We stopped in before the Madison/Mayodan parade and we were super impressed with this coffee chop. Even amidst the parade crowd, we got our order in a timely fashion - no fuss. The girl working the register was also super friendly which we appreciate. The Christmas cookie latte was right up my alley. Gingerbread, cookie butter, and vanilla cold foam were the flavor profiles and you still get the bitter bite from a bold coffee. I'm more of a bold coffee drinker than a "more milk than coffee" person so this coffee was delicious. I'll certainly be back to try more! read more

They had plenty of seating available with. The walls were filled with art and lil homemade stuff you can purchase. Large glass store front with ample light coming in. Coffee was great the Cary many varieties on there menu. I will definitely be back to try more item on there menu and update this review! read more

The staff were incredibly friendly, the shop was adorable, and the food was delicious. Homemade food, great coffee, and wonderful people--an unexpectedly great experience.

Such a lovely coffee shop. I wasn't expecting the opportunity to shop as well. All the local vendors were so much fun to look at. I ordered a large, iced, butterscotch latte. They have the amazing small crunchy ice! It wasn't as sweet as I prefer but it was still good. What sold me over all was the ambiance and design of the shop. It was super cute and cozy. read more

Madbean is hands down my favorite coffee shop. I genuinely think their coffee tastes better than any big chain -- and it's not just the drinks. The warm atmosphere, kind staff, and customizable options make every visit special. They also have the best refreshers, fully approved by my fiancé, who doesn't usually like coffee. It's the first spot we both enjoy together! Even if you're not local, it's worth the drive. Their coffee is the perfect pick-me-up to energize your day. read more

The last time I visited was over 2 years ago. At that time, I invited my bridal party to meet there for lunch. We had a great time and wonderful food & drinks! My mom and I were back in the area last month and remembered how much we enjoyed it, so we stopped back in. We had no idea they had closed down their kitchen. It's only a coffee shop now that also introduced some cute trinkets, gem stones, stickers, etc for sale. I love the vibe. It's definitely still worth stopping in & their staff is great, but soooo disappointing they don't have food anymore. read more

First time here. Loooved the chicken salad wrap. I love one with grapes and pickles. Good flavor. If you hate onions maybe don't get it but if you like them go for it. My friend got the pimento cheese quesadilla and it was very good. Both served with chips. Prices are great. Didn't get the coffee but also looked good. They also had canned goods and paper goods to sell... maybe because of the Covid times? Will def come back when visiting my friend! Hidden gem that seems out of place here.

Unacceptable! Had to settle for 3 slices of roast beef, a leaf of lettuce , and 4 chunks of a tomato on chibata bread. Ugh.

This was my first visit to The Mad Bean. I was in this small town for a meeting. And was in desperate need of a cup of coffee and hopefully a pastry. The inside is absolutely precious. The coffee not so much. I asked for a dark brew and was told that the pot had just been made and refills were free. There was a large chocolate chip cookie wrapped in plastic wrap, and I chose that. This was a take along order. The female server was confused by my phone payment and said that the internet was having problems. I handed her my physical metal card and she didn't know how to use it. We settled for a normal bank card. I can understand all of these issues. Got in my car and drove away. Everything I ordered was unedible. The coffee was like drinking colored water and the cookie was so stale and hard that it crumbled when I broke it. Everything went into the trash. I don't know if I'll be returning to this town again. But if I do ... I won't return to The Mad Bean. read more

I'll start by saying the service up front was great! However the kitchen was awful! The food was wrong, 2 times, and was terrible. The salsa and sour cream that was supposed to come with our nachos came 10 minutes after the nachos, we never got the jalapeños, and the salsa served to us was rancid. When the cook did bring out our meal replacements, she slammed them on the table and walked away with no apology whatsoever. The front staff lady was very attentive and tried her best to make things right. However, I would not recommend eating the food here. read more

