Love their coffee flavors and options! Lots of menu options too like waffles. Next time I'd love to try them. Today we got an iced latte and a reeses puff coffee, made as decaf. Asked for less sweet on the reeses which they were able to accommodate. Very reasonable prices and the come in many sizes. read more

The iced oat latte I got was pretty darn good. I loved the deep roasted flavor from the coffee and the nuttiness from the oat milk. I also appreciate the clean bathroom and tables that were perfectly spaced out. I wish I took a picture of their drinks menu board. I found myself staring at it for awhile. The neat and clean handwriting was very satisfying to look at. read more

So good! This is what I'd expect of a Staten Island local favorite. First off, the ambiance is low-key. Upon entering, I saw customers of all ages. One table had a group of senior women catching up; another of two kids enjoying their waffles; and a third of a customer enjoying her solitude with a book in hand. Interestingly, even with the low music, the acoustics made it difficult to hear the person I was with. There was so much chatter in the space! Still, I enjoyed my time. This was my first visit, so I asked the cashier what he'd recommend for toasts. What was suggested were the avocado toast or the ricotta with fig jam and arugula toast. I went for the latter! I paired it with a hibiscus/cranberry tea called Angel Fall Mist, apparently a fav among customers. All in all, the meal was delish!!! The fig jam was not too sweet and was complemented well by the ricotta cheese. $9 for the toast plus tax came out to $10.89. The tea total was $3.27. Pretty affordable, I'd say! If you're in the neighborhood, I highly recommend it! read more

This was my third visit to Bean & Leaves, and they continue to absolutely amaze me every single time! The pastries are consistently a highlight - always incredibly fresh, perfectly made, and so delicious. Beyond the amazing food, the employees are wonderfully friendly and do an excellent job keeping the entire place spotlessly clean. I adore the atmosphere here; it's so cozy and cute, making it the perfect spot whether I want to surf the web, catch up with a friend, dive into a book, or just enjoy a coffee. Speaking of enjoying things, their menu is fantastic! I recently had the waffles with strawberries, chocolate syrup, and tons of whipped cream - the portion was huge and every bite was absolutely mouthwatering. Bean & Leaves is a true gem! Please stop by if you're in the area, you can thank me later. *wink, wink* Oh, and Free Wifi is always a plus! read more

We hired Beans & Leaves to provide a coffee bar for our daughter's engagement brunch, and they were absolutely fantastic. The morning of our event there was snow on the ground, and Danielle, one of the owners, personally called early to confirm everything was still on. She shoveled herself out and drove in from New Jersey to make sure the coffee bar was set up and ready. That level of dedication and professionalism truly stood out. The coffee bar itself was a huge hit. They offered espresso drinks, cappuccinos, flavored lattes, oat milk options, and iced selections -- all made fresh to order. The quality was excellent and truly café-level, not just standard event coffee. The iced lattes were especially popular with our guests. The setup was polished and professional, the baristas were friendly and efficient, and it added such a fun, elevated touch to the brunch. If you're planning a wedding event, shower, or special celebration, I highly recommend Beans & Leaves. Exceptional service, delicious coffee, and a team that genuinely cares about your event. read more

Wow I love this spot! With ample seating, it's a great place to sit down with your coffee and food and get some work done. I tried to the monthly Berry in Love special, which was so pretty to look at and also delicious. The barista was really helpful in trying to figure out what I'd like but also pushing me to try something new. I also tried the fig and ricotta toast, which was a huge serving and absolutely delicious. Can't wait to go back to try the rest of their menu! read more

My wife had been dying to try this spot, so we decided to stop by while visiting Staten Island--and it did not disappoint. The coffee was excellent, and the service was just as impressive. The price point felt well worth it, especially since the barista took the time to answer all of my wife's questions about different flavor options and recommendations. The pastries were phenomenal--fresh, flavorful, and the perfect complement to our drinks. We originally discovered this place on TikTok, and I'm happy to say it absolutely lives up to the hype. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in the area! read more

