My husband and I have incorporated a lot of juicing into our lives since last summer. But, you know, sometimes you just want someone else to make your juice for you. I've been here twice to get Beet Me Up juices and they are great. Last time I tried an acai bowl, but it just doesn't hold a candle to Vitality Bowls, so those are *meh*. They have an oatmeal bar in the morning and one of the cashiers told me you can customize your juice and they'll make whatever you want. I wish they were open a little later, but they said it's dead in downtown Pleasanton after 5pm, so they close early. Disappointed by the hours and the lackluster acai bowls, but love the juice, so this gets an A-OK with me! read more

Everyone's been talking about super foods and eating those Acai bowls, so this morning I decided to give one a try. It was basically composed of a frozen acai juice blend topped with granola, finely shredded coconut and banana slices. It came in a very small cup and literally only contained a teaspoon of granola and even less coconut. I think this is something fairly easy to make at home so I probably wouldn't go back and pay $5.95 + tax for this again. It was an OK, quick and filling snack after walking around the farmer's market on a warm morning though. Service was good. My friend ordered a smoothie also $5.95. Our order was made quickly and the cashier was nice. read more

Finally a fabulous fresh juice place in town! kinda pricey, but so yummy.

I'm only basing this review on their ACAI BOWLS. I'm a true lover of acai bowls and I have to say this place does not make PURE acai bowls. I was really disappointed. Either than that, the place seems cute and comfortable and I'm sure the rest of their food/drinks are good. read more

My first time here and the server was so friendly and sweet! Her positive attitude really made my day and I appreciated her enthusiasm and her helpfulness in explaining the menu to me(: loved her and the food was delicious to boot! read more

Gotta say I'm very happy to see this place finally open :) I love their smoothies! And I'm so happy they are organic! They have lots of unique snacks (like roasted chickapeas) and fun Smoothie flavors! I recommend the green isle. Very tasty! I think the best feature here is the staff. Very friendly and very helpful :) highly recommend this place for the health conscious snacker :) read more

Reminds me of the juice bars in So. Cal. Fun staff and fresh juice. Perfect! I had the Green Isle smoothie and would definitely come back for more! read more

I always get the Green Isle smoothie. It has apples, pears, spinach, a banana and almond milk. I also add in either a spirulina or probiotic boost for an extra fifty cents. read more

Yummy! This is a great place to get a sandwich and salad for lunch! I usually stop every morning for a muffin too. Great, healthy food choice in downtown Pleasanton! And, the people are super friendly!! read more

Kind staff but I was a little disappointed that my Large Acai Bowl was 85% granola and that my espresso was 4 dollars. I will probably return, mostly because it is a local business and there aren't many gluten free, easy and healthy choices around. read more

I was introduced to Juice & Java by a friend in my office building as a good place to get a quick deli sandwich. Quality was great, price was fair and had a very friendly staff. So whether you want a sandwich, smoothie or a morning bagel I think it's a great local business to support! read more

This place has been a welcome addition to downtown Pleasanton. It serves delicious smoothies made with fresh fruit, fantastic pastries and above-average sandwiches at reasonable prices. For a stretch of town that had been sorely lacking in establishments that offered quality items that are prepared quickly, Juice and Java has been a perfect fit for downtown Pleasanton. read more

Love this place! They have smoothies (purple poodle is my fave), coffee drinks, salads, sandwiches, bakery items, even gluten free. Their salads and sandwiches are always wonderful with high quality ingredients for a super affordable price. As an example, I had an awesome salad today.. Huge with lots of veggies, dried cranberries, feta, candied walnuts... $4.95!! Highly recommend. read more

I love this place!!! They made my little girl feel welcome and they have little toys for kids to play with! Not sure if the ladies there are tbe owners but they are SUPER nice they have yummy wraps and some gluten free items! I love it def will be back! read more

Came here once, loved it. Ordered the Dragonfly - delish. Excited to go back again and try some different smoothies. Great customer service, happy staff, happy place. read more

Cute lil place I happened on while I was at the farmers market. Loved the Blues R Good. Will be back to try the other juices :-)

Occasionally on Saturdays i like to go to the farmers market in Pleasanton and this spot is just along the main rode where the market runs. I have only tried their Vanilla honey latte and it is very tasty if I must say so myself. They are really good at managing lines and quickly helping customers and getting their drinks out. They also have water conveniently available so you don't need to ask. Just pour yourself a cup. read more

Great juices, smoothies, sandwiches and ginger shots. The staff is helpful and always remember my drink modifications.

