Java Jones — Restaurant in Monticello

If you haven’t had the bomb Fit Protein Coffee from Java Joe’s, are you even living right? This stuff hits harder than an Iowa blizzard in January. I took one sip and suddenly felt like I could bale hay, run a 5K, and organize a church potluck—all before 10am.

Java Joe’s is that cozy little spot where your boots don’t feel out of place, the coffee’s strong enough to wake the corn, and the staff makes you feel like family (the good side of the family, not the weird cousins from Cedar Rapids).

If you’re in Monticello and need a caffeine kick that doubles as a pre-workout, stop in and say hi. Just be warned: after a bomb Fit coffee, you might end up painting your barn, fixing the combine, and signing up for a CrossFit class named after a tractor.

God bless Iowa and God bless Java...

I love there lotus energy and they have some pretty good food items. I love the week staff they are very friendly and welcoming when you enter the building they greet you and are good with talking and taking orders they are always polite when handing our drinks over and bringing out our to go food. I wasn't very pleased with the weekend staff as they didn't seem very thrilled and not very welcoming when I received my drink there was zero interaction it was set down on the counter she gave me a look and walked away when then the person I was with drink came up after mine and she announced it aloud that there drink was ready and gave them a nice smile and a nice see ya later. I'll for sure try to be back during the weekdays will...

I spent $28 for a small breakfast item, bagel and Java drink, when the door dash person brought my stuff my coffee drink spilled on the ride and she explained that she asked the woman who gave her my order for a drink holder and she was told NO, flat out NO. Apparently you can’t get a 3 cent drink holder unless you have 2 drinks or more?!?!? So is that Java jones policy or the creepy woman working that morning? All I know is the door dash person tried to make sure my drink wouldn’t spill on its way to me but the witch working the register today made sure that didn’t happen. I will never get anything from this over priced Java jones joke of a business ever again just because they obviously don’t care about...
