The Bean Bar

The Bean Bar Co.17018 Palm Pointe Dr, Tampa, FL 33647@beanbar_co Had the pleasure of visiting a great breakfast and lunch spot in Tampa. The Bean Bar Co. has a nice atmosphere to hang out with family and friends. You can also spend there to do some school work or work on line. Come by and check them out.

Got coffee to go here twice. Coffee is good. They have a selection of food items, which look pretty good. I asked if they have gluten free toast ( for my son ), but unfortunately they don't. They have some gluten free packaged items, I got a little gluten free treat and it was really good! They have a couch area in the front and tables and chairs to sit down and eat. Service was friendly and straight forward.

Gosh, I so badly wanted to give this spot five stars, but they missed the mark today. We went in on Saturday morning at 9am and it was barely busy. They were out of decaf and out of nitro off the jump. From there, they gave us the wrong order and then got our orders wrong (my bacon on his sandwich, his sausage on mine). Such a cute spot with so much potential. The coffee was great (yes, I spent $17 on a flight because it was cute) and the sandwiches were also great. I'll definitely given them another shot to earn my business because there's SO MUCH potential here.

Okay-ish place with 5 small tables and some other chairs. Food and drink is below average. I got an iced lavender latte but I think they heard "hold the lavender" cause there was absolutely no lavender flavor and the coffee was weak. I also got a bagel sandwich. It was very heavy and dense without any chewiness. I guess if you lower your expectation, this place is pretty good. Also, there's only 2 people working at the time I was there, so service was slower.

Any place can *say good morning-this place *serves it. It's a sunny, warm cup of good cheer-from the colorful murals and window art-to the cozy, comfy menu-to the bright and friendly staff-all my mornings should start here. Making all of this even better-I winged it! I had no idea idea I was coming until I realized I had some time before an appointment and turned to you, Yelp fam, for insight on "coffee near me." I quickly learned they had great parking and were easy to find (in The Pointe at Tampa Palms shopping center, with Red Lobster, Stonewood Tavern, Olive Garden, 7-Eleven and McDonalds) Off I went... into the happy looking storefront, to find the softest, tastiest plain bagel I've ever had (it was almost delicate and/or buttery!) and an absolutely divine hot chai tea latte. It was like drinking velvet-sooooo good. It's not big-but you don't want it to be. There's seating at the high counter, a couple of high tops, two or three tables and a love seat and easy chair. They offer breakfast sandwiches, specialty toasts- like avocado and peanut butter banana-plus all sorts of baked goods. I'm eyeing the cheddar jalapeño bagel for next time-and there will definitely be so many next times. I'll save you a seat!

Stopped by here with the intention of getting some work done. There's only a few tables and some seating without tables and not many outlets. Thankfully my device was charged. The latte I ordered was very weak and not very flavored, I wanted to like this place after seeing the reviews and the inside was cute but it just fell short.

I was super excited to try out bean bar. I love the vibe of the coffee shop and the decor really makes it super cute. I decided to get the coffee flight because I wanted to see what all the hype was about and the names just didn't pair up well with what I was tasting. I also felt that it was more about the look of the flight than the taste. My friends and I are very outgoing people and we were a little taken aback when we didn't feel it reciprocated by the staff. I still really enjoyed my time there and would go back!Follow my instagram account travelingtastebuds for awesome travel spots!

A local coffee house that also has some nice pastries and croissants. Very fresh. The average price for coffee and a pastry /croissant is about $10/ person.

