June 2021 Update

Summer is right around the corner, we’re excited to be brewing the ViBe District’s best coffee and serving up great-tasting, healthy breakfast and lunch! You can continue to safely order at our outdoor kiosk or online and enjoy our outdoor self-seating patio, indoor self seating, or get your coffee and food to go.

We care deeply about the health of our employees and our community. Over one year ago, in March 2020, we acted fast and put our entire menu online to accommodate online ordering, take-out and local delivery. Since that time, we’ve worked hard to dial in our process and are happy to say that we’re continuing to serve great food and coffee to the community.

In September, we finished overhauling our outdoor seating area and walk-up order station. You can now order and pay online and have your food ready when you get here, or order in person and we’ll make your food and coffee for you while you wait. Either way, feel free to stay and enjoy your meal either in the comfort and shade of our outdoor dining area or in our self-seating indoor dining room.

Our indoor dining room is OPEN and seating is available on a seat-yourself, brewery-style dining basis. However, if you have a group and want to make sure that seating is available when you get here, you can call us before you arrive and we’ll hold a table for you.

Here’s to hoping everyone stays healthy, happy, and safe while enjoying the wholesome food, coffee and espresso we all love. We look forward to seeing you soon!

I came from Jacksonville, Florida to Virginia Beach and couldn’t be happier with my experience at Java Surf Cafe. I created my own breakfast made of White bread, grilled chicken, caramelized onions, mozzarella cheese, bacon, scrambled eggs and avocado + S. Pellegrino water. I’m picky when it comes to eating out because I’m used to homemade food. This place fulfilled my expectations. Breakfast was delicious and customer service was top notch.read more

I needed something different for my regular coffee routine and decided to try Java Surf. Parking is scarce so you’ll more than likely have to park somewhere up the street and walk up.It’s a pretty cool coffee shop. The inside decor and atmosphere are really nice and give off beachy, laid back, surf shop vibes. There is comfortable but limited seating inside as well as an outdoor patio.The menu has all sorts of options from bare bones coffee and tea to flavored lattes, and many breakfast and lunch items including wraps, sandwiches, and pastries. I got a Mediterranean wrap that was very filling and tasted amazing, and my iced latte was really good. The service was quick when I went and the folks working behind the counter were nice.read more

I've been to Javasurf several times to have lunch with my friend after we do yoga somewhere nearby.We typically order at the counter and then go sit outside on the back patio in the shade and enjoy a few hours of catching up.I love their breakfast bagel sandwiches which are many different options and all sound delicious as well as their smoothies.They have a pretty large menu and the vibes inside are really low-key and relaxed beach. The owner and employees inside are super friendly and happy to help and welcome you.read more

This place was awesome!I ordered a lox bagel and their signature iced vanilla latte and they were both amazing. The lox was fresh and tender. The coffee was great, not overly sweet.The prices are a bit on the high side, but I suppose that's what you can expect from a place that gets a lot of tourist business.Service was great, and everyone there was prompt and friendly.There is seating indoor and outdoors. The outdoor area is large and dog friendly. They also have a small bar where they serve craft beers in the patio area. There was live music on the patio, which was awesome. Their outdoor area is pretty legit overall.Great place and walking distance from the beach. It's definitely located in one of the nicer areas downtown.read more

As a visitor to the VIBE district and Virginia, I have to admit, now that I am back in New York I am craving their food and smoothies. The environment was comfortable as we ate outside, the servers were extremely friendly and the food came out quickly. I could watch my smoothies being made on the deck. This is definitely going to be one of my favorite local places to go when we visit again.read more

We loved this coffee shop! We stopped for a quick pick me up coffee on the way back to the beach from having lunch at Barrel 17, and very much enjoyed it. They have a lot of very original options for coffee drinks and food. Next time we are in town we'll definitely come back to eat!read more

Front of house very friend and unflappable. Sandwiches were excellent although they took a long time to come out because of to go orders. Salad with avocado and pico was so fresh we ate it without dressing. Coffee and Iced Coffee were really good. And the brownie, mmmmm.read more

Loved it here! We walked from our hotel on 24th street. We were confused at first how to order but the girls explained that you order outside and then pick a table inside or out and they bring the food to you. I made my own breakfast sandwich- a croissant with ham, cheese & cream cheese and it was AMAZING! I also had the toasted marshmallow iced coffee which was good, a little strong but I added some cream & sugar and it was good! My boyfriend got the cavalier club and he loved it! There is a pitcher where they offer free water which is cool. Very down to earth atmosphere. We wanted to go back before we left vacation but didn’t get the chance 🙁 will definitely return next vacation!read more

Great food and great coffee. I got the build your own breakfast sandwich, which was delicious and a really tasty iced chai latte with almond milk. My boyfriend enjoyed his Americano and one of their scrambles!

02:13 02 Jul 21

Great staff, great vibe in the cafe. Love the fresh food. But if your serving mimosas they shouldn't be in a plastic cup. How about a champagne glass?? Love that it's not over packed with people and comfortable

Such a cute little gem just several minutes away from the VA beach boardwalk. The selection of food choices and coffee styles were delicious, accommodating and easy to order. The staff was friendly and welcoming! So impressed by all the efforts taken by their team to abide by the CDC guildines as they offer outdoor and indoor dining options. My friends and I ate here for a late breakfast two days in a row because we loved it so much.read more

I meant to write this review a while ago, but regardless this place was amazing! Went here for breakfast in July, and their coVid preparation outside was excellent.
