A Virginia Highlands staple for 17 years, The Java Jive Café is a nostalgic breakfast spot that features memorable 1950s-era artwork and a dining room adorned with antique kitchen appliances. The menu offers a variety of egg dishes, waffles, biscuits, gingerbread and Java Jive's famous pancakes. Seasonal pancake flavors are a menu highlight; autumn's flavor is pumpkin. Java Jive's coffee is available by the pound, and the restaurant features free Wi-Fi.
