Java Jive - Atlanta

Came here on 2.12.22 Definitely a good experience here. Service was so fast and they give you plenty of food.. It is a cash only establishment...... So know before you go. They do have an ATM if you dont have cash.... Chris was really nice. This is a swanky place.. Old days vibe.. Nice vibe.. Real quiet and peaceful.... Check this place out.. Get the pancakes

We stayed at the hotel across the street and decided to try this place. Very welcoming waiter with good communication about the menu and their covid protocols which I liked.The buttermilk pancakes were amazing!! The orange juice was on point!!I got the Santa Fe scramble with cheese grits and potatoes. The scramble was really good and seasoned great. Didn't try the potatoes but im sure they were delicious. Now the biscuit was cute shaped in a heart; however it fell below my expectations of a good biscuit since thats what they are known for.Make sure you have cash or use the atm by the bathroom.

We decided to visit this place because it was directly opposite our hotel and we like to support non-chain restaurants. we visit atlanta by michigan and had really enjoyed the quality of the services we had received in any restaurant we were until we came here. When we came to the place, we were greeted by this girl, which seemed like she didn't know how to talk to us or if she wanted to be special. then we wanted to wait outside until a stain opened. we were a group of 2. that seemed good until a group of 3 came behind us and everyone sat immediately. surprised by this, we went in and mentioned it, we were sat by a nice older man. but when we saw another group, we immediately sat in the knowledge that there were a few outside waiting and saw that they were many open places that we decided to go. it seemed very clear that they played favorites. we have very little tolerance for discrimination and we no longer wanted to stick to it. the place smelled bad, and the selection of food was minimal. we were in a series of restaurants in alanta and that was the worst experience we had.

Java Jive is a treasured gem of ATL. Consistent, old time breakfast. The service is great, food is so so good, and the pies are next level! Cannot recommend enough for a reliable breakfast spot. Great take out and don’t forget, cash only! If needing, a reliable desert spot do not sleep on the pies !!

In from New Orleans for a concert staying at Hotel Clermont so pleased to find this diner right across the street. It’s like stepping into another time! The decor is precious, the food is delicious (always grateful for vegetarian options the staff very accommodating. A gem!
