Blue Bean
110 N Ankeny Blvd, Ankeny, IA
Crema's Take
“Blue Bean is a modern coffee haven where they're genuinely invested in the craft—they make their own syrups in-house and offer curated coffee flights that let you explore different roasts like a sommelier would with wine. The cozy corner setup with intimate seating, thoughtfully loaded toasts, and a small but considered pastry selection make it feel like a place designed for both lingering conversations and focused work, with staff who are genuinely patient and kind about helping you discover your next favorite cup.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu. Wifi.
