Chibo Coffee

Today was my second visit to Chibo, and I was even more impressed than on my first visit a few weeks ago. We were warmly greeted at the counter and our questions about the menu were graciously answered. I ordered the Berbere Mocha and Kinche with Scrambled Eggs, and both were supremely tasty and a real treat compared to usual fare of some other coffee shops. My boyfriend also very much enjoyed his Chibo tea and bagel. The quality of the food and drinks here is outstanding. The service was excellent, and the atmosphere was comfortable and inviting. We are definitely looking forward to our next visit! (Two photos are from my first visit, and the other is from today.)

I am so thankful for having this coffee spot to enjoy in our community. The service is sweet and prompt. The atmosphere is positive and relaxing. The food/coffee is amazing. The coffee is imported fresh from the Simien Mountains in Ethiopia, and the employees are proud of the rich culture of East Africa presented in this Gwinnett landmark! The baked goods are fresh, rich and savory without too much sweetness. I used to drive to Decatur to enjoy cultural flavors like this. Glad I gave them a try. Thanks Chibo Coffeehouse!

This was my first time visiting this lovely coffee shop. After seeing all the positive reviews, I had to check it out—and they did not disappoint! As soon as I walked in, I was greeted warmly. The customer service was top-notch, and I truly enjoyed the coffee and almond croissant—they were absolutely delicious. It’s such a calm and relaxing spot to read or catch up on work, especially with the free Wi-Fi. I definitely plan on visiting again soon!

Chibo Coffee is a cute, cozy café that’s great for a relaxed coffee break or getting some work done. I had a cappuccino, which was smooth and comforting, and a crumbly cake (not sure what it was exactly, but it was tasty). The service was friendly and they have seating and Wi-Fi for anyone wanting to do some work.

What a treasure to have this lovely coffee shop nearby! The owners are so sweet and friendly. The coffee is wonderful and the food tasty. Try a pasty - Ethiopian fried dough - just lightly sweet. But you have to wait for it because they fry it up when you order.

Great coffee shop. Had the affogato which I rarely see in other shops. Saw some great traditional coffee setups will try next time. Great service and vibe. Hidden coffee gem.

Chibo coffee is a nice and cozy local spot to enhance your Ethiopian taste buds! Thank you for a flavorful, delicious and healthy meal! A true hidden gem. ☕️

A little pricey ($15 for two 16oz drinks with two syrup pumps) but very delicious. the vibes were great and the atmosphere was great too. will be back

This is a cute little hidden cafe. I read other reviews of how "remarkable or incredible" the coffee was but it was nothing out of the ordinary or palette mesmerizing. Aside from a latte, I ordered the egg/cheese croissant which was delicious. Had a danish and samosa. Samosa was dry and some lentils under cooked. The danish was decent. I would have liked to order something else but was not made aware of a picture menu available until I left. The service was very friendly and they even offered to re heat my coffee since I was there for a while and it got cold. It's also nice, clean and themed out well. They have wifi here and it was a good spot for a quick work sesh.

This was my first specifically Ethiopian coffee. I may have had some before but didn't know it. Staff was full of genuine smiles and customer service. They knew some customers by name. Iced mocha 16 oz heavy milk was excellent, rich with full bodied flavor. I would have liked a little more ice, but that was minor. Pretty darn good. When in area I will be back.

Delicious Coffee. And an assortment of pastries made in-house. Some cultural dishes like Kimchi and Sambusa. Very intimate and relaxing atmosphere.

Wow this place is fantastic. I accidentally found this place after looking for a coffee shop for my wife to go to with a friend and after reading the reviews, knew we had to go. We decided to come here yesterday for a Valentine's Day lunch and the owner was here. He went over each item on their menu and showed us pictures of the items and explained what each thing was in great detail. Pretty much everything is organic and Vegan as well. The owner explained how the roast their own coffee and they make everything. As someone who has worked in culinary for quite sometime and is a well traveled, it's easy to take certain things for granted when you become accustomed to it and when you can't find similar thing, it can be frustrating. The coffee here is truly remarkable, you can taste the difference. Usually we prefer visiting coffee shops that are owned by roasters as their coffee is made from beans roasted with a few days, but not more than two weeks. So knowing they roast their own in house is lovely! The food. Wow!!! We had the Pastee, Kinche, Chibo Vegan and Avocado Toast with Turmeric Sauce. Everything was presented very nicely, and the taste and texture was pleasant. Now all I can hope is they create a dinner menu so we can get Togo at least once every two weeks. As for décor, it's very relaxing, inviting and a place I would highly recommend to couples, for a date, hangout with a good friend to have great coffee and food and deep conversations, or to hangout solo, relax and read while enjoying coffee and a lunch. Very impressed, outstanding customer service and friendly. These are the types of businesses I love to support where they love what they do and take care of their customers. It shows in the quality of the food and coffee too. Highly recommended. Will be back. [Review #705] (3rd Review of 2024)

Very vegan friendly! Some items include honey, so do be warned if that's an issue for you. They offer several vegan dishes that are unique and varied. I highly recommend the Injera avocado roll and the honey aromatic latte! The staff are very kind and friendly and answered my questions in helpful detail. Fantastic place I can't wait to visit again!

This is a great family owned coffee shop. Ethiopian coffee Great coffee Great atmosphere Great service Fair price What more could I ask for? Pastry and other food available.

