Crema's Take
“Java Caliente draws praise from regulars who appreciate the high-protein options and staff like Raul who remember orders, but the 2.9-star rating on only 20 reviews reflects serious inconsistency: customers report wildly inflated pricing that drops when questioned, underfilled cups, and a boba drink so poorly executed that multiple people flagged it. With this thin review sample, you're essentially gambling on whether you'll land with the friendly-service crowd or hit the pricing-games-and-quality-issues version. Skip it unless you're specifically chasing Raul and don't mind the risk.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Parking available.

See all on Google →I love this coffee shop so much they offer a lot of clean ingredient, high protein options! The service is always great, Special shout out to Raul and friends for remembering my order and making my drink really good! Nice atmosphere to study or get work done as well.
Barista tried to charge me $19 for 2 hot drinks. When I questioned it, the price went down to $15. And then when I got them, the cups weren't even full.
Milk Tea Boba was the worst I've ever tasted. I watched them make it...boba, ice, milk, tea. It had no sweetness to it at all...even after adding honey. Do NOT buy their milk tea boba!!
I honestly don’t understand all the negative reviews. I’ve been going over the past four days, every day. Every day I was greeted to friendly and received quick service. The pastries taste great, so does the regular coffee.
I wanted to grab a coffee and some snacks right before my flight left so I visited Java Caliente. I was so thankful for Raul. He happily took my order and made sure I was able to use my full comp which I was so grateful for. Their Vietnamese coffee is really good! Their turkey…