Unfortunately, this visit was very disappointing. Most of the staff seemed unhappy, and very few greeted us with a smile. Our food came out at completely different times; by the time I was finishing my meal, my friends were still waiting for theirs, which made it hard to enjoy the experience together. I understand it's winter, but the restaurant was uncomfortably cold. Many people, including us, kept our coats on while eating because it felt like the heat wasn't working. While the drinks were great, the food itself was just okay and didn't make up for the overall experience. I've been to the Arthur Kill Road location and really enjoyed it, so I was excited to try this Forest Ave spot. Sadly, it didn't live up to expectations. I wouldn't return to this location and wouldn't recommend it. read more

The food is always delicious! I was craving for waffles and coffee. Especially on this rainy day! The food came out still hot and delicious! So was the coffee!! Thank you! read more

This place is one of the best locations on Staten Island and it has the worst food. I'll come here out of convenience and they will mess up toast. Whichever side is burnt beyond recognition is the side they will put the ricotta on. Want a BEC on a croissant? It will be over cooked and taste like there is burnt connective tissue holding it together. It's nice to sit outside though for 45 mins while someone messes up your order so I'll keep coming back. read more

Beans and Leaves - Burnt ricotta toast - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Staten Island, New York

I stopped in for the first time with my husband this weekend after we had heard so many positive reviews from friends and family. Most mornings when I drive by they always look packed so we figured we would dine in to try their coffee and breakfast options. We were both surprised to see how many options were available; while the menu is waffle and croissant French toast heavy, they do have alternative options like bagel sandwiches and grab and go items which is a nice addition. We ordered the original waffle and the blueberry cheesecake French toast - the French toast was really yummy; not too sweet and perfectly portioned! My husbands waffle was okay, the texture was not dense but almost gluey as you chewed which made it not enjoyable. Overall we loved the coffee and are willing to give another shot as it could have been a slight oversight this visit. read more

Cool ambiance I love that they have a "pay it forward" coffee. Olivia was very nice to me Coffee and desserts are great

1/5/25: I used to come here all of the time. I think they are getting more busy and the layout/space is insufficient and the number of experienced employees have gone down. I came in during 1:30 and ordered a matcha latte which was mediocre. I'm unsure why they put a shot of espresso in a large matcha latte... I did not order an espresso matcha latte. The matcha to espresso ratio is off... taste like almond milk and espresso with a hint of matcha. They are not blended well. The cup was leaking and some got onto my clothing. The employee making my drink had never made the drink before and was asking for help but gabby was helping him minimally and laughing when he messed up the first time. I think they need to be more professional and get it together. Will boycott and not return for a while. read more

Beans and Leaves - Matcha latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Staten Island, New York

Food: My party tried a ham, egg, and cheese croissant sandwich, a chocolate croissant, a Cinnabon waffle, and a hazelnut coffee. The croissant sandwich was pressed and toasted to perfection. Unfortunately the ham and cheese were cold from the fridge. The cold contents make an otherwise tasty sandwich a bit off putting. The chocolate croissant was room temp. It was ok but too bready. I think it would have been better warmed up. The Cinnabon waffle was delicious! The waffle had so much cinnamon it was just below a red hot. The waffle was balanced by a light icing that wasn't too sweet. The coffee was good but they added so much cream that it was cold. Over all the food was good but could have been improved with a few small tweaks. Service: The service was decent for a coffee shop. The food came out quickly Ambiance: The tables had plenty of space between them. It wasn't crowded like coffee shops can tend to be. read more

We only ordered an extra large latte and a cheese/chive potato waffle. The staff was friendly and quick, and the food was reasonably filling as well as flavorful. The overall ambiance is nice and is what a cafe typically looks like, with ample seating and space between tables. Definitely recommend the waffle for those who are looking for a savory breakfast! Latte gets the job done but it's not special. Thanks for reading and good luck! read more

