Java & Jam

10 gold stars for our wait staff Joe! He stands as a role model for what service should look like at all service establishments and especially eateries! So pleasant, knowledgeable, helpful and great personality. Give him a raise and a promotion - guys like him are hard to find in today's workforce. The food was also very good but we wanted to make a point of Joe's excellence in particular because he's a standout. We live in Ft L and will make sure to come back when Joe is working (he's off on Tue/Wed because we asked!) Oatmeal was just lovely with sliced almonds, fruit and steel-cut oatmeal - heaven! Thank you, Joe!! xo

Came on a Thursday morning, got seated right away. The servers were positive and attentive. We got the chai pudding, which was refreshing and filling and delicious, and the Benedict: the hollandaise was a little too salty, and in my opinion it didn’t the need the tomato, but overall it was very satisfying and filling. I also ordered hash browns and they were a little undercooked- which is why only 4 stars for the food.

I had an 11am flight out of Fort Lauderdale and searched high and low for a breakfast spot to check out prior to my flight. Java & Jam had good reviews on Yelp and opened at 7:30am on Sunday- it was the winner! We arrived a few minutes after opening. We were able to park directly in front of the restaurant. The parking is metered and cost $3 for two hours. When we walked in I noticed a sign they indicated you can sit wherever you like. We opted to dine outside on the covered patio. They have abundant seating inside and out. Wait staff greeted us and took our drink orders. He came back and answered any questions we had regarding the menu. I opted for the smoked salmon toast and my friend ordered the pancakes with bacon. I did order a chai latte with oat milk too. The drink came out quickly. It was pretty tasty. Chai is always hit or miss for me. I would say this one was a hit. It did not have an artificial taste. My salmon toast was amazing! It was so much food that I struggled to eat it all. I did not try my friend’s pancakes but she said they were good. Overall, this is a great place to stop for good tasting food! I am sure I will be back when I am in the city again!

The food was exceptional only Recommendation I have is for larger portions and a bit more seasoning for the food.

I went on a Saturday morning without reservations, around 11:00 and waited about 45 minutes, granted it was prime time for brunch. It was definitely worth the wait. The coffee options were delicious, i wanted to try them all. I had a lavender latte, which was perfect, not too sweet but flavorful. I ordered the Smoked salmon toast, it was delicious. I will definitely come back to enjoy the atmosphere and the food. The service was a little rushed but understandable because there was a lot of people to attend to.
