Cafe Bean

Bianca the woman who used to own the cafe bean was wonderful. It's been years and I still miss her friendly personality and a wonderful coffee she used to serve. When the new people took over I knew from the first time I walked in I wouldn't be coming back very rude and unfriendly. A friend of mine accidentally walked in there because he got confused about where we were going to meet. He said it was just like a hoarders dirty Paradise. I had to check for myself so I went in a few days later and I had to leave right away it was very impressive I don't know when the last time the health department was there. There are two other coffee shops within a block and a half that are wonderful the Cozy Cafe and morning fix fresh food courteous service wonderful places to enjoy a breakfast or lunch

This is a small business with one of the lowest prices I've seen for food and drinks. My total after getting a chai latte and sandwich was 17$. The area inside doesn't have much seating inside but there are also tables outside. Very cozy and quiet. There is wifi. Chester, the owner is very friendly and has definitely built a community with his customers. This cafe was hit by the pandemic and had to drop a few employees but still keep their prices startling low at 4.50 for a "small" drink that still serves as a medium as well as sandwiches under 10$. I would come again if in the area.

I had Lunch here with my parents and had a bagel sandwich. The food took 29 minutes to get out but it tasted great. The guy behind the counter was very friendly and the ambience of the place was very nice. I may come back to this place at a later date. I give them 4 stars.

homie and eclectic spot in the neighborhood. friendly owners with the adorable puppy! definitely a dog friendly establishment. coffee was legit.And yes I see that people are commenting on the messiness in the back, I actually think the maximalistic ensemble carried throughout the store has its own charm, great for photoshoot/move set. the booth/sofa corner was a good spot to chill and look outside the window to people watch.

Owner is wonderful and warm. A wealth of knowledge and information from his time in SF. He was born and raised in the city and this cafe was his dream. We had a mango juice, two iced teas, and a strawberry Italian soda. All excellent!!

I had a simple drink this morning, which they didn't get right. I was pretty upset over the whole matter, went to work anyway and threw it out. I've been here quite a few times in the past, but was just upset on my recent visit. The service could be better, they need to pay more attention.

It would be better, but maybe it is the times--no offense. Take Care. It was too expensive. I dunno, I guess I was going for more.

The owner of the place is super friendly and always trying new things to improve his coffee. I've been coming here for a year and it's one of the most cozy coffee shops in the area. Very dog friendly.

The black tea is good, at times. Today it tasted like cofee. Not sure if they were running the tea through the espresso machine to brew it or not? Not sure why that was the case. Service was ok, got my drink fast. Just would recommend they brew their tea differently.

Chester (the owner) makes the most amazing cappuccinos (I like the triple) but his "dirty chai" is to die for! Green tea and jasmine teas were both great chai tea lattes. It was our first stop every morning during our stay. Chester was delightful. Breakfast we had yummy breakfast sandwiches and a really good grilled cheese. Highly recommend it all!
