Coffee barista wasn't very welcoming or attentive to her customers. Coffee was good. Blueberry muffin was okay, no blueberries inside the muffin...only on the top. read more

Pacific Java Cafe is my neighborhood cafe (I literally live across the street) so it's convenient and a great quick stop. The coffee and the tea are always just right. The pastries and snacks are good too. However, the cookies aren't very good which is a disappointment to someone who sometimes needs a cookie fix. The decor is funky and the vibe is perfect before a beach stroll. Everyone that works there is friendly. Love this place!! Now all it needs is wifi!!! I would be there all the time if they had wifi. read more

Best mocha ever! Girlfriend said her cappuccino was amazing. New owners are definitely doing things right. Can't wait to come back. If you are in the area, definitely stop by. It is a block from the water where you can sip coffee and watch the Wales swim by. read more

I went exploring and found this place. This place has really good coffee among the great customer service. I felt right at home. This is my vacation spot for the weekend. I suggest this place to anyone who is in the area. Also this is my first review. read more

Very cute store, funny barista and cheapest coffee in the Bay Area. (The 2 dollar cookie is exactly the same as the $3.75 one in the tearoom next door) It's just nice to walk around the neighborhood. read more

The staff is friendly and HARD working! Great coffee and chai and they have WiFi. Love the ambiance, very relaxing....just sit down a little slower on the cushioned bench (you'll find out why) If you stay in the area, recommend it for your morning coffee and pastry, prices are very reasonable. They take credit cards now read more

So cozy, plenty of selections and the service is awesome. Try it, you will not regret it.

The service dropped my rating completely. I want to start off with this place is super cute and has a lot of potential to give it 5 stars but the service was awful. My boyfriend and I went here and the lady was either having a bad day, felt over whelmed or was forced to work during the pandemic. My boyfriend asked the lady if the drink he was thinking about ordering can be iced and she rolled her eyes and said "yes". Then the drinks were finally finished and she put them on the counter and then grabbed the money. I asked her which one was the toffee drink and she said "either or" then rolled her eyes again. First, Im not a fan of cinnamon in my drinks and my boyfriend ordered one with cinnamon in it. What if I was allergic? Yea I would probably say something to begin with but when I was a barista I payed attention to drink orders. It's kind of inconsiderate and dangerous when you don't. Then after she said "either or" she placed the unwrapped straws on the countertop where the money is being placed and people are touching... during a pandemic... I get having a bad day, but I believe that if you feel overwhelmed you should just communicate to your customers. Maybe say you'll be right with them, or thank you for waiting, or I'm sorry I'm a little behind. People usually understand but she was completely rude. Drinks were good though, a little sweet so if there is a next time I might ask for another shot of espresso. read more

Great Specially Coffee drinks. Kiana's Fantasy is what I got and it was delicious. Super Cool and Friendly Staff. Good Vibes. Can't wait to hangout at this joint. Cash ONLY and no WiFi but that didn't matter to me but giving everyone a heads up. read more

Pacific Java Cafe - Great Local Coffee Shop in Pacifica with Friendly staff and Delicious Specialty Coffee Drinks. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Pacifica, California

We came here for tea and coffee on a beautiful Sunday morning. It's sun-lit and cozy, with locals and families filtering in and out. The blueberry muffin we had was delicious and the prices are unbelievably reasonable. We will definitely come back for future lazy Sundays! read more

I found my new favorite cafe. The vibe is so cozy and cute. It's quiet but comforting! The barista was such a sweetheart, I didn't get her name though. Great location, too. read more

Inexpensive drinks, friendly service, and board games for customers? Yes please! I came in on a rainy day, and the warm environment was instantly welcoming and comforting. There was only one person working when we came in, but he was super friendly and made our drinks quickly. The zebra mocha was really good! I am definitely coming in again the next time I'm near Pacifica! read more

Great cappuccino! Very sunny and clean with lots of character. Hoping to come back out next visit from SF.

What a find! Great coffee, friendly service. It's just so hidden away, I keep missing it. Support local coffee shops!! read more

Great little cafe with one of the largest selection of brews I've seen. It's number one on my list, also because of the tranquil location.

