The grits are amazing. So is the coffee. Cute place. Friendly service. Portion sizes aren't absurdly huge.

We came here while on vacation. Everyone's food was burn. It was a nice little place in front of the beach but definitely not worth the money. read more

Saw a video last night on this restaurant, so I passed by today. WOW!!! I haven't had a gyro this good, in a looooong time!!! The waitresses are THE BEST!!! They are all so sweet and just ready to get you anything you need. Will DEF come back!!! read more

This is the best breakfast place in Flagler Beach. When in Flagler we probably eat here the times a week. My favorite is the shrimp and grits. My wife's is the crab cake Benedict. But everything is fabulous. The staff work as a team do each one is making if your coffee and water are full. One might take your order, another bring your food and someone else may bring you check. read more

Totally quintessential small ocean vibe w/ great food and wait staff. Just breakfast and lunch but always fun on the deck and with a great view just across from the Atlantic Ocean. Always eat accompanied by the sound of the surf! They don't have a liquor license ( just beer and wine) but they do make great Bloody Mary's by exchanging the vodka for Sake. The customer traffic ebbs and flows but you might expect a wait on weekends. We locals enjoy a midweek breakfast often! read more

This restaurant never disappoints! I started coming nine years ago when I first moved to the area. What an amazing view of the ocean with outdoor seating for that front row view. Enjoy the breeze as you enjoy the great food. The French toast muffin is a must try. The menu touts many selections not found at other restaurants on the beach. Sadly, only open for breakfast and lunch but come at 7 if you want to watch the sunrise with a great cup of coffee! read more

Wonderful service Wonderful people Exquisite view. Food missed the mark Spinach and tomato Benedict and the sauce was curdled. Potatoes home fries were not worth it. I got the banana bread French toast and it begged for real maple syrup. Omelette was tomato and onion and cheese and the onions were grilled not fresh and the tomatoes were also grilled. The meal just missed what it could have been. read more

This was the only place I could find serving breakfast nearby, and boy was I lucky. The Philly Breakfast Burrito was perfectly balanced in terms of flavor, comfort, and excitement. I paired the burrito with a side of perfectly prepared hash browns (crispy top layer, moist on the bottom) They have amazing deck seating with a view to kill and the servers all work together sharing tables. This place must be a local staple and they do not rest on their laurels. They keep bringing it read more

So glad we selected this place for lunch a few days ago! A few of the pros include: Excellent Florida beer selection, dog friendly, outstanding customer service, beautiful porch (and view) and jazzy 70s music.... And the lunch itself... At first, I was super worried when looking over the menu. Not many "healthy" options (vegan, dairy free, low fat, etc). However, our waitress was so accommodating, I made many changes to my order and special requests, she didn't bat an eye! My order was made exactly as I'd asked and it was delicious!! read more

Really loved our experience here! A local recommended and it did not disappoint! Beach vibes and friendly people!!! I got the eggs Benedict and my husband got the biscuits and gravy and it was delicious!!! A lot of local patrons who offered other great places for us to visit! Big hot cup of coffee as well! read more

This was 1 hour wait! Way too many flies my niece and I were being bit could use a good cleaning. The food was nothing to right home about. They forgot my vacant. The sausage was cold. I could go on but trust me don't go read more

The food was good, but not a single member of the staff was wearing a mask. I thought this was incredibly unfortunate and made myself and my immune compromised parents uncomfortable. While we shouldn't have stayed in the first place, and that was our own decision, I wanted to point this out for customers who care about the safety and wellness of others. read more

Where do I begin, this place is a fantastic way to start your day!!! The staff is absolutely fantastic, the mimosas are cheap and loaded with champagne. The food is cheap, yet delicious!!! Plus you have a beach front view from the porch. What else can you ask for. Plus, the server was a basshead! read more

Java Joint Beachside Grill - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Flagler Beach, Florida

Ceab cakes Benedict and shrimp n grits delicious-good cappuccino but machine is broken right now

I'm super happy to have found this amazing coffee shop near my house. I've been to coffee shops around the world, and I have to say this is one of my favorites. Where else can you drink great coffee or cappucino and have an unobstructed view of the ocean? Not many places my friends. At least not enough in America. The Java Joint rocks. Free wifi. Great food - yummy breakfasts and lunch...mimosas...need I say more? The staff are super friendly and become family after a few visits. I'm freelance so I use the coffee shop as my office sometimes and I love giving them all the business I can. They are open daily till 4pm and are open late on full moon nights. I heart Java Joint!! read more

Java Joint Beachside Grill - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Flagler Beach, Florida

Food was mediocre, it's hard to mess up a classic eggs Benedict and breakfast quesadilla. Staff was friendly, atmosphere was beautiful (nice view of the water) but the cafe was not at all covid friendly, the servers and cooks did not wear masks. Very disappointing safety measures. read more

