  Beloved local gathering space and coffeeshop! This Irish-owned establishment has delicious berry soda bread they bake daily. An amazing spot right next to the beach, they also feature the tastiest soft serve in the Outer Sunset which is a must on our few hot beach days (made with local Straus milk!) I frequently breakfast here and my go-to's are the inimitable bacon egg breakfast burrito, the classic Salmon Sunrise (bagel with cream cheese and lox), and of course the latte which is lovely and creamy and has a nice (coffee) bite to it! They use Lady Falcon coffee which is great Outer Sunset coffee roasters as well. Some Sundays Java Beach has local bands playing, usually jazz, and they always choose really good musicians whose music elevates the vibe excellently. There is a lovely outdoor parklet, and across the street the center divide has been turned into a beautiful public park by the owners of the cafe. Delightful!

  I ordered a matcha latte, but it had no flavor at all. I occasionally order food delivery, but every time I order from this place, I end up feeling disappointed. When I ask whether the food is ready, they respond rudely by saying “give me one second.” There is no sense of customer service or courtesy.

  The breakfast burrito and irish soda bread are delicious. Sadly they stopped offering the cream soda. The service could be more polite and organized, we had to ask for one of items which was missed and then for the sides which they forgot.

  Berry soda bread was fluffy and not overly sweet....never seen soda bread at a coffee shop before so that was a nice treat. Americano was good and strong. Bathroom was clean. Staff and environment was pleasant. Location fantastic.

  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.
