Come by here today. Trying buying drip coffee but they almost closed,asked Americano. I am not much like Americano but here was so good. Friendly staff. Definitely come back. Good price. Recommend this coffee shop

Service Friendly barista I ordered a chai latte at this shop and sat upstairs where I enjoyed quiet time reflecting and people watching It's in a great location to pick up coffee if you're doing errands in the Ballard area!

Very nice cafe with wifi! Stopped in here for about 45 minutes on a Thursday. Got a delicious matcha latte and it looks like they have some good baked goods as well. They accept cash and credit which is refreshing. Very quiet on a Thursday afternoon. Stop by!!!

Love Java Jahn! I've never been disappointed by their coffee, and they always have yummy food. Their chocolate chip banana slice is my favorite!!! The baristas have always been super friendly and welcoming, and the shop has a great vibe to chill at with a friend or have some time alone!

Considering the availability of good local institutions left in Seattle, Java Jahn provides some of the best upscale coffee services in the greater Seattle area. It is comparable to Cafe Allegro which is the oldest coffee shop in Seattle and served what is known to some people as the original Starbucks! The service and ambiance at Java Jahn will surprise you just getting off of Leary Avenue and stopping by for a small treat or breakfast. The baristas here are a lot like Shelley who used to run Java Hut up on the Miracle Mile, or Aurora, back in the day when the rockabilly scene and the alternative country music scene was really big and all of the ladies used to dress up like Bettie Page and Poison Ivy of the Cramps and the local scene still boasted lots of Greasers and hot-rodders. Java Jahn is the kind of place you find in Friends. Go here. Java Hut is now a really great Mexican Market with Oaxacan queso and really good fresh peppers and meals and spices but I don't know what they did with the back room. I think they use it for their storage and backstock. For local locals, Java Jahn is A Muddy Cup but for Ballard. We need to buy coffee here for all of the volunteers at the Ballard Food Bank around the corner. They don't have a full-service restaurant with a menu but they have an upstairs seating area just like the original Bauhaus in the Melrose Avenue building on Capitol Hill. 11/10. I'll be back y'all! I even applied for a job here back in the day. Yours Truly, Amelia O'Flaherty

The banana bread with tiny chocolate chips is the best reason to stop in, but if you'd like a good espresso or cortado you will be rewarded. Very small but not as small as a first impression, just glance up while at the counter. Nice baristas and - mixed feelings - it's never busy when I come, which is very random. Street parking.

My son and I stopped into Java Jahn a few weeks ago, while we were walking around the neighborhood and killing some time in between appointments. I had driven past their store many times but hadn't stopped in yet. I have been missing out! This place is a small and quaint, but warm and friendly coffee shop with lots of variety and selections with a caring staff. I had a drip coffee (bottle of water for my son ... he's only 2 so no caffeine for him) and we split a delicious and huge piece of coffee cake! The coffee was rich and full flavored. They have all the usual suspects on their menu and plenty of breakfast, lunch, and snack type foods & sandwiches to choose from. If you're in the area, I would highly recommend stopping there. You won't be disappointed!

I'd never been to Java Jahn, but the bus was running late so I decided to grab a cold brew before heading to work. I tend to make a coffee stop downtown (Cherry Street Coffee and Cedar & Spokes are two of my favorites) but I think I have a new morning routine! The cold brew is soft and almost nutty, but doesn't at all taste watered sown. The tiny shop was a little crowded, but I was in and out in about 2 minutes, which is vastly different than the 25 minutes I waited yesterday at Cherry St (yikes). Also, the coffee here is vastly less expensive. Winning all around!!
