I've been here plenty of times to complete schoolwork and meet up for group projects. Staff is very helpful when it comes to selecting different drinks to suit your needs. I'd like more of a food options especially since I'm there for hours at a time. Seating is spacious, which is important for group meetings. They accept reservations for groups. Could use more power outlets in the middle of the cafe, but other than that it's a great, clean, modern coffee shop. read more

Honestly was shocked at how good this place was when I first tried it!! Now I'm a regular, and even was able to find a drink similar to the typical drink I get at Starbucks (but Java makes it better). I love all of their espresso drinks, but the turtle latte is my all time favorite! read more

I can't get enough of Java Haute. When we're in town this is one of the first and last places we hit. The coffee creations are all tasty. From traditional lattes to more interesting creations, they've got you covered. We love the atmosphere and vibe as well. Now just a little note: we like our coffee scalding hot. If you do as well let them know as they tend to make drinks a tad on the cooler side. read more

Was recommended Java Haute by a local when I was in town visiting. I was not disappointed. I stayed for hours catching up on work and sampled a few different snacks and drinks. Fast wifi and lots of space. The interior is playful, warm and impeccably clean, it felt very welcoming. Solid sandwiches and the bakery items were absolutely delicious. I must have had 4 coffees in the few hours I was there. Really really good. read more

Great coffee shop. Menu has recently changed (in May 2019), so the food options are very different. The offer a salad in a mason jar now, which is actually very good and a hefty portion. WiFi is pretty stable, can be crowded right around 3-5 PM when the high school gets out, but it is an ideal place for studying and meeting. read more

The vibe was awesome. Definitely full with college kids all doing their own thing and getting some work done in an awesome space definitely aesthetically pleasing with also some amazing coffee and really really good treats. read more

Very friendly customer service. Nice local coffee bar and good place to study or catch up on some work!

Very friendly staff. Unique seasonal drinks. Great spot to work, read, or meet up with friends. My only complaint is that with all the windows, it gets SO COLD in the winter. Please turn up the heat! read more

Java Haute is a medium-sized cafe with two sides (an ordering side and an eating side) that don't look like they go together, which is too bad since they have an awesome mural on one wall. Despite the offset room, we had a great experience! When we got our medium espresso at Java Haute, it was a lot weaker than we're used to in Portland, OR (land of great coffee/espresso). Lucky for us, the people at the counter were so friendly! They offered to add an extra shot (which we offered to pay for), and they offered it free of charge, saying they strive to just make people happy with their drinks. Pretty awesome, right? And, the third shot was the charm! read more

Java Haute is a great place for coffee on the east side of Terre Haute. Very relaxed atmosphere and a great place to conduct meetings.

The coffee taste delicious but is extremely overpriced. I ended up paying around $8 for their lavender latte. Also it's fairly loud inside and gets very packed. read more

Java Haute - a quiche and a cup of coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Terre Haute, Indiana

Great study/work space in Terre Haute. Best seating in town for work and the food is pretty good. They make an amazing chai and their baristas are friendly. Use their back rooms or chill out in the open area. The WiFi is great and the atmosphere/lighting is very soothing. Bakery items are delicious. The drive through is for drinks and bakery items only so if it's lunch time, you have to come inside to eat. read more

Way better than Starbucks. The service was excellent and they said if I didn't like it I could get a new one free

In Terre Haute for business, came to Java Haute to get some work done. That need has been satisfied; now let me procrastinate a bit by giving you the pros and cons: Pros -free wifi (the signs request that you make a purchase in order to use it, but what kind of person goes to a coffee shop and doesn't buy anything?) -pleasant atmosphere...background music is quiet, and despite the fact that the place has been busy, it is not loud or chaotic at all. Lots of space between the various seating options (good for getting work done), cool ambience -coffee...both times I've been here in the last few days, the coffee has been nicely done. Not overbrewed, the subtler flavored come through -free refills on the brewed coffee!! Cons -the food was OK, but not spectacular. Had a Thai grilled chicken sandwich with veggies and humus for the side (if you order a whole sandwich, it comes with veggies, chips, fruit, kale and bean salad (or something like that), or side salad). Sandwich had real potential, but was on the dry side. Good ciabatta, good ingredients, just needed more of the sesame dressing. Veggies and humus are fine, just underwhelming. -location: seems a little junky on the outside, but then again, so does most of TH. Summary: Great coffee and ambience, OK food. I'd stick with drinks and baked goods! read more

Great people and great prices support local, highly recommended, dont sell yourself short on quality.

