    Cream cheese muffin, lavender oat milk iced latte
    Jeanie N.

    Grossly overpriced items for the quality of food and drink here (I'm talking almost $20 for a muffin and a drink) I give points for spacious seating, clean bathroom, some okay pastries, and cute birds But surfaces are often sticky, the serve yourself water station could use a cleaning, and there are often flies inside the cafe and within the food display

    Grilled Chicken Sandwich
    Crist M.

    I was in need of a study space and came across this place - many of the smaller ones wobble a lot but its only a minor inconvenience - outlets: plenty of outlets along the walls - WIFI works - food: Way to pricey. You cant go wrong with their house special chicken sandwich and sweet mexican mocha. Save your money and dont get the Chicken quesadilla (expensive and just plain). -hours: usually close 30 mins before time stated they close. Still too early to actually study

    Came here just for a quick cup of coffee and chai. The drinks were okay nothing spectacular. The staff seemed stressed or in a bad mood. They have lots of seating inside and even birds in a cage! Which was so cool. My cappuccino wasn't the best quality coffee I've had and I didn't finish it. The chai was spicy gingery and good there was okay street parking

    Dirty CHAI LATTE Veggie Falafel Wrap Bagel with Feta Pesto and Tomato
    Desiny C.

    As a resident of Ingleside, I've been to Java on Ocean quite a few times and have brought friends along on multiple occasions. I usually enjoy myself there. The ambience is great, bright, welcoming windows, plenty of seating, and lots of beautiful art and plants that make the space feel cozy and inviting. The food and drinks are good as well. My favorites are the veggie falafel and the feta tomato bagel. However, if you're on a budget, this may not be the best spot. The prices for both food and drinks are fairly high, which makes it hard to be a regular, especially for students like me and my friends. While the atmosphere and seating are nice, studying there can be a bit of a gamble if you need Wi-Fi. Even though there are plenty of outlets, which is a big plus, I personally haven't experienced reliable Wi-Fi during my visits. If you're looking for a dependable place to study or work, you may want to consider another location. Overall, Java on Ocean is a great local spot for a first visit or for meeting up and having a good conversation. That said, it doesn't feel like a place most people would return to regularly unless they live within walking distance.

    Pastrami sandwich, beef salami sandwich
    Patrick L.

    Food is solid. Don't expect to be blown away or disappointed. Large variety of choices, especially with sandwiches. No pork on the menu. The atmosphere is great if looking for a place to study or catch up with friends. There are available outlets in the walls if you are looking to charge a device. Service is quick and the staff are nice.

    Cute coffee shop that has good lighting and plenty of tables and chairs for your studying, reading, and hanging out needs. Great selection of treats and pastries, and canned/bottled drinks in their fridges. Coffee a bit pricey but still yummy. Barista was very nice!

    My family and I have been coming here for YEARS! It's a spacious cafe that has a great selection of breakfast, brunch, and lunch options. They have amazing drinks and smoothies as well. On top of it all, they have beautiful art and vibrant plants throughout their space. Definitely one of my go to spots to study in between classes.

    This is truthfully my new favorite coffee shop in the city. Latinx-owned, just enough seating to…read morenever feel busy, and great food to match the great drinks. I went on a weekday and was hoping to get some work done. Most of the seats were available when I got there and the staff kindly shared the WiFi. They were overall extremely friendly and just their vibe made me want to go back again. I think a pitfall of a lot of SF coffee shops is the food, but both the drinks and food were superb and just what I needed to kickstart my day. They have unique flavors and seasonal drinks. I'm inspired to make my way through the menu! PS if you're a transit girly like me, this is right along the K line!

You can go for blocks in SF and find hardly any coffee shops and then go to certain neighborhoods where there are more than one coffee shop within a block. There is one located on Ocean ( not salty one ) Avenue in SF which has its own charm with drinks and pastries and it is called Charm Coffee. On a Summer stroll where rain drops fall and the sun comes out after I landed on Ocean ( not the beach) avenue. Inside Charm Coffee you will see a menu with toast and jam and grilled cheese like some in SF but you will also find avocado toast and cheesy quesadillas. They also matcha for Don Juan de la Matcha. I got the iced mocha which had a smooth taste and it was refreshing. I then I got the butter croissant which was flakey like some I seen on my social feed in SF. This place is a good place to make a pit stop on Ocean avenue. There is a "place" away from the "rat race" in SF which is a coffee shop with its own flavor and "taste" with a slower "pace" The weather is unpredictable in the Summer you better cover your "arm"and also be "alarm"if it rains you can go to a place to get organic coffee straight out a Latin American "coffee farm" and the place is on Ocean not the salty beach in SF but the avenue and it's called " Charm"

I expected a decent crowd since it was a work holiday, but I ended up being the only one there. Loved that! DRINKS: 8/10 SERVICE: 10/10 AMBIANCE: 9/10 What I ordered: Brown Sugar Toffee Nut Iced Latte with Oatmilk ($7.88) DRINKS: 8/10 I ordered a Brown Sugar Toffee Nut Iced Latte, and I thought it was good, just not the best iced latte I've ever had. Considering the price point and the size, it felt a bit expensive. To be fair, it's a specialty syrup drink, and I did substitute oat milk, so the cost makes sense. Still, I know other places that offer a slightly larger size for around the same price. My drink tasted a little watered down, but not so much that it ruined the flavor. I could still taste the brown sugar and toffee nut notes. I just wish the espresso flavor came through a bit stronger. On the bright side, I love that they use Califia Barista Oat Milk! SERVICE: 10/10 The staff were very friendly and charismatic, which added to the cheerful morning vibes... loved that! The barista made my drink fairly quickly, but I was also the only one there, haha. AMBIANCE: 9/10 This café definitely had a friendly, community vibe. The first thing I noticed when I walked in was a bulletin board and table filled with community resources, local services, pamphlets, news, and small business ads. I honestly love that. There was plenty of seating, with both group tables and bar stools available. The décor was simple yet cute, which added to the cozy atmosphere. PARKING: 9/10 (does not count toward rating) Parking wasn't as bad as I expected, especially since the café is located on a main street with nearby train stops. I appreciated that the parking spots were spacious, and there's also residential parking available. Since it was a work holiday, I thought it would be packed, but there was actually plenty of street parking.
