Coffee was good, but the atmosphere inside was not. Thankfully the barista taking orders was really sweet, but I heard 1 of the other girls, the shorter one with dark hair talking about me behind the bar to one of the other workers and I wasn't a fan of that.

Went last week for the first time, and it was a cute and small area to do homework in. I got a vanilla iced latte and it was good, but the syrup was very sugary (in my opinion) which threw off the taste a little bit. But it was still a decent drink and good spot to go to!!

For years I’ve come to Javatinis for a matcha latte but no more. It used to be delicious but the matcha has changed and it’s not worth paying for. Please bring back your old matcha. We can taste the difference. I want to keep coming.

The baristas have attitude and they aren't afraid to show it. My daughter went in for an iced matcha latte and the brown haired barista made a hot one. My daughter let her know she ordered iced. She looked at my daughter, looked at her other barista and then she murmured under her breath, "well you didn't even specify that." I paid $6 for a cup of milk and a dash of matcha. It was disgusting and we will not be coming back.

This place is such a cozy lil shop located amongst a strip of other small businesses and only a walk to the beach!! And so so so many flavor options. I asked the cashier for her recommendation and went with the graham latte which was great. The staff were friendly and it was a great spot to catch up with my friend. You can grab a coffee and take a walk around the surrounding small businesses. I would definitely come back next time I'm in the area (:

Such a cute and cozy coffee shop by the beach. The staff was genuinely kind and transmitting welcoming vibes. They had great recommendations and answered all my questions. Love the unique flavor pairings according to the season. The latte itself was very good and smooth with the right amount of strawberry and white chocolate. Certainly will be coming back and recommend it for a great drink.

I'm always pleasantly surprised by the wholesomeness of the Seal Beach business community and Javatinis is no exception. This storefront sits in downtown and specializes in coffee, smoothies, baked goods, and light bites. The cafe is on the smaller side with just a few tables for those who prefer to sip their caffeine in person. I stopped by for a grab-and-go situation and ordered their matcha frap and the egg and cheese breakfast sandwich. The breakfast sandwich was the perfect size and gave me just enough energy to get the day started. A matcha frap might not have been the best move on a rainy afternoon, but I loved the taste and sweetness level regardless. I also adore how community-forward this coffee shop is. Visitors can explore their walls filled with photos of the Javatinis team dating back to 2013, business cards connecting you to local trades, and posters for upcoming events. You truly feel like you're in a small town exploring Seal Beach and I love that Javatinis leans into this identity.
I prefer this coffee shop in the area over the other. I am a sucker for seasonal lattes and they have creative flavors. I last had a maple leaf cookie latte, less sweet of course. They have a rewards program with deals going to your email. Often times you have to spend a minimum of $10. Once in awhile it's $1 or $2 off with no minimum. With tight expiration dates, I don't get a chance to use it. They have a location in Lakewood but I am more likely to be in the vicinity of Seal Beach since I love walking Main St and the pier. They do have a bathroom so I'm not sure why a previous reviewer said otherwise.

Chai is ok

Absolutely delicious coffee. But the red eye is just coffee not espresso so order accordingly.

This place is a Seal Beach staple. My wife and I are frequently here after dinner for a cup of coffee or tea. The staff is always friendly and helpful, our drinks are always correct and taste as they should. I highly recommend this coffee house, you won't be disappointed.

The cashier was so nice and friendly. You can tell locals come here. Very cozy feel. I ordered the s'mores mocha and it's SO GOOD. My husband got the cold brew and he likes it too! Got a blueberry bagel but kinda regretting not getting the garlic one.. oh man that one was calling my name. Next time! Would definitely come back here again. I want to try all the fun flavors!!
