The Wild Bean

This is one of my favorite coffee shops near my office! It's a great spot for casual business meet up and impress your partner with your expert coffee knowledge. Be careful though, there's a bakery next door and you will put on some pounds if you're not careful!

Super cute coffee and eatery (limited but decent menu)! They were slammed on a Sunday morning yet everyone was chill and patient. The atmosphere is just super welcoming and sweet. The passway to 360 Bakery is nice too.

I really wanted to like this place, but I’m genuinely disappointed. When I asked the staff if their matcha was ceremonial grade, no one seemed to know until one of the girls eventually said yes. I ordered an iced matcha latte and clearly asked for no sweetener. When my drink was handed to me, it was immediately obvious from the color and consistency that it wasn’t ceremonial grade, but I decided to give it a try. The first sip was overwhelmingly sweet, even my friend, who usually enjoys very sweet drinks, couldn’t finish it. I went back to ask if sugar had been added, and was told that their matcha is pre-mixed with sugar. If I business is unsure of the product qualify when purchasing it, I high advise to not serve it. I’ve spent years studying matcha, not only tasting different brands, but also learning about the traditional process of cultivation, shading, and stone-grinding that defines true ceremonial quality. I felt I was lied to and should have trusted my intuition when the staff didn’t know the answer and was looking at each other wondering what I was talking about.

Cozy cafe with good wifi and quiet atmosphere very conducive to working on laptop, taking meetings and other phone calls. Plentiful coffee and chai/tea options and a good variety of pastries as well as some breakfast and lunch options. Friendly staff and beautiful ambience.

This is definitely my favorite coffee shop in the metro area. The music is quiet enough that I can work on my laptop. Everyone who works here is always nice, and I've actually had a few really nice conversations with other patrons, too. I really enjoy the drinks and baked goods I get here, they're always yummy. The vibes are absolutely adorable and sitting outside chatting with a friend when it's warm out is nice. I haven't taken my dog here yet, but outside the door they have a water dish, treats, and a place to hang up your dogs leash while you run in and get your coffee. I love the browsing and sometimes buying things from the little shopping area. The only thing I'd change is I'd love if it were open later, I just can't get enough of The Bean!
