★★★★★ 5.0 Tina Ingemi · Aug 2025

My husband and I each got a drink (maple latte and a pumpkin spiced chai frappe) and food (breakfast ham croissant, a sausage breakfast burrito, and pumpkin cheesecake). Absolutely loved the owner and staff, a lot of laughs, great atmosphere, and great food/drink (the coconut whipped cream is sooo good, and my husband would come back just for the cheese cake)! Highly recommend and will be back when we are in the area!

Popped in yesterday to grab breakfast and had a lovely conversation w the proprietress. The chai was excellent and the breakfast burrito very filling and delicious. There was also a case full of some very intriguing craft sodas, and a whole shelf full of games as well as jewelry for sale by local crafter. A very nice place!

This establishment says it is open, says the hours were updated 7 days ago, and is linked to doordash for ordering. I ordered through doordash to send to a family member as a gift to say love you, Happy birthday, and then doordash canceled the order. I call door dash and they say that they will not complete the order because the establishment is closed. I called many times to the maine bean today to get this resolved and no one answered. My question is, why would you update your hours 7 days ago to inaccurate times of operation if you are in fact closed on Sunday. How many frustrated people are going to drive over just to be disappointed by this careless mistake in your Google update? Very frustrating.

EDIT: owner gave me a gift card, and shortly after this review they did get new lids. i absolutely love it and have great respect for business owners who listen to their customers to improve their business! much love and i will be going here even more often now! wonderful food and drink and friendly staff. go here if you want to get coffee on everything you own regularly, first time i went the lid snapped in the car, gave it a second chance and the lid cracked and fell out of my hands in a parking lot. today i went and the lid snapped as soon as i was home ruining many important papers. good food and good coffee but not willing to go back until they get better quality lids so i actually get to enjoy the coffee i spent 7 dollars on. only got pics the third time it happened but the lids are
