One of my favorite spots in Austin. This location specifically. The staff always attentive and friendly. They always have great specials listed on the chalkboard in the back of the restaurant. My go-to breakfast is their house coffee and the java special. I like to sub the toast for biscuits and add a small side of gravy. They also have free Wi-Fi that works really well if you want to come in eat, have coffee and work a bit. Anywho, anytime I'm on this side of town, This is my go-to spot no matter what. read more

It is a cute "diner style" restaurant. It feels like home the moment you walk in. What I love the most is they have so many speciality coffee options. If you work remotely, and want to get out to get some work done, I would recommend Java. They also have a small area outside for sitting. read more

I'm rarely up in North Austin, but recently had the opportunity to try this neighborhood spot. My date told me he's come here several times already, and I would later find out that it's popular! Luckily we got there before the lined formed, and got seated in their last cozy booth table. The coffee menu intimidated me as someone with regular choice paralysis at specialty coffee shops. They have multiple seasonal options as well as signatures. I decided on the hot cookie butter latte because it was chilly that morning (funny considering 7 days later it's way hotter). For food, I asked the server's opinion and he suggested the Greek Omelet over the Ham & Cheese. What a perfect recommendation! I got my hashbrown AND pancake fix (thanks to my date who shared his sides), because we don't have Waffle Houses in Austin. I also wanted to spread my biscuits with peanut butter instead of the tableside fruit jams, and our server again helped out & delivered a sizable small tub of peanut butter. I felt bad that I couldn't use all of it but whatever brand they have, I need it! Overall, this experience reminds me of the brunch places I used to go to all over Atlanta. I'm not sure if the influencers have found this yet - I hope they don't. It's so uniquely neighborly and old timey diner vibes, that their promotion would render it inauthentic. read more

not a good experience at the cedar park location-my husband's egg was on my plate which came out long before his. I understand this can happen, but it was not handled with customer service in mind, and ultimately his egg never came, and the egg was comped but we were charged for the bacon. could have been handled much better...and no apology. read more

Nothing out of this world about this breakfast spot. Food was meh and the coffee we ordered was okay. Pretty disappointed cause we'd heard from different people that it would be good. read more

I've come to cafe Java twice now for breakfast and think it's a solid breakfast spot. The staff is friendly and attentive. The food is solid but there's nothing too special about it. I've ordered omlettes and pancakes and they certainly hit the spot but in Austin there are so many speciality restaurants that sometimes a very decent breakfast spot can't compare as strongly. I wish I could rate this spot a 3.5 because it's solid and I'd come back but there's just nothing super special about it. Coffee is good and sweet and lots of fun flavors. read more

Love Cafe Java! A very cute and local Austin spot that is always very busy. Wait time is usually 15-20 minutes on a weekend for brunch but it's always well worth it. Think diner vibes and that's what you get at Java! I love their coffee and breakfast tacos as well as their platters. My favorite thing about Java is that the service is always incredible and prices are on the cheaper side read more

Came as a place of recommendation. This place was decent, fair prices, good service, fast food. I will say portions are generous. This place is pretty busy, I would say though, for the location, I'm surprised it's so busy. I will have one thing to say though, it's pretty on par with other places I've gone, nothing really special. Does feel like a mom and pop shop though read more

Cafe Java - Austin - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

On our continued hunt for a cheap and delicious breakfast place we found ourselves at Cafe Java. We've taken their coffee to go many times but never fully sat down so we were very excited. The restaurant does get packed very frequently so we put ourselves on the waitlist through Google. When we arrived we were seated immediately, skipping a line of 5+ parties (it pays to prepare). Upon sitting down we were greeted (kinda, not really) by our waitress who was very low energy and avoidant. She took our orders through a handheld device and didn't lift her eyes up one time during the process. We ordered a corn beef hash platter, the French toast, and cinnamon rolls. Our food came out extremely quickly despite how busy the restaurant was which was nice to see. To sum the food up: it was not good. The corn beef hash tasted like they uncanned it and grilled it for 30 seconds before plating it. The hash browns were average, the eggs a bit below. The French toast was not good, lacking any flavor or real depth to the actual bread, as well as the bacon looked crispy but somehow was not. We had very high hopes for the cinnamon rolls but were met with the laziest excuse for one we have ever seen. The roll itself is large and coated with very little icing and a ton of strawberries (why???). It tasted like a hint of cinnamon and pretty much capped off what we were feeling about the food to that point anyway. Throughout our time there our server didn't check on us once, not even to refill our cups of coffee. When it was time for the bill and to collect her tip was the only time she showed any real enthusiasm to come over. Maybe it was a series of unfortunate events, maybe it was an off day. Either way it's safe to assume we will not be back to try Cafe Java out again. read more

