What People's Say About Place

I cannot believe I haven’t written a review for Bean Bar yet. I’ve been coming here for close to 5 years now and is literally one of my favorite coffee shops. The environment is so welcoming, you are immediately greeted with “hey welcome in” upon walking inside. Coffee/tea and food items are delicious (pls bring back pizza bites ), especially the coffee syrups because they are all made in house. I look forward to some seasonal items all year. I always recommend Bean Bar to anyone I meet. My family from out of town have tried it several times and really love it! Apart from serving excellent food and coffee, Bean Bar has become such an important part of our lives. We’ve shared some life altering news to friends, celebrated milestones, birthdays, new beginnings and everything else life has to offer within the four walls of this coffee shop. Our kids have literally grown up going there and now recognize the staff members. This establishment is so much more than a coffee shop and I am so proud to be one of its regulars.

Had to kill some time in Florence today while waiting on some dental work and was desperately googling cool places to hang out around here. Very lucky to have stumbled across Bean Bar. A very cozy, delicious, little, coffeeshop conveniently located off the main stretch in Florence. Even walking in with no teeth in my mouth looking wild as all get out, the ladies that served me at the counter (and recommended my drink) were absolute angels. I wish for the life of me I could remember exactly what this is but I do know it was the caramel (a more buttery style caramel but sooo good) and vanilla flavors. The foam on top was delicious and lasted through the entire drink. They're currently decked out for Halloween but I could tell that this would be a great spot for a drink and some food at any time of the year. Free WiFi and extremely clean bathrooms were also available. They also have cute merch and a variety of coffee/tea inspired machines and trinkets to go along.

Amazing coffee shop! Bean bar has a wonderful menu full of coffees and matcha, sandwiches, and more! I get something different every time i go. Today i got their Candy Cane Mocha and when i say it’s to die for it is soooo good! Big tasty bagels and such good little cookies and treats! I love a small local business that supports local artists and is LGBTQ friendly!!!

Wonderful spot!!! Clean, welcoming, and everything we tried was delicious! Lavender honey latte was outstanding, and both the pound cake and breakfast sandwiches were super. Even shared a tiny bite with my travel companion who gave it a 100% paw of approval. Keep up the great work!

It was a Busy morning around 10:30 on a Saturday, but they were very efficient and kind. I didn’t know what I wanted, so I asked for recommendation, and was given a very lovely caramel latte. Not typical caramel but a really nice buttery flavor. Will definitely be coming back!

WOW, just amazing. I ordered a caramel latte and it is made with homemade caramel sauce. Flavor just tastes natural and not that nasty syrup. Spinach and artichoke pinwheels were a nice touch for breakfast

I haven’t been here since graduating from FMU, but hands down one of the things I miss about Florence. This coffee shop was my go to place to edit photos and study. It’s quiet, warm, welcoming atmosphere is what kept me coming. The coffee they serve is like no other coffee shop I’ve been to. It really is a whole different experience. In Charlotte we have sooo many coffee shops yet none quite like bean bar. I always loved their vanilla bean coffee and the different pastries they had especially the pop-tarts. Whenever family visited or friends I always would bring them here to experience their amazing organic coffee

I had a meet up with a friend recently and she picked this spot for us to go to. I had never been, and it was a particularly yucky day, so I wasn't too keen on venturing out of doors. It was well worth the trip, and I had a lovely time. The food was excellent and the ambiance was so cute and warm. It's a bit out of the way for me, but when I'm in town, I definitely know which coffee shop to hit!
