The food at the Java House is pretty terrible, but the atmosphere, tea, large patio and cheap prices make up for it. The bad food seems to be due to every item, from sandwich to fajita, basically having the same cheap ingredients, which is probably why the prices are so low. For $9, you can get an entree, salad and pint of beer. That's one of the better deals you'll find in this city. This is a great place to go prior to going out to a bar or as a quiet spot to talk with friends. There's lots of room for large groups and there's a couple rooms to sit in. They also have a huge selection of tea and an all day breakfast for the day crowd.
