Our take on The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf at Guthrie House is that it offers a generally pleasant environment for a casual drink or meeting, often highlighted by commendable staff service.
Reviewers frequently praise specific staff members like Afina for their politeness and helpfulness, even extending kindness to a child unable to pay immediately.
The branch is noted for being more spacious than others, providing a good atmosphere for relaxation or short business meetings, with some comfortable seating options available.
However, a recurring point of contention is the ice-to-liquid ratio in their drinks, with one customer specifically citing a $7.50 chai latte having excessive ice, leading to a very small drink volume.
There are also observations about staff appearing overworked and a lack of consistency regarding specific requests like heavy cream for coffee.
While the Eggs Benedict (or 'eggs Ben') is mentioned positively, the selection of pastries beyond sweet options seems limited.
We think it's a reliable spot for a quick coffee or a quiet corner, but be prepared to specify 'less ice' for your beverages.
