I walked past this place the other day and made a mental note to make my next coffee shop visit…read morethis destination. This is a sweet spot. It's connected to Cleo Bagels (same owner) and has a pretty great concept. This is a little coffee shop with a small selection of sweet treats and coffee drinks. The place next door is more expansive with bagels and a wider selection of breakfast fare. One can buy food from Cleo's and bring it next door to Little Bean and enjoy either space. I wasn't eating, but ordered a macchiato first and then later a drip coffee. I sat at a table with a view of the sidewalk on a sunny but chilly day and this table was perfect. I hung out and worked a bit and enjoyed WiFi, soft (not too loud) music playing in the background and experienced the comings and goings of people in the neighborhood. They only use paper cups for coffee drinks and I missed holding a mug (and saving on waste) but I can imagine it was a well-thought-out decision since the space is small and a kitchen non -existent. It is sizable enough to handle a small crowd for mornings and afternoons with a breakfast bar, tables with chairs and on a sunny day, outdoor seating. I'm glad this spot is here.

Free wifi and open until 4, I love a coffee shop that can double as a workspace throughout the day. They have singular stations that allow for some privacy and focus, in addition to their tables and open seating. Prices are competitive, coffee is good, staff is kind. Bonus points for fun swag and the bird motif (Go Birds). Parking is street only, and given this is a popular thoroughway in Roxborough, it could be tricky to find a spot at peak times. However, Flying Sowth came through for me when I needed to take a work call and was stuck in Schuylkill traffic on a Thursday afternoon, and I snagged a spot right out front. This whole street is lined with great businesses. Take a stroll!

I took a seat out in the back by the station. Lots of tables around the exterior, and inside. For some reason wi-fi wasn't working well for me, so I hopped on the local Xfinity Mobile hotspot for a bit of work. Not a lot of large tables here, so only for 1 or 2 folks at a time. Otherwise, this is a great neighborhood cafe! No opinion on the coffee, since I actually haven't had anything caffeinated from a High Point yet.

Got it in a diner mug-- love drinking coffee at coffee shops in a mug. It just makes the coffee taste better, and I'm not sure how. This feels like a talking and catching up-priority coffee shop. Tables are a bit smaller, and the chairs not as comfy for long term sitting. However, the wi-fi remains strong, and it was good enough for 2 hours of work. I also had an outlet nearby ready, but didn't end up having to use it today. Coffee is great too! I love places that roast on-house and have their own beans, b/c you know that they care an extra bit more about the quality of their stuff. Will be back!

Folks behind the counter were helpful in getting setup on wi-fi and getting my drinks. Having a mug was a nice touch when staying in the cafe for ~an hour and a half. There's a good variety of seating. One tiny knock is that the counter is just off of the right height. I'd say I have about an average sized torso, but it felt like I was shoulder shrugging if I were to use my computer there. Moved to a table elsewhere and was able to get things done. Mood here is nice for both work and conversations. Wi-fi was struggling a little bit (didn't confirm with a speed test), so probably nothing high-demand can be done here. For some light writing it was good enough!
