A great place to go for a special treat, especially now in winter! Cute and comfy atmosphere with tasty drinks and snacks. Service is friendly and sweet. It's in a nice part of town, good to pop in after some holiday shopping. To be expected, a bit on the pricey side so I only come once in a while. If you've never been here, you should definitely check it out! read more

Jenn's is super cute and comfortable. I had the opportunity to visit on 2 separate accounts, a weekday morning and Saturday midday. Atmosphere wise, very homey and relaxed. I preferred my visit on a weekday morning simply because it was less crowded and less busy; Saturday was packed including a chess tournament going on. On both visits I ordered a peppermint latte "for here" and was served in a big mug with just the right amount of peppermint and milk froth. I had a few of their pastries which I believe are made in house including the sugar cookie (decorated as Mr. Narwhal from the movie Elf) and the oatmeal chocolate muffin. My friend had the breakfast burrito with salsa and sour cream options added on, he said it was ok at best with too much sauce. Overall, pretty good spot with lots of natural light to either chill or get some work done. Anyone looking for a down home relaxing coffee shop in Manitowoc needs to make their way over to Jenn's. read more

Stopped in for a quick coffee and was back on the road. The gentleman that helped me was very nice and then made my coffees. The inside of the cafe was very welcoming and comfortable. I hope to stop in again be for leaving town and enjoying my coffee there. read more

Nice little coffee shop located in downtown Manitowoc. Has all the drinks you would expect to see in a Barista operation like this at a reasonable price. Good saftey protocols being followed relative to Covid with good separation between the tables. Overall a great choice to enjoy your morning Java in a safe environment. Two thumbs up. read more

Pleasant coffee shop with good coffees and lots of natural light in an expansive space. Bakery goods are quite tasty. Ideal location for sipping in solitude, enjoying a coffee with friends, are sipping while getting some work done. Also an enjoyable place for meetings. Moderate prices, but they do charge a credit card swipe fee (including on Apple Pay). read more

Excellent local coffee shop discovered in the heart of Manitowoc's downtown. We visited as a group of 200 convertibles on a tour and were pleased to find: --Delicious beverages. It's a coffee shop. That said, the menu contained a bevy of wonderful creations. It's such a delight to see and take in a menu for coffee that's not standard! --Wonderful retail. This is a great place to shop for a little gift. For others or for yourself! We spotted unique, handmade soaps, candles, knitted goods, and other fun items to peruse. --Exceptional service. It's probably not every day this coffee shop gets bombarded with 400 visitors staggered in waves over a single morning. They were well-prepared, friendly, and handled us with grace, style and good humor. We had a lovely visit and will return! read more

Groovy cafe/bakery/restaurant/gift shop near downtown Manitowoc. Best parts, IMHO, are the coffee and the pastries which Jen herself makes on site. Lots of seating, mellow music, free wifi... I'm a regular. read more

Clean, ok prices. Quiet place to meet friends. Not amazing food or drinks, but very nice people. Bakery items are super cute to look at, but nothing special to eat. read more

It can be more of a friendly environment with staff. Prices are a little above average.

We went on a Wednesday morning on our way out of the area. It wasn't busy at all; there were a few people seated already and enjoying their drinks, but there was no line. I ordered a large plain latte, and my friend got a small hot chocolate (both to-go). Both were really good, although they were definitely steamed on the hotter side. The girl that took our order was friendly, but she was a bit soft spoken. We struggled to hear her, but I understand that could be for a number of reasons. My only real issue is that there didn't seem to be a menu posted anywhere. We understood that they would have any "typical" coffee shop drink, so ordering wasn't too much of an issue for us, despite this. The building itself was really cute. They have lots of things for sale, such as baked goods and T-shirts. If I ever find myself in Manitowoc again I'd definitely stop in again and stay for a while! read more

Jenn's Java - Large Latte, Small Hot Chocolate - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Manitowoc, Wisconsin

I just wish the price I was charged was the same as in the menu (not more). I gotta believe this could have been a better review if the guy behind the counter handled it better. read more

This is a huge coffee shop, so if you're coming to hang, it's the place to be. For good ole fashioned coffee or sugary/flavored lattes, it's the place to be. I just wanted an espresso with some foamed milk on top, but it was a little bit of a tall order. I got the macchiato, but the espresso was in over abundance and it was pretty wild tasting! Good selection of baked goods - which I think is a high point - but again, lots of sugar and added ingredients. Seems like a wonderful family business for the community, which I really appreciate! Good prices and coffee, but espresso isn't their strong suit. read more

A good place for coffee and tea. They also have a variety of baked goods for your sweet tooth. There is usually a soup offered. Free WiFi and a variety of books, magazines and games to entertain you while you're sipping away the time. Seems to be very popular with millennials. As there are usually a lot of young people there using their computers. A very comfortable place to spend some time. read more

I like there frappes and they have nice merchandise. A good coffee place vibe. Their service is lacking

Its always a treat coming here. I typically get something new every time i go and haven't been dissapointed. Wonderful cheesecake and other baked goods. I skipped dinner tonight so i got to try the stuffed green pepper soup. Great taste and huge portion! Great time to catch up with friends and use wifi! read more

Jenn's Java - Peeps coffee. Yummy and fun - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Manitowoc, Wisconsin

Hate this place. Coffee is not for true coffee drinkers. Favored towards teens and hipsters.

