    Nothing special about this coffee house, coffee is good, it's hot and it's pricey. On a cold Sunday morning expect a long wait.

    Vanilla and Hazelnut Oat Latte with cold foam
    Nichelle R.

    I got a vanilla hazelnut oat milk latte and it was deliciousss! It was super enjoyable. The service was good too but the only thing I would say is I would've appreciated if my order got called out or something because I was sitting in the back and couldn't really see when my drink was out. The overall shop is pretty welcoming and has a cozy vibe to it. There is also plenty of sitting and makes a nice place to sit down and chat with family or friends.

    Stopped by Java Ranch for a grab and go coffee and snack over the weekend. Coffee was good, could have been hotter. Sausage cheese biscuit was great, highlight the flaky biscuit. Very comfortable space, maintains the original architecture of the building on Main Street. Plenty of merch for those inclined. Nice place to visit for coffee and breakfast treat.

    We stopped in here after checking out a couple other coffee shops in the area. I got their honey Lavender Latte and it was great. I would recommend stoping in!

    Blueberry breech matcha
    Neha G.

    Great coffee place. We got to try the iced blueberry breech matcha which was from their March special menu and blueberry muffin. Upon request, they were able to heat it up. Both items were really good and were around $10-11. Mix of old and modern vibes, will definitely recommend this.

    Cappuccino

    Drink was a little darker than I would expect, but smooth (opted for oat milk). Service was excellence. Ambience was as expected for a busy Saturday - felt like a mini merit coffee. Also tasted the cinnamon pecan scone and it was decent. Would not fight a crowd to eat here, but if on the way I would not mind stopping by - just didn't stand out for me.

    Coffee

    Good Coffee and good service. Passing through Fredericksburg on a Sunday morning and we were pleased to find Java ranch. Limited food items but that was not the reason for the stop.

    Right on Main Street
    Jamie C.

    Great little place right on Main Street for a quick breakfast bite. Fast, friendly service. There are a couple outdoor tables available or enjoy your breakfast in the cozy cafe. Highly recommend the French toast muffin!

    Saloon style!
    Alyssa Marie H.

    Fun Saloon style and walk up coffee bar inside. Fun flavors, I had the Banana one. It was interesting. Not in a bad way, but I might want to try something different next time. Friendly service!

    Raspberry Matcha !
    Shay K.

    A beautiful coffee shop with lots of coffee choices and delicious pastries. I had a perfectly made hot latte and visited 3 times while I town. A definite must if you like coffee!

    Cozy spot, great coffee. The cashier was very helpful she took time to explain the specials.

    Deja
    Sam M.

    Very good I drank a matcha and Deja had a coffee, big fan I would come back, very nice

    Matcha latte (oat milk) and cafe latte (oat milk)
    Kathy H.

    I come here many times when I visit Fredericksburg. Such a cute place to read a book, hangout with friends/family, and even work. Their coffee is delicious as well as their other none coffee drinks. They do have a small selection of smalls bites which is also taste. I would recommender the wrapped hotdog. The employees are quick and knowledgeable.

They updated their porch to have more coverage which will be great once summer really hits. Inside is great too. We've sat in all the areas. We went all out for our brunch date (mom & dad time out). Cold brew with vanilla, caramel iced latte... yummmm! We started with zucchini fries and they were hot, crunchy and delicious. I had the brunch burger (it was huge!) with sweet potato fries. I love their sweet potato fries. Husband tried the special- biscuit love - says it's good for anyone who loves gravy and brunch dessert was the banana French toast - we got the banana on the side and a side of berries. Yum yum yum. Soft and pillowy. Thank you Sam! See you soon :)

Our…read moreserver Cassie greeted us almost immediately and was friendly and attentive from start to finish. She really made the experience. I ordered the Eggs Benedict, substituting bacon for ham, with a biscuit and gravy on the side. The Eggs Benedict was good. I loved the unexpected touch of Swiss cheese, which added a nice twist to a classic dish. The hollandaise was a little on the sour side, but the bacon was cooked perfectly. The biscuit and gravy was the real star of my meal, so good that I almost wish I had ordered it as my main! Definitely getting that next time. My husband went for The Big Ass Sandwich and loved it. Fair warning- it lives up to its name. It's big, it's messy, and it's absolutely worth it. He said the same thing I was thinking: we need to come back. We'll definitely be returning on our next trip to Fredericksburg. Highly recommend if you're looking for a great breakfast spot with good food and even better service!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

The service is always so great and everyone is always smiling and friendly! Seriously, this alone goes SO far to making an "in and out quick" place a hit. It's always clean inside too. They're great whether we drive thru or go inside. Though I will say that the drive thru and parking can be tough. It's a small place with a small parking lot and the drive thru can't go anywhere except straight thru the lot. I'd suggest parking next door behind the dollar store (easier entry, easier exit). It's hard to make bad donuts. That, or I've just been lucky my whole life. But my picky son actually orders something different quite often here and always enjoys it. The jalapeño kolaches (I'll not get into the argument about what constitutes a kolache) that I typically order are always great! They have a wide selection of breakfast sweets and a fair amount of non-sweets too. Their beverage options are just as varied. A ton to choose from and they even added specialty coffees to the menu a while back. I've had a caramel frappuccino and can say from experience that it's every bit as good as, if not better than, the one I get for a significant price hike at Starbucks. If donuts is what you want for breakfast I would recommend this place without hesitation!
