Food is good, decent size meals. Coffee ☕️ is good but the ice blended mocha is not that good, something is missing, not creamy nor sweet, kinda tasteless. Friendly baristas and great atmosphere.

This is a nice place to go for breakfast sandwiches and coffee. I love their everything bagel breakfast sandwiches, preferably with sausage and pepperjack cheese. Also, I really love the fact that they are servicing the Enloe heroes and they are doing it with smiles on their faces and with total care.
I have gone here many times. Only thing I would recommend is to cut some deal with Enloe to provide more parking for the coffee shop. The spaces fill up quickly and there is no place close to the shop to park, sometimes finding a space nearby on the street can be a bit of a hassle. I would just recommend doing this and with the help you provide to Enloe, for their staff and patients, I think they'd help out.
Otherwise, this is a great location and keep it up!

Owner Nicole and all her staff are superlative with service! And all their food from breakfast-lunch-sweets and of course drink/coffee are superb! Best of all their prices are very reasonable in this insanely high priced economy.

If I could give 0 stars I would unfortunately every time I come into this building, my arms full of products trying to help them out and I'm always watched as I struggle getting through the door with huge, heavy boxes.I've just never been so disgusted in my life at disrespect.I will NEVER be able to just sit back and watch somebody carrying something extremely heavy that i bought and just sit back and watch them try to open up a door, while things are falling. I could never imagine doing that as a person.But yet every time I walk into this building, that's what I am greeted with. People who just stare as I am carrying boxes that are extremely heavy, hurting my back, and I can't even get one employee there to say can I hold open the door for you? Nothing! Then the attitudes that I get from these people are appalling.I'm sorry yes I might be working but I still deserve some respect while I do it. I never thought in my wildest dreams that i would have to come in and put a review underneath their page because of how their treating employees that are trying to bring in their products, so they can run their business. And again I wouldn't even be putting up a review if it was just a one time thing. But this is an every time I come into this building issue and it is the last time that I will be coming into this building. I honestly don't know what happened to the day that employees treated people with respect that came into their work everywhere I go it seems like employees are just going to treat people however they see fit and get upset with you if you say some about it.

Did not go there went next door
Went in today for my first time and the older woman or owner wasn’t very friendly. She just stared at me with a blank upset face even after I smiled. Maybe she was having a bad day, but I won’t be returning here as I did not feel like it was a coffee shop that makes you feel welcome.
Careful with what coffee you order, the white mocha tasted like all sweet no coffee. Not bad beyond

This Cal Java never has me leaving disappointed! Not only is their food amazing, but they always make my coffee order spot on! Their staff is super friendly and welcoming, and makes you feel comfortable taking the time you need to choose what you'd like to order.It doesn't get any better than this coffee shop!
Lattes are top notch and good for a quick pick-me-up. However; the massive cookies they have are a massive letdown, they are big, yes, but they taste like Dawn Dishwashing Soap. I go there many times but I had the cookies (PB and chocoChip) a month ago and today to see if it was just a fluke. But nope, the cookies taste like soap.
