Bean & Barley
2005 1/2 Madison Rd, Cincinnati, OH
Crema's Take
“Bean & Barley is a cozy Cincinnati gem that's earned serious love for its exceptional matcha and thoughtfully crafted specialty drinks, drawing a loyal crowd of laptop workers and coffee enthusiasts who linger in the inviting, uniquely designed space. The late hours make it a rare find for evening coffee seekers, and the attentive service pairs perfectly with an atmosphere that genuinely encourages you to stay awhile. While their pastry program has shifted away from house-made options in recent times, the quality of the drinks and the welcoming vibe keep people coming back.”
