Java Vegas is the Orlean's Coffee shop (not to be confused with the cafe) that replaced Seattle's Best and Kate's Corner. It is the place to go to for a quick cup of coffee in the Orlean's.
At first I was disappointed to see this Seattle's Best fold. I actually appreciate their coffee more than Starbuck's. But things happen. When I saw the Java Vegas sign at the Orlean's sister property: the Sun Coast, I was kind of concerned that I was in for inferior coffee. When I reached the counter, I saw the familiar Green Mermaid. In other words, Java Vegas is a glorified Starbuck's with a Java Vegas banner.
During my staycation at the Orlean's, I visited Java Vegas twice. With a location near the hotel registration lobby and surrounded by slot machines, people flock to Java Vegas. The first time there was a long line and the second time their was a wait for an available table. Java Vegas is well managed and the lines moved fast. The busy employees were friendly.
Although the tables fill up at Java Vegas, it is a decent size room that overlooks the casino. It is a room of tables and plush chairs that incorporates the space of the former Kate's Corner.
Java Vegas is more than coffee. They sell the traditional coffee cakes and bagels sold at Starbuck's. Just like Starbuck's, their bagel needs some work. But, Java Vegas has started selling Krispy Kreme doughnuts. And a delicious Krispy Kreme doughnut was a delicious compliment to yesterday's Cafe Americana.
Being a Las Vegas local, I could see Yelp check-ins at Java Vegas if I am in the Orlean's and need a caffeine boost. Its really a Starbuck's with decent prices and Krispy Kreme doughnuts.
