Java Junkies — Restaurant in Umatilla

Update 1/21/2023: They seem to have a lot of new staff and that has resulted in less quality. The customer service isn’t as great and the coffee and other items just aren’t as good or well put together, much less consistent. They’ve also raised their prices a significant amount, which combined with the poor service just has me avoiding it more and more. Really bummed out because I used to LOVE this place! They’ve also shortened their open hours so that doesn’t help either.

My favorite coffee place. They’re always consistent with the quality and how they craft their drinks. I have a specific way I order my coffee and it’s perfect every time - regardless of which barista makes it or what time of day or how busy they are. I also really enjoy using their app to order ahead so it’s ready when I get there.

The hot foods aren’t gourmet or anything, just simple stuff. They have good bagels. And my husband enjoys their burritos. The sandwiches aren’t great, just cheaper meat and bread. And I wish they had more locally made pastries/muffins.

But this is a coffee shop, so I’m rating based on the fabulous coffee and...

I ordered a sandwich for lunch through their website. It was ready at the time I'd requested.

Pros: The sandwich was loaded with veggies, not overloaded with condiments, and it had a reasonable amount of chicken and bacon on it. The variety of veggies was impressive (spinach, lettuce, cucumber, cabbage, etc.). It was colorful, flavorful, and relatively filling.

Cons: The bread fell apart easily where a hoagie or sub roll would have been much more robust. The chicken seemed to be all thigh meat (like pre-cooked, frozen, reheated type). Even though there was a good amount, it seemed to be rubbery and low-quality. The bacon was a precooked product, so it was just floppy instead of crispy.

This was an amazing $10 sandwich. Unfortunately, after the service charge ($.50) and tip ($2.00), it was really an $18.35 sandwich. For that price, it just wasn't a purchase I'd recommend.

The are many other establishments to get more food, of the same quality, for either the same price or a few bucks less. It wasn't a bad sandwich, it just wasn't a...

so i went there for lunch and ordered one of there wraps called the valkyrie from what i read on the menu it was suppose to have all the meats on there, and what i got qas probabaly 2 or 3 slices of meat and the rest was veggies i spent 14 bucks on thos thing and didnt even get what was really promised. makes me miss there old sandwhiches like the viking now that was good. this wrap is a joke, if i wanted to krder the side salad i would have but i guess i got it anyways in the form of my wrap instead., but the upside is this, the morning staff are wonderful people they are genuinly nice and rrspectful, they are quick and polite,also welcoming...
