Java House (Cedarburg)

I’ve really been putting off writing a review, hoping that things would get better. I’ve been coming the Java house regularly for two years because I want to support local business, the people are always friendly and I like the atmosphere, however, the constant inconsistency of the taste of my drink is very frustrating. I usually order a brown sugar milk tea with Boba. The Boba is often very hard and stuck together. I found the way they make the milk tea to be weak for my taste so I ask for extra pumps of flavor which I’m happy to pay for. I just ordered my drink, asked for extra flavor ( 2 extra pumps)and said I like it sweet. I stepped out of the establishment took a sip and it’s as if there is no extra flavor there. I’m at a loss. I want to support them, but I can’t keep paying seven dollars for a drink that tastes dramatically different depending on who makes it.

My drink was so good
When my mom and I went up to order the lady was on her phone
I loved the coffee house beautiful would maybe go again

I’m 12 and I come hear every day they treat me very nicely along with everyone else and great breakfast and drinks!!! 10/10

Java house makes the best coffee in Cedarburg and their staff is amazing. Perfect vibes of small town charm and deliciously brewed coffee.

This place is so skibbidi alpha toilet Sigma and the servers are so rizzy -from @snakepeony (ps they will still never be as Ohio as me 😉)

Try to visit here whenever in Cedarburg.

We have been here several times. It's our favorite! The drinks are always delicious and the service is always friendly. Part of the drink menu rotates seasonally which is always fun and delicious. The moon milks are a must try!

Unfortunately I was not a fan of Java House. From the moment I walked in the door, it didn't smell good. It was a small, cramped area for me and there was a lady standing in my way with a dachshund dog (highly doubt it was a legit service animal). I navigated to the line and saw another dog at a table near me that was jumping up and putting its paws on the table.
I am a dog lover, but not exactly appropriate to be bringing in a happy go lucky dog into a business that clearly is not a service animal.
I ended up taking my coffee to go and the small paper cup/lid leaked on my hand as I walked around the town which was frustrating because I didn't have a napkin or anything.
I read some good reviews but unfortunately my experience for a Saturday morning was not what I had hoped. If I had to choose between the coffee shops in the downtown of Cedarburg, I would opt for either Fiddleheads or Coffee Roasters, and do not forsee myself returning to Java House. The young lady that did take my order was kind, so I do appreciate that.

Great location in Cedarburg, great old building with classic coffee shop vibes. Not so good service, food, or coffee. Feel bad saying this cause the ladies who were there were working hard, but waaaayyyyyyy understaffed. It took literally 25 mins for a coffee, breakfast sandwich and muffin. The lady at the counter was stressed. The cold brew tasted a few days old, the breakfast sandwich was not even as good as a gas station breakfast sandwich. Served on a stale old mediocre bagle. And the lemon poppy muffin was just ok at best. Spent 21 dollars with tip for something that left alot to be desired. Hope it gets better because the place has been around a long time, and it's got plenty of potential to be a great coffee shop. I'd give 2.5 stars if I could be completely honest.

When we lived in the area Java House was our go-to coffee place, so when I was passing through recently I had to stop. Some creative new things on the menu like Cardamom Rose lattes and Butterfly Pea Flower Lemonade, but old classics too. Still as charming as ever.

A great place for a variety of drinks but I have not been happy with the food here. The wait is long and the cafe is super busy in the mornings so the amount of people waiting for good make the small space very crowded. Just today I ordered a $7 mango habanero sausage that was supposed to come with a bun & mango slaw and got nothing but a small sausage wrapped in foil. I had already been waiting 25 min and had somewhere to be so I rushed out & couldn’t even go back to have my order fixed! It was a good sausage but def not work $7 without the bun & slaw to make it a real meal.

Stopped before work about 6:35 am to grab a coffee. The kindest barista I have ever encountered suggested an iced Rose latte. It was awesome! Thank you - can't wait to try another drink.
