Java Junction

Awesome location but terrible, terrible coffee. Light roast was so bad I have to scrape it off of my teeth, the chai latte was undrinkable and the cappuccino was too hot, and gross. Such a shame a coffee person doesn’t run this place… All the ingredients for an incredible café yet the actual business lets it down. Been several times and never had a decent cup of anything. Guess I will have to have a margarita instead at the Polomar

We ordered a frozen mocha and regular coffee. The frozen Mocha had a weird bad taste to it so much so that we had to throw it away. The regular coffee was lukewarm. This place doesn’t know how to make coffee. Best avoided!

Location is amazing! I’ve only been here once and my initial impression was good. My coffee was pretty average and the breakfast sandwich on a bagel was OK. Nothing to write home about but serves the purpose with a spectacular view. Major turn off: a barista with a very booming voice — so loud it was hard to concentrate. I also got more details than I needed about her Saturday shenanigans. I wouldn’t recommend but I wouldn’t rule this place out either.

The location of Java Junction is perfect! Right on the beach and next to some other eateries. This summer I went here every week with people I worked with at a camp. It is walking distance from Twin Lakes Beach, which is really nice when you need an afternoon pick-​me-​up.
The staff here is overall friendly and accommodating, but usually they are in a rush due to the long lines this place draws. One of the baristas though helped me create a cherry iced tea. It wasn’t as good as we both had hoped, but it was kind of him to help me figure out what I wanted in my drink.
The drinks here are average. Nothing special, but nothing bad either. I stick to the basics here: lattes, iced coffees, ect.
I heavily advice AGAINST their Mexican Mocha (really any of their Mexican drinks –it’s pure spices) and Dirty Chai Mocha. Both drinks are pretty disgusting, as in no one on my staff would drink more than two sips.
So glad a coffee place opened here again! I do miss the gelato The Kind Grind served though…

Great coffee and bagels, friendly service, and you cannot beat the view of the ocean, jetties, lighthouse, and harbor. So glad another café opened in place of the recently closed Kind Grind!!! Plus you can have dogs on leash on the back patio. I’ll be back.
