It's always a precious feeling when I am here at cafe javas.. this is the boulevard branch just opposite the post office, Uganda. Great customer service, the best food and the atmosphere will always be top notch. Last visited here in 2022. Great coming back in 2023. Cafe javas for the tourists is a a must go to. Wooow I have a lot to say but let's leave it at this. Oohhh, the kids menu is

All franchise of cafe Java are so amazing.. It's bit costly but will definitely give you experience and taste like Europe or us... Place is so wide and sitting arrangements are so equally managed so that anyone can enjoy their food and drinks smoothly... Continuous cleaning process was good.. Their milk shakes are so thick that sometimes it'll be hard to get it through straw... Taste of the beverages were beyond level.. Even I got pure Jain pizza here in a non veg franchise.. Ambience was so good...

The place never disappoints with the food, service and ambiance. It's a very family friendly place that's good for grabbing a quick bite, enjoying a meal with friends, and meeting up with family. The menu is abit expensive but worth it as the food is very good and if you're into quality and quantity, you will definitely find it here. You won't go wrong with the drinks here especially the lemonade. Tried the peach lemonade and BBQ chicken wings and was definitely pleased

I like the ambience, customer service and location. I’m glad there seems to be consistency in each franchise. I like what Cafe Javas continues to offer. The best of the two entrees we had was the beef steak and mashed potatoes. The Nyama (meat lovers) pizza was a little disappointing - I feel the flavors didn’t really come together on that. The peach lemonade was not as peachy as I prefer. My sister’s Oreo milkshake was divine though. I enjoyed the peanut butter chocolate cake.

  • Shariful Islam

I was almost convinced going to KFC which is just beside it. Then the local guide insisted me going into this one. And I think it was a good decision. The environment is pretty good, very well lit and all. I ordered this chicken which was on cover of their menu and it was really delicious. I did not know Ugandans eat banana as their main food and, they gave us fried banana as side dish and it tasted really good. Well, the prices are a little more than I perceived

  • Wahab Kayondo

Talking about cafes @cafejavas is cool. The welcome appreciation you receive proves the desire to have meals there every day. The cleanliness of the place plus the soothing environment. Prices are relatively affordable matching with the class of the place and quality if the food provided that leaves you appreciating their service. Ample seating capacity. Equipped with washrooms to cater for clientele needs. To the Muslim community a prayer place available.

  • Ivan Mutumba

They have the best meals ever. It's a cozy standard exotic/fancy on an international level looks. i ordered Caribbean jerk chicken and it had the best fried chicken, and the fried banana Wow!! Amazing!! The mini salads and most of all the sauces accomping the meals, I mostly loved the dynamite sauce and the Harris sauce.And they have the best service and packaging for takeaway with those double compatiments it's unique amongest all restaurants in Kampala.

Café Javas CJ’s Kargen house is strategically located along Parliamentary Avenue. Quick service ( you don't have to sit for long to wait for your order to be ready) good customer care, always busy and congested except late hours of the night, ( but cool), No parking space. Suitable for chills as you wait for the Kampala evening traffic jam to clear!

I can only give 3 stars as there was just one meal and coffee - with more visits maybe it changes. The venue is bustling and perhaps a little loud but we'll appointed and modern. The selected dish was generous in size, well presented and well cooked for what it was. Coffee was very good - I ordered another after the first because it was so well done! Good service, good speed, would go there again.

  • Victor Barugahare

Almost every breakfast combination has eggs in it. Some of us don't eat, like eggs. So, I've always substituted eggs with either Home Fries or Gonja. I was shocked this morning when Silas told me "...its very impossible to even remove eggs..." from my order. Since you can't remove eggs from the order, I guess I won't be coming back!

CJ's remains a couple too many stars above most of the modern eating spots in town. What's always captivating is the quality of service by each and every staff that happens to serve you! The meal too was super delicious. Well done.

  • Isaac Wootton

A high end coffee house and restraunt in the heart of the city. They've made it a pleasant place to sit and talk while grabbing a bite and drink. Indoor and outdoor seating. Attentive waiters. Food came quickly. Clean. Well decorated. Prices are reasonable for this level of quality and service. I keep coming back, and enjoy it every time.

  • Marvin Nyanzi Ssentamu Kayanja

Very delicious dishes are served I liked the strawberry milk shake and the chicken pizza. A very nice hangout for friends and family at large for a cup of coffee and other delicious meals. My friends organised a surprise birthday party for me at this place and I enjoyed it. The staff sung me birthday songs and it was really wonderful.

  • Zurah Woods

Great customer service, location and ambience. A good spot to meet up with friends or have informal meetings. Good selection of food, including a breakfast menu, speciality drinks, lunch and many desserts. The prices are quite reasonable. It's worth a visit.

Great customer service, location and ambience. A good spot to meet up with friends or have informal meetings. Good selection of food, including a breakfast menu, speciality drinks and many desserts but very limited options for vegetarians or vegans. The prices are quite reasonable. It's worth a visit.

  • Josipa Prgomet

Very nice experience. Equal to Europe. I have drink cappuccino and eat Mexican chicken pizza. It was delicious. But, Waitress was a little putting pressure on us. Which is understandable, because they needed a place for another guests.

Located along Kampala road at the Kampala Boulevard, opposite the main post office, it is spacious, serene with great dishes and fast service. Parking may be limited due to its location in the CBD, but the place remains convenient and very affordable for anyone in the city.

  • ssengendo joseph

Nice food,I especially like their Chipotle pasta, it comes in big bow enough to feed you even have leftovers. This last visit I have noticed food prices where raised so if you still have an old menu on mind please add on at least 10k ugx per order to be on safe side.

  • David Anjichi

Good place... Service is super fast and the food tastes great enjoyed the chocolate smoothie. Just be cautious small additions on your order are charged separately.

  • Emmanuel Lusenji

Pros: Great service. Comfortable seats. Great meals. Cons: Can be quiet noisy (not ideal for when you want an ideal place to work). Mostly always full so getting an ideal seating place is not guaranteed. PS: Their iced coffee is amazing!

  • Sharon Eryenyu

Service was really quick. Challenge is it’s quite noisy…probably because it’s right at the city centre. They also have very few powers sockets so it’s not really suitable as a work space.
