Java Nation’s fourth location brings a latte to Silver Spring
Java Nation, a combination coffee bar and restaurant, opened its fourth locationin Montgomery County in March. The new Silver Spring locale features two distinct concepts, each with its own hours and offerings: Java Restobar is a full-service restaurant and bar with outdoor seating, and Java Market offers an espresso bar with grab-and-go food options. The vibe at Restobar is contemporary with mid-century modern wooden furniture and glass pendant lighting, making it ideal for breakfast, lunch or dinner, all of which are served daily. You’ll also find live music from local artists on the expansive 80-seat patio (check the website for the schedule). At both Restobar and Java Market, customers will find house-roasted coffee drinks (try the honey lavender latte), Instagrammable pastries and locally sourced products. Standout dishes at the full-service restaurant include the savory leek-and-Gruyère quiche, the huevos rancheros on crunchy corn tacos with avocado, and the linguine tossed with sauteed spinach, shrimp, garlic, butter and parmesan. For dessert, you can’t go wrong with any of the housemade treats, including tres leches cake and expertly crafted espresso martinis.
