🍳😤 WE HAVE BEEN COOKING.

And we mean that literally. 👀🔥

We’ve been in the kitchen testing NEW, seriously craveable menu creations for fall—and we’re getting VERY close to dropping them. 🍂🤤

First up: Hot Honey Spicy Chicken & Waffle 🍗🧇 — crispy, sweet, savory, spicy, and finished with a drizzle of hot honey. 🍯🔥

And that’s just the beginning. We’re building the rest around our new spicy chicken, spicy sopressa, fiber-rich ingredients, hearty grain bowls, and soft, chewy ciabatta rolls. 🥪🥗✨

We’re putting the finishing touches on everything now…

Coming VERY soon. 👀🍂

Do you have your tickets yet? 🎟️

Join us Wednesday, August 26 from 4–8 PM in Iowa City Downtown District for an evening of tasting local, sipping local, and celebrating the food scene that makes our community so unique. ❤️

Stop by Downtown Java House and get ready to sample an assortment of our NEW NYC-Style Half Baked Cookies — thick, soft-baked, ridiculously gooey cookies with a decadent, almost-underbaked center. 🤤🍪

We’ll also have some of our Java House classics, including Scotcharoos and Rice Krispy Treats, all made right here in our Downtown bakery. 🧁✨

And because dessert is better with coffee… ☕️😉

We’ll be serving up iced coffee, summerberry green tea, and Classic Lemonade from 4–8 PM!

Your ticket gets you a taste of the desserts coming out of our local bakery — and who knows… 👀 If you all love these Half Baked Cookies as much as we do, maybe they’ll have to make a permanent appearance at Java House!
