Since 1999, Java Hut on Coast Highway in Encinitas has been serving coffee drinks and snacks to the surfer crowd. During the pandemic, they decided to close and completely remodel. The results are amazing. Fran and I stopped in one Saturday after our beach walk, and were happy we did.
The old Java Hut was dark, with old tables and not much ambience. The new Java Hut is like a restaurant makeover from Robert Irvin on Restaurant Impossible. Beautiful new tables and chairs, lots of wood and surfer memorabilia, and an outside covered patio in front. The surfer theme is displayed in the front part of the building. It looks like a wave. To go with the new decor, is a new and upgraded menu.
We just had coffee. It was very good, but they have much, much more. Smoothies, avocado toast, fruit and granola, lots of egg dishes, including breakfast burritos. I hope they improve the service, though. It's a little slow, but hopefully it will get better.
Next time you're out for a stroll in Encinitas and need a coffee pick me up or some good breakfast or lunch food, give Java Hut a try. I think you'll like it.
