    Different ice cream flavors
    Alexis A.

    Great staff, very nice and friendly, there also a cafe and offer food which is nice. The place is not too big but it wasn't really busy neither when I had went. They offer lots of different flavor types of ice cream and shakes, they also have vegan, kosher and non dairy products which is cool. I had me a nice pistachio milkshake and it was so good. It was tasty and smooth and had a nice crunch from the peanuts in it. Only thing is that it cost me $6.00 and it wasn't even a big cup! So that was my only down fall. But there really nice and clean in there and the other flavors look really good too.

    I had a toasted bagel with egg and cheese. I was happy with the quality of my order, the speed of preparation, the price, and the gentlemen that served me. Great place for a low key and quick brunch.

    Tiramisu, pistacio, and caramel mocha banana split

    We hired Beans & Leaves to provide a coffee bar for our daughter's engagement brunch, and they were…read moreabsolutely 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.

    So good! This is what I'd expect of a Staten Island local favorite. First off, the ambiance is…read morelow-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!