Good coff yum yum. Good food some coff to sweet tho but good yum yum yum yum coff go try it

I LOVE LOCAL!!! The staff is always friendly and helpful. I have been in several times. I have tried their coffee, smoothies, quiches, and scones. I have yet to be disappointed. The environment is also amazing as well as very clean. I've found this a great place to meet with friends, meet colleagues, or have quiet time to work on my Master's degree. If I could give them six stars, I would. read more

The best coffee in Terre Haute! This gem is so cute inside with great study space and an overall great atmosphere. The quiche was delicious too! Plus they leave cute little messages on the cups sometimes! This business made me smile the whole time I was there! read more

Java Haute - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Terre Haute, Indiana

This place. Wow So I've been a Starbucks person for my weekend coffee trips. Being all wild and crazy...my wife and I decided to stop into Java Haute. Incredible. This is by far my new favorite place to sip coffee. My wife usually gets a chocolate cake to go with hers...the exact name escapes me...and I go with the cinnamon coffee cake. Both are excellent. Since this is a coffee spot, I'll add the coffee is spot on! I love the atmosphere in this place. The art on the walls are a nice touch. The staff is super friendly. Go check it out! You won't regret it! read more

Java Haute - This made me laugh! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Terre Haute, Indiana

Really good coffee shop, and great location. Lots of seating. Baristas know their coffee and seem to enjoy helping you decide as well. Don't be hesitant to ask an opinion of what people are liking! A fairly quiet place to get work done! read more

I can't say enough good things about this coffee shop. I grew up in Terre Haute, and Java Haute has been one of my go to stops for over a decade. The coffee is AMAZING (I'm still dreaming about the holiday lattes). I also love the variety of food options, the relaxing and welcoming atmosphere, and the wonderful baristas. If you're in Terre Haute, you have to add this coffee shop to your must visit list! read more

This coffee shop is by far my favorite in Terre Haute. I order the cold brew which consistently has great flavor and a really smooth finish. I also occasionally get their food which is fresh and full of flavor. The environment is so great inside and there are so many great tables and places to work. As a college student, I come here all of the time to do homework and I LOVE this place. read more

$0.50 for ice water from the tap???? They don't have that listed anywhere and they don't tell you until you've paid. That's ridiculous. Then my order of soup and sandwich arrives. Looks pretty good. Then I lift my sandwich up to eat and it falls out of my hands. I see there's almost no bread on the bottom. Hidden...on the bottom....is a shriveled hard heel of bread. I cannot believe people would serve this and on top of that knowingly hide the teeny bread on bottom. Rude read more

Java Haute - Tiny piece of hard bread! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Terre Haute, Indiana

Clean and fun inside, decent food and drinks. Best coffee shop in Terre Haute, although honestly the competition isn't fierce.

Java Haute is my favorite coffee shop in the area. I've been spending long days working and studying here since before they expanded back in 2011, I think. The service here is excellent. The baristas are friendly and talented. They always have a recommendation if you aren't sure what you want. They are great at getting to know their regulars and making guests feel welcome. This place gets pretty busy, and you'll frequently see students here studying, groups doing bible study, and others having work meetings. The free wifi is a nice perk, but I suspect many people would still use it as a work/study location even if not. They do reserve tables, especially for larger groups, so that's really nice! I was so excited when they started serving food; the menu has changed a few times but I've never tried anything I didn't like. The Urban Farmer and Greek breakfast sandwiches are so delicious! My favorite sandwich is the Baked Potato Grilled Cheese, but the Tavern Ham Orchard is also really good. There is usually a small wait for food, but it's definitely worth it! I don't recall ever waiting more than 10-15 minutes for food, even when they are super busy. The Turtle Mocha is my favorite drink, rivaled by the Bee's Knee's Latte they just started serving earlier this year. The Turtle Mocha tastes just like you're drinking a chocolate turtle, and it's great in both hot, frappe, and iced forms. Java Haute is a great place to take a bit of work or a good book, enjoy a great meal or some coffee, and relax for a bit. read more

I lived in Terre Haute for almost 2 years and I loved Java Haute. The coffee is always great, the interior has an eclectic vibe, and the food is tasty too. I recommend the Mac and cheese muffin! read more

I used to love coming into Java to grab a coffee, do homework, have a meeting, or just hang out in the fun atmosphere. The service my boyfriend and I received yesterday along with the improper orders written on the cups makes me question future business there. The young girl taking our order and checking us out had the worst attitude and acted like we were inconveniencing her. Mind you, the place was busy, but there was no line in front or behind us when we arrived. She treated us like we were stupid for my boyfriend, a first time customer, not having the menu memorized. She continued to treat me like I was an imbecile for not knowing that the "tap to pay" method wasn't working. The quality of our orders was also completely subpar as to me excellent previous experiences. The coffee was definitely old and tasted sour compared to normal. As someone who has worked in customer service and food service for years, I am disappointed. I've been a long time customer of JH and I recommend it to everyone. However, I will not be going back anytime soon. read more

I was in Terre Haute for a week and visited this coffee shop multiple times before and after work. It seems to be a popular study spot for high school and college students. The wifi is free, the coffee is bottomless, and the shop stays open late, so I can see the appeal. There are plenty of tables and some of them are communal. When we went after work, I noticed some of the bigger tables were reserved, so finding an empty spot might be a challenge in the evenings. Be prepared to share a table or have a backup plan if you go here for a work meeting during peak hours. read more

