I'm not from the area and I was in Groton for a pretty random reason. When my youngest didn't want to sleep at the crack of dawn, this was the only place I could find to drive over with her to. I was having a bit of a spiritual moment in my life and I life answered with this cosmically perfect place. I enjoyed a cold brew and a chocolate croissant, but I also had an epiphany on the side. This little Eden on earth was a colorful and pleasant reminder about the nice and the important things in life. read more

Junk & Java - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Westerly, Rhode Island

#33 in my NEW ENGLAND & NY COFFEE SHOP SERIES Such an eclectic place, I love!! This is a huge store with a bunch of different rooms/spaces to sit in, including an outdoor patio which was very cute. I did not study here, but it would be a great spot. Lots of seating and outlets. They have monthly seasonal drinks which they post on their Instagram. I decided to get the seasonal purple cow cold brew and it was good. I personally don't love cold brew, but it tasted good, just very light. They also have a bunch of other coffee shop drinks along with food and smoothies. I would definitely come back here if I was in the area! There is also a large parking lot. read more

Best matcha in town!! The quality and taste of the matcha here is superb. This little cafe serves various pastries as well as your standard coffee and other tea drinks. They also have seasonal lemonades. I also tried their strawberry basil lemonade. The strawberry basil lemonade despite its name did not have any basil in it but instead had a little bit of mint. This might have been an oversight of the worker but I didn't mind. The staff here are very friendly and quick with making your drinks. The cafe is clean and well decorated. There is both indoor and outdoor seating here. The cafe is located in a little plaza with a parking lot but it can get full pretty quickly! The cafe is very popular and opens pretty early. read more

The staff is super friendly and welcoming!! They have amazing bagels- especially the red pepper feta bagel!! I also like the protein smoothie, my daughter also enjoys her fruit smoothie and muffin. Thanks guys!! read more

Incredible ORGANIC and local coffee! It's so hard to find a coffee shop that uses all organic beans! The staff is knowledgeable and friendly, the layout is fun and funky and the overall vibe is awesome! The baked goods are all so delicious and it's hard to pick just one. I only wish there was a similar spot in the mystic ct area and I didn't have to travel so far for a coffee.... although that could get dangerously expensive! So I'll count my blessings Cheers read more

This place is consistently excellent, and that goes for the product and the service. Sometimes there's a line, but it goes down very quickly because they have service down like a well oiled machine. Lines generally denote the place is likely the best, and this is no exception to that. read more

IT IS SO FREAKING CUTE IN HERE! There was ample, size inclusive seating. I loved that the seating areas were broken up, gives some privacy. I also LOVED the seating outside, it must be so nice in the summer and fall...when it isn't raining. The Cheech and chai was so good! It has matcha and raspberry added to it, EXQUISITE! I also liked how crispy the bagel was. I would definitely travel back to westerly just to come here. read more

Absolutely horrible. Ordered food online. Drove all the way there , waited only to be told they ran out of bananas and my order can't be made.

Cute little coffee shop with a antique shop. Attached service was great. Coffee was wonderful. They had kombucha dropped. I highly recommend

Have been SEARCHINGGG for a place in the Northeast that does pesto bagels, and this one was yummyyy. Their coffee again never misses and am glad I got an iced one this time. Will say their iced coffee is better than their hot. Also got to try their matcha, not so great. Very chunky... but iced coffee with good bagels and spread? This place is it. Also has a good amount of seating and has a store attached to it for little Knick knacks (-: read more

Good drinks, cute vibe, lots of pastry options. We like coming here on the way to the beach, it never disappoints. The service is quick but the lines can still be long, so just keep that in mind. Can get crowded. read more

Eclectic and visually pleasing, nice staff and quick service. Tempting baked goods and rich coffee.

Worth the line!! This place gives you central perk vibes. Many sitting areas for you to grab your coffee and sit and relax with friends or a nice time to read a book or the daily paper. Nice outdoor seating. Plenty of coffee drinks to choose from plus some healthy alternatives including protein shakes. Don't be discouraged by the length of the line when you enter. Plenty of staff working the counter and preparing your order. Goes by very quickly. As you get to the head of the line you pass the display of baked good and fresh bagels. Definitely try the donut with vanilla frosting and rainbow sprinkles. The best donut ever. So light and fluffy I can taste it now as I am writing about it. Egg sandwich on the fresh bagels are so tasty. read more

Just don't order anything with cocoa. They argued that they put it in there but obviously didn't given the taste and color. The rude little girl at the counter refused to remake it even after I said I would like her to. read more

Junk & Java - The "chocolate cocoa smoothie" not. I wish I could take my tip back. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Westerly, Rhode Island

Definitely a new favorite find in Westerly! My boyfriend has been going here forever, but I was delighted to discover Junk & Java recently.. where has this literally been all my life?! The shop is quirkily decorated with a cozy and inviting color palette of warm oranges and browns - it's actually the best spot to spend a fall morning or afternoon. Snag a seat on one of the couches or squishy chairs by the electric fireplace - you'll be glad you did! The menu features a dizzying array of coffees, shakes, tea drinks, and even a refreshing Cactus Cooler, made with fresh lime and prickly pear juice (sounds weird, but SO GOOD). If you're trying to have fun with your choice, I would highly recommend the Smokey Bear Latte, made with house-smoked maple syrup, but they also do a sensible rendition of a classic cappuccino and latte as well for the purists. Menu selections include stuffed breakfast sandwiches, a colorful cornucopia of donuts and muffins, and prepared items such as overnight oats and a surprisingly yummy yogurt parfait. Conveniently located just a mile outside of bustling downtown Westerly, the Junk & Java is definitely worth the visit to fuel up for your day of adventures! read more

Upbeat, sunny, friendly place. Great coffee, great atmosphere, pastries are a bit pricey. Really loved hanging out here. Lots of different mismatched furniture much of it very comfortable. read more

Not enough superlatives. The name of the place is so apropos. From the outside you are welcomed in by 2 pair of bright orange Adirondack chairs (my husband has a thing for Adirondack chairs!). Upon entering you are hit with a cacophony of sounds and sights and the beautiful aroma of Java. Though there was a long line that was no shortage of things to see and fill your mind up with while waiting. Both the people in line and the employees remained unruffled, I dare say this might likely be the friendliest town ever. Anyway, the coffee also is outstanding!! The back patio is delightful! read more

This local place is really amazing! Great coffee, fun ambiance and lots of people milling about! A real local gem for sure!

