    Morning Sandwich
    Kiersten C.

    I swear coffee tastes better on vacation! We found Java Nation while traveling to Maryland for the college rugby championships and are officially obsessed with their delicious drinks and scratch made dishes! We ended up going back twice! We were greeted right when we walked in and the staff was patient as we looked over the large menu. Plenty of seating inside and they have a nice outdoor patio for when the weather gets better. The blueberry muffin was the best I have ever eaten! The slightest hint of sweetness made all the difference! You could taste how fresh all the ingredients were! The breakfast sandwich was massive and filling. I would love to come back again for the dinner/cocktails! Plenty of street parking available and the restaurant/bathrooms were very clean.

    It was my friends first time at Java, and she had a beautiful experience. The staff is so nice and kind. Rebecca A was so kind to us. She made the matcha drink amazing!! My wings were on point!! And the arepa was good too. I love the aioli sauce they have it's amazing if you haven't tried it. Thank you again Rebecca you were so kind to us!! We will be back.

    Always a great place to grab a quick sweet treat and coffee! We went here to warm up and get some work done, the lattes were great and I loved the Halloween decorations! Classy, cute and very on theme! The location is fabulous (right on the corner) and they have cute outdoor seating and bar seating by the window. I will say parking is a little annoying because you have to park in the large parking lot in the back and then walk to the coffee shop rather than having their own parking lot. There is street parking but inhave never found an open spot. Love this place and ordering and receiving drinks was normal speed.

    Mushroom & Goat Omelet

    Java Nation is a nice spot to grab a quick bite to eat. The two breakfast items my husband and I chose were quite good. He had the Ham and Cheese Omelet, and I chose the Mushroom and Goat Omelet. The entire meal was light and fulfilling both in flavor and portion size. The salad was fresh, and the breakfast potatoes were hot, crispy, and perfectly seasoned. I did find that the Vanilla Cappuccino was rather strong, so I mentioned it to one of the staff, and they happily adjusted the drink to my liking. The servers were excellent, and the setting was peaceful. We would definitely return and recommend the cafe to others.

    Everything bagel and cream cheese.  Choice between two bagels (everything and plain) and one cream cheese- plain.

    Came here for a bagel and cream cheese and a coffee this morning. When I "Yelped" bagel, this place appeared on the list and I haven't been here before. It's a nice, well-lit, comfortable spot with pleasant and not-too-loud music (techno right now) playing from above. It's not very busy right now - clearly a nice place to hang with a coffee. They offer plain and everything bagels. And they offer plain cream cheese. Essentially, this isn't a bagel place. The everything bagel I had was "fine," likely packaged. Could have been toasted a bit more. The cream cheese is very soft and light - I liked it. The coffee came in a nice mug. The coffee was smooth and good. The folks here were friendly this morning and I felt welcomed. I don't know what to do about scoring, because this isn't a bagel place (and it doesn't advertise itself as one). I don't want to criticize the place because I ordered something that isn't their core menu. If you're looking for a bagel, there are other bagel places in the area that make them on site and have more variety. Here, the bagel and cream cheese is $5.50 and the coffee was $4.25. They also have an extensive beer, wine and cocktail menu.

    I've been to this Java Nation before, but it's been about 4 years. I like to visit this location the menu is largeand the foodis good. The simple ambiance is great and the friendly atmosphere is a win. I loved the coffee. The service was warm and quick. in all fairness, it was a slower shift on Friday night so please count for that. On my next visit I will be eating there and having some of the desserts that is definitely a feast for your eyes so I will give them a try. Let me know what you think.

    Margarita flights

    Girls branch!!!! Came to have lunch with a good friend of mine. This was her first time coming here so I had to show her how good this place is. We didn't know what to choose because they have so many options, but we ended up choosing 2 steak and eggs which comes with potatoes on the side and the margarita flights which include the classic margarita, the passionfruit, spicy watermelon and a sangria, which were all delicious!!!!! We couldn't stop talking about how good and tasteful the food was cooked! We asked for the steak to be medium well, the fired eggs over easy and it was so so good. The steak comes with extra sauce to pour on top of it! Makes it extra juicy! Do I recommend this place? 100% yes ! There's still a lot for me to try!

    Honestly, just go here for coffee, the drinks were a disappointment. My friend and I were in Kentlands from a Yelp event and decided to wander around Main street. I've always wanted to try Java Nation, but it was way to late to have coffee/caffeine so we decided to get a drink instead. Every drink I ordered they did not have. She said they're not a bar, so they don't have many of the ingredients. Um, okay then why do you have extensive bar menu? I eventually had to settle for a Spicy watermelon margarita. Thankfully it wasn't too spicy for my liking. My friend got the Cherryshed which was decent at best. The place is aesthetic and has a nice café ambience, I just wouldn't go here for drinks or happy hour.

    Chicken Avo Arepa

    I recently visited Java Nation in Kentlands again and enjoyed their Chicken Avocado dish paired with coffee. The flavors were delightful, and the experience did not disappoint. The prices were reasonable, and while the place was very busy, it offered the option to dine indoors or outside. It's a very relaxed environment, music playing in the background and still able to enjoy my own music through my ear buds. It great for families or your friends. They're known for their smoothies and deserts. Highly recommend!

    Really good food and even better service. Only reason it's missing a star is because it's pretty expensive.
