We love the iced blended coffees. Our absolute favorites are the iced blended cookie butter and the iced blended cookies and cream! I add an extra shot of espresso because Im a caffeine addict. But the flavors here are really the best and most unique around. No overused Torani syrup here! They have their very own powder mixes which are really delicious. I order mine with oat milk to cut down on dairy. The mix has a little bit of dairy, but not enough to really worry about, as Im lactose intolerant. But those cookie butter iced blended coffees are absolutely addicting! We try getting away from the same ol same ol flavors because most places use the same old syrups. We highly recommend the cookie butter, I cannot stress that enough! Theyre kind of like a vanilla ginger cookie? But just trust me, itll most likely be your favorite too!
Such nice baristas here. Love the iced coffee and the ice blended drinks. They were the first to have them! I only wish Coffee Bean would was closer to my NorCal home
Good coffee, great baristas. Terrible breakfast sandwich - the ultimate breakfast sandwich comes out nothing like the picture - it was worse than United airlines food.
Miss this one cute little baka that used to make my chai latte and absolutely scrumptious bagel! Still a great place tho :)
I don’t understand why there are so few stores . I mean honestly all I get is fraps from Starbucks for years and as soon as I tried one from coffee bean it definitely tasted better and blended better then Starbucks these guys should b makin billions b sales
Wonderful selection, aesthetically pleasing. 😊 Had the ‘Cherry Blossom’ green tea #sotasty. Every time I walk in I am immediately greeted by the most pleasant people you could ever meet. Such warmth, makes me feel at home. Which is especially great being so far from home at the moment. All the way from Augusta, Georgia. I am so grateful to have found a nice spot to enjoy a nice tea, good book, and great atmosphere.
I drive back and forth between LA and the Bay many times a year and this is always a stopping point for me.DELICIOUS drinks, friendly knowledgeable staff, and clean restrooms make it the perfect place to rest before getting back on the road.Favorite drinks:Chai latte with OatmilkCaramel ice blended with drizzlesFavorite food:Chocolate croissant warmed up
My favorite place for tea and coffee. I love their tea lattes. I live 2 hours away and when I visit, its always my first stop.
Fabulous iced tea and coffee, my only complaint is there isnt one near me!
This place is so nice inside and clean. Also the people here are very nice. Totally recommend the Oreo coffee drink. Its soooooo yummy. You wont regret it. 💖
Great customer service. My husband accidentally ordered my espresso beverage in a way I honestly dont like . I was just going to drink it but he said he would just order another and save that one for him for later. When he went to order the girl said no it was fine and just made one even though to was our mistake. So sweet this is why is my favorite coffee Bean and tea leaf. Coffees amazing and the customer service even better
Good coffee, good service. No drive through & lots of sweet drinks
Their large lattes are the best. It was so good, I went twice a day for three days straight till we left the area. Now back in the bay area, I am missing the lattes.
Coffee was great but cashier was so rude... Pushy about what we should get..she did not suggest ...she told us how to order
They were so nice and in our brief transaction I felt so welcome. They offered to make a drink for me without milk and substituted a different flavor. Thank you for brightening my day! ☕
First and last time here. Service was friendly but my Vanilla Bean Cold Brew tasted like sour milk and the muffin we ordered was stale. Very disappointing.
I had a fantastic chai latte with a scrumptious bagel and was served by the cutest little baka I’ve ever seen! The service was superb and I will definitely be coming back for another latte and afternoon delight:)
Always stop here when I’m in town visiting. Never a bad coffee
Bought the match iced tea lightened, very good ;) quick service, knowledgeable and friendly.
What can I say!!!! We need more of these shops around. Not the largest coffee chain but so much better than Starbucks.Time to boycott Starbucks!!!!
Mocha Ice Blended...the best!!
Delicious coffee and great service
Everyone there is really nice and welcoming and they have amazing drinks and pastries.
Awesome service and tasty iced tea.
Best frappuccinos I have ever had!!! Got the white chocolate mocha frappe.
