About Us

Java Bean Café proudly serves the Claymont Community and surrounding areas by offering specialty coffees and teas, artisan pastries, and chef-inspired menus.

Whether you're "on the go" or taking time to relax, come out to brunch on the weekends with your family, gather with colleagues for meetings, or enjoy a meet-up with friends.

Java Bean Café started with a conversation between two, long-time friends, Mariana and Kathy, who love great coffee and delicious food. After sharing their idea with Calvin and Joe, they looked for a community in need of a coffee shop where they could provide a warm, relaxing atmosphere.

Calvin Cheng is a professional chef with 15+ years of experience. A graduate from the Art Institute of Ft Lauderdale's Culinary Arts Program, Chef Calvin's dishes have graced many tables in Ft Lauderdale, FL; New York City, NY; Cherry Hill, NJ; and Philadelphia, PA. With his focus on Asian Fusion, he's known for his work at Seasons 52, Susanna Foo's, and Starr Restaurants.

Great small business restaurant in Claymont,DE with many varieties of healthy options menu with very affordable prices. I had the blackened shrimp over rice, the meal was amazingly delicious! I also had the lavender latte which tasted rich and robust.

The cutest little cafe I ever did see. This amazing little breakfast and lunch spot is run by the sweetest people. Their food is phenomenal and we always make it a point to stop by on our way to DC from Philly. Great pastries, breakfast and lunch sandwiches with Asian flair, and morning beverages. Be sure to stop by if you’re in the area!

Food here is a secret. I got the Korean Sammy and it was DELICIOUS. Locals were saying all the food is a must try so I’ll definitely be back. Iced latte was AMAZING. I asked for not too sweet and she made it perfectly
