Such a great place food is excellent and the coffee is the best in town!

This place is great! Their frozen white chocolate mocha is my favorite coffee drink because they use an ice cream base! The ambience of the cafe is nice and a great place to meet up with old friends or family!

Food is delish. Drinks are tasty. Staff is not always friendly.

Java Creek is a great coffee shop with nice booth seating and a relaxing dining area with a fireplace. Only downside is the have reduced hours during the summer.

I had given Java Creek five stars in the past. I have to say it's slowly gone downhill since the management change a while back. The manager comes off as unfriendly and the staff? Not close to the quality of staff that once worked there. Some of them are downright weird. On one of my last visits three women were standing around discussing (loudly) their "cycles". Not something I needed to know about.

Good variety of drinks and pastries. The seating by the fireplace was very welcoming.

If I could give this place a zero star I would. I used to go here all the time before it switched owners a few years back. Was great when Lee owned it. Polite, hard working staff, clean, great food and coffee. Now with new management every good thing about the place is bad. I went there to work on my dissertation because I needed a change of scenery and it was convenient. The service was very rude, the food was just ok, coffee was terrible and they ended up closing early without giving an explanation the staff just asked us to 'finish up and leave, thank-you'. Will never go back.

I have been going to Java Creek for years now but my last visit was disappointing. I ordered a Californian with no tomato and the sandwhich I recieved had tomato and was on the wrong bread with no spread. Also, the cookie that I choose as my side was not the cookie that usually came with it. Lastly, I ordered a berry breeze smoothie and it was like they forgot to add berries because it tasted like watered down milk. I don't understand what was going on because it was 3pm on Thursday and the place was dead.

Great place for lunch or if you just want a sandwich and soup.

A great place to study or catch up on office work during the day, and a destination for local music on the weekends. The coffee is good, the desserts are ridiculous. Service can be a little slow during peak hours, so be prepared to wait a few minutes.

Staff is friendly, the environment is warm and kept clean. I have not purchased food here even though the menu looks good, and the Baristas really know their beverages!

I've been going to Java Creek for over a decade. It's the perfect place to have a coffee date or business meeting and we absolutely LOVE the bruschetta chicken panini!!! Doesn't matter if it's breakfast lunch or dinner, it always hits the spot!

It's a good place to meet up with people. The tea is okay, but I have never gotten a clean cup on the first try. I always get handed a cup with coffee grounds in it. know its a coffee house, but I really seems like they store the cups under the grinder, at least that's what I hope is happening. I always have to ask for a different cup. I have even gotten a cup with lip stick on it. I like that they offer the option of tea bags or a steeper.

Good food. Unfortunately sometimes not the most consistent. If you are doing to go make sure your food is prepared as ordered and with the correct items. (Ordered a club but came with out bacon)

The chicken noodle soup. It's simply amazing. I have a ranked list of the best places to get chicken noodle soup, and Java Creek Cafe has been #1 ever since I went there. I simply cannot impress upon you enough how good the chicken noodle soup is. I wish I could rate this place 6 stars, no, 7. It has an extremely cozy atmosphere, with comfortable chairs, a fireplace, board games, modern art, and more. The workers are friendly and all the food is good. A fantastic place to meet new people, study, or simply relax in the ambience.