The decaf espresso is *fantastic*. Do you know how hard it is to pull a good decaf espresso? Hint: really hard. The only downside is that the cappuccino is the hyperfoamy meringue style, so you probably want a latte. Fabulous coffee, though. Also cheap. read more

I absolutely love this coffee shop! It's a super great place to get a basic coffee (they always have a few options of the pour-it-yourself variety), or a specialty drink with flavors. Personally, I love the coconut cream as an iced coffee. I would bring in my reusable Starbucks cup and they never gave me a hard time about it. Also, I'm under the impression the treats they have are homemade. Whether they are or not, they're fantastic and reasonably priced :) The only thing that would make this place 5star would be wifi. read more

Amazing little coffee house close to the beach great drinks friendly staff and much more welcoming vibe then most big chain coffee

The lady at the register was rude. I gave my order and apparently she didn't hear me and she said "what?!" in an annoyed tone and face. Then i asked how big the sizes were and she answered annoyingly again. Definitely not coming back to this mediocre janky cafe, and sticking to Cafe Pacifica's friendly service. GIRL BYE. read more

Great local coffee shop. Cool welcoming building with friendly staff. Minutes away from the beach with ample parking across the street

Stayed at a hotel around the corner while on a quick trip to the area, decided to stop by after some local sightseeing and grab some afternoon lattes before returning to our room for the day. Service was great - one young man working at the counter took our order and started making our drinks immediately. He was very friendly and personable. We had to wait, or course, for four drinks to be made by one person, but it was worth it! A couple people walked in while we were waiting and had to wait for their orders to be taken until our drinks were done, but they all seemed too glad to be in from the cold to complain. Besides, the atmosphere is cozy - playing cards and board games to pass time, walls of vintage signs, and comfy lounge space upstairs. Last, but certainly not least, the coffee is good! Usual suspects of Torani syrups and Ghirardelli powders for flavors, but the espresso was made well and milk was steamed properly, so the drinks tasted better than most chain places where you get burnt coffee. Worth the couple blocks' walk, definitely. Bottom line: if you find yourself in the area - or just passing through headed elsewhere - make your coffee stop here! It's one of the few non-chain coffee places until you hit Half Moon Bay, and it's yummy. Try the Mexican mocha! read more

I love this coffee spot. Every time I come here to sit by the beach I always get a coffee. The employees are so knowledgeable and friendly. read more

I want to like this place but every time I have been it takes 30 plus minutes for a cup of coffee! The baristas are nice but there just isn't enough working, especially on the weekends. This is no fault of the employees but the owner. There should be at least 2 employees working weekend mornings to ensure the customers get timely service and the employees aren't crazed and overwhelmed. That is no way to treat an employee to put them in that situation. There is potential if it were being run right. read more

Very nice staff. Maria, Angela, Nate, Evette, and Emily are all wonderful Cash only. Relaxing place to read or visit with friends read more

I stayed at a near by hotel while on vacation and I was desperate for some good coffee (I work at a coffee shop back home so hotel coffee doesn't cut it). We found this little local shop and the coffee is great! I tried an minty Irish cream americano and it was so good I came back every morning I was in California and had it again. I would 100% recommend this shop for anyone just looking for some good local coffee/espresso. read more

So we thought we'd stop in this morning and enjoy a cup of coffee after our early morning walk. Unfortunately the service at this place is horrible! Get a new employee! She's ruining your business!! read more

Walking into this establishment, it doesn't hit you immediately--it's a little bit random and funky, with the collection of decor they do have. But not in a bad way, mind you. Rather cute and cozy, in some ways. Cristîon B. and I were hanging out for the day, and chose to start with some coffee and a scone. We each had a great drink, a mexican mocha. Probably one of the best interpretations of the drink, flavors just spreading from the first taste, changing much like a rainbow might while on a drive. My only wish was that they take credit card. Oh well, you can't get everything. But I know where I can get one great mexican mocha. read more

A very special cafe in Pacifica. They have loose leaf teas. I love the monks prayer. I also love their flavored coffee. This cafe reminds me of San Francisco coffee houses before the glitz and glam. A treasure in Pacifica. read more

Great location, very nice staff, professional, clean and cozy. Delicious food and the price is right (and what coffee should be).

