the bacon cheddar grilled cheese, all together for about $12.After a few minutes, my coffee was ready. Surprisingly it was in a larger cup, 16-20 oz? A quick sniff produced nothing, no discernible notes of anything. It was diluted, flat, and formless. It tasted of a lighter roast gas station coffee that was reheated in a microwave. I was so surprised I chuckled to myself. Then my sandwich came out. My optimism was challenged, seeing a pale, almost soggy looking sandwich. Cheese was dripping from the sides, which isnt a bad thing for a grilled cheese, but it definitely wasnt cheddar, as advertised. Cheap, buttery, oily Gouda was overwhelming, cut with something very sickly sweet. Perhaps something like a BBQ jam? The bacon looked like the pre-cooked bacon available at Costco, thin, pink, lacking any smoke or really cured flavor. The bread was probably grilled on a flat top, but was pulled far too early and didnt toast at all. Between the coffee and sandwich, not sure what was more disappointing.I generally only post negative reviews when an establishment has really earned it, and Im definitely not being overly critical. I actually like the atmosphere, and I imagine for most people just looking for a drip house coffee, this would be a solid option. Im going to go one more time, just to be thorough, and hopefully my experience was an outlier.
Ive been here a few times, and ordered the same espresso based drink. Unfortunately, the product is widely inconsistent, ranging from drinkable to tasting like Im sipping on ashes. They have the means to make a better cup, and Im hoping they can dial it in soon. (See update below)The only non-dairy option they have is almond milk, and they charge a ridiculous .75 cents on top of the price for the drink.Environment is why Im giving it any stars at all. Its a beautiful, wide open space great for large groups or work space. The warm, industrial atmosphere is something hard to find in the area. The passion the owners have is apparent in the overall vibe of the place, just not in their coffee.Update 06/12/17: After a few months of not ordering anything from this shop, I decided to give them another chance. I am disappointed to say that 11 months later they still have horrible espresso. I tried to drink the plain almond milk latte I ordered, but had to exchange it for something that I could actually stomach. They were nice enough to exchange it for cold brew, but this should not still be an issue after a year of being in business.
Great little place with delicious coffee
Great Pizza!!!!! Very pleasant staff!
Nice snacks and good coffee
Easily one of the top 5 coffee shops to work in NoVA area. Great environment, right by the train station.Could step it up on some of their drinks, but 5 stars for the environment!
VERY unsanitary!! DO NOT EAT here!!! Employees and customers are NOT PROVIDED SOAP for SEVERAL HOURS!!! Health department VIOLATIONS!!! I arrived at the store, placed my order and went to the restroom while my drink was prepared and my scone was warmed. There was no soap in the ladies restroom so I reported this to the woman who took my order. After my book club meeting was over, I returned to the restroom before my trip home and there was still NO SOAP! This was 2.5 HOURS after I had arrived!!! The woman who I had told earlier was waiting outside the restroom when I came out and said she was going to replace it then. However, as I went to the counter and asked for the manager, she came back from the restroom and told another employee she had no idea how to replace the soap. I was also told employees had no idea when the manager would be in. This place was highly recommended by two of my friends but this will be the LAST TIME I ever visit this restaurant.
Great place to visit and stay awhile. Nice patrons, art, library, etc. Its more than a coffee house. Good place to check out and truly enjoy.
I love this cute little shop. Its got something for everyone. Art, books, yummy desserts and live entertainment!
Pretty horrible customer service. I waited at the register to order, along with two other women, and the girl behind the counter just stared at us and continued making drinks. If you’re backed up, at least acknowledge the people waiting for you. When another employee came out from the back, he just started restocking cups - of which there were already enough - rather than take orders or even greet the people waiting. Ended up leaving and going down the street to another coffee shop.
Lovely cheesecake and assortment of coffee. Relaxing vibe with great artistic touches. Fun and welcoming environment; fantastic events.
Quiet, cute and cozy this is one my favorite book stores! If you are into warfare history this place is the jackpot! Grab a coffee, find a chair and spend a rainy afternoon here losing yourself in a good book!
