THE
CJ
WAY
We are a European inspired healthy café in
Charlottesville, Virginia.
We see food as a tool to improve the health and well-being of stakeholders within the Charlottesville community.
As the saying goes: "you are what you eat"
We believe that food is medicine: when you fuel better, you feel better.

To increase the accessibility of healthy and delicious foods in a memorable and sustainable way
OUR MISSION
To always provide a welcoming and inclusive environment for everyone, no mater who you are or what you eat.
OUR
PROMISE
To facilitate access to high quality plant-based nutrition while looking out for the future health of our community and the planet we call home.
OUR GOAL

OUR FAMILY
As a family owned and operated small-business, we take great
pride in our team. We're
always looking for highly
motivated individuals to join the CJ family!

ORGANIC
INGREDIENTS
At CJ, we try our very best to always source the freshest produce of the highest quality.
We source organic strawberries, blueberries, spinach, kale, pineapples, nuts, seeds, dates, and many more...
This means they are grown without exposure to fertilizers and pesticides! Not only is this better for you, but also our Mother Earth!
We are proud to work with some incredible neighbors, including (but not limited to):
Marie Bette Bakery
Blue Ridge Coffee
Hudson Henry Granola
Blue Ridge Bucha
Carter's Mountain
Black Bear Compost
LOCAL PARTNERS

RECYCLE
Everything at CJ can be either recycled or composted. We find it imperative to reduce waste where we can, that is why all of our straws, spoons, forks, and knives are made from plants!
RECYCLE

Glass is a CJ staple: juices, jars and shots all come in them.
By using glass, we drastically reduce the amount of single-use plastic in the system.
Recycle your glass at any location. Thanks for helping us make Mother Earth a little greener!

COMPOST
Our local partnership with
Black Bear Composting allows us to create our delicious juice while cycling our by-products back to the planet. We compost hundreds of pounds of our dried juice pulp thanks to Black Bear!
