I have been going to bean barn longer than I could even remember . Seasonal drinks are the best , fun names and good flavors . Have never had a bad drink or an unpleasant experience in 20ish years . read more

Sorry but I don't like having the police called on me when I go to an establishment and actually BUY something! The cop who showed told me he was called because the workers thought I was homeless. I'm not and don't like being profiled, not to also mention that being homeless is not a crime! The only thing I did was buy an iced americano, got some water for my dog( it was a hot day), and sat down in some shade near the coffee shack. The cop was cool and gave me and my dog a ride home. The workers there, not so cool read more

What's the point of saying you open at a certain time when you aren't actually open at the time any of the days? Seems like you need to change your hours or get people that show up on time read more

Worst drink I've ever had from a coffee place! Ordered a cappuccino and it was so weak I was wondering if the espresso was in there. Terrible. Whoever thinks this place is good is out of their mind. Complete waste of money, don't go here! read more

This is a really cute coffee shop that we tried on our way to Tahoe. It was very tasty coffee and we will definitely go back again.

I come here every day before work. They have the sweetest girls working here that always set an amazing mood for the rest of my day!

11/18/2022: The coffee tasted watered down, burnt, severely tired . . . Sadly, it just tasted like old, "military boot" coffee, i.e., the coffee wasn't fresh either. FYI: I bought coffee at 1:00 PM; there's no excuse not making a new batch of coffee. Dutch Brothers makes FRESH, French Press coffee for EVERY customer-just look at the times I bought coffee from Dutch Brothers via my photos! Unfortunately, I really thought I would become a frequent customer, since Bean Barn is literally down the street from my house; however, I'm reticent spending money on old, "military boot" coffee: Believe me when I state the coffee tastes like tired, old, "military boot" coffee because I served in the USAF; I KNOW WHEN COFFEE JUST SUCKS!!!! The coffee served tasted as PERCOLATED and not made using a French Press; ironically, Jack In The Box makes better coffee than Bean Barn! Therefore, I will adamantly refuse returning to Bean Barn purchasing anything! BTW: I threw the coffee down my kitchen drain after drinking a couple of sips; you can't doctor coffee that literally tastes like pond scum~YUK!!!!! read more

Bean barn is a family favorite for us! From their coffee, to their smoothies, you really can't go wrong with anything there! I've had great experiences with different servers, and they're always helpful when giving recommendations! Whenever I'm in the area, bean barn is a must have stop! read more

This is a great little spot with wonderful coffee! They are always nice here and greet you with a smile.

Bean barn has the BEST coffee drinks of anywhere in the entire county. I would even go so far as to say it's the best in the entire state. They have a great menu with flavor options for just about any and every craving and preference imaginable. They also rotate seasonal flavors, so be sure stop by and check those out! The staff is also always incredibly friendly. Possibly one of my most favorite things about them too is that they keep a gift card on hand for first responders and law enforcement. Anyone can ask at anytime to add money to it, which I often do. A drive thu coffee place with an amazing menu and they give back - what more can you ask for? read more

Had a weird interaction here about a week ago. Pulled in and there was a diamond plated work truck which was turned off, wheels cocked towards the neighboring building (away from the direction of the line) and - by all indications - any sensible person would obviously think it was parked, unattended and not in line. But as I pulled in I realized the car in front of it was in a position which made me wonder if the truck was indeed in line. So I stopped short, maybe a quarter ways up next to the truck where I was trying to figure out what's going on. As I sat there one of the young girls stomped out towards me with a very bitchy death stare, very aggressively and chirped, "Are you in front of the car behind you?!" I'm like.. "Uhhh, what? Yes?" She's begins berating me about how the line is supposed to snake around in some weird fashion in front of the other buildings. There are no signs indicating this or anything, how the hell am I supposed to know this?! It was a very innocent and what should've been a very understandable situation. She's almost yelling at me about it. I explain sorry I just pulled in and--look at this truck, how was supposed to know it's in line???? It totally looks parked! I should've turned around and left. The line moves, truck fires up and, naturally, it was there before me so I waited as it pulled up. As it does I notice a young girl (about the same age) driving it and I put 2 and 2 together: Seems like chick in the truck texted her friend working there apparently accusing me of trying to cut in line or something...?! Each time the truck stopped, she'd turn it off, put on the brake, etc. Truck girl and coffee girl ham it up, take their sweet time, all but confirming my suspicions. Finally I get to the window expecting some kind of apology, or at least a friendly greeting. No. Very short--what do you want? I try to smooth it over explaining hey I had no idea, I wasn't trying to cut or something... (wtf?) No apology, not the slightest hint of friendlyness. Whatever. I'll get better coffee elsewhere in the future. Wasn't a fan of the "white supremacy in disguise" blue line stickers anyways. A "good ol boys coffee hut" I guess. In response to owner: I came in from the opposite direction. And for the record, I also support law enforcement. However - just like they hold us accountable - they should be held to at least the same standards. "Blue lives matter" BS was created in response to outcries by the black community for this not existing. Sporting those flags says "F black people", not "we support police." But pretend all you need. I'm sure you're already well aware of this since you didn't comment on the white supremacy part. read more

