Inside has 3 rooms; bar area, and two dining rooms. Mediterranean tapas inspired menu- we shared some small plates. The grilled octopus, chicken souvlaki, kefta pita( my favorite) and Moroccan hot honey sliders. Everything was delicious and the drinks complimented the entrees. My Spanish gin and tonic was very different (good) and beautifully prepared. My wife had lemon- lavender tequila and Paloma and both were refreshing. Luis was a terrific server who made some recommendations and knew the menus. A worthwhile find that deserves another visit- especially during happy hours.

I got a cake and a croissant sandwich, the cake was very hard to eat, but it's very tasty. I got a smoked salmon, croissant sandwich and it was very yummy. The cheesecake would dense and creamy, pair perfectly with the jam on top. My sister-in-law got her Matcha and she tried it and it was not that good. Plus she found a bug in her drink. They were able to issue her refund. So maybe don't get the Matcha The second time we've been here it got more busy. It's harder to find parking, but I got ahi tuna, it tasted good at first, but there were some greens taste too leafy that I don't know how to describe. It's not my personal favorite. Maybe it is for other people, but the tuna was pretty fresh. The honey cake was the best. I also got a white sangria. It was very refreshing, but don't forget to stir it before drink it because the top was taste like white wine and the bottom was overly sweet. We will definitely come back next time when we visit again

I've shopped at Publix Super Market at Longboat Key for convenience, but the pricing here is beyond…read moreunreasonable. Everything is extremely expensive--far above what you'd expect, even compared to other Publix locations nearby. And no, simply blaming it on being "on an island" doesn't justify these markups. This is the only grocery store on Longboat Key, and it genuinely feels like that lack of competition is being taken advantage of. Everyday essentials are priced so high that it feels less like convenience and more like exploitation. I understand businesses need to cover costs, but there's a line--and this store crosses it. Residents and visitors shouldn't feel like they're being gouged just to buy basic groceries. I really hope Publix reevaluates its pricing here, because right now it leaves a bad impression and feels out of touch with the community it serves.

In town for my birthday, decided I wanted something sweet besides cake. Stumbled upon this little…read morespot, the man at the stand was friendly and welcoming. We got the strawberry cheesecake, and the Bavarian donuts. First thought, I wasn't a fan of fresh HOT mini donuts in styrofoam. Not a great idea... I guess for the price... 2nd thought the toppings aren't "fresh" per say, they are squeezed from a frosting tube. I kind of was expecting like fresh strawberries, strawberry jam etc. anyways... I would give it a 3/10 it was extremely sweet, and very thick. :( was not a fan of it... however the Bavarian donuts were better, although again a little too sweet and tasted processed. I would stick to maybe the classic which is just donuts with powder sugar.

Such a delicious treat! Get the largest size- you will eat them all. I wish we had these in CT.read more

What a pleasant surprise when we entered; it looks more like an artists' living room than your typical coffee shop/restaurant. The owner, Jason, was a gracious and friendly host. He made some suggestions and we chose two wraps. My wife had the raspberry turkey and absolutely loved the flavor and remarked how the raspberries brought another dimension to her sandwich. I had the Chicken Cesar which I thought was pretty remarkable. We also ordered ice coffee which came with ice that is frozen from ice coffee as to not dilute your drink. Pretty cool! Our total bill was $14.00 and if you check in on Yelp, you receive another 10% discount. Like Todd R., I similarly appreciate small local businesses and encourage people to support them. After speaking with Jason, I learned he is a Navy veteran who served two combat tours in the Middle East...even more the reason for me to laud his establishment. Green Beans is definitely worth the stop!

It was a toss up between a few but I ended up getting the salted maple chai seasonal. They're cute inside and very close from the water so it's a nice stop before going on a walk. Their to go cups aren't anything special so Instagram can't see their cute logo but that's ok. The flavor of the chai wasn't my favorite simply because wise I couldn't taste the syrup, so I was a little disappointed because I was really excited to try the new flavors.
