Java is my favorite coffee place! Among all the places I've been, I love their vanilla latte with almond milk (half sweet) the best. More than that, I called this morning to see if they could do a box of coffee for a group. Usually they need a bit of a heads up (didn't know), but they made it happen in 15 minutes! I came in to pick it up and they had a carrier full of extra cups, creamers, sugars (multiple kinds) and stir sticks without me even asking. Plus, the staff is so kind and personable. Love the vibe of the whole shop and always have a great experience.

Very nice staff ! I ordered a medium roast pour over, excellent flavor. It appeared they had a pretty extensive menu and pastry selection. it doesn't look big from the outside but this is a very large yet cozy coffee shop, plenty of seating if you have a larger group. I felt very relaxed while I sipped my coffee and completed some work I had to finish. I sat in the back area where it also appears they host live acts from time to time. Just a heads up, They prefer you where a mask in until your seated.

Very pricey!! I like the atmosphere in this place but definitely disappointed with the prices. I was wondering if they charged me for an art exhibition admission at the same time I got my food, lol because the sandwich i ordered has been the most expensive sandwich (breakfast sandwich) i have been eating so far, but wait it wasn't even a sandwich it was a toast with avocado for $8.00 or so and I won't give them a 2 stars review because the "Buckeye moka" was good.

Great little coffee shop, love the decor, very friendly staff. The food here is awesome as is the coffee. They support a great local bakery that employs people with special needs and have a great selection of other merch. Grab a bite to eat, get some coffee to go, and take some of their fresh roast home for later/

I have been a regular customer here since they first opened and I can say from experience that Java Central is the best coffee shop in central Ohio. Consistently good coffee and food, friendly fast service and owners that care about their employees and the community. This place feels like home. I'm looking forward to seeing the new expansion when it's finished!

Such a great coffee shop. Love this place. Well worth the drive from grove city .. super friendly staff , the coffee is excellent.. it was even nice and warm inside today for a change. Love love loved the warm !!

This place fits the “neighborhood coffee shop” title perfectly. Such a warm and inviting atmosphere and delicious coffee!I got the cardamom rose latte and it was just perfect. Not too sweet, not too bitter.

What a great little shop! I've been wanting to try it since seeing it when visiting my brother this summer. It did not disappoint. Met there with friends, I had an oat cardamom latte (super interesting, I liked it) and my friends had the honey latte (reported as not too sweet, but good honey flavor) and a hot cocoa. The house-made chocolate peppermint cake was DIVINE and huge, easily split among us. Also they had all kinds of Pattycake sweets! If I still lived in Columbus, I'd come here often and I'll definitely be back. Cute outdoor seating for whenever things get warm again. Oh and a nice clean bathroom with lots of hooks for coats/bags, doesn't go unappreciated in winter especially! The staff was also very friendly!

The drinks were amazing and I was very happy with the food. I had the gluten free breakfast sandwich and it was the same size as my boyfriend’s. They do have baked goods from local gluten free bakeries, which I enjoyed. We will definitely go back.

I went to Otterbein, and spent many a study session at Java Central there. Even 7 years later, I love stopping by here. The staff is super nice, the atmosphere is great and the drinks are fun!
