Java Jo’z Margaritas & More

For the thirst, price, and convenience I give this place 5 stars. I like my drinks strong cause I’m a secret alcoholic and they did exactly that. Would recommend the syringe jello shots and mango frozen margaritas. I’m typing this review up at work and it’s making me thirsty at 9am LOL

The drinks here are fruity and sweet. I had a strawberry daiquiri and had a little buzz off the smaller size.

I couldn’t stop thinking I should have just went to spec’s… But nevertheless I am all about exploring… So for the record been there and I don’t have to go back… If you like slushies and don’t have a preference in alcohol I would say definitely try… Love the concept reminds me of my undergraduate days at USL but far from the daiquiri shops throughout Louisiana…

Fast, friendly service and delicious daiquiris and margaritas … what’s not to love?!?

Amazing place, great prices, and friendly service. Not only that but the service is fast and it tastes great!
The only thing I dislike is that they are closed on a Monday, and not only can’t I enjoy a Bahama Mama during Monday night football, but also I don’t get to see the beautiful and awesome women whose name starts with «B». Go there and find out for yourself! Also, don’t forget to tip!

A lil high on price but worth it! Trust me and get there! Asap! Triple shots Tuesday.

This was my first time coming here, drinks are delicious with a good amount of alcohol in it. I love the ease of the drive-​thru, just get it and go!

I remember Java Jo’z as being just a coffee stop, several years ago — They were amazing. Better than Starbucks; similar prices but it was always a better tasting experience and quicker transaction.
Fast forward to today, I now live in Katy and was surprised to learn that they now are mainly a drive-​thru margarita stop. Disappointed at first, until I visited.
I ordered a regular plain-​Jane marg and it was pretty tasty and they didn’t skimp on the alcohol. The only disappointment I have today is that the coffee selection isn’t the same as it used to be.

I sooooo wish I had known about this place sooner, the sad reality is I will be moving soon and this place won’t be near me at all. I have tried both the margaritas and daiquiri and they have always tasted great. They don’t skimp on the alcohol which is always a good thing.
They can even customize the flavor of drink you want, my flavors of choice is their strawberry mango daiquiri. If only they had a ½ off day or an upsize your drink day this place would be perfect.

Thanks Unilocal for helping me find this wonderful place. I should’ve discovered this place a lot sooner because I never knew how good it was until now. Right off the bat I could tell it was a popular place to go as I saw a few cars line up at opening time (2 pm).
Once I got my hands on a large strawberry margarita, it was heaven in a cup… right from the first sip! I must warn you that the margaritas are strong, yet delicious.
This will now be my go-​to place for when I want a quick margarita fix.

Used to be mainly coffee but that flew out the window.
Prices are completely ridiculous for the coffee they do have ($ 6 for a small latte, seriously?!).
Also, ordered a mango smoothie — way too sweet. Luckily we ordered a kid size (but also over priced).
Used to love this place and sad to see it has completely changed.

This is my go to place for margaritas or daiquiris. It’s a drive up place and they fix them right. One of the few places in Houston where you can buy and drive off. it reminds me of my hometown.(New Orleans). I recommend you to drive buy.

Finally an adult drive thru equivalent of a snow cone! :)
When I first heard about a drive thru margarita shack I figured it was too good to be true. So my sister and I got in the car and went to check it out. We were really surprised at all the combinations available. Since we couldn’t make up our mind we decided to get 5 different smalls. They were DELICIOUS!!!
Original margarita (frozen) — shockingly one of the best margaritas I’ve ever had!
Berry Bomb — Delicious!
Code 5 — not bad, but I wouldn’t get it again.
Sour Melon — another one that was just ok
Peach daiquiri — I love anything peach flavored but this wasn’t as good as I’d hoped.
It seems like the key is finding the flavors that work for you. Seriously, check it out if you like frozen adult beverages. It’s worth the drive!!!

This is NOT the place to go to for a cup of coffee. They have less than 5 options. Maybe they were once a great coffee place but based on the menu it’s more for margaritas and frozen drinks. Greatly disappointed.

What coffee place runs out of coffee?!? And be rude about it? He says he ran out of all hot drinks as he drinks something hot… coffee fail, granted its coffee and more. He should just remove coffee from the name.

Me and and husband love going to JAva JO’z! They have great drinks at amazing prices! And all of the employees are always friendly! :)

Although I’ve been happily using Unilocal to find some of the best spots over the last few years, I’ve never been let down by Unilocal,at least not until today. After recently moving to Katy TX, I was enthusiastic about finding Java Jo’s, especially with the overwhelming positive reviews. In any other situation, this would have been a sure win.
Let me preface my first review by saying that I signed up for a Unilocal account specifically for this purpose. In my fifteen years of being in this great country, I have never had such a foul customer service experience, and I have done my share of domestic and international travel.
The following is a word by word transcript of my interaction with the drive-​thru clerk at Java Jo’s today at around 7:30PM CST, and I will leave it to better people than myself to make up their own minds on the experience:
I pull up to the window, which opens up a minute after. Window clerk removes some jello samples so I can have an unobstructed view of the menu.
Clerk upon seeing that I was a first timer: I will give you a minute to decide.
*shuts the window*
*2 long minutes go by before the clerk shows up at window again*
Clerk: Decide on anything?
Me: I was wondering how much a small iced latte would cost. Can you please tell me?
*To my credit, there were several sizes of glasses on display, but coffee prices were shown for Med and Large*
Clerk, in the most condescending tone imaginable: Do you understand the concept of a drive-​thru display menu?
Me: Are you trying to be rude? There is no price for the small size, which is why I’m asking.
Clerk: No price for the small?
*Leans over and looks at the menu himself*
Clerk: Then that is because we don’t have a small. There is a Starbucks nearby and they have small sizes. Why don’t you go there?
*Shuts the window. End of Transaction*
*I drive away wondering what just happened, and it takes me 5 minutes to calm down and come to terms with my interpretation of the situation — I had my first racist experience in Houston*
To the owners of Java Jo’s, I sincerely hope that this level of customer service does not represent what you stand for as a company. Utterly Disappointed. Zero Stars.

Quick and convenient for coffee but ive had better.
They’re more known for their booze to go!

On Mason Road, there is a little unassuming coffee shack that you can pull up to and order the beverage of your dreams. I am sure I’m not one of the majority, but I could drink pumpkin flavored anything year round. So, if I’m having a craving for a pumpkin latte in July, I will drive from Tomball to Katy to get it. (Yes, I’m that dedicated to my addiction!).
I don’t know how they do it, but they sure cram a ton of flavors into a tiny little location!
I’ve never had a smoothie here, but I have had several different flavors of coffee, both hot and blended. They tolerate my non-​fat, sugar free, half caf, de-​caf neuroses as well… Wahoo!!!
They also take credit cards, which is great for me since I loathe carrying cash.

Don’t let the appearance of this small drive-​thru shack deceive you. Finding this place was like discovering gold! The selection is huge and offers a little something for the contemporary and the quirky alike.
I tried a Java Jo’z vanilla latte a few years back and have been hooked ever since. The selection is huge and they have some seasonal stuff, so you have some new and fresh stuff all the time.
The mochas are awesome. The frappes are awesome. The caramel macchiatos are awesome. The frozen blended hot chocolate is awesome. The peanut butter and banana crème blend is awesome.
They serve stuff for the little ones too like shaved ice and ice cream :)
Forget Starbucks!!! This place is cheaper and better in every way! I’ve realized through this little shack that what Starbucks has done to coffee should be considered an abomination.
