If you don’t have time to eat; at least stop and grab some amazing fair trade organic coffee! I have eaten at the Bean Tree Cafe and love the food, but during my latest visit to Waterloo I didn’t have a lot of time. But I was happy to grab some coffee. The coffee is whole bean, so if you only use ground coffee like myself, they will grind it there for you. Super friendly staff. Great coffee choices. A small business I am thrilled to support.

Got the French toast with strawberries and whipped cream added on with a side of hashbrowns(take out, hence why you can see my mess of a side table in the picture lol). They were super nice and accommodating about our orders. Only thing I can say is I wish the bathrooms there were wider. I'm on the wide end of body types and I looked like one of those people doing the pretzel in a circus just trying to move around 😭

Vegetarian options: They have a veggie omelette! That's all I know though.

Wheelchair accessibility: There's only stairs to get in (as far as I know), and the bathrooms there are too thin to probably fit a wheelchair either.

Yummy!!
Edit: after a few visits of ordering the same item, I've realized they are very inconsistent and that's very important

Great Coffee and breakfast items. The place is small and the wait is well worth it. We stopped by while visiting my parents in Waterloo and will be back when we are up in the area again.

Nice place but they take their phone off the hook and you can never place to go orders! It’s a shame because they have good food

Only had a coffee. Wish I would have had time to eat. Looked good. Coffee was good. They roast it there.

Super cute breakfast spot / coffee shop! Great food, great drinks, great service. Toasted Marshmallow Chai was amazing! We got the Southwest omelet with hash browns and a pancake, the 1-2-3 (potato pancake, 2 eggs, and 3 strips of bacon), and a cup of the blueberry chia oatmeal - everything was great but the Southwest stole the show! Highly recommend 10/10
