Located in a boujie neighborhood. Peaceful, quiet, & very aesthetic. Great study spot (if you're rich lol) The server was very warm and sweet and she did an incredible job helping me pick a drink. Went with the Freddo (special drink) - aka Iced Greek Cappuccino + Milk Gloss. Cost ~$9 Rating 7.9/10- very acquired taste but cute to look at. TBH couldn't even finish it but I appreciated the effort & love the server put into it Been to several cafes in the area to compare to this so: - I disliked how THERE IS NO FREE WIFI (you have to be part of a club with some token something) - YOU HAVE TO PAY $5 to use their study lounge space(or be part of that club and it comes with the access) - aka there is NO FREE INDOOR SEATING only outdoors, so come ready to grab and go Tbh I ended up not even staying there for long and left way sooner than expected due to the no wifi & my hotspot wasn't working yooo :( Overall the place is ok. Just not my vibe atm cuz it gives you're only going to enjoy our services if you have money or part of a "special club"

The space

Small shop, it really is a grab and go. The service was nice, there's only one person working so if there are multiple customers it can take some time. From the reviews, I was under the impression there was a separate area where patrons could sit besides the co-working space, but there is none. I had my latte to go, which was pretty good.

bean There is a small, grab-and-go coffee shop located in a quiet residential neighborhood just 2 minutes away from Princeton Junction station. It's one of those places that you discover by chance, but once you do, you feel lucky you found a hidden gem. I only found out about this place because I was scrolling around on Google Maps and happened to find this spot. The location is super low-key, the vibe is cozy, and the baristas are incredibly warm and welcoming. They will happily walk you through all the different kinds of roasts and drinks they make and explain what makes each one special. This is a real coffee shop, where quality and craft matter more than churning out generic lattes. My personal favorite drink is the spicy maya mocha. It was the first drink I ever ordered from bean There and it was fantastic. They also serve a variety of seasonal drinks, acai bowls, tea, baked goods, and more. Pros: * Convenient location near Princeton Junction station and shops (2-3 minutes away) * Plenty of free parking * Extremely high quality drinks with a solid variety, as well as seasonal beverages * Great variety of other items like acai bowls, baked goods, tea, etc. * They offer a $39.99/month club membership where you can get unlimited drip coffee for locals/regulars * Super friendly baristas who make the shop feel welcoming and the community is extremely tight-knit * Uses Clover, so you can earn points with purchases * Some outdoor seating is available Cons: * Prices are on the higher side for a coffee shop (most 12-16oz drinks cost between $5-$8) * Some add-ons like whipped cream cost extra, so you should check Clover/website for details * No indoor seating unless you're a member of the connected coworking space (from Here) * Very limited hours: only open on weekdays from 8 AM - 3 PM Overall, this is my favorite coffee shop in the Princeton area. I don't get coffee too often, but if I do, bean There is my first choice.

Quality, handcrafted iced coffee.

Small, grab and go coffee shop located in a residential community. Plenty of parking. Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Quality, handcrafted, iced coffee. Tasty egg & chicken sausage sandwich on warm brioche. Lovely outdoor seating area.

12 oz. Spicy Maya Mocha and vanilla oatmilk iced latte
Grace S.

Bean There was absolutely amazing!! I got a spicy maya mocha oat milk latte and it was delicious. My friend got an oatmilk vanilla latte - also delicious. We LOVED the choice of can or cup! The owner (I believe) is sweet as can be & so so personable. It's a cute little shop that does not get nearly enough praise and attention! Definitely will be back next time I'm in the area!

Love the vibes of this small to go coffee bar. Very friendly staff who are friendly and knowledgeable. Had the freddo and dalgona would deff recommend both! Looking forward to my next visit just wish they were open on weekends.

Iced coffee with espresso whipped cream
Leena S.

Bean there cafe is located within a small residential community in Princeton Junction. They serve coffee, tea, açaí bowl as well as fresh pastries. The service is very friendly and accommodating. They occupy a great space with outdoor seating as well as indoor workspaces with everything from private rooms to large open floor plan accommodations. We ordered several iced coffees and an açaí bowl. The winning ingredient on the iced coffee was the homemade espresso whipped cream. I could literally eat a bowl of it. The prices are a little high. The medium sized açaí bowl was $10, but the size was very small. The whipped cream also added an additional $2 on top of the $4 coffee. Overall, it was a great experience at a new establishment, which surprisingly has been here a year.

Good options. Great service & very nice! It is a grab n go ambiance. Definitely would recommend. I had a smoothie but their coffee looked like what they were known for

16oz Iced Coconut Cloud Matcha

Good quality coffee and service. Not rushed, all worked through and you can tell effort is put into the drinks and how they're made. My fiance and I got a cold brew and the cloud matcha with coconut water and we'll definitely be coming back. The coconut water really makes you feel like you're being transported to the tropics.

Alfalfa is always a good idea and I am never not in the mood for a delicious, giant salad or…read moreinsanely stuffed wrap. I think I have been to every (East coast) location and I love them all. But I do sometimes forget that they are also a cafe and the perfect spot, if you can find a table, to take out your laptop and get some work! I stopped in while in Princeton for work and not only needed wifi but needed sustenance. I got the Far East Salad, one of my recent faves, and an iced matcha latte and took a seat on their little wall of stairs. -Wifi was strong -Matcha latte was refreshing and delicious -Far East salad was soooo good! I love the crunch broccoli, the flavorful tofu, the dressing. If you haven't tried it, I highly recommend. The team is friendly and fast and brings the food right over to you. I have always been a huge Alfalfa fan so I can safely say you will love them.

So excited to see Alfalfa within walking distance of my Yelp event!…read more Yelp actually introduced me to Alfalfa! Thank you Yelp!! After the Yelp event, took a stroll through Princeton University and then stopped at Alfalfa for their most delicious brownie with peanut butter topping! Such an amazing combo!! Love their get inspired notes!! And that al.fal.fa Definition: The feeling of joy through balance. Join their reward program! Get points with each purchase! Street metered parking!! Request please have some decaf options!! Thank you for your consideration!! Happy Friday!!
