    I love Java House. I've only ever been to this one and the location downtown next to the Englert. I have nothing bad to say.

    This location is way better than the one downtown. Quieter, quicker service and wifi works really well

    The vibe is similar to downtown, but they always seem to have a good seat available here, and the coffee comes out quicker!

    Try putting the nutmeg on your coffee. It makes an already-delicious drink even better
