I highly recommend the chicken salad at this great little lunch spot located in the heart of historic Hannibal. Delicious!

I was forced to tip while ordering at the counter, and they didn't bring my food. What really bothered me was that my sandwich wasn't really cooked, I will post the pictures. It's a good thing nobody checked on me because I was mad and quite disappointed. I paid a lot of money for the food that I didn't order or receive while sitting down. Ask for a tip if service is provided.

Excellent food and coffee and they allow you to bring the dogs in to order. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend if you are in the area.

Good place to hang out. Today, there were not many tourists, so the locals had the place mostly to themselves. Great atmosphere and the staff are proficient and friendly.

Nestled in the heart of Hannibal, this vibrant eatery boasts an appealing atmosphere and a diverse menu. Patrons have praised the delightful coffee and unique ambiance, ideal for families and coffee aficionados alike. However, several guests voiced concerns over service issues, including mandatory tips and unfulfilled orders. Food quality varied; while some enjoyed the custom sandwiches and healthy options, others found dishes like chicken salad and beer cheese soup lacking. Despite these critiques, many recommend visiting for the charming environment, distinctive treats, and overall cultural experience that this locale offers. Just adjust expectations for service.

This cafe is an absolute gem. I have traveled to Hannibal, MO quite frequently for work. Every time I come to this town, I stay at the The Travelers Rooming House, right next door to Java Jive, and go to the cafe every day! The baked goods are always fresh and yummy. The breakfast sandwiches and sandwiches in general are delicious and BIG. I love the salads especially in this area where good, fresh salads are very rare. The drip coffee is so so not my favorite, but it doesn't warrant one less star because I get espresso drinks instead which are great! The gift shop in the cafe is one of the best. I always leave my work trips with items from the shop to give as gifts or keep for myself like a beautiful pie plate that I use frequently! IMO the best restaurant in Hannibal. Consistent, delicious, fresh, with a wonderful gift shop! What's not to love? Service: Dine in Meal type: Breakfast Price per person: $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

I was downtown for the Folklife Festival and got an orange vanilla latte and wow was it good. A little pricey but worth it for the drink. Perfect for a cool fall day. I'd recommend them to anyone looking for a good coffee drink. Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Whenever I am in Hannibal, talking about the Walk to End Alzheimer's event coming up on September 15th here in Hannibal, I have to stop into Java Jive for their amazing coffee and amazing smiles I always get when walking through the door. This place is so welcoming with absolutely wonderful people working here. Thank you Java Jive for such great service!

Ate lunch here yesterday and had the Pollock sandwich. The chicken salad was some of the best I've ever had and the croissant it came on was great as well. Will definitely be back.

Wonderful! My parents took my sister and I to Java Jive during a family vacation over 15 years ago. Their frozen cappuccinos were the best we had ever had. We have often talked about returning there and so today decided to do so. The coffee did notdisappoint!

I love this place! Java Jive is my family's go to place for breakfast, lunch, baked goods, lattes and more. Great selection of offbeat greeting cards, books, puzzles and gifts. It seems that they feature different baked goods each day. And they make bigsugar cookies featuring monthly themes like Pride month 4th of July. The kids always are jazzed when I bring some home as asurprise. And they started taking selfies with the cookies (some posted here) Employees are helpful, pleasant and some evenremember my name. The selection of food, the ambience the seating areas are very creative, welcoming and offer a safe haven tosit with friends, family or enjoy some alone time. Highly recommended!

Cute coffee shop on Main Street featuring light meals and pastries. There's a shop inside with a wide variety of kitschy items for sale as well. Good atmosphere quick service

Not only is this place super cute with its eclectic mismatched dining sets it also has a great mix of quick gift items throughout the whole place. Some for the tourists (Thanks! and some for the 'oops I have that baby shower later today! ' Ofcourse if its food weren 't good that would defeat the purpose of it being a cafe first and boutique second. Luckily the food myfriend and I had was delicious and fairly inexpensive. They also had my absolute favorite flavor of ice cream in stock, BlueMoon; so I might be a bit biased. Definitely worth a pass through, and a scoop or two!

We had a great time here! We needed to eat outside because we had the dog with us. Great outdoor seating. Coffee was great, staff was super nice and friendly and food was very well done and presentation was great. Lots of little knick knacks on sale from various vendors. Really enjoyed this place!! After walking around Hannibal this place was probably the best place to eat!Would definitely return!!

The Vulcan dark roast is excellent. They provide a cup for self-service, and the line to get one was short, so the service was efficient. The ambiance seemed intriguing, though I didn’t stay to sit down.