Let me start off by saying that I'm not from NC. There aren't a lot of breakfast/coffee shops in Madison - atleast from what I gather. It's unfortunate that there weren't more people - however, if you're ever wary to stop in - DO IT!!! It's adorable, cozy, warm - I went on a rainy day and I honestly didn't want to leave. I ordered coffees (which were better than any Starbucks I've been) - they unfortunately only have only one type though - still great. I had pancakes and an omelet - pancakes were alright - the omelet was YUMMMYY !!! Different than anything I tried in NJ/NY. They also have live/local musicians play on certain nights - I will definitely stop by to hear some music before I head out of town. But GOOOO GOOOO GOOO to the Mad Bean! read more

I am very excited to have a good coffee house by me here. To start off this review lets go with the positives. First the coffee it self is great. I had a macchiato where the coffee was pronounced but not over bearing and not to darkly roasted and very caffinated. The staff ,a husband and wife team, are very friendly. The bulding it's self is an old place with lots of creeks but that is just part of it's charm. It has lots of nice comfy seating to spend some time reading a book. They also say they have live music every weekend but as I haven't seen it i am not really factoring that in my current rateing. Now for why only 3 stars at this point. Currently the selection of drink choices are limited, basicly cappuccino, macchiato, and coffee. Teas are just biglow bags and not much for food choices. Also the big deduction for me is the wait time is a bit excessive currently. For 3 drinks it took almost 10 min with no one ahead of us. If they can get that speed up some, as I am sure they will with experience, then I will gladly up my score. read more

It's a small space - a few tables inside and a few tables out - but don't let that or the line you are likely to encounter deter you. They crank out sandwiches quickly here. Said sandwiches include about two dozen hot and cold offerings as well as the ability to build your own. The meats are Boar's Head, but the desserts and soups are made fresh in-house. Check out the display case for salads and sides that might catch your eye. O'Brien's prides itself on its Reuben, and so I went with the "mini" version (a quarter rather than a half pound of meat) with a pickle for my first visit here. Ordering at the register was a breeze, and I was fortunate enough to snag one of the tables for dine-in. Though I was a bit skeptical that the Reuben would match the hype, it delivered. I don't know that it is without a doubt the best version I've had, but it is definitely up there. The grilled rye was nice and crisp, and I appreciated that they used both mustard and Russian dressing. That, plus the meat, kraut, and melty cheese, made for a very satisfying bite. At $10, the sandwich proved a good value, too. Unpretentious and nostalgically comforting (for Northern transplants, at least), O'Brien's is a well-oiled sandwich-slinging machine. Though that Reuben will be hard to top, I look forward to giving one of their other offerings (maybe a Cuban, maybe a Spicy Italian) a try.

Breaking it down by item..the scrambled eggs were the softest I've probably ever had cooked on a flattop, the bacon was crispy, the way I like it, the sausage patty was decent, but not otherworldly, the ham was a bit on the salty side, but better than too sweet. The hashbrowns were good, but I forgot to order extra crispy (been a while since I was out for breakfast). The grits, sawmill gravy, apples, and biscuits were all very good in flavor and texture, and the hot cocoa was rich without being too sweet. Definitely have to get the gf down here some time.

Good southern food. In a lot of ways, a trip down memory lane. Very nostalgic and great atmosphere…read morewhere people are talking to each other instead of glued to their phone.

Not bad. Been wanting to try this place out for maybe about 6 months or so…read more It is very small. Wasn't too big on that. I don't believe my friend and I were greeted when we walked in. Only 1 table and 2 chairs...and then 2 or 3 solo chairs right near the front door that ppl were sitting in. Positive was that our drinks were made perfectly without any modifications or adjustments needed. Not too sweet. Perfect amount of sweetness. The third star given is based on this solely. Oh and they randomly sell ice cream! I doubt I'd return though....

This place was SO CUTE. I was looking for a cute coffee shop, sometimes is smaller areas like this…read morethey're hard to find, so I was so excited to find this spot. They have SO many options, literally a wall of syrups, they can make anything you want. It was so hard to make a decision! They have a top notch espresso machine, so their espresso was super delicious. Great coffee drinks, this will definitely be my spot when I'm in town.
