The sweetest baristas with the most wonderful and refreshing drinks. Lovely place to get coffee or smoothies after a day at the lake.

A nice little shop! I went on a vacation and I wish we had one back at home! I had a mocha and it was probably the best one I have ever tasted. They have plenty of options. The staff are also super friendly! Prices are 1-5$ per drink which is pretty manageable compared to other stores. Highly recommend this nice little store!!

The Serene Bean is one of those little gems in the world tucked into the forest; fresh roasted coffee and espresso ground on premises and pulled shots to perfection! Family owned and operated by the Cashman family (parents of Olympic skier Keely Cashman!) their friendly service and excellent quality keeps us coming back for more! Broad menu of choices from espresso drinks, to smoothies, Italian sodas, and muffins, breakfast burritos, cookies …Very family friendly and dog friendly as well. This is a do not miss landmark when visiting Pinecrest!

This is truly a serene coffee spot. I love grabbing a coffee and enjoying it down at the lake or on the trail. The staff are always welcoming and wonderful. I can't wait for my next visit to Pinecrest to enjoy another cup.

Best lattes and mochas on highway 108!

My go-to coffee place up here on the mountain. I strongly recommend the Mexicali Mocha, iced or hot depending on the season!

Very civilized way to start the day. Grab a cuppa joe from the friendly folks behind the counter, walk over to the lake and enjoy the sunrise.

The Serene Bean has consistently provided the best coffee experience on the West Coast. The owners, who are wonderful people, go out of their way to help people with things that have nothing to do with coffee...like helping you find your lost pet! Above and beyond I say!!!

Hands down the best coffee in downtown Pinecrest, CA. Friendly service and the iced beverages are a summertime favorite.

Delicious coffee, friendly staff. Partial to the mochas. Get a coffee, stroll to the lake benches to drink it, what's not to like?
