Coffee Bean Express
1111 Cranston St, Cranston, RI
Crema's Take
“Coffee Bean Express in Cranston has built a loyal following for their creative refreshers and quality shakes, offering a fun escape from standard coffee shop fare. While their specialty drinks earn genuine enthusiasm from regulars, the shop struggles with consistency—pre-brewed coffee, pricing discrepancies, and operational hiccups like confusing closing times have left customers frustrated. If you're craving something adventurous beyond traditional coffee, their signature creations are worth trying, just manage expectations around their timing and food quality.”

There was a 2 for $8.49 sign for breakfast sandwiches. I asked for that and the woman said it ends at 2pm. I had no problem, considering it was almost 2:30. Until i looked back at the sign and no where on the sign did it have a time frame. I then explained that to the woman and she basically wouldn’t do anything about it. I said it was false advertising and she did not care what so ever. I asked for a manager and she told me there was no manager there and asked “do you want the sandwiches or not?” I am very disappointed in this service and unfortunately will not be returning there again, which is sad because i really enjoyed the food and shakes.
Didn’t know they close at 9:00pm pulled up lights were still on people were still ordering at the walk up so me & three other cars were in the drive threw the person infront of me ordered then had everyone else sitting there for 15 minutes the girl didn’t even respond saying she’s closing just had us all in the drive threw and we come around and she shut all the lights off & just shook her head . Could have atleast been a decent person & told all the other cars that she closed !
Horrible. They don’t even brew fresh coffee for you. They have already made liquid god know how long has it been sitting there! I escaped my corporation coffee machine for a better coffee taste and it just taste as bad as that if not worse 🤮
I love this place! They have great ice cream, shakes, and food! I love to get the renew refresher, their refreshers are amazing! Unfortunately, the reason for my 3 star review, is they close too early which is the only downside. Aside from that, it would be 5 stars !!
Wow this place is abysmally bad. Ordered two bacon egg and cheese Sign out front says $8 the total came to over 12 The sandwich was soggy, gross, and of the lowest quality ever. Microwaved bacon and microwaved egg patties I genuinely cannot believe how bad this place was. I love to support local businesses, but as a business owner you need to hold yourself to higher standards. If I could give this place a zero I would
