When I got there no one was at the counter so I had to wait for for Zack. But soon enough he came and took my order. Got a latte and a cinnamon roll to go. Zack is knowledgeable on coffee drinks. Having done that job before lots of people don't know the difference between lattes and cappuccinos and teaching people on the differences is fun. The difference is everything is a latte except a cappuccino. Simple enough and Zack had it down. The coffee was good and tasted great. Got a medium 2 shot for $3, great price! The cinnamon roll was a little too pricey for its size. Going 5 stars on the coffee bar! I hope the restaurant has gotten better in the meantime.

I love that this location features a bagel sandwich, something that the location in Alice Drive doesn't have (listed on the menu) and something you don't see often down south. The sweets and smoothies are always good as well. The inside is as cozy as you could ask for in a cafe. Its convenient should you want to do some reading/remote work. And the staff are always really nice! Their service there is always some of the best I've received here in my short time here in Sumter. The only thing that bums me about this place is that they don't open on the weekend.

The muffins are probably my favorite dessert in general as they have so many flavors and they are huge! Many times, I've had a muffin for lunch and that was plenty. I also really like their grab-n-go style cooler where they have sandwiches as well as variety boxes with chicken salad or pimento cheese, fruits, crackers, and a dessert. The staff is always super friendly to me and accommodating! I've not had one food item from here that wasn't good! Try the new peaches and cream style milkshake! It is awesome! Would definitely recommend!

Inside, the ambiance is calm and relaxed, with hip jazz playing softly in the background. There's a mix of regular seating and a small bar section, plus a pleasant sitting area that should be great when the weather is nice. The staff were friendly and welcoming from the moment I walked in, and they were genuinely helpful with recommendations--particularly when I was deciding between drink options. I ended up with an egg and cheese sandwich on a Kaiser roll that came out steaming hot: the roll was light and fluffy, and the whole sandwich was simple but really well done. I also had a shot of espresso that arrived in a very nice presentation on a wooden board, paired with a side of sparkling water, which was a thoughtful touch and made the experience feel a bit special. On their recommendation I tried the honey lavender latte made with local spicy honey; it was unique, flavorful, and not something you see everywhere. Overall, Bean Bar feels like a low-key, well-put-together café with good parking, a relaxed vibe, kind staff, and drinks and food that show real care.

Very cute spot in Florence. BIG shared parking lot…read more Seems fairly accessible and seating is size/ability friendly. Loved the menu choices, which included a chaga matcha that I thoroughly enjoyed. Not many options for breakfast, but what they have is good. They have "topping" options as well, I had the strawberry jalapeño one, not enough jalapeño for me personally. Staff super friendly & they are pet friendly too, dog bowls are outside along with their outdoor seating option. In addition to drinks, simple syrups, and coffee, they also sell jewelry, totes, etc. Would come back and visit when I'm back in town!

Reach out the management online and the bastards kept asking the same question including a receipt the receptionist didn't even know how to give me. I never received my money back, an apology or my food I paid for. The people there always seem to be clueless when I go there. I've gone to the location on three occasions and they are always nice but no one ever comprehends or get my order right and it's not complicated just the things that are advertised! I definitely would NOT recommend this location to anyone visiting Sumter. I moved to Sumter and was not satisfied with this location and Florence or Columbia is too far so I just don't purchase at all! Save you time, energy and money.
