Whether its 5pm or 5am, need a quick snack or a drink? Or a meal? Or a chill? I've dined-in and did take-away a million times during my life here and between the delicious food and beverage options on their menu, to their old school (antique-relic decorof old-timey cereal boxes and antenna era TVs playing cartoons from the old days, the cereal bar (YUM!!! to the comfy boothsthat after a long night of DoorDashing its a bit too easy to order a yum yum and go snoozin' on hehe The best part of thisplace is THE FREE SPEECH ZONE where you can paint the walls with your imagination!!!

A gem of a cafe. Literally exceptional. The drinks are great and there’s ample variety. The foods are well made and easy to enjoy. But that’s just one dimension of the multidimensional experiences available at Java Break. There’s a “choose your own adventure” aspect to enjoying your order in-house, and I highly recommend making time to sit in any of the cafe’s rooms for a while.Also: Tip well, they deserve every cent! Kid-friendliness: There’s an area full of public artwork and some of the items among the incredibly beautiful collage of hand-drawn work are phallic and nipply in nature. It adds to the charm, imo, but if you are afraid of your kids seeing art like that then don’t let them mean...
The employees here are great and amazing, I've never had a bad interaction with them. I really enjoy the atmosphere. I miss the wi-fi slips, those were always fun. And without the slips, there's been some entitled people coming here and getting upset when they get told they have to pay to sit in a place of business. There's been some reorganizing and there's now a large shelf behind the service counter that is very distracting and off-putting. Pretty hideous. It seems like the employees are having trouble getting around it.
Java Break has a charming atmosphere, and was one of the first coffee shops I visited in Lawrence. Their baked goods are always fantastic, and I enjoy their sodas and seasonal apple cider. The service tends to be amazing, though I did get snapped at once by one of the employees for not speaking loud enough when ordering.

Love this place and the options they provide. Especially their nitro coffees! Wish they were open late like they used to be <3 Thank you Java Break for being an AWESOME hangout spot! Vegetarian options: Had options for nondairy folks! Dietary restrictions: Had options for nondairy folks!
I absolutely love this place! I moved to Lawrence in 2016 and have since moved away, but I make it a point to visit whenever I'm back in town. I always get their mocha chai with the mocha whip—it's fantastic! This place is truly special.
The drinks they offer are quite good, and their smoothies and scones are enjoyable as well. However, the staff often seem irritated by my presence.
Delicious beverages and pastries—-just like I remember from the mid to late 90s while at KU. Same owner and exceptional service persist.

LOVE IT. But they're vultures in the parking lot so beware.... they DO have cold brew.
One of if not the coolest coffee shops I've ever been to!
