What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"Ordered mobile delivery. The driver only delivered the drink. When I called the store I was told your food is still here. Why wasn't my food and drink together? Why was I told to "come and get it" and "it would be remade" only offer I was given was a refund for the food so the driver got $5 to deliver a drink.... Cool. Horrible customer service do better and be better and after that do even better than you think you have."
"Cute coffee shop in the heart of Iowa city. I went on a Sunday afternoon and it was pretty busy. My white mocha was delicious, the menu seems like there is something for everybody. It is family friendly and looks like it’s a pretty popular spot for the college kids. Will definitely be back!"
"An Iowa City institution. Coffee and pastries are on point. Usually have been pretty good at fulfilling online orders for pickup. Finding a place to sit can be tough sometimes, but if you get one, you can stay and study for a while. I just wish they still stayed open at night. It used to be a great place to hang or study at night."
"I had the worst experience at Java house today! I go there frequently to work and study because I liked the environment and it was good to out of the house. Today they kicked me out of Java house! They said that if I do not buy a drink from them I can’t study there. This makes absolutely no sense at all!!!! As a coffee shop you should be welcoming even if they aren’t buying a drink. If I am a company I would make my space as welcoming as possible and never kick someone out for simply not buying a drink. They don’t care about the customer only there profits. Well guess what I will never be going again and will not be bringing my friends either. So they lost a loyal customer and lost money and their reputation. I DO NOT RECOMMEND JAVA HOUSE TO ANYONE THEY ARE RUDE AND NOT WELCOMING."
"I had a meeting here and purchased a coke from the restaurant they were connected with. I was requested to move from the restaurant and go somewhere else, so I went to this café which the restaurant was connected with. A rude worker asked my acquaintance and I to leave if I did not purchase anything; which I did purchase a coke from them which was quite confusing. What was infuriating was there were many students studying there and some had not purchased a drink or any food items, but they did not bother to ask them to leave. The coffee is overpriced anyway, and it is not anything different from the ordinary overpriced lattes you could get anywhere else. I do not recommend studying or having a meeting here, for they will not treat you welcomingly."
"I will start off saying that the whole reason I stopped here was that they have a roast called "St Louis Blues," but it is still worth a visit. I stopped..."
