Valley Java: Reviews & Ratings
Nice coffee shop in Castro Valley - the store has a bunch of really nice photographs, and tea and coffee gear for sale. They serve a bunch of different types of coffee & tea drinks & pastry - the cashier was super helpful and answered the questions we had before we placed our order.
The sweet couple who owns this spot are awesome. Known them since I was a kid their drinks are pricy(for me) but the service is amazing. It's a great quiet spot for some sweet solitude!
I stop by for morning coffee and a bite to eat in the mornings. It’s a friendly and classic cafe atmosphere. The coffee is delicious and the owners are so friendly. Love going there throughout the week!
Love this shop through and through. The owner helps out in the shop and makes this little place very local. Owner greets everyone and makes regular customers feel like a regular. New customers feel welcomed and always want to come back to visit. Quality drinks and food meets expectations. Vibe is so nice to chit chat with friends or just to chill out from a long week. Parking is minimal but there are free street parking. Always enjoy Vincent (the owner) showing great quality work ethic.
Great place. Same owner and great service for at 25 years! Always stop by when in Castro Valley. Great coffee, snacks, and actual news papers.
The service is fantastic!! Always get my ground coffee from here so I can enjoy a cup on the weekend. Such a convenient location and they always have a positive attitude when you walk in the door. I would definitely recommend trying Valley Java. I love supporting local businesses as well! Price and quality certainly beats quick and impersonal.