Usually Bean Barn is the bomb! Both locations are always on point (especially the Oreo mochas!) but today my husband picked up our coffees and this was his americano... almost all water. Disappointed read more

The Bean Barn - Americano? Or coffee flavored ice water? - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Placerville, California

-Blended Butterfinger blast was great! Already comes with 1 shot for small size, I added 2+ shots to it and it still tasted perfect, not too strong tasting w/all those espresso shots, very balanced. -Blended strawberry shortcake was yummy, kinda too sweet, seasonal drink tho. -Oreo cookie frappe: pretty good, not the best I've ever had tho. read more

I have been passing this area a lot more recently & I would always notice that there would be a huge line. I drove by today & noticed that there was only 3 cars so I figured I would give it a try. I thought the price for an Medium Blended Oreo Mocha was fair but I did not realize that a medium is huge! It was delicious & I think this might me my go too in Placerville instead of Starbucks! read more

Customer service was great! Unfortunately there was not such great drivers in their lot. Considering this is a drive thru only location that makes a big difference. I had their red Bull and a bagel both were fresh and yummy! read more

Surprisingly large standard drink menu, and rotating seasonal items. but always a long line, and meh scones, go for the muffins instead

Everything is amazing , the staff is great... 4 stars because I'm SOOOO mad about not being able to order a large Red Bull twist... just charge more ... read more

Recently, I went back to my local bean barn off Missouri Flat Road and I was confronted with the same attitude that stopped me from going here before, as soon as I pulled up to pay at the window. The same girl with dark brown hair gave me attitude from the second i pulled up and was rude to me until I pulled away. The blonde girl making my drink had terrible customer service. Tried to support local business but NEVER spending my money here again!!! read more

I support this local business who employee's young people (high school seniors) and keep the $$$ local Bean Barn coffee is fresh with lot of flavors and varieties and is better than the big chain company. customer service is excellent. All the barista are nice and friendly. Maybe they should add some food varieties. Toffee coffeee with soy milk is my favorite. Positive: Customer service Choices of drink Location Negative: Lack of local and organic food choices inconsistency in the drink based on who's working, sometimes too much coffee powder No fresh food, (they should team up with local bakery to offer their products) read more

I have been coming to bean barn for a good 7 years now. I live the chai. But more recently, i have been getting an iced toffee coffee woth almond milk.....i die a little every time i drink it. So amazing!!!! My boyfriend is hooked on the red bull twist. He has paired almost every flavor with kiwi and has loved all of them. We go every tuesday and wednesday (our days off). We cant start our days without. We need one in cameron park! I work for. Major coffee chain. This is my secret place away from work! I am in love! Thank you to all the gals who are so helpful and friendly! I appreciate all the kind things you all do! read more

The Bean Barn - Iced toffee coffee with almond milk and twisted red bull with kiwi and pomegranate. Large is HUGE!!! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Placerville, California

The large is pretty great , the only downside is it's probably not real fruit there smoothies are super sweet and taste like pure sugar . Also the girls wear crop tops in there , not very work appropriate. Great little shack but maybe the wrong type of workers in there , wait in line was long .. (was not hot when I went , you hire kids and the stuff they talk about . Definitely won't be going there again ) read more

I got coffee here today after not visiting for a while, and it's the worst decision I made today. Both me and my partner found plastic pieces in our drinks. don't go here unless you want contaminated coffee. read more

Always open when no one else is. Power outage? they're open. Storms? they're open. Starbucks is closed? Bean barn is open. There are more drink possibilities than any shop in town. not to mention the flavors you can infuse any drink with. infinite possibilities on flavors. read more

Great service, great hours (open when most everything else was closed on Sunday eve!) and great iced mocha!