Beans and Leaves - Potato made cheese and chive waffle - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Staten Island, New York

The food here is pretty good, but wait i only had the avocado toast with Sunnyside eggs and that is really good to me. I had the coffee before and I didn't care for it, they never make my coffee right so I just don't get my coffee from here. Now the service here is freaking horrible, I don't know if it's because I'm black but the service here is never good to me. It seems like I'm always waiting extra long for my order and when I do get my food the waiter just toss my plate on the table. And today I watched the waiter on how he treated the Caucasian customers and he served them with a smile. And to make it even worse the waiter is serving in tiny shorts any shorter and his goods make hang out. The ambiance is average nothing spectacular. I'm giving them a 4 based on my avocado toast because other than that I will give them 1.5 stars. I would tell anyone black that comes to restaurant be mindful and it's a possibility you would not be treated kindly. read more

Unfortunately disappointed in the mocha made here. I wanted to give it another chance and ordered a chai latte but it tasted horrific literally and I put it in the trash right outside the coffee shop. I don't understand why people sell drinks on their menu when they don't know how to make them. It was so foamy and tasted like vomit even with a remake. I won't be coming here again unfortunately. read more

Oh what a beautiful time to have warm marshmallow fluff, peanut butter, and chocolate and graham cracker crumbs on a tasty waffle! I didn't get a picture of it, but I also devoured a cinnamon bun. This was my first time successfully getting seated after they had expanded. Every time I tried to go, it was packed and there would be a one hour wait. So excited that the space holds more people!! Can't wait to have more waffles read more

This place is so cozy!! I went on Saturday afternoon and everything was so lovely. I was greeted as soon as I came in and the barista was so friendly and helpful in helping me figure out my order. She had red curly hair and was so nice. I ordered a hot chai latte and it was definitely the best chai I've had on the island so far! It's also right next to a bus stop for the s48 so it was really easy for me to get to. I'll definitely be back!! read more

Ok. This place is not only cozy and clean. The service is impeccable and impressive. They care about their customers and the coffee is excellent. My son Was in love with his French toast and I was happy they had a gluten free waffle! An excellent place! Even the customers were happy! There were no seats available due to crowd and two nice people offered seats. It's as if you are under a happy spell just by walking through the door! read more

Beans and Leaves - tried 1 of the "staff fav" from Arthur Kill Rd location. AMAZING! Coffee is brwn sugar vanilla shaken espresso w. vanilla cold foam - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Staten Island, New York

Excellent morning stop for coffee and breakfast orders. Large take and go crowd, but a spacious seating for meetings and morning paper reading. The food offerings, while limited, are excellent. Warning: parking is tough. All metered parking on Forest Ave. No lot. Be careful to feed that meter. read more

Super sweet people - we spilled a huge cup of iced herbal tea and they came with a mop - so nice about it, and they refilled the cup and were surprised when we insisted on paying for it. The food was all fresh and delicious. We tried the "egg waffles" and some good sides. This is independent, local woman-owned and deserves the support. Have a coffee and add a meal. Oh and they open super early on a Sunday when little else is open! read more

I come here once in awhile. Parking sucks here since it's on a Main Street. The iced coffee is so good, I'm a fan of it. Chocolate croissant was soft light and fluffy--faves. It's very small inside so seating is limited. It's nice during the summer/spring weather. Service was fast and friendly. read more

Didn't end up getting food or dining in. The tables are full of dirty plates. The place appeared to be well staffed and I witnessed at least 6 people working. However, they appeared to be avoiding eye contact and minding other things other than tending to the front. There were 5 people on line including myself waiting to be serviced. I was disappointed by the bad first impression and left to get brunch elsewhere read more

