Drove through for coffee one morning while in town for the day. Drive up service, this little coffee shack on the end of town has a drive up window with menu boards as you approach. The staff were friendly and kind, took our beverage orders and got us on out way quickly. There is usually a line but it does move expeditiously. 4 Stars Good coffee here in a multitude of ways 01202 read more

Gave this place 3 stars awhile back but over the last few years it's gotten drastically worse. Everytime I've gone for the last couple years I've been the worst tasting coffee I've ever had in my life. The most bitter and burnt tasting espresso and brews I've had. So I decided to change my 3 stars to 1 since this place is solely a coffee joint. I will say the service is ok, it wasn't awful it was baseline. read more

I love the iced Mexican Mocha coffee! Great customer service every single time I go. I love their variety of coffee drinks and pastries. It's a must try! read more

This place was recommended by locals as the best place to get coffee so we thought we'd give it a try. Employees were friendly and pricing was very fair. Drinks were delicious and I would definitely recommend this place! read more

Such a cute drive-thru coffee shop! It was recommended to us by one of the locals at Lakeport. Cute town, cute coffee shop, delicious coffee! I got the explosion which is a blended coffee drink with ice cream. Yumm!!! read more

Great seasonal flavors, happy employees, great customer service. The line goes fast. The other day we only got in-line to get a blueberry muffin for our kids (they love the treats) and they had just sold the last muffin. The owner came out and gave our kids a FREE donut and an awesome smile. It was great. It's little business like this in the area that make all the difference read more

I love the girls that work at jitter Bean, I go there a few times a week to start my day they take the time to remember the names of my children, and what I order. They are always friendly, they are so sweet and they sure do know how to make a good cup of coffee. Personal favorite white mocha! I am terrible with names, but Rebecca you rock and jitter Bean would not be what it is without you there. Also the young lady with the tree tattoo on her arm. You are also one of those super friendly happy faces that just know how to start the day off. Thank you girls for always giving me a great cup of coffee and smiles to start my day!! read more

Jitter Bean is always a stop when visiting Humboldt. Whether it's taking the grandkids for a lil bean or getting a hot mocha or tea for myself. The drive thru can be packed and the customer service is always superb. The baristas make you feel like you're the only person in line by striking up conversation and are always smiling. Also, I'd rather support a local business (with the best bean) that supports our young men and women. read more

Been coming here off and on for 3 years and the girls are so sweet. They always remember me and they remember my drink. Often times they just see me in the line waiting for my turn, and by the time I get to the window my drink is ready. Coffee is great, service is great, and the staff is awesome. read more

Great drinks! My boyfriend and I have been going here often because of convenience and we fell in love with their Mexican Mocha. Much better than Starbucks. Their English Tea Inn Latte wasn't bad. Hot chocolate is good. The frappes I've had during the summer were amazing. They are located next to an exit to the highway also and you do not have to be in a vehicle to order from their drive thru. Great service! read more

There was a big line to this place which shouldn't discourage you....this is because their drinks are yummy!!! We also had the cheese and chocolate muffin and it was very tasty. read more

Cute little drive thru coffee house! The workers are friendly and the explosions are blended coffee with ice cream. Perfect for treating yourself & taste is better than Starbucks. I will definitely be back! read more

Not a friendly place! girls are snobs at the window and their drinks are mediocre at best plus overpriced. I ordered a blended chai they gave it to me it looked strange/too icy.I had to drive away because I was going to work. I called them and complained they offered me a free drink when I got back to accept the free drink girl gave me attitude and questioned me extensively. And gave me another free mediocre drink. Will not return obviously do not need or want return customers. read more

Jitter Bean - this is the crappy blended drink they made for me that was full of ice this was seven dollars - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Lakeport, California