Came here because my original destination, Beans and Butter Coffeehouse, was closed for July 4th weekend. This was my first visit and had zero expectations. It's amazing. This is an Ethiopian coffee restaurant that also sells sandwich's and snacks, in addition they roast their organic Arabica coffee in-house every Wednesday. I got an almond milk iced latte; it was stong and smooth. The employees are very kind and decided this is my new spot.

Came here to get drinks and food for my family. We had a large order and were greatly accommodated! We got the egg and cheese croissants, a cream cheese and honey croissant, avocado toast, plain croissant, americano, and 3 lattes. Everything tasted so yummy and it was freshly made and warm! The drinks were also great and not overly sweet and smooth. Definitely want to come back again. Plenty of seating inside.

Have been here twice and had a great experience both times. London fog is so good, 10/10 recommend. Chechibsa is good, seasoned well. They offer honey with it but I prefer without the honey. Chibo quesedilla is yummy. First time I had it was the best. Second time was a little too cheesy for my preference but still great overall. Had the sambusa on a previous visit and didn't really care for it. I prefer a regular samosa over sambusa. Lentils were kind of dry. Overall if you're in Gwinnett and interested in a local coffee shop this was a cute find! The lady at the front is so sweet and very helpful when ordering.

Delicious coffee, wonderful staff, and beautiful interior! Chibo Coffee is nestled in the corner of a Five Forks Strip Mall and is only a few minutes from the local library. They offer authentic Ethiopian food and coffee, and even have vegan options! We visited a half hour before close and met the owner, he made our yummy coffees, and was delightful and very friendly! We ordered a 12 oz hazelnut coffee with whipped cream and a 16 oz vanilla latte with oatmilk. Both drinks were perfectly balanced and delicious! The price was also less expensive than other local joints. We spent around $12 for both drinks including the add-ons. I can't wait to go back and try their other drinks and get a slice of Tiramisu! Update: We went back and tried their delicious food! Photos attached :)

Absolutely incredible Ethiopian coffee. Reasonable and delicious. We ordered vanilla latte's, but next time will just purchase the drip coffee it's so good. Pastry and food offered as well, just the friendliest service. I loved it.

The food is different made with a lot of attention and very yummy. 5 stars The service is 5 stars testa is always friendly and is always happy he makes you feel good. The ambient is calm 5 stars

The coffee is so good. I love getting a latte with oat milk and adding sugar to taste. I also am obsessed with the pasti's. I'm plant based and they don't disappoint with vegan offerings. Also the owners and employees are so warm and welcoming. They get a 10/10 for me.

Food is great and service outstanding! The physical environment is vey clean and friendly.

Delicious latte and tiramisu in a comfortable setting on a foggy afternoon: perfect. Staff is friendly and helpful.

Chibo Coffee is a friendly little family owned cafe tucked in the back of a shopping center across from Kroger and next door to McDonalds. There's a Starbucks across the street but I wanted to try a local joint. The owner is Ethiopian and he said they roast their own beans in house. They have an assortment of sweet pastries and savory options. Decor is simple but open. There is a nice assortment of art on the wall and they have traditional art coffee sets for sale too. We opted for the Chibo Coffee. The owner said it's made to order and takes about 8 minutes. It was brought out on a very nice looking tray and had a raw sugar bowl. The coffee is small and meant to be poured in an espresso cup. The vegan lentil pastry we ordered had a great mix of spices with the right amount of heat. The coffee was also very good. Deceptively light for such a dark roast. Service and staff were attentive and friendly. Little gems like this are why we always try to visit a family owned establishment instead of a mega chain.

If you're looking for a unique coffee experience, I highly recommend visiting Chibo. This was my first time ordering Ethiopian coffee and chose the authentic Chibo style which takes a little bit longer to brew but the wait was worth it. I drank it without cream and sugar and was pleasantly surprised by the taste and strength. It is served in an individual pot with a small cup. It was smooth but had a tinge of bitterness towards the end. I will definitely be making another trip for the coffee. In addition, I tried the Chibo quesadilla which was delicious and flavorful and was very filling A small but comfortable establishment, I can't wait to try more of the menu!

Awesome food and excellent attention. Congrats Mr Tesfa. We've enjoyed this place. We hope to return soon.

Amazing food and service, very chill and not packed. Amazing place if you want to do a little work with a laptop or have a talk with friends.

A great local coffee shop! Open every day from 7a-6p. There is a good selection of drinks on the menu and some Ethiopian sides like sambosa and chechebsa, as well as a good selection of salads, cupcakes, etc. I had the chai latte and it was very good. I'll definitely be coming back!

This independent coffee shop is in a whole tier above anything else in the area. The atmosphere is great, with cute decor and seating available. It's It would be a great place to study or get a little work done! The owner is very kind and knowledgeable on the coffee and will tell you about it as he makes it in front of you. He hand roasts his coffee, which is delicious! The food is also amazing to go along with it. I highly recommend!

Chibo is a wonderful addition to our community! Kind people making a variety of amazing coffee and tea drinks, and delicious food. Their cafe is so clean and stylishly-decorated. Orders are made by the lovely husband and wife team, so do have patience and sit back and enjoy a moment of relaxation while you wait

I love everything about this coffee place. The coffee and food are awesome. The service is amazing, they are so kind and very welcoming.
