Shrode ran the business for
many years, selling it twice to
outside purchasers and buying
it back both times.
Shrode designed and built
the new drive-thru in 2011.
The roof is “very much real
and alive, fi lled with fl owers,
grass and plants that all bloom
in due season,” Josh Chilinski
said. “He wanted to have some-
thing that was unique, that was
not cookie-cutter and to incor-
porate as much wood and nat-
uralistic features as he could.”
When Shauna’s mother
Joan Chilinski became ill, the
business took a back seat to
caregiving, and hours at the
Java Reef became irregular.
After her mom’s death,
Shauna
Chilinski
and
Shrode were ready for a life-
style change. That led to the

idea of selling Java Reef.
That’s where Josh and wife
Jennifer Chilinski entered the
picture.
Josh left Seaside following
graduation from Seaside High
School in 2004. He met Jen-
nifer at Oregon State Univer-
sity, where she was studying to
become a clinical dietitian. He
entered sales and she pursued
a career at Scripps Mercy Hos-
pital in Temecula, California.
When they heard Java Reef
was up for sale, the couple
decided to make a fresh start.
They moved to Seaside from
California earlier this year, and
received training from Shauna
before taking over the daily
operations themselves.
Times have changed since
1995, when coffee drive-thrus
were rare on the North Coast.

SEASIDE — Before there
was Dutch Bros in Seaside,
before there was Human Bean
— there was Java Reef.
Some people call it the
“Flintstones’ house” for its dis-
tinctive architecture . But since
1995, this unusual drive-thru at
the Necanicum Estuary on the
border of Seaside and Gearhart
has been serving coffee drinks
to the North Coast faithful.
When Shauna Chilinski
went before the Seaside Plan-
ning Commission for approv-
als for an espresso drive-thru
in 1995, son Josh Chilinski
said, “They’re like, ‘What’s
espresso?’ Espresso wasn’t
even on the map. When she
decided to go to the city, they
had no idea what they were
talking about.”
Java Reef started in the
building behind its current
location, the brainchild of
Josh’s father, artist and wood-
worker Gary Shrode.
The former building went
through several changes —
fi sh-and-chips place, cigarette
shop, art museum, information
center — before transition-
ing into a vacation rental. The
Chilinskis still use the building
to prepare baked goods and
roast coffee beans.
Shauna Chilinski and
