JavAmore Cafe

Great home-​style food.
Usually rendezvous here with a friend for lunch on some Wednesday of the month.
The sandwiches, soup, salads, and smoothies are delicious using mostly fresh unprocessed ingredients.
As others have mentioned, the service can be hit or miss. For the most part the cashier taking the order is warm and attentive to taking orders and answering questions. It’s the delivery that can be a problem.
Last time we ate at Javamore I ordered a Ham & Cheese sandwich with a Strawberry — Banana smoothie. The youthful waitress bought out our sandwiches. I signaled her a few minutes later and asked about my smoothie. She pointed to a corner of the counter, which was out of my line of sight, and said it was «over there.»
Would have been very easy for her to walk a few steps across the room and deliver it. The order taker did not indicate I would have to pickup the smoothie separate from the sandwich.
This is the kind of thing that costs a restaurant what would otherwise have been a Five-​star review. I was going to give Javamore a two-​star, but went with three remembering the good meals I’ve had there in the past.
Will be suggesting we try a new place for our next lunch.

I had a great egg salad sandwich. Would recommend.

Just got two breakfast sammies and they were delicious and hot and fast! Very cute place friendly staff. Thanks!

I love stopping here to get my coffee and breakfast. They make the yummiest roasted vegetable sandwich I’ve ever had (ask them the secret ingredient) I always ask for the roasted veggies in my eggs SOO good! The gals are very friendly and they always remember me :) I love it when they say, «would you like your ususl?»

My family and I love coming to JavAmore on the weekends for breakfast. The wait staff is super friendly and they take good care of us. The food is really good and comes quickly!

Love this place. Have planned romantic picnics, business meetings, and parties ordering sandwiches everytime. When I call them and order up sandwiches, they are always ready by the time I need them. Food delicious, staff is amazing. My husband and I have dined here as well. I received excellent service every time. I have yet to be disappointed. We have used this café at least 25 times.

If you want to go where staff is superb at disregarding basic costumer service, has perfected the theatrical art of emotionless zombies that don’t dare break character by greeting you with a hello and smile or laugh at a silly joke, and definitely don’t have to worry about them thanking you for a tip come on down! If you love when you are so uncomfortable after ordering because of the way they stare at you with eyes empty of humor and humanity you want to escape outside as quickly as possible this is your place! It’s all this and more: D

I love this place. Whenever I am able I leave my home office and take a break at this friendly
comfortable Café. The food is delicious and everyone is friendly and helpful. On weekends they have a full breakfast. I love to read the paper and enjoy the country drive from my house to Penngrove. Simply the best café around for coffee, breakfast and/​or lunch. I must come here at least three times a week.

Coffee is okay, the breakfast burrito is around $ 8 and it’s the size of my hand I was still hungry after too. Friendly staff though I will give them that.

Great food, excellent friendly staff and owner! I love meeting friends or clients for one of their breakfast sandwiches with a large cup of coffee! The local products are very important to me. Penngrove is such a wonderful little town, and this central location makes it easy to stop in for a meal or beverage.

Not only does JavAmore serve the BEST coffee around, but the staff and service is superior. They treat you like family– the family! Always a pleasure there!!! They need more of an animal friendly (vegan) menu but otherwise they are superior!

Although a modest little coffee shop, they have some coffees that are really excellent. They were pouring an Ethiopian on the day we came, and it was far superior to anything I’ve gotten at Peet’s in years. JavAmore’s Ethiopian was sweet, floral, and even good when it got cold — which is mind-​boggling. We usually drink French Roast, black, and are fans of Highwire, Flying Goat, and Peet’s. But now I’m sorry we didn’t buy some of those beans to take home!

When I visit a café that has «Java» or «Coffee» in the name, I expect coffee at least of the Starbucks or Peets quality — but I found the coffee weak and stale. This might be because I came at 2 and it wasn’t fresh… it was disappointing. This is my second trip… once 5 years ago and then today because my companion heard so many good things about it. I can only think there is a microcosm of people who enjoy weak coffee — that’s why all the favorable reviews.
I ordered a salad — which was okay but not «OMG-​I-​gotta-​come-​back-​and-​eat-​another-​one» good.
My friend had a cookie and we agreed that the 2 for a dollar Safeway bakery cookies are much better. (larger, more flavor and fresh)
The people at JavAmore are very friendly and the atmosphere is like home. It is a great place to meet and talk if you are not too picky about the quality of your food and drink.

Must try the Tasty Roast Beef on a seeded roll. So good. If your ordering to go, I recommend calling in the order as they can be busy.
I also like to pick up a jar of tomato jam, it is delicious!

A nice location to sit and relax with a coffee or one of those specialty drinks also. Have to say… its a lil’ pricey for the portions, don’t get me wrong… the sandwiches are very tasty, and have some specialty sauces on them, but a breakfast sandwich with egg, cheese and a thin slice of ham on an English muffin should not cost over $ 6.00. Maybe cause their the only game in town. All in all, I recommend checking them out… jus pay attention to the prices and the menu, there’s things not listed.

This is a regular stop for us.
I started going to Javamore on my way to work back before I retired. Since I retired we stop in a few times a month as a coffee stop on our bike rides.
We’d come by more often, except we live quite a way away.
They have wonderful food and coffee and are nice folks too!

What a great country deli with a friendly helpful staff. Food was great. Will go back

This has to be one of the best breakbeat places I have ever been too. The meals are out if this world.
The food is so fresh and delivered right to you. I love it’s not a chain place but a place where charm exists. The selection is outstanding and I could eat anything there and be so happy.
The only thing is he service can at times be slower then u would like. But is alright.
All in all its a darn good place.

Terrific sandwiches. Love this little place.
We frequently order lunch from JavAmore for working lunches at my office and they are a big hit.
I recommend for large lunch orders delivered to the office.

Great little café with good salads. A few gluten-​free options and full coffee barista menu. Cute décor.