Love this place! Every single drink I've gotten from them has been really good and made to perfection! The baristas are always so nice and welcoming! I love the Oreo Cookie Mocha and it's soooo good, especially if you like sweeter drinks! Definitely highly recommend! read more

For some reason I thought I already wrote a review about this place, but I guess not. Anyway, if I remember correctly, this little place was great. I ordered a toffee coffee, which was delicious. The customer service was awesome as well. I haven't been back, as I live in El Dorado Hills, but I'm sure the next time I stop in Placerville & craving a coffee, I will come here again. Great experience! read more

The Bean Barn - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Placerville, California

Love bean barn! Drinks are consistent and tasty. They offer bagels and pastries which is awesome. The baristas are always kind and professional! The wait is never long. Overall a great place to stop. Bonus points for being a small business. It always feels better spending my money here than the larger chains. read more

My boyfriend really loves this place. I think I would like it more of the coffee wasn't so darn sweet. It's more like a dessert and I feel like I may go into a diabetic coma! Underneath all of the syrups and sugar, I can tell that the coffee is really good. I typically add another shot to my drink so I can taste it more. Next time I'll ask if they can make it less sweet. Every time I've gone, the baristas have always been very sweet. This particular day, I grabbed two muffins (one banana and one blueberry) for my kids because we were headed back to Reno and on a time crunch. (Needed a quick breakfast!) I took little nibbles of both muffins. They were REALLY good. My favorite was the banana. They offer a wide variety of iced, blended, hot, and smoothie drinks. I visit this area quite often to visit my boyfriend and this little coffee place is always on the agenda. Highly recommended by this coffee snob! read more

Love this place. I'm allergic to chocolate but they have awesome smoothies. I still get the black and white mocha blended when I'm in town and deal with the stomach oains....It's that good!! read more

Better than starbux! I like stopping here on my way to work when I'm in a rush and didn't make coffee at home. Very friendly staff! When there is a line it moves pretty quick. read more

Like I love this place so much it's on my list of things to do, is to open one up out where I live in Las Vegas!!! I come by here every time I am in town visiting. There is no other place like bean barn.... best coffee drinks ever period read more

Love these little places! I frequent both locations on the weekends and always make sure to bring my patience- they make great coffee of course there's going to be a line- totally worth the wait. I wish they'd open more locations! Great staff - they're always super friendly. read more

I can't say I'm a fan of this place now. I was so excited to get a hot cup of coffee on this frigid day so when I pulled in behind a slate gray car I was willing to wait. After about 3 minutes of waiting I realized this girl wasn't even ordering coffee. She and the employee of the bean barn were sitting there chatting and laughing. I get it. Its fun to visit your friends at their place of employment to say "hi", but you are damn sure I step out of the way so they can assist the next customer if I myself am not one. Not only did the girl acknowledge me, but she continued to check in her mirror that I was still there. Finally after 5 minutes, realizing I wasn't going to be helped in any sort of timely fashion, I backed my car up and left, disappointed, angry and coffeeless. Don't waste your time. Go somewhere where they are eager to help a paying customer. read more

Love this little pit stop. Almond milk is an option. Yay! My kids like the chocolate eclipse.

Good coffee, nice staff but very inconsistent with pastries and breakfast items. Also, the quality of the breakfast items is poor. They are Costco muffins (often more than a day old) and very little variety. They have bagels, but they are just the store bought cheap ones. I have let the staff know this repeatedly, and they have spoken with the owner, but I have heard she is not very receptive to customers requests. Also, this morning there were no breakfast items at all (which is not the first time this has happened). read more

Everything I could ever want in a drive through coffee shop! Bean barn is fast, friendly, inexpensive, and Sooooo much tastier than sbux! Also, the baristas always try to go the extra mile! read more

Oh my goodness! I haven't been to this place in about seven years when I was in high school and let me just say that nothing has changed. Everything is delicious I just got a toffee coffee and it was amazing it is amazing because I'm drinking it right now and I can't stop. read more

I like this place. Its small business which is better than chain coffee and I know my money supports a local person and not a corporation. I order the "screamer" for my breakfast to start the day a few days a week when i'm starving. Its good enough and gives me energy; although im skeptical about its reports of being healthy. The girls working the counter are friendly and seem to like their job. Nice little stand and i'm happy to give them a few bucks for their services. read more

The girls are super friendly and always know what I want before I even get to the window. My favorite is the peach ice tea.

Coffee is okay, although I prefer Peet's or Starbucks for the same price. What I don't like is that they are charging more for almond milk than they advertise on their price charts. You don't realize it until they tell you the amount at the window. When I asked why the drink was more than I calculated, the girl said it was because the almond milk was more than what is posted on the signs. Nice. That's called false advertising. I may try this place one more time and see if they charge me the posted amount for almond milk (which is already almost a dollar extra than regular milk). If they overcharge me, I won't go back after that and may report them. I'm not sure if the girl working the cash register pocketed that money or if the price truly went up by the owner. read more