Tasty and fresh coffee every time. Have had several different breakfast options - always scrumptious. Now serving lunch too. It's a great, clean place with cozy and inviting atmosphere read more

Java Haute looks pretty sketchy on the outside, but once you walk in, it's a cute little cafe. They have a drive through and places to sit inside. I ordered the latte with vanilla and honey in it. I usually drink black coffee, but the cashier recommended it. It was sweet but I could still taste the coffee flavor. I have also had their mango iced tea which is refreshing. The furniture and art on the walls is fun to sit in and look at, respectively. I would have loved to sit in the booths, but they were all taken when I went. It looks like a quaint little place to do homework if you live by the nearby colleges. read more

Yes! What a wonderful little spot! I will come here again and again! What they do Right: 1) Indiana-made products! 2) Great partial-wall separated work space - would be amazing for a casual meeting space. 3) Outlets readily available for working at other seating locations. 4) Smoothies 5) Having non-coffee options! Room for Improvement: 1) The food side of things are not in operation on Sunday which is a major bummer. I understand if that crew needs a day off but maybe if some make-ahead materials could be made that could be stored in the refrigerated case and then just heated up by coffee staff - something like quiches or egg sandwiches - I would much prefer to patron this establishment than Starbucks. 2) I would like to see some recycling options. read more

Visiting Terre Haute for 5 days and Java Haute quickly became a daily must-stop. The space is open and inviting with plenty of good seating for a variety of occasions: studying solo, chatting with friends, business meetings, etc. there's even a partition to allow for more private group study. The coffee is good and they have a couple solid vegan breakfast options (house made granola with soy milk or bagel with peanut butter and jelly). The employees are super friendly and they often start orders by memory when they see regular customers walk in the door. I can't believe I never came here when I lived in the area in the past. I look forward to coming back during future visits. read more

I still like Java Haute a lot. It's kinda out of my way to get there because of where I live and where they are, but I make an effort to go there anyway. They are always friendly despite the fact that they are always really busy. It's kind of a gathering place for friends to meet and people who have business to meet and get to work. Free WiFi allows those who have computers, iPhones and Android devices to connect to the internet and get some work done that way or play on sites like Facebook or other sites. Talking to the gals at the counter who were working that day was kinda fun because we talked about different stuff. The last time that I was there, it was cloudy and seemed rather dark inside even though they have large windows to let in the light. I sat at the counter by the window and looked at the newspaper reading some selected articles that interested me this time. I ordered a vanilla latte which was really good, and a flourless chocolate cake which was dark chocolate, had a rich chocolate flavor and was like eating fudge. It was really good and I liked it so much. I wanted to stay longer, but since I had stuff to do, I couldn't stay as long as I wanted. Still, I like Java Haute. read more

My favorite coffee spot in the Wabash Valley. Tasty coffee and great selection of pastries. Stop in and have lunch as they have a great selection of sandwiches and the grilled cheese is very gooey :). Free wifi and nice indoor setting read more

Ahhh my favorite coffee spot in town. Starbucks is mud water compared to Java. My usual is the bees knees and the cranberry orange muffin. All their food is made from scratch! Delicious read more

What a great space! There is tons of room to sit with groups or to study alone. There are plenty of outlets to use as well. The staff was very friendly and very helpful. We came as a group of 5 and had a couple different types of beverages. We had 2 of the Java Chips Frappes which I'm told were good but there were no chips in it. Our party also had an Iced Chai Tea Latte, an Iced Mocha, and an Iced Caramel Macchiato. The mocha and the macchiato were quite sweet! Good, but next time I would do and extra shot of espresso and less pumps of syrup. We got a refill of tea and those were quite good! We didn't have any of the food but it did look good and I'm told that the smoothies are good! Next time! read more

I'm honestly surprised at how highly rated Java Haute is, because frankly, the coffee here is very average. It's not bad, but it's nothing special. It is one of the only local coffee shops in Terre Haute though, so I guess when you don't have any competition, average is acceptable. The past two times I've been here, we went through the drive thru on our way home to Indy and our lattes were luke warm. This also happened the last time we went inside for a drink, which is odd. On my most recent visit to the Haute, I opted for an iced chai tea since I was weary of receiving another cold latte. Their iced chai teas are okay, but honestly taste like the stuff out of the box that can be purchased at Kroger. I'm not sure what roaster supplies their coffee beans, but I assume it's not sourced from a local Indiana roaster because they don't advertise that information anywhere on their website. I'm normally all for supporting local coffee shops over Starbucks, and have a favorite coffee shop in nearly every neighborhood of Indy. However, I'll probably stick with Starbucks on future trips to Terre Haute to play it safe. read more