I love the Mocha Madness and the Cucumber and Beet juice on ice. Friendly service and I like how you get points for every drink you buy to earn a free drink. read more

So glad I found this place. Terrific service and lots of choices. Great spot when shopping at the farmers market on Saturday

Perfect stop for Sat. Farmer's Market shopping and their Ascani Bowl is yum...The owner is super nice and great service! read more

Juice & Java Express - Cute flower decoration! - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Pleasanton, California

There is a lot to appreciate about Juice & Java: from having a healthy option for breakfast and lunch to their great menu; you can even get your morning cup of java. Everything I've had here is great. The cherry on top is the manager Carleen. I don't know how she juggles it all during the morning rush but she's amazing. She's just another reason I stop here every week. Thank you read more

Love this place come here everyday.All things are good my fav is the daily soup and green lemonade Ps... count how many crystals are hanging all over the place ... read more

I'm thrilled that they finally have a real juice bar in Pleasanton. I like juicing - but hate the clean up at home. Finally I have found a place where I can enjoy veggie juice that tastes great. Cheers! read more

I love having a close place to get an Acai Bowl! Delicious!

I work close by so I end up here about 4 times a week. Everyone that works there is so accommodating. They are always willing to whip me up something special to meet my vegetarian needs. I love all the sandwiches and salads they have ready to go. Everything is fresh and delicious. read more

JUICE & JAVA EXPRESS Everyone loves this place :) Great tasting and healthy too!! Amazing service!! read more

This place is merely "okay." I work nearby, so I do tend to go here more often than I would even like to admit.. But lately it seems to be going pretty downhill after the switch of ownership. The basics: The juices and smoothies are your best bet. Typically pretty consistent and well made. Sandwiches tend to be more of what you could make at home with simple things that you probably have on hand for 1/4 of the price. The milk tea with boba is completely flavorless and I ended up dumping the whole thing out right after the first sip. Acai bowls are always hit or miss. The employees are always really kind, but the service can be devastatingly slow.. So don't come if you're in any sort of rush. They don't stay open for the posted hours, multiple times they have closed early for no reason other than what I'm suspecting is slow business. If you're looking for a refreshing healthy juice and you're willing to spend 6-9 dollars for it, this is your place. Anything else I would recommend looking elsewhere. read more

This place is fantastic! The staff is insanely friendly, the smoothies are delicious and they have a massive variety of gluten free snacks. A welcome addition to downtown pleasanton :) read more

Wow---awesome juice and just as awesome (maybe even more so!)was the green salad with fresh and dried fruits and nuts. Very delicious and satisfying. My new favorite place!!! read more

The staff here are so nice and helpful. Many of my coworkers go here on a regular basis. They have a variety of drinks my favorite is the Peach Peach. They make some pretty good blended coffees and the oatmeal bar is delicious. If you are looking for some good food and drinks stop by. read more

