Crema's Take
“Beacon's cold brew is legitimately a cross-country pilgrimage worthy—one reviewer traveled from the East Coast specifically for it, and at the price they're charging, it's practically theft. The space strikes that rare balance of being calm enough for deep work or a quiet meeting while still feeling alive with the neighborhood, thanks to rotating local art on the walls and baristas who actually care (they'll thank you for your patience, genuinely). If you want skillfully made espresso drinks and a solid avocado sandwich in a place where you won't feel rushed, this is your spot.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program, good cold brew. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

OMG, after traveling all the way from the East Coast to the West Coast, I’ve finally found the best cold brew in the US. Amazing flavor, crazy cheap price 🤣 And the girl at the next table smells like an angel 😇 The staff were lovely and had such a warm, pleasant presence :)
Love this place. Great drinks & chill vibes as the busy-ness of Columbus & North Beach zips by & rolls on outside. Baristas are friendly & they always seem to have cool new art on their walls from local artists. They even spawned what has to be one of the best, and least…