Friendly, competent personnel. I order hot green tea at coffee shops wherever I travel. I always ask how long to leave the tea bags in and the Starbucks employees either say 5 minutes or you can just leave them in. When green tea is brewed for longer than 3 minutes it starts to taste bitter. It is known. Here at Coffee Bean, the employee confidently replied 3 minutes for the Chinese green tea I had ordered, and said her manager was always quizzing her about information like that. I commend that manager and a corporate culture that encourages competence. Unfortunately I live east of the Mississippi and cant find any Coffee Beans near me.
Nice location & employees
Good coffee and friendly baristas
Made my blended coffee really well 👌👌
My favorite ice blended drink by far. The staff are friendly and know me by name
Fast service and very clean
Great coffee especially when compared to the green mermaid place.
Very quick with getting us our drinks!
The coffee was delicious! The BEST ever. And the cookie too. Really cute place when you walk in. But the reason for my rating is the bathroom. There are two unisex bathrooms. The first one I walked in didnt have toilet paper or paper towels and the floor was filthy. The next bathroom had no toilet paper. The floor was filthy, but dont worry! Theyre was a huge roll of paper towels on the floor next to the toilet. I did tell the cashier people and they said they would take care of it. But no one had gone to clean the bathroom before I left so I dont know when it got done. And I was there for awhile.
This was a really cool coffee shop with superb quality coffee (rich without even a hint of over-roasting), good prices, and a wonderful atmosphere. There is also a great selection of Bakery items to choose from. Parking is plentiful and right outside their doors, a nice plus. The baristas were friendly & cheerful, yet very genuine...we felt very welcome while sitting, chatting, and drinking or coffee.
Best servers in slo county by far. They remember my order and what i like even if i havent been in there for a while and coming from SB county. Great drinks best service
Great coffee
Great coffee and tea here
Nice 👍
Is the best all people they have best service. I love The coffee Bean & Tea Leaf.
A favorite in Pismo Beach area.
Awsome coffee and leaf teas for everyone in the family.
Very good coffee. I recommend the dark chocolate ice blended. Great wifi. Good sofa seats available. Right off the freeway!
Wanted to try something other than the usual Starbucks and was totally impressed by all the different non-dairy options they provided ! Great customer service from the workers especially it being so early in the morning . Will definitely be returning when Im in town
Dark chocolate blended coffee drink? Yeeeesss pleeeeaaasssse! 😋
Great coffee shop located in Pismo next to McDonalds. Quick service with a friendly staff. I often use this place for work meetings. They have a meeting room free to use for those who request it in advance.
The facility is clean and inviting. I ordered a black iced tea. It tastes strongly of coffe . I dont know if they make it on the same machine or use the same containers but it wasnt what I expected.
Good drinks
Great place to stop at in Pismo Beach, friendly staff and quick service for morning travel and right off the 101. Delicious goodies and smiles all around!
We always love coming here if we are in the area. So much better than another well known place. The staff is always friendly and have gotten our order correct every time. The coffee never tastes burnt. If you are in the mood for good coffee this is the place to come.
The crew here is always really friendly, the store is clean and the service is usually pretty fast (a sudden rush can slow things down, but they do seem to try to minimize that). The only complaint I have is that there are times their displays can make getting around in the store a bit difficult. At the moment theres a display that makes getting to the counter/register a problem. Other than that, love this place!
Best coffee, and super friendly service!
Great service. Good coffee and thay were open christmas dressed casual. Nice place
Great service friendly staff
Great for a chain! This location has very friendly staff and they pull a good espresso shot. The shop is clean and parking is always available. Thanks!
Stop by for a cup of yummy coffee didnt know I had to wait 9 minutes for a coffee. People who ordered their coffee way after me received their drinks before I did. Sorry not worth the wait. Not going again.
This place is great to go to in the morning before a beautiful day of riding! Staff is always friendly and the drinks are always made to perfection
Always enjoyed coffee bean! I wish they had more in the area. We have one in Pismo Beach and its the only one withing a 60 mile radius. All else is Starbucks. Would much rather have this over Starbucks, my opinion.
Great alternative to Starbucks. They even have a meeting room that you can use.
