Waterbean is spacious, they have indoor seating as well as covered outdoor seating. I was waited on immediately and asked the barista for his suggestion. He suggested the Bro-stachio Latte (brown sugar & pistachio). I received it within minutes. It was absolutely delicious. Every sip made me happy. I was just getting a cup to go, but it's an awesome place to stay for a while. The ambiance is perfect.

The espresso brownie was just okay. Dogs aren't allowed inside, not even service dogs, which was disappointing, though they did offer a pup cup (whipped cream). We sat outside.

They also put a chocolate covered roasted espresso bean (CCREB) on the little indention on the lid in case you need MORE coffee and chocolate! (and who doesn't). This location seemed new. It had a front entrance but at this location, most people enter in the rear. That's where the parking lot is located. The rear entrance is smaller and harder to see as it's a narrow corridor to get in. It gets lost with the other entrances and stairs. Once inside, it's easy to walk to the front to order or pick up your mobile order. They have some comfy looking seating and there were a bunch of others working and meeting there. All I get at this chain is hot mochas, so I can't comment on anything else. But I'd imagine the other stuff is good.

What a cute little coffee shop! I visited here when it was a cocktail bar, so I was surprised (in a…read moregood way) to see it transformed into a coffee spot and decided to stop in. They have a full coffee bar, plus a grab-and-go fridge stocked with beer, sodas, and energy drinks. There's also a nice selection of pastries, including muffins, crumb cake, scones, cheese danishes, and other sweet treats. We ordered a cold brew, a cheese danish, and a crumb cake, and everything was fresh and delicious. One unique feature is the attached dispensary, where they offer THC beverages along with other products. The coffee shop itself has plenty of seating for couples or small groups, and we had no trouble finding street parking. Definitely worth a visit if you're looking for a cozy place to grab coffee and a pastry!

It's roomy inside with plenty of seating, making it a nice option for working or hanging out. Staff was very friendly and service was quick. They have a variety of baked goods to try.

I did enjoy the garden party, it was pretty too. Parking is plentiful and they are open until about 5, which is nice.
