Lava Java

"Cash or Venmo only, there's a slapping matcha latte for later in the day. Pre sweetened but only the slightest and still bitter ya!"

"Don’t waste your time. (This is not about the barista, they were fine. This is about the owner) * They don’t accept credit or debit cards here and expect you to Venmo or Zelle them the money. I came in around 4:30 to get a quick chia tea and I asked if I could sit inside while I waited for my friend, the owner snaps at me “15 minutes and we close” when it says they close at 5 like- I just took the time to Zelle you for over priced coffee and a 30% tip for the barista and you’re gonna be rude to me. I’m planning on disputing the charge with my bank. Honestly don’t come here."

"Ordered a cappuccino, half the cup was foam. Went back and stated that it should only be 2cm foam. Barista remade and then the woman behind the front counter rudely said that next time I need to ask for not much foam. Don’t blame the consumer when you guys are the ones incorrectly making coffees."

"small and sweet cafe with strong coffee, quality smoothies, and good tea. good pricing, fast and kind service. I personally recommend the coconut and banana smoothie. dairy free options!"

"I stopped by this establishment. I wanted to order 2 Turkey bacon clubs and I was told by the older lady working there (assuming it’s the owner) that they didn’t have any Turkey so she offered to chicken instead in substitution. I said yes. As we were talking and she was ringing up the transaction, she told me the total $23.35 and she asked cash or Venmo. I said Venmo and didn’t think much of it at that moment but thought it’s a bit pricey. I looked at the menu and the price is $8.75 each plus tax which this transaction didn’t make sense. I kindly asked her and she said she charged $2.00 each extra for bacon. I said you never told me that, you offered a substitution to a meat that you didn’t not have. I asked her for a copy of the receipt and she didn’t give me one so I took a picture of it. She didn’t refund me for the inconvenience and for her mistake. As as I was getting home, I was talking to my neighbor and told them if they have gone to this restaurant, they said it’s been a while since they had a similar situation with them overcharging for sandwiches without disclosing it, kinda like she’s money hungry and wants to tip herself. This establishment practices shady tactics and I’m sure since it’s cash only and Venmo, I’m sure they are dodging taxes. I have also reached out to Venmo to ensure their account is set up as a merchant account and not private, we should all pay our fair share of taxes."
