Stopped in for lunch today and the food was excellent. We ordered a Buffalo Chicken Quesadilla and the lunch special Grilled Cheese with their soup of the day, Chicken with Poblano Peppers. The portions were plentiful, everything was delicious, but the soup was out-of-this/world flavorful with just the right spice level. We grabbed a couple of lattes to go after our meal and they were perfect. We will definitely visit Busy Bean again!

I had an egg and cheese bagel here, and it was really good, but it’s hard to have your mind blown by an egg and cheese bagel. I’ll have to try some of their other food options, as I’ve heard good things.

What DID blow my mind was the coffee. I’ve had coffee in a lot of different places, but I kept saying to myself, “I’m pretty sure this is the best coffee I’ve ever had!!”

I need more people to come here, try the coffee, and tell me that I’m not crazy.

I had the Cuban fare. OMG, so delicious! We are not big eaters but one “serving” was enough for 2.
Cute place, Cuban music playing, very enjoyable eating experience.

Walked in to a poor attitude from the young girl at the counter. She acted that it was a bother to help us. Ordered two latte’s and a croissant. The latte’s were both warm at best. The two girls were whispering to each other frequently. Not a friendly and warm atmosphere to relax in. This was Friday 10/4 @ 9:20 am. Wouldn’t go back.

Just received a response from the owner about my post. I never stated we had to wait to long for our order, I commented on the attitude of the person who waited on us, and the latte that we received was warm. Also the whispering that was between them both. I understand defending your staff, but again, it was attitude and product that was the problem. No worries, always other locations. Thank you for your quick reply!

I love busy bean! It’s been my favorite coffee shop since their opening. The staff is always friendly and has even memorized my order (I go there a lot if you couldn’t tell) I recommend it to everyone in the area!

It was great except for the person that took my order didn’t want to answer my questions at all. As if I was bothering them to ask about the menu. I’ll still go back regardless.

So excited to see a well run coffee shop in here! The girls at the counter were awesome, the coffee is great, food is so good, and they were super friendly about customizing what i wanted to order (I love when a POS actually lets employees do things!). A+ and glad to have a local place nearby

I went here today with a friend and it was really good! It was our first time here and I really enjoyed the food. They were really busy, definitely busier than usual but the woman who was serving us told us in advance so it wasn’t a problem.

Their menu is fairly simple with only several options for an entree and a few appetizers. They also do breakfast here as well but I haven’t had that yet.

I ordered the panini de cubano (Cuban panini) and it was really good! I would definitely come back again. My only issue was we had asked for sweet plantains, but the ones we were given were not yet ripened. Hopefully they will have sweet ones next time.

Kid-friendliness: Yes, it is kid friendly.

Food is very greasy, asked for no butter on my toast looked like they used a trowel to put it on. Asked for Ham in my burrito was difficult to find. Price are not cheap.

Being from Miami and not having Cuban food in many years. This is some of the best Cuban food I have eaten a long time. It reminds me of the authentic Cuban food that my wife’s Godmother makes. Even my kids are sometimes picky with food love it. Portions are big also. Once a gain a must go.
