Description

Warm, locally beloved coffeehouse in Monticello, Iowa, known for friendly service, excellent coffee and bakery items, hearty breakfast sandwiches, wraps and rotating soups. Seasonal house drinks and a welcoming, coffee-themed interior with ample seating make it a convenient stop for travelers and regulars. Standouts include a Reuben panini and chicken-broccoli soup; note salads are reportedly small and disappointing. A cozy, community-minded spot worth returning to for coffee and comfort food.

The staff here is incredibly friendly, and their breakfast sandwiches and wraps are excellent. They complement their daily rotating soups perfectly. Additionally, they create their own seasonal drinks to celebrate the holidays and different times of the year.

Great atmosphere. Good coffee. Food was wonderful except if you want a salad. Taco salad Its not worth it. Buy cheap lettuce, serve chicken instead of heat lamp ground beef overcooked to perfection, and give me a huge bowl or plate. $9 for a literal handful of lettuce is pathetic!!!

Java Jones is my all time favorite coffee shop in all of Iowa! Loathe atmosphere, the food, the drinks….all of it! Don’t make it over to much these days but spent so much time there when working at Camp Courageous! It’s always a nice treat when I’m in the area.
