JavaVan

JavaVan operate in their mobile coffee van, outside Karratha Visitor Centre on WA’s West Pibara Coast. Owners and experienced baristas Leah and Jack know just how much dose and grind creates the perfect coffee.

Their customers all agree that JavaVan is the “Ultimate bean machine”. But their fame spreads much further than Karratha Visitor Centre and the West Pilbara Coast of WA. They were chosen by Fox Studios in Sydney to look after movie stars on the set of Baz Luhrmann's epic film 'Australia'. In an interview with Nova Radio Perth, Nicole Kidman exclaimed, “They are a Godsend….we all love the iced coffees”, while the Sydney Herald Sun reported that they served “stunningly good coffee”.

JavaVan is completely self-contained, which means they can attend events where there is no mains power or water supply and still provide a delicious, freshly brewed gourmet coffee.  They have serviced events as far apart as Esperance and Kununurra – all part of the service they say.