This is the best quick breakfast. The portions are reasonable as well as the price. Everything is cooked fresh so it's hot and yummy. I had to come back a second time because the multi grain walnut pancakes were so good. We also wanted to explore other items on the menu. The service is excellent so 5 stars rating. Ok I need to change my review. It is not quick. I guess we were lucky the last time we ate here. We have been waiting 40 minutes for breakfast. While the wait staff have kept us in water and coffee they have not offered any explanation of why we are waiting. At one point no one in the dinning room had food. I hope it is at least good this time. One more update. The food was great just a long wait. The wait staff finally explained the cook quit and someone else did not show up. read more

Shout out to Java Joint Beachside GrillI. I had been wanting to check it out for a while but it's always packed. Hubby and I arrived very early yesterday (love that they open at 7:00) and parked. By the time we walked up the ramp Rhonda had noticed we had our two dogs and she had a table, water bowl for our dogs and two dog treats waiting for them. (Talk about Service!) Menu was pretty expansive. We opted for a Bloody Mary (him) and I had a Java Mocha. We had their special banana bread French toast and a side of corn beef hash and gravy and biscuits. All very tasty and all with an amazing ocean view. While there, several other employees checked on us frequently. I love how friendly and hometown it was. I also had a question about the bill they resolved it right away. If you haven't been, check it out!! read more

The service was less than good. The food was okay. The servers acted like it was a hassle to wait on us. I had to go out of my way to ask someone for a water refill. My friend, who invited us to join him since he's been there before, was embarrassed for us and was disappointed in how we were treated. Our server was very quick to ask if we were done (didn't offer us water refills or if we wanted anything else), rang us up, and didn't even thank us for coming in. Won't be going back read more

Perfect breakfast on the beach spot. Everyone loves the Java Joint. The service is beyond friendly and helpful! We were waiting for a table and it was quite hot out and the staff offered us water while we waited. They have an outdoor deck for dogs as well! Prime spot to watch the waves. The food is quite delicious. I recommend the chocolate chip pancake. The grits and bacon are also great. Very reasonable prices and all around a great experience! read more

Java Joint Beachside Grill - Outside - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Flagler Beach, Florida

Love this place. Great coffee ( fantastic latte's) and fantastic breakfast fare. Service is always great. Has seating inside and outside with a beautiful beachfront view. My only reason for not giving 5 stars is it's pretty loud inside. That has nothing to do with food or service, its a small place and it's just a fact. If you're having a business meeting breakfast.. this might not be the spot. If you're just having breakfast than this is a great place!!! read more

Zero covid safety. Go only if you don't mind servers in your face and food with no masks and customers who could also care less about your safety. It is also hot and crowded. I would say supporting this restaurant is a great disservice to all who care about health and the well being of people. Total zero. read more

Great place in normal times. However no one on staff wears a mask. While we love coming here, we won't be coming back until we are vaccinated for COVID-19. read more

The Mocha Zone is a fine establishment. Enjoy the breeze between the plenty of room. Based on the name (Mocha Zone), you'd think all they serve is mocha. But there's so much more! Enjoy the side of lemon rind with your espresso and plenty of room. 5 stars for the Mocha Zone! P.S., If you want stronger drinks, there's complimentary GermX. Also karaoke on Saturday mornings. read more

Java Joint Beachside Grill - Plenty of room - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Flagler Beach, Florida

Amazing view, amazing food and amazing service! My mom and grandma ordered the two egg special with sides. My grandmas grits were so good my mom and I ordered a second side of them to share! I ordered the Tomato and Spinach Benedict ( I then was able to substitute the Spinach with mushrooms) with hashbrowns. My eggs Benedict was incredible- the hollandaise was deliciously creamy with a hint of lemon! We all cleared our plates! The hashbrowns are nothing special so order the grits when you eat here! The staff was personable and great too! read more

Java Joint Beachside Grill - Incredible view - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Flagler Beach, Florida

This place is always a favorite when we visit Flagler. This time, however, we left our table before being served. NONE of the employees are wearing masks. During a global pandemic where wearing a mask is the best way to prevent servers from infecting customers, this is flat-out irresponsible. We will not be returning until after the COVID-19 pandemic is over. read more

Great ocean view. Great service. Breakfast: Delicious & inexpensive. *Well trained dogs on a leash allowed in the outside sitting area. read more

Java Joint Beachside Grill - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Flagler Beach, Florida

Uh oh. Every time we visit the area, this is alway our first stop. For years and years we have come here and I latest ordered is the shrimp and grits. I have always been happy with the way they prepare it. I'm still real happy. The grits are creamy and a smidge cheesy. Perfect. Our issue this last visit was the breakfast burrito. We always order this - it was good but not so happy with the giant chunks of potatoes. It's like a filler. Not so happy. read more

Java Joint reopening - went to the Java Joint around 1230pm, the place was about 25% of capacity with our party of 4. Kitchen very slow! Had to hunt for a coffee refill and the food was not up to their prior standards. It is apparent that they need a good manager as the adequate amount of servers were huddled in the kitchen and not on floor. 2 of us got our food and no one noticed that 2 orders never came out. No check backs. We were told the ticket was lost. No apology from manager and no attempt to comp anything. Additionally the interior of restaurant was very warm and uncomfortable. Won't be back for a while as we were former regulars prior and during covid. Ownership needs to wake up! read more

We've visited on prior weekends to the area. I talked about the French toast made with banana nut bread for days the first time it had it. I've ordered it 2 other times. Yum! Service is good, staff is cheerful and helpful. The view is great, very beach feel to the place. This time we visited Sept 18th (2020) for breakfast during a pandemic with orders to wear masks. Masks are to protect others. Not a single employee was wearing a mask or even had visible possession of a mask. What does that say about their interest in protecting their clientele? read more

Food and service good overall. Nice scenery on a nice day great outdoor place to eat. Make sure you understand people like to bring dogs and be aware of sun and wait times during peak hours. Drinks can get pricy quick but you are paying for atmosphere as well. The fish tacos are great! read more

Service slow, food cold. Very disappointing! Should have continued to where we were heading and left this joint in our rear view mirror!

Fantastic little breakfast/lunch place. I had the crabcake Benedict for breakfast. You can also get bloody Mary's and Mamosa's. There's indoor seating and a nice deck. The building is directly across from the ocean for a nice view. Service was excellent. read more

LOVE everything about this place! Staff, food, music, location. Friendliest staff EVER! Came for breakfast on a Saturday morning. Immediately greeted by smiling faces and upbeat attitudes. Autumn was super sweet and our main server but everyone helped each other. Mentioned that we had a dog at home. Autumn brought a couple dog treats to take home to him!!! Definitely will make a point to come back when in the area. read more

The location is quaint & colorful as you would expect from a beachside cafe. Plenty of outdoor seating but small & a bit cramped inside. No room for real social distancing either. The servers were friendly, no masks but the food was good. I enjoyed the breakfast quesadilla with sausage, egg, onion, mushrooms & cheese. Sour cream & salsa topped it off. Hubby had the Java bowl & daughter had the chocolate chip pancakes. I'd visit again when in the area. read more

The food was so good and the service was even better! We got the crab cake Benedict, Mahi Omelet, and Kahlua French toast read more

Java Joint Beachside Grill - Crab Cake Benedict - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Flagler Beach, Florida

Great location and ambiance right by the beach. Had to take off a star because it took over 40 minutes to get food. They were very nice and definitely busy. The crab cake Benedict was awesome, my mom loved her java wrap, and my grandpa loved his bowl (he was the most upset about the wait). My daughter didn't care much for her burger but devoured her and my home fries. We'd be back - and next time to try a a mimosa. Oh and definitely get the home made whipped topping - a MUST read more

Love this place. Service is the best anywhere. The waitresses are extremely pleasant, up-beat, and attentive. The view is relaxing. This is the #1 place on my list to bring guests visiting from out of town. The eggs Benedict with crab cakes is out of this world! I've never been disappointed coming here. read more

Rode our bikes to Java Joint while RV'ing on the beach. What a surprize! I had Crab Cake benedict, and my wife had their Breakfest Barrito; both were outstanding. Service was attentitive, and friendly. They were very busy; so waited too long to get food; but will surely return read more

Great spot with wifi and beautiful view. Unfortunately, disposable plastic is given to guests, even to those who are staying to eat. Plastic is destroying the beautiful ocean that this restaurant overlooks. This review has nothing to do with the delicious food. It is about the business practice of using disposable plastic to save time and money. Too many Flagler business owners are comfortable with this. Pls take ownership and use real cups and ramekins. This article helps paint a great picture about how serious of a problem plastic is for our oceans: http://www.plasticoceans.net/index.php/new-map-reveals-extent-of-ocean-plastic/ For my muffin that I took to go, it was put in a Styrofoam container and then in a plastic bag with a bunch of napkins. All I needed was it to be wrapped in a napkin. I appreciate that they want to be clean and to offer good customer service, but it's not necessary to use so much plastic and packaging just for one muffin. For the breakfast of eggs that I stayed there to eat, I was given a disposable plastic cup for my water and disposable ramekins for sour cream and salsa. The staff there are extremely nice and so is the owner. This is not personal. It's just about taking care of our planet. read more