We walked in on Memorial Day. Party of 4 with a toddler. There was only one high chair which was occupied at the time. You have to order the food at the register and they bring it to your table once it's done. They offer a variety of coffee brews and even had the "flavor of the day". We ordered a couple of ice lattes (vanilla and caramel) and a hot cappuccino. They all tasted watered down. The waffles were fluffy and soft. The fruits were all fresh. For overall food and taste I rate this place a 2.5, for decor and fast service a 4. I Will like to return to taste a different cup of coffee. read more

Meet my kids in Staten Island for some breakfast. The place is pretty nice. And spacious. It was pretty busy for a weekday. Everyone was nice. Place is clean. We ordered waffle eggs. Which was pretty cool. The eggs were cooked in a waffle iron. A couple of ice coffees which did not come out on time. But tasted good. Good place. I would come back read more

So I have been to Bean and Leaves a few times but not recently. I decided to visit today and unfortunately I wasn't really impressed. We came here for coffee and waffles. I ordered a reg coffee and americano both were cold, bitter, burnt and it almost tasted like they don't clean the equipment properly. It's really a shame because the shop wasn't really busy to mess up coffee that bad. We ordered a waffle frittata with zucchini, bacon and cheese. A cookie and cream waffle and a churro waffle with vanilla ice cream. The waffle frittata is very interesting take on eggs. It was light, fluffy and tasty. It came with a bowl of fruit. I thought it was good. The churro waffle is a great concept.. The waffle itself was some what dense. It had way to much cinnamon and sugar on top. The vanilla ice cream went well and you def didn't need syrup. If they refined this waffle it would be so much better. The cookie and cream waffle was so much fluffier then the churro waffle. It had pieces of cookies and a big mound of whip cream and chocolate syrup. The waffle itself was really good. Overall, I thought B&L would have been a lot better. The stand out surprisingly was the egg waffle "frittata" and fruit bowl. I recommend not getting coffee. read more

I visit often. The food is great. Olivia is the sweetest girl. She always goes above and beyond.

I loved my experience here, the service was super great! Anjolina was super friendly and added to the experience.

I loved it here!! Coffee was yum and my experience with Anjolina was amazing, she was super sweet and personable! Would definitely recommend

Really wanted to LOVE this neighborhood gem because it's small, cute; has inspiring messages and decor available for purchase, great POS system, can sit, parking on the street, all of the things, ya know....but yeah, no. The quality of the food is a miss, it must be the hype because these waffles lack flavor, period. Not sure what batter is used but I couldn't finish my one plain expensive waffle :( The girls who work here are friendly if they know you or if you look like them (feels like, just my observation) so I never felt that warmth in regards to customer service but I've seen it displayed to others in front of me so they are definitely capable :) The drinks; coffee; I've had hot coffee that was good from here, umm love the chai, iced coffee not so much. Do love when they post staff faves on the wall for inspo. I've supported plenty of times but the energy isn't in alignment with where I should continue spending so thanks for the service:) read more

Beans and Leaves - Plain Classic Waffle with Butter and Syrup - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Staten Island, New York

As a newbie to Beans & Leaves - I can honestly say this did not disappoint. I had a few items in mind as I approached the counter to order, and asked the gentleman working what he recommended. He was honest and humble and after asking to make sure if I had any allergies, he said he'd surprise me for my iced coffee. For food, the manager suggested two options for sweet and two options for savory. I figured my drink would likely be sweeter so I went for savory with the Hungry Man Waffle. Man oh man was it DELICIOUS. I had been eyeing this spot on instagram for a while and I am so happy I got the chance to try it today. I will definitely be back in the future. Thank you to the awesome staff for the recommendations as well as being genuine. read more

First let's talk about the customer service. Literally everyone that worked there were so helpful at recommendations on the menu and other places to eat. It felt like being at your families house during a holiday. Felt warm and homey inside. Food: Red Velvet Waffle with fruity pebbles. Literally the best red velvet flavor waffle ever had. The flavors were so amazing but not overpowering. Coffee/Tea OMG. So many choices. Highly recommend looking up the menu before you come because you will need a moment to decide what you want to try. Definitely highly recommend. read more
