Java's Cafe

Great place to go to chat with a friend or work on art. The iced mocha was really good and the service was fast. The place can feel a bit cramped because there is a lot of seating and it can get busy around lunch, but the overall atmosphere is still chill and artsy.

Great place to go if you’re looking for someplace to get some work or reading done.
The sandwiches are amazing.
I order a Cortado it was great, but I didn’t realise how small it was until I received it.

If someone from out of town asked me for the best coffee shop in Rochester, this would have to make a top five list, if not number one. It's got what I believe most people want out of a coffee shop experience. Quality Drinks, Unique atmosphere, Good service, Good hours and accessibility.

First time here. Such friendly staff. I felt so relaxed here. I was treated like I was local. Will definitely make the trip back just to come here. And I will pay for parking for more than an hour! Delicious Dirty Chai. And they gave me a to go cup with a little extra🌸

Probably my favorite coffee shop in Rochester. Recommend their Aztec mocha and hot chocolate. The snacks are great, too. Great vibe and atmosphere. Great neighborhood.

Great coffee been coming here and around the area since I was a kid (born in 2000). I love love the yerba mate as someone who wants caffeine but doesn't like coffee!

Always love the art and whenever my friends from out of town visit I bring them here :) I always grab a bag of fresh ground coffee to ship back home as well. PLEASE never stop!

If you're in Rochester 2 things are a must: Museum of play & Java's. Great coffee and the best thing about them is the atmosphere & art. Amazing! 5 star!

Great coffee. Thats what locals say. In addition, a great ambience, takes you back to some old-fashioned cafees in Europe. Friendly service.

I love the smaller coffee shops, supporting local businesses.
Plenty of space to hang out, drink ,eat, play around on your computer, etc.
Great experience.

I always make a point to visit this unique coffee place when visiting. The Aztec hot coca is simply amazing. The art is great to look at while enjoying libations. They have a downstairs pool table. They are gluten free and vegan friendly.

The best thing about this place is it is open till late hours which is something impossible to find in this city. The location is very nice. Very cozy and cute. The food quality could be better in my opinion, still good though. There are also vegan options.

Great vibes here and definitely a very unique place for a good coffee. I can recommend the Flat White with Oatmilk.

I've been a long time fan of Java's, even before I was a coffee drinker but if you're learning to love coffee like I once was, can't recommend the Shot in the Dark enough! The Health cookie is my go-to, as well 🍪

Recommend the coffee they make great lattes. Cafe ole is a lot like a latte for less with foamed milk btw. Wish they would bring back the French toast coffee, was better than angel kisses or Jamaican me crazy. Had me coming back all day for refills! If you like Picasso paintings or independent artists work surrounding you while you sip your Joe this is the place for you.

Great coffee shop with a unique atmosphere and fantastic people watching. I love stopping in here during the day when in the city on business or in the evening after a show or a game... Or just to hang out and watch the Eastman School students and business people who frequent Gibbs Street and the East end.

Cool place to be to get work done or feel inspired.
Coffee, chai latte, and motcha latte were all good. And there is plenty of places to sit.

Java's in the downtown is one of my favorite places in Rochester. They have outside seating area. The drinks and snacks are very tasty. Especially coffee are not sweet as other café, that is the reason why i like Java's. And also they open until 1a.m which is really great for people who love to have a cup of coffee and play pool at night cause they do have pool tables underground.

So much to see and enjoy here. Had the granola with oat milk cup and a lovely latte.

Great little cafe near the school of music. Delicious food and nice atmosphere. The young man at the counter was very nice and definitely an asset to this establishment

This is the BEST coffee shop in the city, with something unique to offer at every corner.

Get the terrapin or Aztec mocha for a hand crafted beverage, and a health cookie. If here for lunch, check out the sand which case!