I found this little place on my first day. I needed coffee. Be warned, it's cash only, but they have an ATM and the fee was reasonable at 2.50. (Shame on me arriving in town without cash, right?) Anyhow, I was able to get almond milk latte w/ a small amount of hazelnut syrup for a reasonable price and they had homemade cookies and scones, even vegan!!! Such a delight. I really liked this place, it was quaint, beachy, and the girls working at the counter were super sweet! read more

This is a sleepy little costal city and all we wanted was some good coffee (hotel coffee was yuck). We were recommended to Pacific Java. Fortunately we were carrying cash. The coffee was delicious and so were the pastries. read more

Way better than Starbucks by a long shot. They've got great breads but sadly no sandwiches. They baristas, mainly Steven, are great. There's no wifi, but it's a great place to sit and chit chat for a while. They've got the Perfect Pour here, in this P-town Café. read more

Good coffee, nothing fancy. I got a cappuccino with two shots and it was done really well. They had a lot of pastries and such that I didn't try but looked good. Got the job done! read more

Service here is a mixed bag. It's always a little dark here. The pastry and baked goods are inconsistent in quality ranging from just OK to good. read more

Wonderful and low key, the antithesis to Starbucks nonsense and good (not great) coffee. A pity that here too the anti gluten brigade have caught foothold...oh well. 3 stars for the coffee, 5 for the place. read more

The decor is very nautical and old-timey, which I love (if you've ready any of my previous reviews, you know I love old school). It's right by Rockaway Beach, so definitely check it out after a brisk walk or after having a period of relaxation on the sand. It wasn't crowded at all when I went. In fact, my dad and I were the only customers at the time. There is a good amount of seating, including a cute little sitting area with couches and tables upstairs. And YES, there is outside seating as well for those warmer days. Yay! Bring your doggies :) I ordered a zebra mocha, which was delicious. I'm not a big coffee person, and when I do drink it, I HATE when it's bitter. The zebra mocha was perfect. Definitely get that. I also ordered the veggie quiche, which contains mushrooms, red peppers, ricotta and cheddar cheese, leeks, and zucchini. Yeah, I hate zucchini, but I gave the quiche a chance anyway. It was good, but it was HOT. I burned the roof of my mouth when I took my first bite, and I hate to wait at least fifteen minutes to eat more. Finally, I ordered the poppyseed cake slice (I think that's what it was.) It was alright, but it was very sweet. Don't get me wrong, I love sweets, but I'll probably go for something else the next time I go there. Overall, great atmosphere, great coffee, and the lady that worked when I was there was super friendly. Four stars! read more

The coffee is good and strong. The pastries are OK. The atmosphere is quiet and serene. A great place to read a chapter while enjoying the warmth of your coffee. read more

Very cute and cheap I was surprisingly amazed at the cheap prices considering that most mom and pop coffee shops are on the higher cost end but nope. I loved my coffee the cute girl behind the counter was nice and they had many different kinds of flavored coffee! love it read more

I've been here about a handful of times and every time I have been unsatisfied with my drink. One of the baristas is very rude and unwelcoming. If you order ice coffee they give it to you black, I thought maybe they had a signature ice coffee but she cut me off when I tried to ask her and didn't quite answer my question. The drinks I've had have been terrible. I saw a review where someone said they have good chai so I figured I would try it, didn't taste like chai at all... it was milk with a slight slight taste of something else, but not chai. It is pretty expensive and you might as well just go to Starbucks for the price you pay. read more

Absolutely LOVE this place!!! I grew up in Pacifica, and we stop at this coffee shop every time I come home to visit my family. This place reminds me of all the great things about this little town along the coast; friendly, laid back, peaceful. I get my favorite coffee drink, take it to the beach and sit on the rocks while I sip the wonderful flavor and drink in the sea (am I setting the scene?) before heading up Fassler to my parents house. Or if we have my 95 yr old grandmother with us, she loves to pick out a tasty cake, (they have a good variety) sip coffee in the ambiance of a quaint little shop with no rush or frenzied energies. Yes, there is no Wi Fi, but you can take your laptop down the road to the ever generic Starbucks, which leaves the seats for those who enjoy conversation, coffee, and what ever flavor of the day music they are playing. Cash makes everything simple, no fraud, no bad checks, never have to worry about someone hacking their database, no complications, just enjoy the coffee read more
