Bean There has the perfect feel for a cafe - lots of space between tables, allowing air to settle between each customer. Entering between two rows of tables, one along the wall, and the other along the tall windows, the customer makes their way back to the service area, after passing a wall mounted bookcase full of loose tea.
Bean There Cafe
The cafe staff was engaging with customers and stepped into the table area twice in a half hour to clean tables and sort out the customer coffee prep area. The staff asked each seated customer if they were done with each plate or cup before removing, being friendly and polite.
My double macchiato was superb. Served in a cappuccino mug, with a bit more foam than to spec, while maintaining the perfect creme. My first sip after it was served was as good as the last sip I took a half hour later. The flavor and texture were evenly consistent throughout the entire experience.
The music was grooving at just the right volume, loud enough to hear, but quiet enough to allow me to ignore it if I chose; just loud enough to hear the lyrics. Teh corner store layout, with windows on both corner walls, coupled with 12 foot high ceilings, allowed plenty of natural light to filter in.
This was a great coffee experience, just a 15 minute walk from my apartment. I will have to try the great selection of tea.
You write well. This blog was engaging, and when the subject is something like coffee it isn't always easy to lure your readers into the writing like you did.
