Bean&Bean Coffee New York Reviews
There really is something about their coffee, I only drink black coffee and it was the best tasting coffee I really have ever had! I was so busy when I stopped in for my first time I didn't realize that it was their own coffee blend, coffee good enough to make it your first stop in the morning even if you gotta pass some more spots! Awesome job guys!
Honestly so pleasantly surprised by this place. Offers so much in terms of drinks and food and great quality
The service there is always good in bean & bean’s I recently got a classic everything bagel with avocado spread that was AMAZING and the bagel had so much favor that I want to get a bagel again! I do say the chai lattes were ok but that to my likening. Would recommend for the bagels 👍👍
Good coffee! It's a cosy little coffee shop, a small business, very close to Penn Station. When I just arrived in NYC and was in need of coffee, I looked for coffee shops on Google and this showed up close by. There were a couple of places with higher ratings but I chose to go here and boy, did I make the right decision! I'm usually sceptical of some small independent coffee shops that tend to just put together some coffee and milk, frothing the milk way too much such that the top of the cup is a large topping of just foam. But I'm so glad Bean & Bean wasn't one such place. It was a well made coffee! It's a good spot for a quick work session too but it can get a little stuffy if spent too much time indoors.
Anne had the Mango Refresher which was needed during the scorching weather in New York City. I opted for a small Iced Latte and a toasted Everything Bagel with cream cheese as I hadn’t had lunch. We sat at a large table with grooves. While there were some customers the cafe wasn’t crowded or noisy. However, the music was a touch too loud which made it hard for me to hear my friend. We sat there for quite a while. Service here is friendly and efficient. There is a variety of seating including comfortable armchairs which is unusual. A gender neutral restroom (washroom) is here as well.
I went on a Saturday afternoon. They had 0 line compared to Brooklyn Bagel’s long line. Cashier was very very patient as I looked over the menu. I was indecisive and asked her rec for cream cheese; she said the avocado was one of her faves so I went with that. It was really really good!!! I love the amount of cream cheese used; it’s not a ridiculously dense layer like some New York bagel shops do, nor too thin. It was just right. Coffee was tasty too!! They had plenty of seating inside, and a restroom for customers. I’ll absolutely come back!
This the the coffee shop made to co work, hangout and also have a good hot and iced beverages The shop itself is very spacious, staff friendly and nice.. they have tables to co-work or single chairs with small table if you want to be alone. But note that seating space is for customers only. No outside food or beverages allowed.
This is a spacious, friendly, and comfortable spot for hot and cold coffees and teas, as well as bagels, pastries, and snacks. In the late morning you can seating for a rest, a little co-working, or a breezy hang with friends and family. The iced raspberry tea is a cool refreshment. The staff are smiling, with youthful energy and sunny poise. If you look up from noshing or your phone, you’ll also realize you’re in a great spot for slow people watching. You might even spot the cutest dog come in for a cup of water, too.
I recently visited a coffee shop with a few friends and was pleasantly surprised by the experience. The service was fast and the staff was friendly and helpful. The inside was clean and wide open with plenty of seating spread out, which allowed us to easily socialize with each other. Additionally, there was plenty of space to get work done with lots of tables and open areas. The coffee was great; they had several different beans and flavors to choose from. My friends and I all found something that we liked. The pastries were also delicious. I had a muffin that was freshly baked and had a wonderful flavor. Overall, my friends and I had a great time at the coffee shop. It had a great atmosphere with lots of space to hang out and get work done. The coffee was excellent and the pastries were delicious. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a great place to hang out and get some work done.
Went in here cause I needed to use the restroom. Once I got in a I was pleasantly surprised. The place is huge, with so many options to sit. The coffee and food options are pricey, but most coffee shops are pricey nowadays. They don’t however have many vegan or gluten free options. But have a lot other healthy options.
coffee is ok but the girl working behind the counter is incredibly rude. i walked in and she just stood there and stared at her phone. i had to ask the other customers around me if they had ordered yet, and when they said no, i had to approach her and request to place an order. she made the whole experience very uncomfortable also $9 for a small latte is insane
Service was fine, atmosphere was fine, but I was stunned to see that the plain croisant, lightly buttered, and slightly burnt, I bought was over $6!! It tastes like a standard croisant, and regardless of the ingredients, that just isn't worth it in this economy. I didn't get anything else. I have never felt so ripped off.
I really liked this place when I first moved to the neighborhood, it as his big windows and lots of room, great for coworking. However, I was stunned when I bought an iced oat chai latte for $8.50 to go and managed to finish it before I even walked home to my apartment, five minutes away. This is probably just a New York thing with prices at this point, but look at the sheer amount of ice in my drink. It was 70% ice for such a high price.
I highly encourage every customer who pays with their credit card to check their credit cards statement. I’ve been to this cafe multiple times since last fall, sometime alone sometime with friends. I always paid with my credit card and added a tip. But when I received my credit card statements, I realized that they added extra tip on top of what I paid every single time. They rely on customers not noticing $ amount difference between what they actually paid at the time of checkout and what actually is charged to their credit cards. There are a couple other Google reviews by customers who noticed the same issue. Some reviews were written one year or so back. So I assume this cafe is running this scam for quite sometime. Shameful and dishonest business practice! This cafe seems to be owned by a mother/daughter duo and I would have loved to continue supporting their business. But I will not be back - there are many other good, honest businesses/cafes around the same neighborhood.
Reduced my rating from 4 stars to 1 star (and to be fair I'm leaving my original review below). Be careful when buying your coffee at this business, they've been helping themselves to their own $1 tip at the point of sale and doing so for a long time. At the date and time of this review, a small cup of coffee is (and had been for as long as I can remember) $3.25, but for a long while, my small coffee has been priced a dollar higher (without me leaving a tip). This has to be illegal and if it isn't, it's very unfortunate that this coffee shop will have this on their reputation. Is this tactic being asked from management? Or, was this an isolated practice by a couple of the barristers there? We don't know (several of us in my office noticed this practice and began keeping an eye open for this practice). What is certain, is that we work one block from this coffee shop, we visit almost every morning, but this morning may be my last. ~~~~~ Very good coffee at a relatively good price. Coffee is also sound by the pound and is ground in-house. The atmosphere is great and the interior is ideal for looking out into the Chelsea sights. There is plenty of seating but, you'll be fortunate to find a place to sit. Plenty of work space with a good amount of outlets if that's what you look for while sipping your coffee. Excellent location, worth a visit if you're into sitting down and relaxing or working with coffee.
