JAVA-GOURMET Company Store, Black Cat Bistro, Keuka Lake Coffee Roasters, and Seneca Salt Company

I have been waiting 3 years to get to this place due to timing of when they were open matching with our vacation in Penn Yan-they did not disappoint!
My husband and I learned so much about coffee and really enjoyed our lunch and the delicious drinks they had to offer.
Susan and Brian were delightful and their knowledge was very enlightening and educational. We look forward to going back next year and also joined their coffee club :)

Second time in & we absolutely love this bistro!! Warm, welcoming, and the food is delish!!

The coffee was burnt and bitter.

We went for brunch on a Sunday and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. I got the Thomas bacon and egg open faced muffin and it was absolutely delicious. The coffee was also amazing, so much so I purchased some at the gift shop to take home. Such a good environment with great service and food! We will definitely be back!!

One of my favorite places to go when I'm in the area visiting family; we often schedule our trips to make sure we can visit at least once. The food is so good every time, with local, thoughtfully picked out ingredients. Always a pleasure ❤️

Party of 8 of us went in on Sunday of memorial day weekend for coffee to-go and were immediately made to feel unwelcome. The first thing the woman working/I assumed owner said to us was "I'm only here because people your age don't want to work on holidays." It wasn't even Memorial Day mind you, it was the day before. Then she begrudgingly started taking and making our orders, loudly mentioning everytime she was running out of materials: ice, coffee, and cups. "Oh im gonna have to make more now" "oh I'm going to have to go upstairs to get more ice." And? Isn't that why we're both here?

She literally said "I miss the days when no one knew about us, now you people keep coming from everywhere." Oh, did I mention there were only 2 other people in the shop at the time? It was completely empty. The cold brew is mediocre, the chai is "the worst" my friend has ever had, it was one of the most awkward, rude service experiences I've had in my life. We were really excited to come here and have a good time, even chat with the employees, but she guaranteed that that was impossible for us. She seemed extremely entitled, and indignant to even be there, so why not just close the place?

Also, the prominently-displayed black cat stuffed animal with a little sign that says #blackcatsmatter is just tacky and gross.

Food and atmosphere were fine, but it was was difficult to enjoy after being treated very rudely by the owner upon arriving simply because I was unaware the group I was with had already asked for an additional chair.

Such a fantastic place! Absolutely beautiful on the inside and incredibly clean. The food was spectacular, and the coffee heavenly. We love the farm-to-table emphasis, and of course the cat theme! Cannot recommend enough.

Drove a half hour out of our way for breakfast only to find they were closed although their website said they were open

This is a gem. Coffee is incredible. The atmosphere is relaxing both inside seating and outside seating. The eggs on Portuguese rolls are one of the greatest meals I’ve ever eaten. I got the Cape Cod. It involved crab meat and it made my day. They also recommended a winery (living root winery) and it was one of the best on our trip to the Finger Lakes. Stop by for a leisurely breakfast and some coffee. You will not regret it.
