    Eclectic coffee/breakfast spot in an old victorian house. The coffee and huge breakfast sandwich were excellent and inexpensive, even considering the bacon, egg and cheese were all cooked together. Tons of seating between two brightly-colored rooms. There are board games to play with, books to read and oddball items for sale.

    The coziest coffee shop to get something amazing to drink and get lost in a book while listening to soft jazz. (Well that was my experience today) Love this place! Haven't been? Why? Sit inside or out on the porch. The place isnt just coffee but they also sell lots of cool things.

    This is a very interesting and very cozy coffee shop. I love the variety of things they have and the coffee is good, I had the Hazelnut, Caramel iced latte topped off with blueberry. The customer service is great!

    So many choices, lots of flavors, and unique combinations with great names. Coffee and espresso are my go-to, but also have so many kinds of tea, hot chocolate, and a bunch of other drinks. Willing to accommodate just about any request. On a particularly rough morning I just asked for "as many shots as can fit in a large" and I got exactly that. I would recommend the Turkish Coffee in either a late or cold brew, but if you want something a little spicy ask for a Red Dragon. Can't forget about their food: egg/cheese/chorizo sandwich, home made yogurt, and other assorted baked goods either made there or from other local businesses. They have a great sense of community, the place has great vibes inside and out, and it's just a really chill place to sit and have a coffee and a treat. If I could give it more stars I would but go visit for yourself

    This place is the beating heart of Bethel. Great drinks and food, made on the premises. The best staff around. Hang out long enough and you'll run into most everyone. I will be very happy if/when they go back to pre-covid hours!

    The atmosphere is really relaxing, and the setup makes you feel comfortable. Their coffees are made wonderfully, and the sandwiches and treats they sell are delicious. Very friendly and helpful staff.

    We enjoyed Turkish coffee ( latte). Accompanying some out of this world "bread pudding" & salted caramel bars. Very Bohemian atmosphere. Staff was awesome. Definitely will return!

    Love this coffee shop in downtown Bethel. Super friendly service, cool funky atmosphere, good coffee and other treats. It has a devoted clientele for good reason. It’s one of the reasons I love Bethel.

    This is a fabulous coffee shop with plenty of soul and and plenty of character. You’re not going to find this in the big chains like Starbucks or Dunkin’ Donuts. Lots to choose from here, great atmosphere, and welcoming staff. I highly recommend.

    Molten Java is the quintessential small-town coffee shop, chock full of charm and spirit, but also chock full of wonderful coffees and teas both hot and cold, and a fabulous staff. Very lucky to have this great place right in my hometown!

    Such a cute spot! Got their house made chai and it’s just the right amount of sweetness! They have plenty of milk replacements. Baked goods are great. Lots of little novelties and quirky gifts. Staff was very chill and friendly.

    Super cozy spot and funky for the whole fam. My tiny kids love hanging here to color and aww at the unicorns and glitter tables granting me peace while I enjoy a Turkish latte and we love to see sweet Marissa in the mornings!

    Really cute and hip place! Huge variety of specialty drinks - caffeinated and not, hot and cold. Very friendly staff. Will stop again next time I’m in Bethel.

    I always have to make a visit to Molten Java when I'm visiting family in the Bethel area. They have a huge variety of hot and cold drinks (all delicious) and a good food selection, which you can enjoy inside or outdoors on the spacious porch. It's an eclectic place with great energy, and somehow manages to feel both like home and a special destination. I always leave feeling uplifted!

    I went in with my relative that has severe autism and a girl named kyra who worked there was so helpful and worked so well with him. Thank you so much for hiring such an incredible and kind person like kyra!

    Very beautiful Victorian house the aesthetics inside was beautiful and me and my friend tried a cook it was delicious but maybe the 2 people working there today are new because I bough 2 flavored different iced coffees and both tasted absolutely the same also they didn’t have much flavor and I will be going back hopefully a better experience when the coffee next time (:
