My barista Danielle was very friendly and made me an amazing drink- thank you
My morning coffee is always on point, and the baristas are all super nice and willing to help you.
The friendly people and tasty coffee saved us from hotel room blues.

Best staff in town. Love the atmosphere the staff puts off and great coffee and teas. If you are even a semi regular they usually remember what you like.
Ideal morning cup of coffee. Great quality and service.
Great spot for a quick bite or a great coffee☕️ ! I highly recommend the blended Butterfinger mocha!

These girls are great, always friendly. I love the Reese's Mocha here. I get it when I am in Red Bluff because its worth the stop.
I usually don’t write reviews but this place deserves one. Most drive through coffee shops are always a hitter. The sweetest young lady with the nice eyebrows suggested on giving the butterfingers a try and let me tell you… it did not disappoint! This drink is spot on with just the right amount of flavor. We also got a vanilla cold brew with a soft top and this thannnng got us going a steady 80 mph. Our new go to spot when heading up north. Thank you Java Detour!
Awesome, super friendly staff with even better drinks🤘
In my morning these special corners have what you need to wake up, good coffee!
Go there almost everyday and greeted by friendly smiles and happy atmosphere. Coffee is out in a quick and efficient manner. The coffee is delicious
I get my coffee almost every day here. I love them. They are always so nice and wonderful. They are always so fast and never have to wait a long time. They have all different style drinks. They also are the only place in town that I know of that does xl cups. They have 2 drive up windows and 1 walk up window. It is easy to get in and out even for being on main Street.
The baristas are very attentive and go beyond expectations. The bagel dogs are scrumptious. And of course the coffee is Superior to all else in town. If you want the best coffee in town go to Java detour it is amazing
Not super fast... But worth it! We were in line behind one other car and it definitely took a few minutes for them to get through so we could pull up and order. The coffee was quite excellent, though, by any standard, and the price was far, far less than I would have expected for that amount of coffee - especially coffee of that quality! Would definitely go back here.
I have been going here for years and they are the nicest people. They were here before Starbucks and Dutch Brothers. Their coffee drinks and service are far superior to all other coffee shops in town. I am loyal to them because I am not being rushed to get my order and go. They always make me genuinely feel welcome, always had treats for my puppy. I enjoy their croissant breakfast sandwiches made while you wait. My opinions and observations as always. Don't tailgate Don't use your phone when driving Use your turn signals. Slow down You only get one life. Make it a great one. Care about others and not just yourself. My mother taught me to never tell anyone to have a great day , but instead to tell them : "Have a great life." That way I never have to tell you have a great day again because I'm covered. So HAVE A GREAT LIFE EVERYONE. Pass it on please. And do it the best safest way you can. 😁💞
Traveled 30 miles for the BUTTERFINGER... get yourself one 😋
Always great service. I've been going here for about 15 years I think it was right after they went in. I was a regular for many years and they knew my order before I ever got to the window. They always take care of you with some great coffee and other beverages.
Love their coffee so much better than big chain places near by. The workers are always friendly and the coffees are always so good!
My girls are the best! I pull up and they know what I want. Always so sweet!!! I come at least once a day! And way to stay classy with the of. Red bulls they taste the best!!😗😗😗
Great customer service and delicious coffee. It seems like every time I’m in RedBluff I find myself there. Super sweet ladies too!
I had a lovely mocha that wasn't too sweet and blended just right. The sandwich was good. The service was super friendly and followed safety guidelines to a t.
If I lived in this town, this would be where I went to get coffee all the time. Super friendly. Delicious coffee! This is the best cup of coffee I bought during my week's stay in California.
Love the owner ..she is so nice!! Always friendly and fast. And im always late in the mornings...i pull up and she already knows what i want. Way better then Stsrbucks!!

Ladies are wonderful. Great service and good drinks at a decent price
after you've been going there for a long while you notice the artificial smiles, onon a see ya laters which is understandable after doing this for 5 years or longer but what bothers me is paying $6 or so 4 a a frappuccino that is mostly ice and a small fraction chia. if u go to Starbucks and order the same drink you'll notice that the consistency of there blended fraps is perfect so u get the same mixture until the end ll not left with a cup half full of just ice with no chai.
The customer service was great but definitely not the best coffee I've had. The chocolate had a liquor flavor, and the base coffee was weak.
The staff is nice and the coffee drinks are good. Good location!
They used to be friendlier. I miss the coffee cards. I prefer Dutch Brother's.
1 star can't give less. Woman NOT WEARING A MASK! Both of our drinks were done wrong. It's a sad day when people serving don't care about the people putting money in their pockets. The mint oreo had no mint oreo. The regular oreo didn't have oreo. Sooooo disappointed. I suggest staying away.
Went there at 5:30 pm yesterday evening and they were closed I looked online before I left my house and it said they closed at 7pm. And this isn’t the first time I’ve stopped at the coffee shop before 7pm and it was closed.. If your hours are changed, update them! It even says you close at 7pm on your building..
Weve been coming to this location for years and have ALWAYS had a great experience UNTIL TODAY. Our Barista McKenzie overcharged us. No big deal, we thought wed bring it to her attention. As soon as we did she got back with one of our drinks we told her and the attitude got so nasty. She slammed the drink down and started arguing that it was "ONLY a dollar". I asked her if she could please adjust it so we could get our dollar back and she just GLARED at us. She then did something on the other register to give us back our money, came back and goes "actually it's only 75 cents!" Clearly agitated and shaking at this point. My husband points out that it's principle, we were overcharged, said thank you and as we drove away she HOLLERED "YOU'RE WEIRD" and SLAMMED the window shut. After coming here for twenty years, we won't even come back anymore if she continues to be employed here. Absolutely rude, nasty and our drinks were watered down tasting, which, again, that's never happened to us there before today. We even left a 50% tip prior to this interaction. Her attitude is just not something I'll ever pay to experience ever again, and after years of friendly and consistent service, an attitude like hers and insults being hollered will break a business.
Was literally just there, sat outside the window for over 5 minutes waving my arms and honking my horn. The lady inside didn't budge or look up from her phone. Felt like she purposely ignored me. Left without getting a coffee, and probably won't be back again. Hope she gets fired