The line was about four people and moved slowly. Their board of offerings is perfectly laid out with lots of fun options. Latte and coffee. Hot and cold. Even some fun flavors with popular cereal. I went with the Reese's Puffs cereal coffee and a cheesecake filled donut that was stuff filled. The coffee actually had Reese's Puffs pieces in it!After about ten minutes of getting through the line we sat at the long bar area with a nice gentleman moving down so two of us could sit together. The entire time we were there only about two tables opened up. So be prepared to enjoy your coffee in your vehicle. This is one reason for the lower star rating. Luckily even though the place was packed the people were not overly loud so you could hear someone next to you. We were sitting next to the spot where all the coffees were being picked up so this was another factor as they announced the orders coming out There were about six orders in front of ours and it took about twenty minutes for the coffee and latte to come out, luckily together. The donut came out then too but the croissant was a few minutes later. This is not a good place to get your coffee if you are in a hurry. Another reason for the lower star rating.Parking can be a bit of a challenge as you get closer to the meal hour because this is next door to the popular Cali bowl restaurant, along with an all you can eat sushi restaurant. Best bet is to park down near Stonewood Tavern and walk a couple minutes.Overall a nice flavored coffee and donut. Might help if they had another person making the orders to speed things up. Really no solution for the lack of seating.

First of all, I rarely write 2 star reviews because I'm too nice (to a fault). I'm only rounding it up to a 3 because my drink was very good, and I didn't actually pay for it. It was an early birthday gift from my friend who bought a $15 for $30 voucher. I met her at The Bean Bar as a starting point to our fun-filled day of celebration. She always speaks very highly of their coffee truck. It ended up being a bad first impression for me. I mean seriously, how do you forget an order worth $30? What made it worse was my friend kept apologizing to me, and it wasn't even her fault.To make a long story short, only 1 item in the order was fulfilled (the ube latte). The rest of it was forgotten. I had a feeling something was wrong when 2 or 3 other customers who came in after us received their orders. I also observed that some people in line behind us were getting irritated. I could tell by their facial expressions. It was around 9:00 am in the morning, so it became quite a rush after we ordered. I realize mistakes happen, but I don't think we're the only ones who have experienced this based on other reviews. It just seemed very disorganized because they didn't use order numbers. They just call out your drink name. It could have been anyone's drink. My friend kept thinking she may have took another person's drink because there was no one at the pick up counter to confirm that it was her drink.On a good note, the matcha latte was delightful. It had a strong matcha taste with a yummy strawberry cream foam. It's one of their new summer drinks. It was a great pre-Birthday treat!Unfortunately, this was the first and last time for me. I can't see driving all the way from Valrico and not knowing how the service will be on any given day. I've had better coffee/tea/service experiences elsewhere.

i have been to the bean bar a few times, my first few experiences were great. the baristas were kind, the coffee wasn't bad, both locations ive been to were super cute. the reason for the one star (id give 0 if i could) was due to an experience i had today. when i saw that they had a stand at the strawberry festival, after i had driven an hour to attend, within the first 5 minutes i knew i wanted to stop by because ive had great experiences ... unfortunately this was the worst cafe experience i have EVER had. they took my order, they also did not have ice (which is fine, it happens), so my mom ordered a hot coffee and i ordered my drink. while waiting at the window, the man who made my drink turned to hand it to me and he must've slipped or something and for whatever reason squeezed the drink and which popped the lid off and due to the fact they were in a foodtruck style thing, basically flung the coffee at me and completely covered me in it. it was all over my face, my hair, my white shirt (if i can add a photo i will) and it splattered all over my mom as well. people literally stopped to gasp it was so embarrassing. and i get it, accidents happen, but now im an hour away from home in a coffee soaked shirt with it all over my face and hair. the man didnt even apologize or do anything, he just looked shocked and turned back around. they didnt refund me for my drink, they didnt offer a new shirt, he literally did not say a word to me and just turned to continue making customer orders. a nice woman in line offered me her hand sanitizer (didn't help, but still a thoughtful gesture) and i had to immediately buy a new shirt at this festival, while people are staring at me because im covered in coffee, and spend the rest of my time there sticky. I got home from the festival and found coffee not only on my feet and stuck in my hair, but on my eyelids, stuck and hardened into my eyelashes (i ordered a mocha so im assuming that's why it hardened), among other places. my mom, who got the backsplash of all of it, had her top and pants and bag ruined as well. i totally understand spills happen, i managed cafes for about 5 years so im usually very understanding, but this was absolutely unacceptable. he didn't even apologize or do anything, just turned around and ignored us. it was humiliating.*photo is from after wiping off what I could
