If you’re looking for your new favorite coffee spot and a way to make a positive impact, The Bean at the JCC is the perfect blend. They proudly serve Snakebite coffee — a small-batch roasting company that absolutely nails the art of the perfect home roast. (Seriously, every cup is a hug in a mug.)
But what truly sets The Bean apart is its heart.
Warm atmosphere, friendly staff, and coffee that rivals any big-city café. Whether you’re grabbing a quick espresso or settling in for a leisurely latte, The Bean delivers every time.
Highly recommend — your caffeine fix has never felt so good!

Super friendly service and unbelievable prices. I think is the cheapest best coffee I’ve had in La Jolla!

Good coffee and kind and friendly staff. The only reason for the 4 stars is how inconsistent their hours are. They are supposed to close at 7pm, but sometimes they will close at 3pm, or sometimes they will close at 5pm. You never know...

NEW MENU AND NEW HOURS!For the first time since the pandemic, the Bean has extended their hours! A great place to get work done and meet up with friends or even colleagues! The café is INSIDE the Jewish Community Center, tell the front desk you want to go to the Bean and they will allow you :)

Really great selection of burgers and the fries were amazing! Located inside the Jewish community centre, isn't a negative but obviously a different vibe to going to a restaurant or café. The portion sizes were incredible. Updated from previous review on 2023-04-03

I am just thrilled that there is some thing out there for me. And I really thought the service was exceptional.

These are just really good burgers. Friendly service, fast, delicious, and fresh. What more could you ask for? Highly recommend.

It is nice to have a new option for vegan burgers that are also not the typical vegan burger you can now find pretty much “anywhere”. They use the impossible patty (my favorite) for 6 different burgers and they also have a falafel one I haven’t tried yet. I had the Waikiki and I loved it, he had the Jerusalem and said it was really good, both messy but delicious and their fries are great too.
