This is one of the cutest coffee shops I’ve been to! They offer a great variety of drinks, and you can really tell the coffee is high quality.

The food options are a bit limited, especially if you have dietary restrictions. I didn’t get any food during my visit, but it seems like a good spot for a quick grab-and-go.

One thing I’d highly recommend is that the staff use gloves and practice better hygiene when handling food. Even though many of the items appear premade or packaged, it would still be nice to see the staff washing their hands and wearing gloves when heating or serving them.

I’ve noticed staff members handle transactions, touch their hair, or scroll on their phones, and then go right back to preparing food and drinks without washing. It’s an easy fix, but it makes a big difference in perception and safety.

If the staff followed more consistent hygiene practices, I would absolutely give this place five stars, even with the limited food selection.

Very easy 5 stars for me! The staff were friendly and efficient, the cafe was clean, and there was plenty of seating. The iced chai latte was very delicious, and I would recommend it! They have a nice selection of muffins. The banana nut one was good! Great ambiance overall! 🥰

I found myself in Fountain County a few weeks ago exploring two of their Carnegie Libraries, and needed a jolt of caffeine to keep me moving, so I visited Juli's Java and I'm glad I did. Their space is beautiful, with high ceilings, rich wood floors and a welcoming vibe all around. They seem to have a wide variety of choices, and some pastries, but I went with a straightforward iced coffee, which was a perfect way to take the edge off the hot and humid day. The service was quite nice and this does seem like the kind of place that would a nice cornerstone of the community. I do have a soft spot for local businesses, especially those right on the town square.

The best coffee place around!!! Prices are fair and the snacks are off the chart good! I am a mocha lover and the hot and cold mocha are amazing, better than McDonald's and Starbucks!!!! Honestly, I choose Julie's Java anytime I want coffee!

I get coffee here nearly every day. It's great coffee, fresh pastries, local dairy & the largest selection of Holly's Scent- Sations (IYKYK). Local, friendly baristas - everyone knows everyone, and you'll feel at home, too. Great shops next door - come and hang out with us!

I only had coffee so I can't rate the place on food. But walking in to the shop reminds me of walking into my great grandfather's drugstore when I was a kid. It's so warm and welcoming inside. I just feel like I could sit down and stay there all day. Everyone I met was extremely friendly. The staff and all the other customers. It just feels like a great place to hang out and enjoy some great coffee. I saw some tasty treats in the cabinet but I chose to decline those. There are lots of local crafts available for sale at this shop as well. I totally love it!
