Jackson Avenue Coffee is located just off the square in Charleston, Illinois. It is a great atmosphere for meetings, friends, study groups, and more! We’re slightly biased here, but we like to say we have the best coffee in town! We also offer a variety of custom blended teas, chai lattes, smoothies, and frappes.

Pop in for a latte and scone to go or stay awhile with a mug of coffee and a bagel. Our friendly baristas can’t wait to get to know you!

JACoffers wireless internet, just ask the barista for a password with your purchase.

JAC is very involved in being a venue for local artists and musicians. We have a monthly art exhibit in the front room. If you are interested in being a featured artist, come in anytime and ask the barista for an application.
