Java Island

3180 Village Vista Dr, Lafayette, CO

★★★★★4.7(221 Google reviews)

Crema's Take

This Lafayette drive-thru punches well above typical grab-and-go expectations, with a genuinely impressive lineup of creative seasonal drinks and quality pastries that keep locals coming back. The staff's warmth and speed are standout features—you'll experience genuine friendliness without the wait—and their smooth, balanced coffee approach appeals to those who prefer a gentler cup over heavily roasted profiles. It's the kind of neighborhood spot that feels like a real discovery rather than a chain, especially if you're after something distinctive but convenient.

Java Island has excellent food, drinks and the service is extraordinary. Please know that if you have never been here it is a drive-thru coffee shop with a huge variety of coffee drinks, pastries and tasty breakfast burritos. It does have a walk up window with an outdoor seating area if you want to eat there. I highly recommend visiting!

Such a cute spot! The service is always so nice and friendly (and fast!!) and the coffee is smooth! Their seasonal flavors are also so good. I love stopping by here. Highly recommend if you’re in the area and you want a drive thru spot that’s not starbucks.

After reading I guess some old reviews I decided to try it. I agree with the person that said it tastes like Starbucks ( which I don’t like ) my latte could have put hair on my chest. Tastes terrible and their prices were way higher than most places I have gone! Will not be back

This place has got to learn how to make a latte. It’s so bad and I came back after 3-4 years to see if their product is any better. It tastes exactly like Starbucks- terrible bitter coffee with milk that’s just warm with a ton of foam on top. Don’t charge $6 for a latte if you don’t know how to make them!!! There is no good coffee on this side of Erie and it’s so frustrating. The way you steam milk makes or breaks a latte. This place is no better than cheap fast food places. Came here yesterday and had an awful latte- drove all the way to Cristos and had an amazing latte. Please do better
