Standards are still good, food is very good, specialty lattes are a tad sweet but not bad overall. They are well known, but even with the wait they are really good. So long as you're willing to brave the crowds and the lines then it's a great option. Price is a bit high, but so is the quality.

Quick service, good quality food and coffee…read more Was trying to go to a new place that just opened up. They were not open, so came here for my breakfast. Inside is nice and spacious. Staff was nice but were in the midst of conversation when I approached the register. They quickly took my order then went directly back into conversation. Felt like fast food service, more a number than a guest. Food came out quick. Had to stage my pics a bit but easy enough. The double chocolate latte was chocolaty and creamy. Coffee was strong enough to punch through the sweet and was well balanced as a drink. The sandwich was plentiful on the pulled pork and the egg was cooked well. Bun was soft and buttery but not pillowy. Which is good because you want a breakfast sandwich to be structural enough to hold its shape after each bite. Price was about 20 for the sandwich and latte, which isn't too bad for the quality you get. Much better than your fast food chains, even if you get the same service. A great quick stop location, worth a try but not a trek.

I'll be straight up off the bat...I used to be a regular here many years ago (when I lived…read morelocally). Therefore, it was sort of a homecoming for me. As usual, the experience was great. As a small business owner myself, I love seeing businesses like this grow and thrive. I remember when it was just the owner and one staff...there were now three working their butts off! The service and food reflected this. It's awesome to see how The Bean has grown - especially since Covid caused many similar places to go under. Check it out! Trust me.

Bonus #2 doggos are welcome too.

The place has a gorgeous interior and really fun menu but I'm rocking 1 star bc it could REALLY benefit from some simple sound treatment. t's extremely loud / especially the kids, chairs against the floor and the clanking and clearing dishes. The staff was kinda young and Gen Z emotionless/blank and bored - irritated to be at work but mostly it was super loud - chairs scraping the floors, voices carrying, etc It's a must do out of the airport or if you live close by. I just hope they get the noise under control.

I have to mention I like receipts of what I purchased and for some time they haven't had a printer available to do that since it broke sometime ago. Today everyone would like receipts to get back to use for fetch.

The service was super quick and friendly, almost too quick because all the choices were overwhelming and we thought we had a bit more time to check the menu. We went with the iced German chocolate with cold foam, iced sweet and salty, and iced pumpkin pie coffees. All of the flavors were amazing! If I had to rank them: GC, PP, then SS... which says a lot as a caramel lover. Cool spot, I'd definitely come back. I wish they put one in Hartford near 84 instead of that Starbucks.

Problem Solved Brewing Company is a craft brewery that opened in East Windsor, Connecticut in…read moreSeptember 2018. It was founded by friends Alan Bukowinski and Heath Gelinas. By day, Bumowinski is a math teacher at RHAM High School in Hebron while Gelinas is an engineer at UTC Aerospace Systems. The two home-brewed for several years before starting their own brewery. They set up shop in a space that was previously home to Broad Brook Brewing Company before they moved to a larger space in Suffield. The brewery has a mathematical theme, which is a nod to the owners' day jobs. Bukowinski and Gelinas try to keep their beers rotating consistently. They usually feature at least two hoppy offerings, a "middle of the road, easy drinker" type of brew, and at least one dark beer. My wife and I first visited Problem Solved Brewing in October 2019. I had previously visited the space when it was still home to Broad Brook Brewing, and it was nice to see that it was home to a brewery again. My wife and I both loved the mathematical theme; there were framed beer-related patent drawings and protractors mounted on the walls of the taproom. We decided to order a sampler flight to share. The five beers we picked were: "Parabolic Split" (Milkshake IPA), "Conductivity-Centennial" (New England IPA), "Second Root" (Cream Ale), "Coarse Threads-White Chocolate Raspberry" (Imperial Stout), and "Coarse Threads-Pumpkin Coconut" (Imperial Stout). We really enjoyed all of the beers! The Milkshake IPA had notes of banana, chocolate and coffee, which is not what we were expecting. The Cream Ale was made with Sumatran coffee beans, which gave it nice hints of coffee and chocolate. Problem Solved also had an adjoining game room filled with games like Giant Connect 4, Darts, Ring Toss and Pass the Pigs. My wife and I enjoyed our flight with our favorite brewery game: Giant Jenga! We had a great time at Problem Solved and would definitely stop again if we're in the area.
