Gloria Jean's is a fairly decent place, it has an amazing ambience and above all that they recenty installed a small liberty book with in the store, and i can't tell you how grear that is. Personally and also being very biased Gloria jeans was the first coffee shop I visited when i came to Pakistan so its a bit personal for me. Gloria has many section for the various types of customers pakistan provides, the have a smokers section and a non smokers, perfect for people of different preference, Personally i sit at in the smoker section. Now the food is debatable, some of it is exelent and some of it isn't, again it differs from person to person, besides it's not the food that people go in to get, its the coffee.
Gloria Jean's does not offer the best coffee in pakistan, christ its not even the best when it comes to the city, if you are a die hard coffee fan and love to either experiment with different flavours or simply love a fresh brew, what ever you chose its up to you, i however am a very picky person, im very refined when it comes to food, and gloria does not meet my marks of perfection, if and when i want giod coffee i simply go to my friend's house or simply make it at home myself.

Water everywhere on the floor, dustbin overloaded with tissues. Nasty toilet seat. There was no handle on the door from the inside and a half broken lock that barely held the door. The vent was BLACK with dirt, I could barely breath inside and felt like throwing up. When the check came the check book looked like it was ran over by cars. There is zero attention to detail. It’s like nobody cares about the place.
On the contrary the coffee was really good and the staff was very good. Chicken strips and chocolate chip cookie were average. I’m never going back again. I used to love this place, started going there 7-8 years back 2-3 times a...
