Wow! What a find in the middle of the city. Totally beats Starbucks. The coffee was smooth. So smooth! They have comfy chairs, the hospitality was palpable. You just want to stay and just chill in the hospitality. So good.

Yanis is the best!! I have had nothing but awesome food!! They have the best salads! The meat is to perfection. My favorite is Yanis Salad, I do with mixed greens. I will sometimes ask for extra tomatoes, they never fail me! Always absolutely delicious . Today I decided to try the hummus for sharing, oh my gosh!! All I can say, is this, absolutely also the BEST hummus ever, served with cucumber, tomato and pita bread. Just so good!Thank you Yanis for always serving up the best!

Their lunches are very fine. But my favorite are their breakfast omelettes, served until 10. I love the veggie number 3 particularly. Their gyro meat and sandwiches are excellent.

Not sure where to start, if you want just a cup of coffee, they have it. If you want breakfast or lunch, its great. Nothing quite like a cup of Rocket Fuel to get you going in the morning. Plenty of coffee drinks to choose from. It is a great place to meet with people over lunch.

Husband went there in December and his bill was $10 dollars and some change and he left a tip. However they charged our credit card $112. Noticed it the next on my statement, so he went to the coffee shop and girl was unable to help him so she said the owner/manager would call. Never did so I disputed it on my discover card but obviously yanis decided to dispute it as well and I was still charged 112 bucks for my husband’s order. Talk about expensive coffee. We will NEVER go back. Check you receipt if you have them run your card.

Few places have a more special place in my heart than CZ!! A must stop for lunch in JC, and always get Taisir’s hot sauce! Great place for families or coffee with a friend or a work meeting... always full with familiar faces.

Had hot coco one day and it was good and the next morning I had their egg wrap which was good as well. The employees were really friendly and made it feel like a place you could frequent often and feel like you are part of the shop. Update: Went back last week when I was in town and ordered a gyro, definitely wasnt disappointed.

Yanis coffee zone is an amazing place to go while in Jeff City. I was recently there for a convention and had made multiple stops there.The first day I had gone I ordered a large rocket fuel and a gyro deluxe. Despite not being a big coffee drinker, I still enjoyed the rocket fuel thoroughly. The gyro deluxe also exceeded my expectations with flying colors as everything.My second day I ordered their mocha blast (I believe thats what it was called) and a full order of gyro biscuits and gravy. The mocha blast was great as well as the biscuits and gravy (the best breakfast I had there btw). I also took a bite of my friends spinach omelette which was also amazing.All in all, the service was great and so was the food.

Great coffee selections. Rocket fuel will wake you up and some. A hint with parking would be to either attempt to parallel park or just find a metered parking lot and walk. Best time to go would be right when it opens.

Review №31

Nice little place. Good food with authentic flavors. Great smoothies! Mango all the way! A little on the expensive side, but the atmosphere makes it worth it.

Review №32

This is a great place to stop for a cup of Rocket Fuel, baked goods to nibble on with your coffee, and a delightful menu if you are hungry. The prices are good, and made to order. The food tends to be heathier with salads, meats, pita bread, etc.There is something else here that is special. It is called the Community Cup. If you are short of change, are freezing and need to get warmed up, you can ask for a community cup. No cost. Likewise, when you buy coffee or food, you can donate extra money towards the community cup. At one point several years ago, there was enough donations, for people needing a meal, to get one. The owners are kind enough to keep the funds and give out coffee, etc. But the community, is responsible for keeping money in the fund.A win win for the Community. Thanks Yanis.

Traditional Mediterranean food at its finest! Coffee selection is second to none. Made fresh daily and cooked to order. The in-house baklava, scones...are delicious (served until gone) and well worth the indulgence. Located in beautiful downtown JC.

The Yanis salad, Greek style with gyro meat and their Gyro Deluxe are my 2 favorite dishes here and worth trying.

Review №51

One of my favorite lunch places in downtown Jefferson City. Im not much of a coffee connoisseur, but I love coffee zone for the mediterranean/middle eastern lunch options- Im partial to the chicken kebab. Good food. Quick and friendly service. Casual atmosphere.

Review №52

I ordered a 20 oz coffee and the employee gave me a 16 oz coffee knowing I ordered a 20 oz and charged me for the more expensive drink. When I went to confront him about the issue he simply poured my drink in the larger cup and poured a small amount of milk to fill it up. The coffee tasted awful. Not the worst coffee I have ever had but I DEFINITELY would never buy coffee here again.

Yanis Coffee Zone is awesome! Best coffee in town and delicious & authentic Mediterranean cuisine! I highly recommend their egg wrap which comes on a yummy pita, their soups (when available during the cold months), and their white chocolate mocha latte! Their home-made hummus is amazing...it is delicious with their spinach pie plate.

Amazing food, spanikopita, rugelach, and gyro. Coffee was great too. The staff were so kind. it was breakfast, but we wanted stuff from the lunch menu and they didnt even blink just did it. Tasted a bit more authentic than most for some reason. Portions are large.

Review №67

I ordered a slushie. What I got was some sugary liquid with a bit of ice floating in it. Worst slushie ever. No effort was put into making it. The food is okay at best, and I say that only because middle eastern/greek cuisine isnt for me.- Adding an edit to the review because I cant reply to the owners response. They are saying that they dont even serve slushies . Well, the item was on the menu and there was even a giant poster advertising the item in the store! So, how did I get a slushie? I can only guess that the owner is lying to cover up a negative review, which is pretty shady. I will 100% NEVER come back to this business.

Review №68

The Rocket Fuel is the best coffee in town, that is, if you like plain coffee with fantastic flavor, and quite a kick. The menu is awesome, and one of the few menus in town that offer truly vegetarian choices. I love the service there as well.

They use mocha powder instead of chocolate syrup, which makes your drink into an awful grainy protein shake. Completely undrinkable.

Was passing through Jefferson City, google recommended Yanis Coffee Zone. It is down town near the capitol so parking may be a little hard to find, but the coffee and food is worth it.I ordered a gyro and an iced coffee with an extra shot. The coffee was perfect. The gyro was massive, and very well prepared.The staff are friendly, the owner Mr. Yanis greeted and thanked me for my business as if I was a long time customer ( this is my first visit), I will make this a stop every time i am in Jefferson City.

I was a little let down being a frozen coffee drinker. They only had two choices, vanilla and mocha and they couldnt add shots of espresso to it. So I opted instead for an iced coffee with two shots. Not impressed with the coffee but it will do better than Starbucks.