It’s really sad to write this review because I am one of those people who rarely goes out and spend money on these drinks but since I took a trip to Santa Maria from Los Angeles. I gave this place a try for the first time and it was just a horrible experience.I ordered a Chai Latte with milk substitute, in the meanwhile I had to use the restroom. As soon as I got out, I clearly saw the server making a drink with regular milk. I was just paying attention but it never occurred to me that it would be my drink because I asked for Soy milk.It’s not the first time it has happened to me somewhere ( it happened at Starbucks years ago) except this time I confronted the person and they still lied to my face when I clearly saw her make my order and hand it right to me.😐
Peppermint latte was tasty. I was not excited by the light roast coffee: It had an overly sharp flavor.
Delicious coffee and tea! Bakery items available. Quick service. Friendly staff. Definitely recommend
The drink shown on the menu had caramel, which I imagine is what made the drink. The drinks we ordered did not have caramel and, when asked, we were literally told by the barista that it takes too long to swirl the caramel inside the cup bc there were a lot of other drinks to make. Disappointed in the customer service.
Amazing awsome best thing ever good times good life u need to try this.
The drinks are always amazing, but the staff could use some customer experience training.
I think it is simply some of the best coffee Ive ever had. This is the only one Ive been to. Have been coming here for years on vacation and always look forward to their coffee. The employees are always friendly. Based on this shop Id pick the Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf over any coffee shop if I knew it was available.
I love the different areas set up to stay there and hang out while you are drinking your beverage. The pastries are delicious.
Is it a rule that every Coffee Bean should take a really, really long time to make their drinks? I ordered an Iced Mocha which consists of pouring things into a glass of ice and it still was about an 8-minute wait. But why?At least it was clean!
Good place
Good coffee
We actually revisited because the day before it was really good, but not so good this time.
Go way to much. Good seating and love the staff. Well rounded group.Props out to:WayneYvonneHollyStephanieJavierMorganClaireAnd the rest that Im not sure on the names.Basically love this place. Keep it up yall
This place is always amazing! I stop by every time Im in Pismo. Friendly staff, Top Notch espresso, excellent local hangout!
Amazing drinks here. I tried them for the first time while I was at pismo. Iced mocha was amazing
So relaxing to sit with family and enjoy a great cup of coffee so nice !!
I love the coffee here. Coffee is not over roasted like the place with the green logo. Service is always good.
Wonderful coffee, atmosphere, friendly staff. Barista was delivering drinks to us, including my large mocha. They are currently fund raising for Bright Futures, a great after school program.
Rapid service, great product. I enjoy this location. Its nicely low key.
Every time Im in the area I go to this store. The employees have always been friendly and helpful and the quality of the drinks is always great. The store is always clean and has a good atmosphere.
The best coffee bar none. The finest expresso Ive ever experienced.
Went Sunday after day lights saving. Arrived when they were scheduled to open see two other people in their cars. After 20 minutes the white vibe person gets out, opens the cbtl door, locks it behind them. Proceeds to not open the store. Waited ten more minutes and left. Terrible. Employee was just sitting in their car on the phone. Very frustrating.
This is one of my most favorite places in the world. I always come here when I visit my sister. The black forest is to die for. The service is great too. They should get some of these in Denver!💙
Always a great staff! Been stopping here to use the bathroom and get coffee on my road trips for over 10 years. You all are awesome!
If Im being honest, the employees are one of the main reasons I dont go to the Starbucks thats right by my house; theyre so friendly, fast, efficient and they make a point to make sure youre noticed and appreciated. Whether it be remembering your every day order, to making small talk while brewing the cofffee. Ive got my 3 favorites, the ladies that tend to take my orders in the morning are the best! 😊
Love the Hazelnut blend! Great staff and great atmosphere!
Tasty and different flavors of tea and coffee to try! Ambience is good and staff are courteous. Recommended!
Love this place, we stop and grab some tea and grab some drinks whenever we are in the area. Always friendly service and it always goes fast despite the lines
Consistent and delicious coffee for when you are tired of Starbucks or if you want a real decent coffee shop
Coffee is great. Service is good. Nice spot to meet and gather with friends.
Love this coffe! Beats Starbucks on quality and price. Wish we had one in Santa Maria!!!
Excellent coffee, plus the Medicine ball when youre sick. Originated in SoCal. Ive enjoyed every location Ive visited.
Quick service. Great beverages. Comfortable seating.
