Editorial Review for Lava Java – by Citysearch Editors

In Short
Lava Java is a refreshing, smoke-free medium between the more popular corporate and non-corporate coffee shops in Austin. Consequently, you're likely to see a variety of people: older professionals from nearby St. David's Hospital, who relax during a lunch break or wind down with friends or dates after a hard day, and younger college-goers who relax or study in the eclectic mix of furniture that includes antique ceiling fans and funky chairs.

Insider Tips

The Extras

Lava Java serves foods manufactured locally and local artists do all the displays on the walls.

Know Before You Go

Lava Java closes relatively early. So if you want to spend several hours studying or hangout, be sure to plan ahead.

What to Drink

The cafe serves coffee drinks, juices, fresh pastries, and old school bottled sodas. So if you're in the mood for RC Cola or Coke from a bottle, this is the place to go. Try their specialty, the cold brew iced coffee, served in the warmer seasons.

The people here are so nice. I usually pay with a credit card and don't tip, but they are so friendly when they see me time after time. I need to start getting cash out from the ATM to leave these guys some dough. They SO deserve it. The organic Peruvian blend coffee is wonderful. And, they have a great deal where you can gt a coffee and 2 breakfast tacos for a littl over $3.

Pros: friendly service, organic coffee, breakfast tacos
