If you prefer not to buy your cup of coffee with sugared milk from a branded global business that doesn’t pay taxes and pays for its CEO to jet-commute 1,100 miles to work and back, then Java & Co in Abingdon is the place for you. Charming service with a smile, excellent coffee, good pastries, a clean loo and that feeling of being welcomed into the community all make this a relaxing place to sit and watch the world go by. It helps that the view out of the window is a charming piazza-style street scene, and it helps that you know they probably walk to work: pavement footprint rather than the obscene carbon footprint imposed by a single man in his jet in the USA as he sets about proving by means of carbon fuel-powered flight how ludicrous his mission statement is when it witters about “every cup… nurture[s] the limitless possibilities of human connection”. Give me the real human touch of an independent coffee shop any time, like Java & Co. Did I mention they're really nice and make great coffee?

My husband and I were in Abingdon for the weekend and fancied a coffee and a bite to eat. I have Coeliac Disease and have had a really pleasant experience with R&R next to Java but thought we'd try a different cafe. I went in and asked the nice young boy working behind the counter if they have any gluten free products, preferably savoury, he smiled politely and pointed to the 'usual' fudge brownies and carrot cake and I think was a flap jack and something else, but sadly no savoury. The Lady who was behind him, who might have been the owner, suddenly ranted at me saying "do you know how expensive buying in Gluten Free is?" And then told me in no uncertain terms it's more than £3 a small loaf and not worth her while!! I have never been spoken to like that in a small cafe shop before. We did have the carrot cake which was very nice, but it didn't stop there, when the waitress came out with the coffees and cakes, she told us we had to sit elsewhere because we were sat in the wrong place!! She wasn't even nice about telling us, even though I couldn't see any signs, the waitress then told us the chairs were colour coded green to match the cafe!!! Of course, we should have known that! We had to then sit in the full sun at I think 26 degrees instead of the shade. The next day my family came out with us, but we sat and had a drink in the other cafe as no way I would ever go back to Java again.

Our experience was awful. The staff were extremely rude. The coffee we were given was far too strong and too full to add milk but we were made to feel very awkward asking for more milk or a weaker coffee. The owner/manager then came over and proceeded to say that we were sitting obstructing the fire exit which was clearly not true as there was no fire exit notice on the door where they had actually placed the chairs we were sitting on in the first place. We won't be returning.

Our order got lost. After 25 minutes of sitting, a waitress asked 'What exactly are you waiting for?' she apologised and told us that the order ticket had gone missing. These things happen. After giving the order again, this was duly delivered to our table by the same waitress who was banged the drinks and food onto the table and refused to speak to us again. I think this must be the waitress who appears in some of the others reviews. Coffee and cake were good and mistakes happen and are excusable but rudeness is never acceptable. If the owner responds to this review - it was not busy when we visited, so you cannot use that as an excuse.

I used to have to visit Abingdon for work regularly but never had the chance to explore. As my wife and I were nearby we decided to spend a few hours looking around. We only needed a coffee and cake and there were a few options close to the pedestrianised area-glad we chose this one. Service was very good and cakes (some of which in a special offer were excellent. I thoroughly enjoyed my choice which I ate whilst reading the paper and waiting whilst my wife and a a quick look around the shops.

Tea and coffee ok but not supplied with teaspoons. The bacon butty was awful. Hardly any bacon and the tiny sesame roll was so dried out it crumbled to dust. So Stale and hard. Tiniest paper napkin and no knife, they insisted on adding the sauce. At least 3 staff trying to look busy but not one checked to see if the food was ok and avoided eye contact. I guess this explains why no one else was eating there.

After a long dog walk I arrived at Java to enjoy a medium Latte. On first tasting the Latte I felt that it tasted a little funny, so tried it again and it tasted like the milk was on the turn. I took the two Latte's back and explained to the lady behind the till that unfortunately I thought the milk wasn't right in the coffees. The immediate response was "there is nothing wrong with my milk. I said okay maybe it is the coffee and asked the member of staff to try them. I was told at this point that she didn't drink milk and that there was nothing wrong with her coffee either. The lady chucked the coffees down the sink opened the till and gave me my money back, followed by saying that the customer was not always right. I asked if I could speak to the Manager, to be informed that I was already speaking to the Manager. Terrible approach and will not return!

The outdoor seating is best at Java & Co, a place as recognised for its hot chocolate as tea and coffee.I enjoyed visiting; the staff are reasonably friendly, although it takes a bit of cajoling to get them to help you outside with your teas, once purchased!Sitting in the square, watching the world go by (especially on market Monday) is very good fun.Contactless payments at the counter are swift and painless.Price-wise, it's competitive in a town with plenty of options.

