Bean & Barnacle

The place is very nice, spacious, and the service was good, but they don't have a good barista; they just make coffee without knowing how to do it. Don't sell me a flat white when you're giving me a boiling latte. I wouldn't drink coffee here again, I thought since they used Panther coffee beans they would have good baristas.

Giving this place 2 stars is generous. The service was poor at best, and the attitudes of the staff were very high. You can tell they didn’t want to be there or even wait on you. The only redemption was my latte was excellent. The issue was when I asked for a breakfast sandwich and they said you have to go next door to order it. When I sent to the Octopus restaurant they were more than willing to help me, and were irritated that Bean and Barnacle didn’t want to place my order. My recommendation, stay clear and keep walking/driving to the next place to get a cup of Joe and a sandwich.

Nice lil spot. They serve Panther coffee, which is apparently a pretty popular coffee. The double chocolate Frappe is delicious. The juice was good also, but its just soda and a mixer. It's not a "from scratch" type of juice. The vibe in there was really cool, and close to the beach. The downside was there was only 1 guy working, so it took a little while to order. He was working hard, but can only go so fast. So it just depends on how many people are there.

Great quick breakfast (solid coffee and tasty sandwich) spot. The gent running it alone this Saturday was excellent!

Staff did not acknowledge us when we arrived, and when they finally did, the interaction felt rude from the start. The first thing we were greeted with was a list of everything that wasn’t available, which set a negative tone immediately. Later, they yelled “hello, hello” across the coffee shop to tell me my order was ready while I was briefly on my phone. When I picked it up, it was incorrect. The entire experience made me feel like I was an inconvenience rather than a customer. I was genuinely looking forward to trying this place, but unfortunately, after this experience, I won’t be returning.