Theres a fireplace, brick walls, a separate quiet reading space available for reservation for large groups, booths for large groups, and of course good coffee. My only note against this spot is that it tends to get noisy because of the music which is played on the louder side. Parking can be tricky too, but you do get 4 hours in the public parking area.
Great customer service!
Atmosphere is chill. Nice place to sit back and relax. They host some special events and allow the public school orchestra program to perform. The only reason Im not going 5 stars is due to a negative interaction with a willfully obtuse staff (asked for an iced coffee, they acted like cold brew was all they could do - took WAY too long to convince them they can put ice in coffee - suspect they were annoyed I called them away from their phone to buy a drink). Thats only once in about half a dozen visits, so its hopefully just a one off. The drinks are good.
Its a nice space. Good breakfast sandwich and good iced coffee. I might go with the cold brew next time in hopes of a fuller coffee flavor but nonetheless it was quite good. Kinda hard to find for a first timer. Id go back.
Loves their coffee their food was pretty good too. Staff was really nice and knowledgeable.
We decided to try this new cafe & the staff and food is great - we were greeted with a friendly smile and excellent service!I must say we were very pleasedI had the Yorker and the pastizzi & I wish I could give 10 them stars
Everything was perfect!
Jirani Coffeehouse is a great place to go for a cup. Nice relaxed atmosphere plus areas set aside for mobile workers, team meetings, etc. A nice library is also available. They also host poetry slams, live music, fashion shows, and improv groups on weekends. I HIGHLY recommend visiting the next time you are in old Town Manassas, VA.
Cozy coffeehouse,So convenient if you are traveling from Manassas train station, it is just cross the street from the station.By the way it is Jirani not Sirani.
Nice location, chill atmosphere. Also has tons of space! You dont usually say that about coffee houses. The staff were super helpful, even when our order didnt turn out as we expected, they went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied with our food/drinks. Will definitely visit again and again!
I love this spot! Cute, with a nice atmosphere. The events are really varied and nice! I’m a regular!
Nice and cozy atmosphere, coffee is good with different latte options as well. Pastries were delicious and the cakes looked Devine!
Nice environment with plenty of space to gather with friends or co-workers. The staff were incredibly nice and quick with making drinks. I wasnt overly impressed with the chai tea latte. Im a fan of a spicy chai latte and this one just didnt do it for me.
Jirani is always a lovely place to meet colleagues or friends. With plenty of tables and more secluded larger working *U* booths its my preferred place to have a business meeting. The coffee is great too!
Great service, great entertainment, and the staff was awesome. The coffee was great, I will recommend if you havent been to go. You will have a great time
Dont come here for food. No food orders ahead of me and took 45 min for 4 sandwiches. If youre trying to get lunch, goodbye lunch hour because all of it is spent waiting.
Coffee is great! Good for a quick sip or a sit down chat, or event a meeting! Loved the booths in back and the mini library, hope to be at more events in the future here!
Wow, what a gem in Manassas.It was like hanging out with family... I hat you like.I listened to the jazz band, Smoketown Rd. and had a great time.The food and drink was very good and reasonably priced.Thank you Ken for a wonderful evening.Thank you to my wife Bano, for surprising me with this memorable night out!
This is one of my favorite places to get away from any distractions relax and study. They provide plenty of space, whether your going by yourself or with a large group theyre very accommodating. They provide plenty of outlets for any devices you might bring, and free wifi for those devices. To top it all off the coffee food and staff are all amazing. Any one looking for a nice scenic location to get work done study or just relax this is the spot.
Best Aesthetic, Venue-Oriented, Study-Friendly, Coffee Shop. Extraordinarily Pleasant Business Owner and Staff. Great Location and Surroundings. p.s. I have zero affiliation with the establishment.
It was was an awsome experience. The atmosphere was great along with the coffee. I will definitely be making returning visit soon.#Culpeper
Another great place to relax, do business, or just enjoy a coffee and conversation with friends...
Fun vibes and good cold brew! I sampled the medium roast, which was a too winey and acidic for me, but enjoyed the cold brew. They have quiet spaces for larger groups, tables for two, and even outdoor seating. Located in quaint, historic downtown Manassas, this place is definitely worth a stop.
We stopped in with 2 other couples and another friend. and enjoyed some beverages and excellent conversations in a relaxed atmosphere, was our first visit, we will return!