If I could give less than a star I would. Very disappointed because I have been a regular, very well paying customer spending thousands of dollars here over the last two years, as well as tipping more than generously because having been a server myself, I understand tips are what get someone by on a minimum wage job. Since coming under new ownership, and losing most of their original girls, this place has gone way down hill. Today was the last straw and I will GLADLY take my business elsewhere. I won't stand for being yelled at and treated like shit from one of the baristas who clearly doesn't like me, (which she has made clear many times before in the way she has treated me in the past.) As soon as she approached my car she was incredibly rude and snarky. Mind you I had already paid for it on my debit card, and she walked up to my car 20 minutes later, and the first thing out of her mouth is 'you either need to give me 1.80 more or I'm not giving this to you.' So I asked for an explanation of why my drink suddenly is almost 9 dollars when it used to be 5. And her attitude and rudeness continued, and her answer was you can either pay it or I'm not giving you the drink. Then screaming never mind I'm refusing service to you! When I had already paid for it on my debit card! So what ensued was her being incredibly rude, loud, and just plain mean, even as I was holding the extra two dollars in my hand. And yes, I said, ''you're such a b****,'' because that's exactly what she was being. And I get businesses needing to raise prices, but that's almost a hundred percent increase! But what I won't stand for is being treated like a child and getting screamed at by some girl holding a nasty grudge. (This doesn't apply to all the workers though, most are very nice and kind, but this bad apple in the bunch is enough that I won't be returning.) Also, about a year ago, I encountered the same type of rudeness with the same girl, and I didn't return for a few months, but wanted to give the place another chance because I get people have bad days, but clearly I was wrong. It's important to note that I have also had one of the other workers apologize to me and tell me straight up that this girl doesn't like me. read more

I've been meaning to write this. We went here for the first time a month or so ago. This place is so good, it is now our go to coffee place when we go up to the lake. Beverages were great and the people were super friendly read more

I love jitter bean! The coffee is always spot on and I'm always served with a smile. The only downside is the driveway, it's a bit bumpy. Otherwise I am satisfied! read more

I absolutely loved the coffees here, but i have completely stopped going due to their loyalty/reward system was changed. Ironically, the more loyal are, the more you get penalized. The more money you spend the less you get back. Sad because i got 2 coffees (cost $11) every single day for a very long time, but now i don't go at all. The service was great and all the people working are really friendly. I like to leave tips for good service but is just too expensive now. That being said, if they were to improve the rewards i would go back in an instant. read more

I love this little drive-thru! They are speedy when it comes to making the drinks and everything is delicious! One of the girls even memorized my order! read more

Fast and friendly. Pretty tasty. The prices arent too bad and they have a drive through which is awesome. Not too many complaints here. Good coffee read more

I go to Jitter Bean all the time because of the convenience of their drive-thru. I like the coffee and the girls there are great!! Other reviews complain about the waiting time, which can be frustrating, but if you're in a hurry you probably shouldn't risk hitting up a popular coffee joint in the first place. Sometimes I get my coffee in a few minutes and sometimes it takes 10+ minutes. This is a small business that gets a lot of attention, so sometimes you just have to wait (which I don't mind doing). I'd say my only complaint is the inconsistency with the drinks. The quality changes depending on which girl is making it. But, overall, love this place. read more

Great drive through coffee shop...beats Starbucks or anywhere in town by far.I always take my out of town guests here.Friendly staff, quick service, great homemade baked goods! They even have juice boxes for the kids..rarely do I pass this place without stopping!! read more

So irritated and never coming back.. Don't offer/ serve breakfast burritos if your baristas are okay with handing them over practically frozen still!! Even AFTER we asked them to cut them in half to ensure that they are cooked all the way. We sat there for almost 15 min and you still hand over cold food?? This is the third time so I'm done. DON'T ORDER THE BREAKFAST BURRITOS. read more

Our 2 coffees ace 1 hour cocoa were hot, fresh, and deliciou! Excellent service, she even came outside to get our order and start it. The BEST coffee in the area and we've tried them all. read more

Should be called Bitter Bean. We ordered caramel fraps didnt taste any where close to what is supposed to. Was so bitter. Was more a caramel crapachino read more

BEST coffee! Always great and they are fast and you dont even have to get out of the car! What more could you ask for?!

Horrible coffee!!!! Had to wait until we got home to add creamer. $5 coffee's and we had to add our own creamer. Worst coffee I've ever bought read more

We ordered two caramel macchiatos each with an extra shot the total we paid was $10.32 as well we gave them a $3 tip and neither one of my coffees were even close to the top of the cup of the cup one of them was at least 2 inches from the top of a cup we were very disappointed especially since we ordered an extra shot in each cup of coffee we won't be returning read more

I have tried this place four times and have been disappointed every time. Each time the coffee is very bitter and not well prepared. The price is high for what you get. I kept giving it a try as one of my good friends loves it, but I will not partake again. read more

Love this coffee shack. Friendly service with smiles. Great coffees too. Just hope they get those crater pot holes fixed soon before I get stuck in one! read more
