Owner and everyone who works there have always been very friendly and the pastries are fresh and delicious. I'd recommend the crumb cake.

I'd expect to see this bookstore cafe in somewhere like in Ogunquit, Burlington, Bar Harbor, Austin, or Asheville? Super cute place with an interesting, eclectic selection of used books. They have a little coffee shop/cafe at the front - and there's an area where they have talks and live music on certain days. The people who work there are so incredibly friendly and helpful. I think there's a cute little outdoor area, but it was closed last time I visited. Hope to drop by here next time I'm in Staten Island!

I majority depend on Yelp considering I am not a local Staten Islander. I came across Jackie and I was sold by her extensive photo gallery on her website and the wonderful reviews. I spoke with Frank, he set up the appointments to meet with Jackie. We were given her undivided attention and got a chance to taste the many scrumptious variety of flavors. We reached out to shake hands after an agreement and she in turn gave us hugs which was very touching. I felt like we were family at that point. She took every detail and created my perfect engagement cake!

She sat with us for an hour tasting cakes (at least 12 slices) and flipping through hundreds of her photos. We pieced together our favorite parts of a few cakes and we designed our own. The pricing is reasonable and cake was delicious! I completely trust her with our cake for our special day.I highly recommend this place. I will update this review with a picture of our cake.

The pastries are consistently a highlight - always incredibly fresh, perfectly made, and so delicious.

I adore the atmosphere here; it's so cozy and cute, making it the perfect spot whether I want to surf the web, catch up with a friend, dive into a book, or just enjoy a coffee. Speaking of enjoying things, their menu is fantastic! I recently had the waffles with strawberries, chocolate syrup, and tons of whipped cream - the portion was huge and every bite was absolutely mouthwatering. Bean & Leaves is a true gem! Please stop by if you're in the area, you can thank me later. *wink, wink* Oh, and Free Wifi is always a plus!

We hired Beans & Leaves to provide a coffee bar for our daughter's engagement brunch, and they were…read moreabsolutely fantastic. The morning of our event there was snow on the ground, and Danielle, one of the owners, personally called early to confirm everything was still on. She shoveled herself out and drove in from New Jersey to make sure the coffee bar was set up and ready. That level of dedication and professionalism truly stood out. The coffee bar itself was a huge hit. They offered espresso drinks, cappuccinos, flavored lattes, oat milk options, and iced selections -- all made fresh to order. The quality was excellent and truly café-level, not just standard event coffee. The iced lattes were especially popular with our guests. The setup was polished and professional, the baristas were friendly and efficient, and it added such a fun, elevated touch to the brunch. If you're planning a wedding event, shower, or special celebration, I highly recommend Beans & Leaves. Exceptional service, delicious coffee, and a team that genuinely cares about your event.
