We tried their seasonal lattes along with a bacon, egg & cheese croissant and a sausage bagel. Everything was really good and came out quickly. We were back on the road in no time! Definitely a pleasant surprise and a great option when you need a quick breakfast and coffee on the go.

Let's not mention the socially responsible mission of the shop to help the Ecuadorian coffee farmers support their community. Nor the incredibly moreish cinnamon rolls, warmed and perfecting dripping with icing (of which I had three over the course of week). And certainly not the white chocolate cranberry scone (recommend by the barista that day they were out of the rolls) which was so delicious I wish the trip had been longer. Let's also not highlight the young baristas who must have thought this obvious out-of-towner a total nut for chatting to the locals and being particularly indecisive about which farmer's beans to purchase. Let's focus on the coffee. The coffee was spectacular. The perfect aroma, body, temperature and taste. Everything about it was far superior to any Starbucks, Pete's or over priced independent coffee shop back in L.A. With easy parking, a great rustic yet modern vibe, I'll certainly be making a bee line for Z Beans the next time to go back to Macon.

She is happy to provide service with a smile and give students encouragement while facing tough finals and projects. She also remembers regulars' orders, so service is quick in those early morning rushes. The coffee is Starbucks, which is nice. Unfortunately, they don't take Starbucks gift cards or the app. The food is also good, especially the grilled cheese sandwiches. Lines can be kinda long in the mornings and around lunch, but that can be worked around. The Side Bar kept me going through 3 years of law school, so it's a winner in my book!
