    Excellent food and great music. Wish we could give more than 5 stars!! Clean and pleasant atmosphere.

    Bagels!!!!! Perfect fluffy bagels (from the Bistro Bakery in Westboro)
    Marcy L.

    When we moved to Blackstone Valley we knew that the one of the things we would miss the most would be the presence of a great coffee and bagel spot. Well cry no more, for the Valley Bean hath cometh! Right off of rt16, diagonal from the CVS , is this small corner shop. Parking in front is tight, but go around back and there are a few more spots. VB is warm, clean and full of light and the sweet sweet smell of delicious carbohydrates. There are s few small tables and a counter so that you may sit and enjoy your munchies in-house, but I can imagine that this place fills up quickly. We took our order "to-go": - marbled bagel with sausage egg and cheese - onion bagel with lite veggie cream cheese - medium hazelnut coffee (hot) - medium butternut coffee (iced) == $12 Let me just tell you that everything was deeeeelicious. My onion bagel: toasted perfectly: crisp on the outside and still fluffy and warm on the inside. There are a few things that they're still working out....but the atmosphere, service, flavor, and price are all so wonderful that we don't mind riding the wave until they get sorted. Hoping to see non-styrofoam cup options (that's a deal breaker for me) and a bit more signage (breakfast sandwiches, meat/cheese/cream cheese options, and just pricing in general). I'm sure that VB will become a big thing for the surrounding towns; welcome to the block!

    Pastrami and egg on a Asiago bagel

    So I've been hearing about this place from my brother and went the other day. It's definitely a spot for locals it seemed the majority of the staff knew the customers I love that in any restaurant. I got coffee and bagel sandwiches the prices are cheaper then dunkin or honeydew and the food is better It only took a few minutes for sandwiches to be ready. Coffee was fantastic be aware they have like 30 options for flavors I was overwhelmed. Sandwiches were very good my only complaint would be the garlic on the bagel was brunt which gave a very bitter taste to my sandwich. The sandwich my wife got was outstanding so maybe it was just a bad day for the garlic bagels. I would definitely recommend this place I will say it's not good for groups more then 4 people very small inside.

    Coffee and croissant

    I love the Valley Bean! My sister and I go there all the time when I'm home from school it's our favorite place :) the staff are super sweet and the iced coffee flavors are *chef's kiss* (I just wish they stuck with the plastic cups rather than styrofoam) But I LOVE valley bean AHHH

    This bagel was just not good. Also the home fries were soggy. Not the worst but not the best.

    My hands bound behind the wooden chair, my eyes blindfolded, and my mouth open in a pained gasp,…read morethat's what this place feels like. All the machinations and trappings of a good breakfast diner, but a significant lack of closing the deal. Did the owner lose the spark? Did franchising kill the heart? The coffee is definitely coffee, the muffins were muffin-shaped, but that's all. In short, it was high school, basic, and a total tease. Just like my ex. It is a leave-you-hanging, almost-there, edge of an experience. I am certain they will earn my 5th star in due time, probably once they learn where the salt and pepper is, but until then, meh.

    I was really torn about how to rate this restaurant since there are so few options in Mendon -- I'm…read moreprobably one of the old timers who just misses having Lowell's in its old, convenient location. I think the thing to remember about places like this in this area is that there are lots of breakfast/lunch diner places but they call close at 2 or 3pm and they, for the most part, are a little pricey. So, let's start with the good parts: there are lots of food options, including many veggie and even some gluten-free choices, which is important when you have a family member with food restrictions. Their espresso is decent. It's a medium roast, so not as dark and earthy as Starbucks, but still pretty good. I've been here with family and friends, and everyone has always enjoyed their food. They hire locals, including many high school kids and recent grads, which I appreciate. Now, the drawbacks that made me hover between 2 and 3 stars... First, the wait time. There is no reason it should take so long to order or to get your food. There are tons of staff here. I don't know what's going on that it takes so long, but it does. Secondly, the tables and booths are not cleaned often or well. There are always crumbs, coffee rings, spilled water, used napkins, etc., either on seats or on the table. Even when people bus their own tables, which they do, they need to be wiped down regularly, and they aren't. The floor was sticky and "crunchy" last time I was there, and I have to say the sticky floor thing is a pretty regular occurrence. And, the last three times I used the bathroom, it was either not clean or not stocked. When I visited with my father a few months ago, I ordered coffee, and he had coffee with a sandwich. His food arrived with the wrong items, and the bread was not toasted, as he had requested. It also took more than 30 minutes. If they could speed up the process and assign one of their many staff members to continually clean the busy seating area, I think that would bump this up to four stars easily.
