Cup O’ Jo Café

The loud pop-rock and overly colorful decor make it hard to chill and relax here. I would suggest switching to a more subdued color scheme and perhaps some jazz at a lower volume. Also, some of the seats give you no convenient place to put down your coffee. I'm referring specifically to the leather sofas in the corner on the right when you enter and are facing the counter. Every seat should have a place to put down a cup of coffee that is at a convenient height. The coffee itself tasted fine.

I have to agree with JasmineS’s review: the service for food is so SLOW!! I waited about 20 minutes for a sandwich (even though I was the only customer) and was late for an appointment as a result. I’d like to keep coming back since food and ambience are good, but the staff need to pick up the pace first.

Me encanta la atención y tranquilidad para beber un café y conversar. Muy bueno.

Everything is amazing. Seriously. I have been coming herenfor many years, sunce they first opened their doors. They have consistently delivered excellent service, excellent food, and excellent drinks. I make it a point to visit a while every time I come to Ithaca. I do encourage people to be patient when it gets busy here: they usually have a small staff on duty and if you come during a rush, you will just have to wait. Remember, this isn’t some big corporation! It’s owned and operated by members of the community, for members of the community. Try them out and enjoy your visit, you will NOT regret it!

Their food is gross and the staff is awful.

Cozy little cafe with attentive staff, excellent pastries, and delicious drinks. I'm definitely coming back here again.

Cozy little spot with wi-fi and comfortable seating to relax and enjoy some coffee while chatting with friends or doing some work. The coffee was tasty and Naomi was very friendly and talked with me for a little while. She also has excellent music taste. Be sure to visit her new location when they open up in Endicott!
