First time there. Friendly place. Made to feel welcomed as the attendent walked thru options. Simple Latte was delicious. Had a breakfast burrito that was very good. Even played piano there while waiting. If your offended by Bible references this may not be for you. Felt like a cross between a church rec hall and a typ coffee Cafe.

Small, charming, family-owned coffee shop with a great atmosphere, plenty of seating and spaces to do work, and some of the best coffee Ive ever tasted. For a place thats out in the burbs, this is a real treat for someone who loves getting coffee in the city. Its never too noisy or too busy, and you can get donuts, gelato, and smoothies too. They even sell high-quality coffee beans at great prices.

Great coffee and great service. This is what a coffee shop should be like and every neighborhood should have one. Too bad I live too far from here. If I am ever in this area again...I will stop by for sure.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this shop! Found it on a fluke and ended up getting there at 6:45 pm on Friday and didnt leave until 9 pm. We really enjoyed their live music with Dash Red and Alyssa was great! Although she was not very knowledgeable about their coffee, the Jack-O-Latte was great and I DO NOT like flavored coffee! I even bought a bag! As an unapologetic follower of Jesus, I LOVED all of the art and praise to the man above. I will most definitely be back VERY SOON!

The coffee and tea are amazing. More importantly, the people who work there are terrific. I started going there for the drinks but now I go just as much for the conversation. If you havent been to Java Plus, I strongly recommend you give them a try!

This family owned coffee shop is very family-friendly and pet friendly too. They have a great selection of coffee, teas and other treats. They also sell there own whole bean coffee in a verity of flavors. Check out there nitro coffees too.

Been there a few times. The first time, the staff preparing the food and drinks were not wearing masks, and it took more than 10 minutes for my order. The second time, the staff was wearing a mask, but some people having a meeting did not follow the mask rule sign that is in front of the door. The food and drinks were okay. I think the Christian imagery is over the top for a coffee shop that serves the public from all religions and socio economic backgrounds.

Review №23

Great coffee. But in the middle of a health crisis and the staff isnt wearing masks no enforcing those coming in? Making everyones food and drinks? Thanks for putting my health at risk. I will not be back. Unbelievable. Went to Starbucks instead since they apparently are better citizens.

I love this place. I take any opportunity to stop by. Everyone who works there has always been super nice to me even when I only buy one latte and sit around for 90 minutes reading. Its a great place with with good coffee, good ambiance, and some pretty astounding art on the walls that you just have to see to believe. I recommend this place to people all the time.

One of the better coffee shops in Aurroa. The service is excellent! The young lady working offered samples of their nitro coffee infused with Aragon which I HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Their pastries are fresh and better than Dunkin Donuts. Definitely will be coming back.

Great little coffee shop. For my first time visit, I had decaf coffee, which was great, and reasonably priced. I was also impressed with tea selection, which you could smell in little jars of leafs they had (great idea). Didnt notice the Christian aspect, but thats okay. even though I am probably not savable (others have tried - long story). Hope this place does well - it is obviously a labor of love. As a sign in restaurant I saw once said, Quality is no accident.

Review №35

My visit here was...interesting. the shop is clean and cute. The coffee ended up being fine, and the staff was friendly.However, the wait time for two people ordering a sandwich and a tea latte each, in an otherwise empty shop, was surprising. We each probably waited 5-10 minutes for our orders. Additionally, the staff seemed to not know what we were ordering at all, and we had to point the items out on the menu.Maybe they were both new? Maybe the menu itself was new? Something seemed to be amiss here and we couldnt really figure it out. I wasnt upset with my experience, but I also wouldnt necessarily out this on the top of my list to return to.

I had to get the blueberry scone tea latte again because it was absolutely wonderful the first time. We also purchased a few bags of coffee which came in amazing flavor combinations such as blueberry and hazelnut. They smelled absolutely delightful and we are super excited to try them out!!! Wonderful hospitality and a cute little shop.

I attended open mic last night and the talent was just breath taking. They offer Gluten-free treats and It was the fluffiest, most tasty ever! The owners are so friendly. Next time that I want a fancy chai tea, count me in. Thank you Java for being there!

Java Plus is a hidden gem in Montgomery. Great coffee! And the owner, Mike, actually teaches a coffee & Tea class at a local community college. Hes a real expert. Atmosphere is atypical for a coffee shop, its brighter and a little more social and overall, refreshing. Also the home of the best chai tea latte that Ive ever had.

Overall, nice place. I stopped in today for the first time. I ordered an iced caramel macchiato but it wasnt quite right. I will try something else next time. I did however enjoy the customer service and the muffin I had. The owner sat down with me and we discussed having a story time for children sometime during the day. I was very pleased! The place is very large and has great coffee shop decor. There is a large room for renting if you need a meeting place. The young lady who helped us was extremely nice. I will go back and give it a try again. Love locally own shops. They also, before I forget, offer coffee and tea to purchase and make at home. Overall, nice place!

Went in to support this small business, but when I go in no one is wearing masks.We have the highest positivity% since this began, customers AND ESPECIALLY SERVERS should be wearing masks, especially when they would be preparing my drink/food.

Never knew about this place but it can become a great staple in the community. Ive seen every walk of life come in to this shop. The people behind the counter were helpful and open to conversation. The coffee is good and my kids love the hot chocolate. You can pay for meals for others on the Redemption Board which I thought was a nice touch. They have shoes for the homeless. Decor was nice too.

Best Coffee I have ever had! Mike is amazing! Great atmosphere! Fun and lots of room! I had the butter pecan coffee today and it blew my mind at what great coffee tastes like. No need for cream or sugar; straight up and it was amazing. You cannot go wrong with this place for your next cup of joe.

I had been a Starbucks lover for over 15yrs and tried this place out when I moved to the area. It is walking distance from where I live which is very convenient for me. I have now been coming here for over a year and cant even enjoy a drink from Starbucks anymore because Java Plus is just exceptionally better. Everything I have tried from drinks to food to gelato is absolutely delicious and the very very few times I was not satisfied, I went back and they fixed it right away. The atmosphere is great and staff are always friendly. They also have these awesome punch cards where, when you get 10 punches you get a free drink!! I am so glad we found this place.

Review №76

Maybe the plus is better than the Java, I was not impressed. Also, when walkibgin the door I greeted the woman and the young guy and they barely mummered a word. Another customer came in chatting quickly in Spanish and the 2 people came alive. So apparently they have a preference in clientele. The sketchy gas station across the street has better coffee and ambiance.

The menu is terrible. They have most menus items hand written on a few poster boards behind the counter and then other items on a piece of paper on the counter. Not a lot coffee selection in store and the paninis are too plain/simple for the price. They do carry a decent selection of whole bean coffees.