My partner and I have always been regulars at Java but lately have started to go elsewhere after several visits having cold coffee and being ignored at the till by staff. Often if you get there at 4 they are packing the tables away around you or if you try to order a coffee you feel ignored as they stand with their backs to you not even acknowledging you. Most of the time lately they hardly speak to you even when serving you. On our most recent trip we sat outside with no coffee for an hour after taking the first one back cold ( there were others in the queue waiting to have theirs heated up too) when the coffee came out to us one was half full and one three quarters, when this was mentioned the coffees were taken away with no comment and then we waited another half hour for a fresh one which was still not full. We have had cold coffee on several occasions but this was the first time we had taken it back as have always enjoyed Java but of late have been really put off the whole experience which is a shame. The change in staff has not been good for cafe. Also the staff smoke outside with the customers which does not look good either.

It has been a little while since I'd been in, maybe not since it was taken over. The staff and owners always used to be very friendly and welcoming. Maybe a one off but the staff this morning, after taking my order, pretty much ignored me. Did make my coffee but put it down without looking at me or saying a word and turned away. I said thanks but no acknowledgement or interest. Coffee was decent but surprised and disappointed in the staff attitude.

I love the refurbishment of the shop. It is classy and you can tell that they have carried this over to the food and drink with its upscaled presentation and attention to detail. It feels so much more comfortable and open. My only criticism is that there are no electrical outlets. Not sure if this is intentional. I would visit much more often if there was somewhere for me to plug up my laptop.

I have always ignored Java which is located in the town square in Abingdon as it has a rather unloved look about it. Recently, however, I popped in to get a quick coffee to go and once inside was attracted by the array of baked goods. The friendly Colombian woman who took my order told me that everything is homemade and not bought wholesale. Well that’s impressive for starters and so rare these days. I tried the Rose Pistachio cake which was a revelation. The coffee was really very good too. They have lovely crockery too which is a plus for me. There is limited seating inside and a lot of seating outside for nice days.

Not impressed with new decor or quality of either coffee or service. Between staff swearing openly & loudly in front of customers (particularly the girl with American accent) and the loss of communal feel, it's just gone downhill. The interior has lost it's cosy sense of community and independent coffee shop feel, the wooden cladding has been done poorly (and since being fitted, has been covered over with another bad fitting of wood) and the staff seem out of control. We will be moving our regular custom elsewhere from now on, having given the new owners a chance to settle in- A shame, but it really doesn't feel comfortable in there anymore.

Java is an,unhurried gem of a coffee shop, the kind of place that has queues stretchng into the market square whenever enthusiasts gather but will otherwise serve you immediately with a made-to-suit coffee that arrives hot and frothy with a wee bottle of milk on the side, When you grab one of the many titles off the rack, there's an hour to be whiled away in the afternoon sun or peering out from the window bar. Their cakes are not mass-produced, nor are their sandwiches so the menu can change frequently. it;s a warm and friendly place with ready smiles all round including those of Andrew and his staff.

Lovely coffee shop. Friendly staff. Quite efficient. Good range of drinks. Plenty of seats inside and out. Dog friendly. Clean and tidy, including the loo. Decaf coffee was great (which is a rarity!) Would definitely return. Only thing I’d say to improve is add compote...

I really love going to Java. The staff are all friendly, nothing is to much trouble. The choice of sandwiches, cakes and hot meals is very good. When in Abingdon,Java is my first choice for a coffee. Would recommend Java to family and friends.

what a great coffee shop. in a town with a lot of coffee shops this stands out. The coffee was ground to perfection dn I had a great full flavoured well rounded coffee. I also sampled the cakes and a pastry for one of my boys. all good value. overall a great experience and individual not trying to be something else. I will be back, regularly!!

Regularly visit Java before and after cycling with my cycling team. The staff are friendly and the coffee (flat white) is excellent and a large serving unlike other shops in the town.

Called in for a coffee to go today and chose Java as a change from one of the coffee chains. Friendly quick service and a lovely hot latte! Well priced too!

We visit this coffee shop regularly after doing ParkRun in Abingdon as you get 10% off with your barcode. It's a great coffee shop with plenty of outdoor seating, friendly staff and great coffee + cake; they also offer lovely milkshakes.The cafe inside is quite small but welcoming, they have a lot of homemade and local produce which is a great touch that places like Costa cannot offer. Based on our experiences I am happy to recommend a visit to this establishment and we always look forward to visiting on a Saturday.

Stopped here for coffee, tea & milkshake whislt awaiting a wedding nearby. Expensive for the milkshake @ £3.99 but it is expensive generally thereabouts. Nice outside seating area if you wanted that. Polite & attentive staff.

Really friendly and great service. Outside seating with lovely view. Delicious coffee and cinnamon bun. Other choices looked appetising too.

I regularly use Java when I am in the town centre. I love the coffee and food (particularly the Sunday Brunch) - and the view across the square. The service is always fast and friendly.

Foods always okay, and the steaks are quite good to be honest. Service from the staff is always polite.

Great food in generous portions at a respectable price, plus a choice of boutique and mainstream beers and ales. All in a warm traditional pub setting.