This is an Austin staple. It has such a warm, Family- oriented feel. They usually are packed on the weekends so you can grab a coffee and sit outside while you wait for a table. The staff is always so nice. And the breakfast is so good! I love a classic breakfast and Cafe Java always hits the spot. The 2x2x2 is my go-to. Pro-tip: Ask for Multigrain pancakes. They are delicious and I don't even have to use syrup on them! I love Cafe Java and will continue to be my stop for breakfast when I'm in the area. read more

I'm looking forward to the new location to open. They have amazing coffee. Great service. The menu is huge. I loved the hash browns and French toast. The bite of chicken fried steak was ick but the gravy was tasty. It's a very cute cafe. There will definitely be a wait. They have breakfast all day. read more

ok where to star: the food is god and tasty. howeve, there was an employee coughing on people and around people's tables while people were trying to eat. He was also picking his nose with his fingers and constantly wiping his nose with his hands while setting the empty tables. it was so bad that i could not even focus on eating. I scarfed it down because all I wanted to do was get out of there!! so I had to call the manager over and let him know. so as I watch my brother eat, I not that his glass had a lipstick stain on it.. so obviously thick. I asked my brother if he was wearing lipstick and pointed it out to him. that's how people get sick. spreading herpes. I also pointed that out to management. The employees washed their hands. read more

Breakfast still good. Must been a bad day for table server. I am feel not welcome and maybe I am single but I see the server smiles and welcome party of two or big families to the table. Ignoring my table when I need napkin and coffee refill. I came here for good breakfast every other week but today not welcome and unfriendly. Food still great but I think I come back maybe once a month. Sorry for negative review because I feel single person are not welcome. I still recommend for families and big groups but you will be left out if you single and minority. Thanks for understanding. read more

My husband and I came here this past Sunday. We put our names on the waitlist in google while we drove down there, and I am not sure if that was what set off the chain of events to follow. When we got there, I double checked that we were on the waitlist, and once I confirmed, I went over to the counter to order some iced coffee to drink while we waited. The woman working there gave me the cold shoulder and seemed irritated that I was ordering coffee, which I didn't understand. The space was really small, and I didn't know where to stand to not be in the way while I waited. Maybe that was the problem? After being called for our table we were pointed to a table, and for about 5-ish minutes, we weren't given menus, drinks, or anything and no one came to check on us. I got this weird feeling like I wasn't welcome, and I didn't know why. When someone finally did come to take our orders, she seemed annoyed, and when we asked for a glass of water or a side of salsa (which seem like pretty benign requests) we felt like we were inconveniencing the staff. The redeeming quality was the food. The pancakes were some of the best I have had in a while, and the hash browns and bacon were crisp and well seasoned. The food might make it worth a return trip, but probably only for takeout. We didn't realize how much the service would impact our experience, but no one wants to feel unwanted when spending money somewhere. read more

I stumbled upon this cafe by chance. Thinking it was a coffee shop, I was pleasantly surprised to find out it was a diner. It's a local, small business that was more than happy to support. I say this because the breakfast taco I had was tasty and filling. The eggs were cooked to perfection and fluffy, not dried out. The tortilla was fresh and soft. The caramel iced latte was so big I had to get most of it to go. Just the right about of ice and caramel flavoring. Cute little place with counter seating and basic diner layout. Prompt and friendly service. read more

This was a good place to order breakfast or lunch at the same time. It was crowded and busy. We ate outdoors at the table. They don't serve outdoors which means you have to order food to go and eat it outside. I don't like to order takeout with so much plastic waste - containers, bags, plastic utensils. If I lived nearby, I would stop in again for a late breakfast but nothing stood out. read more

Hey, what's up, y'all?! So if you know me, you know that I'm always down for a real good, juicy burger. I went to this nice little spot on Metric Blvd called Cafe Java. This spot is a nice, cozy restaurant with a very friendly staff. I ordered the cheeseburger and fries. The burger comes with a kaiser roll bun, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, cheese and a pickle spear. Me personally, I prefer pickles on my burger. It was a 1/3 pounder of well seasoned beef. I enjoyed this burger and the fries. If you want a good burger and fries, with good service and cozy atmosphere, then you need to try Cafe Java. I give Cafe Java 4 out of 5 drinks. Cheers! read more