I really like their smoothies here because they are a healthy alternative and many are dairy free, but they are very inconsistent. Sometimes they are runny, sometimes thick. The flavors are also not consistent. Just wish I could get the same smoothie every time. I recently purchased my own Vitamix so that I didn't have to go to this place to get what I wanted anymore. Most of the staff is very unfriendly, and often dressed very unprofessional...even for this type of setting (baggy tank top that shows side of bra, baggy short sweatpants...looked like she just rolled out of bed and came to work). Whenever I ask for something more personalized for my smoothie, every single worker (except for one very sweet girl!) that I have dealt with has seemed annoyed...and i'm pretty sure I have dealt with everyone that works there. And then to top it off they use their bare hands to handle fruit and veggies that go into my smoothie. Gross!! Most times that I get a smoothie here, I walk out frustrated. Things they need to improve: -Smoothies that are consistent, everytime!! -Hire new workers...they are so rude! -Clean up the place and the employees...very unprofessional. I don't plan on returning here unless I am dying of thirst at the farmers market. And even then I'm not sure I want to fork out $6 for an inconsistent smoothie made by messy, rude, unprofessional workers. read more

I just had their tuna sandwhich grilled on gulten free bread with melted pepper jack cheese and sliced tomato. This was so delicious! My new favorite thing to eat for lunch, snack or even dinner! It was so filling and full of healthy flavor. read more

I run a local business downtown and have frequented Juice & Java since it first opened. Original owner Angela was great and built a nice brand, reputation and experience. Early this year she sold the business. I have continued to frequent but now am concerned that new ownership forgot some basics around customer experience. Sadly, profit trumped people today. I hope new owner treats staff better than she treats customers. read more

Super friendly staff, bomb smoothie and amazing sandwich! Smart way to put together your own sandwich

This is a great place!!! A one of a kind, must try! The signature purple poodle is yummy and a tasty treat!! The green isle is also a fabulous recommendation. Love birds is tasty!!! The menu is creative and nutritious. The smoothies taste healthy without additives. Conveniently located downtown Pleasanton. Customer service was excellent, the overall feel of the place was clean and fresh. The atmosphere is lovely, warm and welcoming as well as dog friendly. I love this place and wish I had one closer to my location. I plan on visiting every time I am in the area. read more

This place is absolutely a fraud. I'm from Santa Barbara and I am completely experienced with the whole organic Acai Bowl, and what is required to make a good blend. Today I walked in and asked if they were using organic acai, because the sign says that they offer organic (when in season). Anyway, I asked if it was in season, and the cashier responded, "Well Ya, I mean it's from Brazil and it's wildly grown there, so yes it's organic". Unfortunately, even the possible owner (???) doesn't even know what organic means.... then, my mom who is an avid home juicer, walked in a few hours later and asked for the Fresh Grow Tall Green Juice, she proceeded to watch the woman pour some strange juice from a tupperware and then blend the ingredients in a vita-mixer....when she had ordered she assumed it would be actual fresh juice, and not from a Tupperware saved from god know's when. Moral of the story if you want to get a blended juice or a acai bowl, save the frustration and just take your business to the local jamba juice. read more

This is a place to go for a healthy fix! They have different vegan milk options for your smoothies and the fruit and vegetables are fresh. They also have also healthy snacks and salads! Oh and complimentary infused water! read more

I'm giving it 5 stars just for the "honor" coffee system. What's a great idea! You put $2 in a piggy jar, serve yourself coffee and go! No standing in a line just to get a cup of brewed coffee. There are other great reasons to love this place too. The smoothies are so yummy and good for you!! I've tried the "Dragonfly" (great!) and the "Green Isle" which has spinach in it (what a great way to hide veggies in a drink!). I've also had the green salad with mandarin oranges, almonds, cucumbers, tomatoes with a blueberry vinaigrette dressing (who makes dressing with blueberries!?). It was really good. The portions are appropriate and the ingredients are fresh and organic. This is the place to go to get something quick, healthy and delicious to eat/drink. Tomorrow morning I'm going to try the oatmeal. There's a bar set up with toppings you choose yourself. What a breath of fresh air this place is. It's just what downtown Pleasanton needed. read more

Tried for my first. Decided to get a cup of soup and Californian sandwich. A lot of money for the quantity of food. Sandwich super small, not that good. The chicken noodle soup was like 90% broth and 10% noodles. The bacon on my sandwich wasn't cooked all the way, and the lettuce seemed old. I did like the lemonade. Will try other items next time. read more
