My friend and I came here for brunch and it was just perfect. I got a decaf skim latte and we split the Monte Cristo and the Kickin Chicken Sandwich. Both were delicious, but could easily see why the Monte Cristo was their signature sandwich. I love the creativity in how this was made and it was excellent. I would totally get this again. Service was great and just a great spot to chill and eat. read more

Home fries- overcooked and hard, no salt pepper nothing. Bacon egg and cheese bagel - bagel is 1 of those really bad store bought bagels in the bread aisle at the grocery store, not even a good store bought bagel. It was edible, the employees were nice and the coffee is pretty good. I would return for coffee, I wouldn't bother buying their food though. read more

Stayed in a VRBO close by and there was a menu on the fridge for this place. We finally went our final day, wish we had gone earlier! Super friendly service, great food too! The omelette was stuffed with ham and cheese. My husband loved his French toast too. The staff was so nice and helpful. Loved the decor and prayer box too! read more

Smallest Monte Cristo I have ever seen. Fries were not good. Not pictured since they arrived later. Not worth $40. The layout of the restaurant is horrible. Line cris crosses the path to the condiments, napkins and bathroom. Standing / order area has large refrigerators in the space. The bathroom is also a storage area. Will not be back. read more

Their Iced Banana Bread Latte is incredible! I have come once a week to get one since I discovered this place. The staff is always very friendly and the service is prompt. read more

Food and service is excellent. I highly recommend the coffee. It's worth a visit to support a local small business.

Great for a quick cup of coffee! Friendly staff, quick service, and has a drive-through for convenience. It's a little on the pricier side if you want to add any flavors or substitute your milk, but they make a tasty latte! read more

Was meeting a friend for a quick lunch at a local place. It's been quite some time since I've been here, probably a few years. Masks are not required since you'll be eating. Everything is sanitized including the silverware that are packaged individually. Since I haven't had the opportunity to travel this past year for my go-to breakfast sandwich, I was excited to have the egg, ham, and cheese and selected the croissant (though there's options for other bread, including gluten free). Yeah, I probably can attribute my Covid weight to eating several croissants per week (gotta make it easy for new years resolutions). My friend who apparently comes here a lot had been texting me about being hungry and looking forward to the grits, ordered this overloaded grits. Gotta admit, it looked like a hearty meal. You simply need to order at the counter and take a seat, several tables including two outdoors. Someone brings your order. He was really nice and came back with several napkins either recognizing that I must be a messy eater or will need it . It was a pretty constant flow of people. They've been known for their coffee, and such (one of last time here was picking up an order for my visiting MIL) though options for breakfast all day of operating hours and lunch. It's been so long since I've eaten out locally, so it was great to see and catch up with neighbors who were working there and those eating there too. It's understandable why a nice flow of people as the prices are very reasonable, and you get some delish dish! read more

This Bistro has been here for 13 years! We live 2 miles away and didn't know they were here, but what a well kept secret. Their food is very good and the service is outstanding. They serve breakfast and lunch every day and are closed on Sundays. We liked the flexibility of their menu, and the food was cooked exactly as ordered. They even will toast your muffin if you would like - Pretty cool!! I also liked the Christian music played in the background as we ate. If you are looking for a quiet place to have a tasty breakfast or lunch and like friendly people who care about their customers, I'd highly recommend the Java Bistro at 5 Forks! read more

Cool little breakfast place in Five Forks. Fantastic breakfast menu with friendly service minded staff. Everybody smiles here. Bagels were close to New York. Sausage patties more like what grandma made, than the flavorless slabs you get in places like IHOP. Can't go wrong with the Lattes. Looking forward to returning for lunch. read more

The only negative I have to say is that Java isn't open for dinner!! I love all of the food and the atmosphere makes my heart happy!

A local gem. The best breakfast sandwiches and bagels around. Coffee is great as well. They even have a drive-thru.

Java Bistro - BLT sandwich with fries was AMAZING - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Simpsonville, South Carolina

Pretty good food at a low price. You can definitely get a good breakfast here and it's worth trying. I am not sure I would go out of my way to come back, but then again I wouldn't mind coming back either. The atmosphere is casual. There are some sofas and coffee tables where you can play games. It's a great family breakfast spot. There a people playing board games with their kids around us. I am a little annoyed at the air units they have plugged in in the corner which are quite loud... The scrambled eggs are delicious and home fries are nice and crispy. I was stuck between a chocolate muffin and French toast. The cashier told me they split the muffins in half and grill them so of course I had to go with the ooey gooey chocolate goodness. They have a lot of different artisan coffees to choose from. I did not get a flavoring so I cannot speak for that but the iced latte and americano were enjoyable. read more

I was back in SC for a family illness/death visit, and had lots of errands to run in order to help the family prepare for the funeral. I made a quick visit to Java Bistro to pick up an espresso drink. I always have a somewhat negative reaction when I see that I have to walk to the back of an establishment to be served. It just feels funky. Once at the back, I ordered a cappuccino, asking if they had coconut milk? No. Almond milk? No. Just soy milk. So, okay, I went with soy milk, because I am lactose intolerant. The cappuccino was fine. I probably should have been specific and requested a bold espresso, but, to me, espresso by definition means you want something strong. Yes? I would definitely return to order again, as I enjoy supporting small businesses. read more

Every time I get something here it's good. The have great breakfast sandwiches. It's a good community hub and I hope they continue to keep up the consistent service.

They seem unaware of the current pandemic. None of the workers wear masks. No social distancing or spacing of tables. The place was packed. Food and coffee is always good but socially very irresponsible. read more

Wonderful little breakfast place, simple, friendly with great food and great service. Wide selection of coffees, hot and cold - everything from straight ahead hot black coffee to excellent lattes. My wife's favorite is the dirty chai latte - best in the upstate. Breakfast can be light or big - good fresh eggs, omelets, bacon sausage, French toast - as much or little as you want. All good. Service is outstanding - fast friendly and efficient. Highly recommended read more

Pretty horrible service. First of all how dare you take my order without wearing a mask! You are in the restaurant industry! I ordered two sandwiches. Simple you would think, right? No! I waited 42 minutes. Seriously?! So I drove around asking where my food is..... manager comes to window. Guess what? NO mask! Seriously?! No thanks. Don't bother making my food! Ya want a Covid risk, come eat here. read more

Pricey, but the food is good and the coffee is on point! Fast and friendly service too! Thank-you for being so rad, Java Bistro!

This was yesterday's breakfast for me. So so yummy. We had the scrambled loaded grits, and a bacon egg & cheese croissant. The croissant was perfectly warm and fluffy and the grits were so loaded and flavorful that no salt or pepper was needed. I'm so happy to have found this gem! Will be back for sure! read more

We love small family owned places and this one never disappoints.... my favorite Reuben in the upstate burgers are fresh not frozen and fries seasoned perfectly (fries just need to be crisper) Staff is always so courteous and orders always right; place is clean and inviting read more