If youre looking for really nice espresso, you may or may not get it here. Other sweet drinks are fine. IMO the drinks are ok, the staff are pretty nice each time, and the location is great, set by the train tracks, which is pretty fun.
Love the place, it always feels home-y and cozy. They have little events every now and again and I always enjoy going. Definitly reccomend this place
The pour over coffee was really smooth.
Nice and cozy. Great coffee and other drinks!
Quiet, warm, plenty of outlets and laptop space. Amazing coffee.
Took over an hour for my full order. A latte and avocado toast. Avocado toast was very disappointing and looked nothing like the photo on website.
Really chill spot. Open mic on Thursday night. Beer and wine too.
Great community coffee house! Excellent service.
Had a hot cocoa made w half and half; the highly rec cheesecake is not from scratch; too sweet; runny; and tasted overly processed; Cheesecake should be sour with some sweetness it should have a firm texture and not hit you over the head with too much sugar it drowns out the subtle flavors of a creamy cheese cake; yuck! Cocoa was good —
Great experience!! Food was delicious! Great atmosphere esp the jazz musician performance...staff very pleasant.
Our favorite Saturday morning coffee spot. So nice and relaxing.
I have found a new favorite spot!This laid back, neo-classic feel establishment is a true gem. I stopped by to support my Mom who performed at the Gospel@Jirani in April and immediately fell in love. I have been looking for a chill spot with occasional live music, warm and eclectic atmosphere, delicious coffee and great prices... ding ding ding; we have a winner! Cant wait to go back (and I live in Arlington). Jirani has a Customer for Life
Great place to relax with wonderful coffee and teas. The cookies are very delicious as well. Havent tried the other food yet and plan on it soon.
I do not drink coffee so I can’t speak for the coffee experience, but the atmosphere here is great! There is so much space, so there is almost always a spot open. The variety of seating options is awesome! Sometimes I just need a comfy chair and sometimes I need a place to set up my iPad and work, they have both! Like I said, I don’t drink coffee, but the hot chocolate and Arnold Palmer are both fabulous!
They have the best comedy shows that are clean, no cusing at Jirani Coffeehouse!
The Jirani Coffeehouse is like a quaint library that youd see in a movie. The setup is beyond nice. I dont currently have any pictures but will update my review later with some.Its a friendly place that could support a team meeting, a book review or the somberness of quiet place away from the noise of anxiousness that we have in todays world.The staff is nice and very attentive. While I am not a coffee drinker the danishes are sweet and delicious!
Food is wonderful and the workers there are very kind.
Normally I am very satisfied with my service, but last time I went I ordered an iced coffee and got hot drip-pot coffee over ice, which ended up being just lukewarm, watery coffee. I wish they wouldve told me they dont make a cold brew or that they use the hot coffee, I wouldve changed my order.
Really nice place, I could stay there for hours. Staff was really nice!
Great for working or meeting. Excellent coffee and tea choices. What a great place for the community. They try to offer a varied calendar.
Its good coffee and friendly folks
This is my absolute favorite coffeehouse. Its cozy and inviting and they host a ton of amazing community events. Ive always had pleasant interactions with the staff as well. Just love everything about it.
I love the atmosphere and people ay Jirani. Tonight they could have used more people to meet the numerous customers orders.
Excellent food, coffee, Service and staff.
Was here for a Womens networking event. I like the private room, the reclaimed windows and easy location. I didnt try any of their food and drink since the event I attended was privately catered. Will post when I go again.
Caramel macchiato with half syrup is soo yummy!!
Love Jirani! Great atmosphere. Great coffee. Great service.
Chai latte is sooooo good here
Coffee is perfect !!!
Didnt go there would never go because do not drink coffee and the smell makesme sick
Theres always something to be said about local establishments. This one is one of my favorites! The atmosphere is so nice, very laid back, and the coffee is delicious! I will visit over and over again!
Nice place, great atmosphere, good service, decent prices, good coffee and great breakfast sandwich! Located right on the train depot. I will definitely stop by again upon my next visit.
Love the coffee menu. They make a great green tea latte!
Really enjoyed this space for casual chatting and reading.
