    Coffee bar
    Elaine H.

    Love this little place. Low key atmosphere. The baked goods are great. My favorite is the morning buns but they also have good bagels. The prices are reasonable and the two women usually working, are friendly and efficient. It's a nice stop after the farmer's market!

    Bagel and lox
    Sandy L.

    The fresh bagel and lox was great! Everything was prepared fresh and hot! Super fast and friendly service. Java Jax has a sorta retro/old school diner vibe complete with red bartop stools. The parking situation is either street parking and their little designated lot. The lot reminds me of an apartment garage lot. So it may honestly be easier to park on the street. They also offer pastries and sandwiches. I see this more as a casual grab and go place although they do have plentiful seating. I'd come back to grab another bagel!

    At Java Jax, expect to come in, order your stuff, and get it done right. The main guy, tho seemingly grumpy actually is quite friendly under his curmudgeon demeanor. To the left, you'll see a small frame of the famous internet cat- Grumpy Cat, which was gifted to him for obvious reasons, sitting on the counter. He seemed to be amused to share that. I know I was amused he did. The two vegans ordered lattes with the non-dairy options of almond, oat and soy milks. I went with soy, the friend went with oat. We were both happy with our coffees and the ratio of espresso that was used. They welcomed personal cups, which was nice. One less piece of trash for landfill. The price was SUPER REASONABLE unlike in other parts of The Bay. It didn't appear there were any vegan pastries but to be honest, we weren't sure we would even find dairy-free options so no complaints there. We just stopped in for a quick pick-me-up before heading over to Better Chew's Kitchen's grand opening. We'll definitely stop in again the next time we're in the area.

    This is a small coffee stop underneath a motel and easy to do a quick drive by. We went on a random morning and there was the only old guy, poor dude. Apparently whoever works for him didn't show up. So he was running around and there was quite a line. The menu is extensive from bagels, breakfast sandwiches, hot dogs, etc. A good spot for a quick stop if he had a full staff working maybe the service would have been faster. But not a place I'd regularly go to for my breakfast.

    Iced Mocha with Soy

    Skip the chains, this place is phenomenal! I have been looking for a coffee spot that retains flavor but offers vegan friendly coffee alternatives and this spot hit me right where I needed it! Everywhere else my coffee tastes diluted or bland. Not here though! I got an iced mocha with soy milk and the flavor is addictive! The man working behind the counter was kind enough to let me know the blending mix they use isn't vegan friendly, but was happy to make me an iced one! The place was clean, and the atmosphere was relaxing, lovely staff. Excited to make this my new spot!

For my second and third orders, we went with the Smoked Salmon Benedict with baked Roasted Potatoes. The salmon was smoked to perfection, and the poached eggs were prepared just right. The slices of avocado on the buttery English muffins were the compliment to making this Benedict so special. And the hollandaise sauce is so flavorful, I give it a chefs kiss!

I definitely wouldn't have ordered it had I known the level of delivery I would get. Disappointing

Seriously, they have the PERFECT location. It is a nice, relaxing place fit for studying, chatting, or chilling. The crew that helped us were cool and nice. They were knowledgeable and accommodating. FOOD: My coffee was not extraordinary. I had a latte. By itself it wasn't anything to write home about. I went with my mom and she said the same thing about her coffee. Next time I'll get a mocha, or something adjacent, and see how I fancy that. I had a croissant hot link sandwich which was good, but I wish I asked for some type of spread to go on it. That would have made the sandwich a 10/10. If I was to be picky, I would wish for the croissant bread itself to be fluffier and flakier, but croissants are difficult (and delicious). I tried my mom's breakfast burrito. The potatoes in it needed more love. It wasn't super, but adequate. The absolute best item that I had during my time at 'The Grind Cafe' was the frozen lemonade!!! It was SHMACK! I mixed flavors -- I believe it was green apple and mango. I would go again simply for the frozen lemonade; a perfect treat for everyone. Overall, I suggest you to go and try 'The Grind Cafe'. It is 1000% worth a visit.

On my first visit, I was overcharged for an item that was clearly listed at a lower price on the large menu displayed on the wall. When I brought the discrepancy to the employee's attention, she told me the owner would be upset if she changed the price rather than simply honoring the advertised price. That was disappointing. On another occasion, I asked an employee about the coffee options and was rudely told that they were closing soon, that they don't make coffee 30 minutes before closing, and that I could only order pastries. I understand arriving close to closing can be inconvenient, and I was only a few minutes away from closing. However, a little understanding and a friendly tone would have made a big difference. Her response came across as dismissive and unnecessarily rude. I genuinely want to support this business, but customer service is extremely important to me and plays a major role in whether I return. I believe additional customer-service training could make a significant difference in creating a more welcoming experience. The pastries are delicious, though, and I would love to continue supporting the business if the customer-service experience improves.
