What People Are Saying

from Google & Yelp

"Nice sized cafe right at the end/start of the N Muni line. Closest cafe to Ocean Beach (you literally just have to cross the street). It has a nice beachy vibe to it, in tones of light wood. It does get busy, especially on weekends. So keep that in mind if you are counting with a sit. Tried their Hibiscus Tea, it was good! Decent Macha Latte as well. Not the most expensive cafe I have been to."

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Java Beach Café – San Francisco (Sunset District) Java Beach isn’t just a coffee house — it’s a community. This quaint, long-established spot has been part of my life since the early 2000s, and I’m so glad to have found my way back. It’s vibrant, welcoming, and full of genuine people who make every visit special. The bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast burrito is hands-down my favorite — #1 tier in my book. The coffee is always hot, dark, and perfectly brewed. A big shout-out to Michelle, Tiffany, Dylan, Fiona, and the rest of the crew — some just starting out, all of them eager, kind, and attentive. Their friendly energy makes this place what it is. If you’re anywhere near the Sunset District, do yourself a favor — stop in for a burrito and a cup of coffee. You’ll feel right at home. ☕🌯❤️"

"I've gotten some excellent pastries here: parmesan muffin and pumpkin bread with frosting. My friend raved about his sandwich. The service is friendly and the location is amazing across a narrow street from an island with plantings and paths right near the beach, public restrooms if the cafe is busy, and at the end of the N streetcar. Pleasant outdoor seating has always been available for our medium-sized group in the early afternoon on a Friday."

"This is a cute and bustling cafe. We parked at the beach parking lot and walk over (5-6 mins walk) Service is quick. They offer a wide range of coffee drinks, pastries, and sandwiches. All are decent. They offer agave syrup or honey to adjust sweetness to your liking. Restroom is a bit unattended (minus one star) There are a lot of tables but they get filled up. You need to act quick when someone stand up 😅 I like the vibe and how easy we can just walk across to the beach. Will definitely visit again."

"Java Beach is a convenient stop if you’re just looking for a coffee, but I don’t recommend ordering food here. I’ve tried multiple times to have a successful meal and it’s never worked out, so I’ve officially given up. The kitchen always seems chaotic, and if you order more than one item, something will almost certainly be missed. You’ll end up asking multiple employees to check on it before anyone actually does, only to find out the item was never started. The food is overpriced and underwhelming, and not worth the time or frustration. Stick to coffee, which is decent enough, and enjoy the convenient location, but save your appetite for somewhere else"

"Came here on a Saturday morning at 10:30 AM and the place was packed by locals, many after their morning runs. It's conveniently located right next to the..."
