    Thank you Alex for excellent customer service making my iced mocha coffee. I also bought a Human Bean glass jar that my mocha was in. Love it! See you again. A five star iced mocha experience. Julie A

    I'm angry as hell the virus prohibits me from going in for sit down, WiFi, fellowship and the like. What was that? .... they are a drive through only? Never mind. Sorry friends but it's pretty uneventful. It's like a DB for serious coffee drinkers or the Starbucks drive-though. Some great selections and flavours. Maybe 9-10 house specialty drinks, 9-10 classics and 4-5 espressos. The beauty part is they are bi-lingual. You can speak in another coffee house language, they translate it to Human Bean for you. That's exactly what my hopelessly-stuck-in-the-twentieth-century keister needs. They did a swell job of quickly getting me through and were oh so polite. They are worth checking out, if you haven't already. Who knows...it could be your new go to? 4/20

    Tables outside, no walk in.

    Went here with my three kids after visiting Sierra Sewing Center just across the way and had a blast. We ordered our dirt cheap kid sized fruit smoothies(made with fruit puree) that came in fun kids cups. Kids had green apple and I had blueberry pomegranate. They were both delicious and refreshing. I used to buy my smoothies at Starbucks but they discontinued them. I'm glad they did because these smoothies are much more fun and much more cheap. The walk up window made ordering fun and the employees are always nice. This visit, the two workers- Rachel and Kenzie- were so nice and played along with my two little rascals and their shenanigans. They really brightened up our day. On a separate visit I've tried their mochas and specialty drinks and they are worth checking out. Do yourself a favor and check this place out. You'll save money, get your fix and will leave with a smile. Don't forget to ask for a stamp card and fyi, each drink comes with a chocolate covered coffee bean. How awesome is that. They serve breakfast sandwiches and other treats as well and adjacent to their tables you will find a grassy shaded area next to their drive through that can be fun to hang around.

    Super glad I decided to give this place another try. Everyone deserves a second chance! My husband, son & I came here on my husband's birthday to get drinks & celebrate! This second time around was a night & day difference. Lauren was the best! She made my husband & I the most tasty frappes we've EVER had. No joke! Lauren was so friendly & genuinely kind. Lauren was also very patient, she let me finish my entire order before making my drinks. We asked for 6 pumps of espresso in each of our frappes, to get super caffeinated! The little espresso beans were like the cherries on top! Thank you Human Bean team for reaching out to me to apologize & for making things right. Can now say with confidence that you have earned a customer for life!

    My favorite part of getting a coffee here, is receiving the chocolate covered espresso bean placed on the lid of your coffee. What a nice start to your caffeinated liquid treat! The coffee is pretty good too. I tried the eggnog Chai latte (seasonal) and the dirty chai latte and enjoyed both, especially the eggnog chai. Unfortunately, it's only a seasonal drink. The concept of this coffee shop is grab and go. There is a walk up window if you prefer, but most people go through the drive thru. The free standing building is quite small, like the size of a small trailer. Inside is strictly for employee use, so if you aren't driving thru you are sitting in your car in the lot or outside near the walk up window. On a warm day, that may not be a bad idea, but right now it's too cold. The young folk at the counter are pretty pleasant, one nice young gentleman even telling me about his recent engagement while I waited for my coffee. Which turns out pretty quick. The menu has a variety of other drinks as well, such as slushies and energy drinks, so even if you don't drink coffee, you could find a nice caffeinated beverage to try.

Everything is lavender and purple, which happens to be my favorite color, so it already feels like home. I always order the same thing: an Americano with oat milk. It's smooth, rich, and never bitter, and the oat milk makes it perfectly creamy without feeling heavy. They make it right every single time. And I have to give a special shoutout to Sara. She is so sweet and always remembers my order, which makes it feel even more personal and welcoming. That kind of consistency and kindness really stands out. The vibe here is everything. The music is great, the energy is warm, and it's such a peaceful place to sit, think, journal, or meet up with someone. It's clean, beautifully designed, and you can tell they truly care about the experience.

First of all their logo is super cute and I love all the purple..my favorite color..lol.. the first thing you see when you walk in is the purple food truck painted on the wall around the window you order at and then the big wall on the right of the door where people have signed it when visiting. We walked up to the window and were greeted nicely by 2 staff members.. they explained their seasonal drink and answered any questions we had..they were both so nice. I got a warm chai with regular milk. Temp was good but it did lack flavor. I could barely taste anything like the Chai or cinnamon. My fiancee got their seasonal drink. It was a spin on Dubai chocolate but made with white chocolate. My fiancee LOVED it! I tried it too and it was pretty good. Im just happy she liked it. Cute place with good vibes and friendly staff. We will be coming back and I will be trying the chai again.

Barely tasted the matcha. For pastries we got the chocolate croissant, pain suisse and a Kouign Amann. The Kouign amann was different, it was in a shape of a bar and had multiple flaky layers. Tasted like a palmier cookie. Everything was delicious. The lines can be long and we were told if you just want drinks, walk next door to Perenn Grocery and they can make the drinks quickly to avoid the lines. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating.

Surprisingly located within a convenience stop (gas station, market, car wash), it was a spacious, well-lit location filled with visual references to nature and Tahoe. Parking was easy and there was plenty of comfortable indoor and outdoor seating, giving a slightly upscale cafeteria vibe. My only note is that the tables could have been tidied more frequently. Only saw someone go around to do this when we were done eating. The food seemed to be an interesting blend of Mexican-inspired, mostly healthy breakfast and lunch options. Lots of tea, coffee, and fresh squeezed juice options to pair with. I opted for the "green juice" minus celery. Pretty much everything (including my egg melt) came with top-notch, unique tortilla chips (crispy, whole grain?). I can only imagine that their house specialty nachos would be amazing. The egg melt came open face on a bagel...perfect thickness, moist but not chewy, topped with very fluffy eggs, ripe avocado and a rich melted jack cheese, with perfect (slightly nacho-esque) seasoning. (Much better than what some bagel-focused chains offer.) I will definitely come back for this!
