Java the Cup just opened in Wingate, and it is a breath of fresh air. I have been a student at Wingate for over two years now and this is a very welcome addition. They are serving up crepes, waffles, coffee, espresso drinks, and an assortment of smoothies and sodas to drink. They even have sandwiches, wraps, and salads too. The service is good and atmosphere is great. While the crepes and espresso still need to be improved, the waffles and house coffee, "java," are awesome! I have been in to the shop 3 times now and haven't had a negative experience. So far I have had the following:
*Banana and Nutella crepe, which was good but the crepe was overcooked. 7/10
*Waffles, both with banana, strawberries, Nutella, and whipped cream: 10/10!!
*mocha latte: pretty weak on both espresso and mocha flavor compared to many other places I've been. Came back recently with my friend and she got the mocha, and it was a similar experience. 5/10
"Java": strong, even-bodied coffee with good flavor. One time near closing they made a fresh pot for me because the one they had was there for a while, excellent service! 9.5/10!
Definitely will continue coming here, I just hope they can maybe make the espresso stronger in their lattes! So far the fresh coffee, customer service, and atmosphere are what makes this place great read more
