Great establishment, and by far the best in the area. The wife and I didn’t know what to expect when walking in. Greeted with warm good mornings from staff, very helpful explaining the specials, and any questions we had as *first timers*. Extensive drink and food options with quality outcomes on both. We ordered the California Club, and the Reuben for sandwiches. And the drink special was a Coconut creme pie latte. Everything was fabulous . Plated well, served fresh/hot. The noise was a bit much for anyone wanting to work remote, or host a meeting on the main floor. Mr Beans offers indoor seating, isolated seating, a meeting room, and a very cute outdoor patio for seating ( with umbrellas )They were very busy at 9am on a Thursday. Local artists can display and sell their craft here. They also offer a bring your own cup/mug and for 2$ they offer a free refill coffee bar with 4 flavors plus a special of the day/week which is Chocolate Raspberry ( today’s 4 flavors were Fair Trade, Sumatra med/dark single origin, Columbia, and Hazelnut Creme ) All their beans are roasted in Iowa ( Des Moines area **Friedrichs is a Des Moines based artisan roaster thay ships nationwide** ) They do offer a conference room for larger gatherings, events or meetings at 25$/hrs or 100$ for the day. Highly recommend taking time out of your day to enjoy Mr Beans . We will be back for sure. The parking lot is large, accommodating and always full you’d think it was a full fledged restaurant. *ALSO* the restrooms are VERY CLEAN and well decorated and fun. This business cares about its employees, patrons, and it’s image to the public. Who doesn’t love Mr Bean!?!? 10 out of 10 experience.

Always tasty! I love supporting local. I’ve always been very happy with my food (generous serving sizes) and beverages. They are very good at communicating with customers (door signs and social media) when they have a closure or staffing issues. I’ve spent a lot of time in their lovely and comfortable space.

We don’t live in the Cedar Rapids area. However, nearly every time we are there we make our way to Mr. Beans.
The staff is very helpful and friendly.
Of course the items we’ve ordered we find very tasty.

A cozy cafe tucked away just off highway 100. I decided in the ultimate iced coffee, which was described as being like a Vietnamese coffee. I really enjoyed it. The prices were reasonable and the barista was friendly. The atmosphere was calm and relaxing. This seems like a nice place to meet up with friends or get some work done.

Great coffee and very reasonable prices. Had a quad espresso and a sausage egg and cheese breakfast sandwich on an English muffin for under 7 dollars. Can’t beat that. Plus their lunch sandwiches are great too, yet in a town with limited breakfast sandwich options that aren’t fast food, this is a winner.

Wife has been here many times but today was my first. I can tell why she loves it so much. Had a breakfast panini with house made bread and a mango smoothie while lounging on a comfy chair in a sunroom. It was like I was in a nice cottage on vacation from my busy day. Miss it already.

Glad to find a place on the east side of town that makes a good latte. Food was stellar as well.

Had been excited to try this place for a few weeks now and I was disappointed. Got myself a treat and a drink while I was doing some studying. The staff did not seem to be the most competent and the one server was rude in her demeanor when telling me to leave the facility. I was not being a smart ass and asked “I thought y’all closed at 4?” And again she was rude and had an attitude with her response. I understand closing early sometimes but her demeanor during interaction was terrible. The facility it self was nice inside though!

My family absolutely adores this place. We live a convenient walking distance, so we’re regulars. Staff remember us and our usual orders. Drinks are always great and they have an excellent pastry selection. The dining area is clean and has a comfortable atmosphere.