I love this place. Extremely friendly and patient staff. I ordered the Vegan Protein balls and a delicious cup of Mexican Java blend. This is one of my new favorite coffee blends. This location looks like a little hole-in-the-wall but truly a hidden gem. This place is eclectic and tastefully decorated. This place rocks! read more

Junk and Java has the best coffee in Rhode Island. On top of the great blend, they have delicious speciality flavors like cinnamon bun, chocolate chip cookie, cookies and creme, and more.

The coffee is great and the ambiance and space are comfortable. My only knock is that the pastries are just OK. I had a scone that was quite chewy. Did they microwave it? There are better places for food, but the drinks are top notch. read more

Covid-safety compliant with outdoor window service, both outdoor and indoor seating available. Drinks are still brought to the table and each sitting area outside is separated on a colorful rug. The extensive and expanded choice of java drinks and smoothies makes it easy to find a favorite. They've even added a Dr. Fau-Chai to the seasonal menu adding white chocolate and banana to a vanilla chai! Due to pandemic era suppliers, the gelato choices are down to one: vanilla. In lieu of my favorite flavorful affogato, I dove into a Wildflower Latte, lavender and honey in a classic latte, prepared beautifully. This place is our go-to whenever near the area. The seating is comfortable, cozy, and the coffee/tea/smoothie choices are so fine! read more

Stopped here on my travels and I'm so glad I did. The coffee milk latte was delicious and the outdoor, covid friendly winter seating was perfect for a short break with my pup. Have been back once since, and it will certainly be a new stopping point. read more

Very cute coffee shop! My friend took me here to grab breakfast and coffee. The parking lot was so full so park on the side street if you can't find parking in the plaza. I got the cardamom drink with oat milk and a toasted everything bagel with cream cheese. The cardamom latte was incredible! It was loaded with cardamom and it was strong! It was also caffeine free. The everything bagel was delicious, chewy and toasted perfectly. I loved the ambience of the cafe. It is very small but unique. You can get hot drinks (ie: teas, lattes, seasonal hot drinks) or cold drinks (ie: smoothies, protein shakes, iced coffee, iced teas, juices etc) and they are all served seasonally. The bakery also has a lot of tasty breakfast pastries and they serve breakfast sandwiches. The caffe is a little cramped but once you get a seat you'll be fine. Overall this place is really cute, people of all ages come here and enjoy a tasty drink if you come here! You won't be disappointed!! read more

Junk & Java - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Westerly, Rhode Island

Man do I wish we had such a great coffee shop where I live! We stopped here with a friend before a road trip back to the Midwest and were not disappointed. Even though the line on a Saturday was gruesomely long the wait was actually pretty short. Talk about efficiency! The drink variations are top notch. While I just had a plain oatmilk latte it still tasted divine. My daughter had some sort of churro frappe that had ice cream inside. Oh man it looked sooo good. The littles enjoyed yummy donuts and strawberry smoothies. 10/10 would recommend. read more

Stopped by recently and grabbed an iced coffee. It was absolutely delicious. Perfectly balanced and a great cup of coffee. The space is so cute and definitely on my list of places to stop by and work from during the winter months ahead. They have definitely thought about every detail here and it shows. Such a beautiful cafe. read more

Beautiful setting great selection of baked goods and coffee. Above all the service is amazing I always feel welcomed

If you're a local you probably know how awful service is here. I've stood at the counter waiting for someone to even say hello to me after 5-10 minutes in there with no one else in the shop. They have prioritized online orders over face to face customers multiple times. I have colleagues that have vented the same frustration over the last 2 years. The rudeness and expressions you get from the employees and owner is just not welcoming. And definitely don't wear other attire here that represents another coffee business or you will get side eyed right back out the door. read more

Junk & Java is one of my favorite spots for coffee and small breakfast bites. The cafe itself is pretty neat with eclectic furniture, friendly staff, and good music. For COVID safety they have online ordering available, heated huts outside on their patio if you choose to dine in, and social distancing markers around the coffee shop for waiting in line and drinking a coffee indoors. I've had their various espresso drinks (from americanos to specialty lattes like their Oreo latte) as well as their coffee, protein shakes, and health drinks and have enjoyed everything! They also have pretty good bagels with fun and exciting flavors like jalapeño cheddar or Buffalo bagels and fun cream cheese flavors like bacon horseradish (super delicious), veggie, and cinnamon sugar. I have yet to try their muffins, pastries, desserts, and milk shakes, but my friends rave about them all the time. I always look forward to going to Junk n Java and trying more of their menu and I recommend this place to anyone in the area! read more

I loved going to Junk & Java! The inside experience was a perfect calm, cozy and hipster feel! It was very clean while also having a lot of fun seating options and tables! The staff was very attentive and I ordered one drink through the mobile order service on the website and then ordered the protein ball in store! I experienced both ways of ordering and I was pleased with both! Junk and Java seems to have a great system going and I will definitely be going back and I recommend this coffee shop 100 times! Go there, you won't regret it! Definite 5 star coffee shop! read more