Great service, friendly faces, amazing menu items! The enviroment is chill and relaxed, the perfect place to work on schoolwork to to read a book! read more

Went for the first time with a friend! Great atmosphere and friendly service :) Loved that they had options for seating (couches, table and chairs and bar type seating along the window). read more

They make my dad's birthday cake every year and it is always amazing. I have also been there to eat with my friends and they had good food as well! There is a cute little shop inside that has lotions, perfumes, aprons and such too. Wonderful view of Washington park from the windows. read more

Jenn's Java is place where you can sit with a good cup of coffee or for a Red Eye, have any one of the sweets that are placed near you when you walked in. Interesting the sweets are not placed in a way to get in the way of the enjoyment of the coffee experience. I walked in a bad mood, and needed a good cup of coffee. I needed a strong cup of coffee and that's what I got. The Red Eye was made with care for detail and great conversation of coffee. Jenn's Java is not the run of the mill coffee in and out's that litter the streets. Jenn's Java is the way it should be. Come in enjoy some coffee, talk to people, relax, and leave wanting more.. . Knowing I will come back! read more

Outstanding Quality coffee and food I had the rice and chicken soup Yummy ! You can just come in and have a quiet clean place to sit WIFI is free Thank You read more

I LOVE JENNS JAVA!!! Amazing drinks, bakery. I just wish that they also had soy milk besides almond milk because of me being Lactose intolerant. I prefer the soy milk in my coffees and drinks over almond milk. read more

superb coffee stuffs awesome staffs nice place to relax and enjoy some good food stuffs and good coffee read more

Good food. Wonderful atmosphere to hang out with friends. Unique gifts, many homemade options. Love this place!!!

Jenn's Java is little coffee shop located in Manitowoc. It is a perfect place to go to either catch up with friends, work on your computer or both. It has a lot of bakery items which always tend to be delicious. Jenn's Java also has some of the best smoothies! The smoothies have two options. They can be made with Greek yogurt or ice cream. There are several different flavors to choose from. I personally think that the smoothies made with ice cream are better than those made with Greek yogurt. It's also on the expensive side but you get a bigger cup for the price. If you haven't been to this place, I would definitely check it out. I have always had pleasant experiences here! read more

Jenn's Java is a great place to meet with friends & family for a great coffee drink, also the sweets are delicious. I and my friends try to meet every Sunday there. We have never been disappointed, the staff is friendly and calls us by name. Today I picked up a order I placed for a special occasion (Rice Crispy Bars) Jen cuts them and wraps them individually. There are so many favorites I have had. I would recommend that everyone should try Jenn's Java. Thank You Jen and Aaron and all your staff. Sincerely Connie K. read more

It's ridiculous that they won't give you the WiFi password unless your whole table buys something. And even then, they have to verify it. Lmao just trying to do my homework with my friends. read more

This is my absolute favorite place to go for peace and quiet with good food. Jenn's Java always has an amazingly friendly environment and they give you your space to be there by yourself once you are done ordering your food. I always take a window seat by an outlet and then I'm able to work with a great view and easy access electricity! I feel that if I had to pick from all of the coffee places in town I'd immediately pick Jenn's! Thank you for your great hospitality and good food! read more

My favorite coffee shop! My friends and I have been going there since high school. Now we are married and some of us have children. Great for all ages. Welcoming atmosphere. With free wifi, it's a good place to come and study and get work done. Owners are local Manitowocians and are very nice. Games and cards available and sometimes movies are shown and Wii is played. I would recommend Jenns Java to everyone! read more

Great espresso and I had a southwest chicken wrap which was a delicious. Excellent atmosphere... Nice place to relax!

My husband and I recently moved to Chicago from Two Rivers. When we lived in the area we visited Jenn's Java several times a week . Since moving we have not found a place we love to go to as much as Jenn's Jave Cafe. They have the best coffee, americano's, the best sugar cookies which are beautifully and artistically decorated, the best cheese cake, lemon bars, cake pops, ooie gooie bars, carmels, christmas cookies, peanut butter balls, I love it all. I have had cakes made, sugar cookie birthday baskets, Christmas cookie trays and more. We have never been disappointed. They also have wonderful hand crafted items for gifts such as scarfs, blankets, pajamas, jewelery etc. Jenn and Aaron are great (the owners) and we miss Jenn's Java very much, as well as Joette (who makes some of the beautiful crochet items) If you live in the area you are missing out if you have not been to Jen's Java. I highly recommend visiting again and again and again. Sincerly Christine and Jan Ettrich read more

Jenn's is a great coffee shop plenty of seating, tons of board games and other fun games available for play, and good coffee and expresso. However I was disappointed with their menu! They offer almost no vegetarian options!! They did have a vegetable plate with carrots, broccoli &... which was fine, but that was about it aside from muffins or cookies! I'll defiantly be back there, I will have just eaten before! So in conclusion great place to meet friends for Coffee and have a fun hangout!! read more

Fabulous bakery especially the rhubarb crumble. Coffee latte was excellent and the service was warm and friendly. Everything is homemade and made from scratch including the soup! Charming Americana kind of place that deserves your patronage! read more

Had a Chai Tea Chiller and Fruity Pebbles Krispie treat and it was delicious!

As a regular visits for years, This has become our favorite go-to place for all special occasions. Friendly owned and operated, they have a wide array of delicious selections. We will be back. read more

Extremely rude and unfriendly! I love coffee houses and would never go there again. No grace for cold kids trying to eat their packed lunches from a field trip. We were all in the process of ordering hot cocoa and coffee and were kicked out because of their packed lunches. Just sad to see after explaining the circumstances of our kids. read more

Delicious, fresh baked goods and tasty lattes. Great atmosphere with sofas and tables. Friendly staff! So glad we stopped here!

I absolutely love it here! The staff is super friendly. The treats are amazing. Best cheesecake in town! I love that they have games available for their customers and a cute little craft store. My favorite place to grab a cup of coffee and relax! read more
