BeanTowne Coffee House

The people at BeanTowne Coffee House are absolutely amazing they all go out of their way to accommodate you and to ensure you have a great day! After moving to Hampstead, I have made it my go to coffee place as they are nice, understanding, and put customer service on the top of their list! They have wicked good cold brew and lattes! They have the BEST homemade pumpkin chocolate chip muffins too. Thank you BeanTowne for being such a a great local coffee shop!

First time here. Their coffee flavor is phenomenal. Prices are really fair for this economy. Portions are hearty (we had 2 different breakfast wraps) and food tastes great. The entire staff is super friendly and the decorations are really fun. So glad we came here today!

VERY noisy. Very. There is nothing relaxing and pleasant about this place, you have to shout over the noise of grinders, espresso makers and whatever else is behind counter in order to talk at your table. I wish you would put as much effort into minimizing “noise pollution “ as you do with your interesting menu and pleasing decorations. Put your phone on the counter and set it to record, let it go for ten minutes or so, and when you play it back you will see what I’m talking about.

Been here a couple of times and we are always impressed by the quality of the food, fresh and very tasty. That turkey salad wrap is killer. Great coffee offerings. The place is very clean and the ambiance music pair perfectly with the vibe they are going for. The staff is very respectful and easy going.

What a fantastic spot! I stopped in looking for a quick bite and was amazed at how cozy and cute this place is! Kim helped me pick out some pastries and I ended up trying the apple cider scone and crumb cake…. YUM. Both were incredibly fresh with an impeccable flavor. I also tried the flax bar (which they are known for) and I highly recommend it. I am so excited to return to BeanTowne to try more!

Nice little coffee shop. Good for co-working you can plug in here. I got a Pollo alla panna sandwich with broccoli. Plus they play cocteau twins here.

We came for a friend that worked here, we stayed for the great food and we will be returning because of the family like community they create!

After three years of driving past this place (I'm usually running late) and hearing its name regularly dropped by my customers (I work locally), I decided today was the day!! Word of mouth did not disappoint!! I decided to take the breakfast burrito and cocoa on a test run!! Out of this world!! The service is so efficient I got breakfast and to work on time!! The environment is warm and welcoming which I love!! I foresee many more stops in my future!!

Great sandwiches (chipotle, chicken) clean place, nice people. Just travelling through, found it on Yelp.

Great for breakfast, brunch or lunch. Really good coffee and tea. It's clean and bright. The selections are plenty and the service is spot on. I will return many times.

Little yuppy coffee shop with decent sandwiches. Takes forever if there are more than a couple of people, and it's a bit expensive for what you get.

I always stop by Beantowne for an iced latte or cold brew when I'm visiting my family in NH. I love that they have so many awesome rotating drink specials and delicious food. They also have a few spots to sit outdoors, spacious indoor dining area and great parking. Some of their bagels/sandwiches are a little bland, but still really good. This is a great place to grab a coffee and do some work.

Yummy smoothies and breakfast sandwiches, my other half says it was one of the best cold brews he's had!

Taste:4 ive had the sausage egg and cheese on bagel and the cubano. Both were good. the breakfast sandwhich tasted exactly like heavenly donuts does. the cubano is not what i would consider authentic but its an ok version and did the job. Value: 3 they are a bit on the pricier end for what it is but not bad at all. Presentation: 4 everything I've ordered has been neatly wrapped in parchment paper and it is very cool nice neat and clean. Service: 4 friendly staff quick and easy transactions every time. Overall:4 nice place to have in my rotation close proximity to work.

I don't really like this place. I might be in the minority and that is fine. I am very much entitled to my opinion. This is Yelp..... The staff is stuffy, the menu is very limited and prices are high. Went to the place with my girlfriend and she ordered an iced coffee and a bagel. They told her they stopped selling bagels at 11am and it was 11:20am. I saw them on a shelf in the back but they refused to sell her one. Just stupid. Sell what you have to a customer standing in your store with money. Again, stuffy.

Love this place! I stop in every time I'm visiting my boyfriends family in Hampstead. I'm addicted to their flax bars! This morning we ordered the healthy breakfast wrap and the breakfast burrito. Both our wraps were delicious! We'll definitely be back.

Great coffee great people. Very Personable. The coffee is fresh and made perfectly every time.

I went to Beantown for the first time for lunch a couple of weeks ago. I got the Farmers Market Chicken Salad Sandwich on a cuisant. The cuisant was stale and there was a very small portion of chicken salad, which was just ok.

Great place to grab your favorite coffee beverage and a snack! Prices are also very reasonable.

Love love love this place. Coffee is always hot, bagels are fresh & yummy & their breakfast sandwiches are delicious. Nice cozy place to sit & enjoy!!!!

Decent coffee just a bit over priced. The mochas are made with homemade hot chocolate so that's cool at least

Pricey but yummy!!!! The breakfast burrito is always my go to. Chefs kiss. Staff are friendly and the peanut butter flax bars are to die for.

I just had the best lattes that I had ever had. Made hot with frothed whole MILK and homemade pure sugar syrup and a dash of nutmeg. Pure indulgence. What a cute cafe! Local ART on the walls and free wi-fi. I will definably come here again when I am in the area and skip the Double D.

Some days I really like it, some days I don't... Pros: Flax bars, iced dirty chai lattes, convenient to where I work. Cons: Generally a long wait to receive your order(no matter the size.) Staff isn't the friendliest.

Pros: -Hot sandwiches are great (try the ginger apricot as a wrap and warmed up) Cons: -Grill to make warm sandwiches is turned off early each day, so if you arrive close to closing time, they can't make your food...(I got there 30 minutes before close and they couldn't make it) -They run out of ingredients a lot (no chicken, had to sub in turkey, no cookies or brownies)

A great place for delicious coffee and amazing sandwiches. Clean & friendly. Ricky remembers my order every visit - love the personal touch!

Arrived on a Friday afternoon around 3 pm for a late lunch. Found this on a google search of nearby restaurants. Cute setting and friendly staff. My friend and I decided to share two pressed wraps: the chicken chipotle and the cubano both in a spinach wrap. The cubano appeared to be made with slices of ham vs. pork, had very spicy peppers and a runny dressing. The chipotle chicken was very good. Slices of chicken breast, sauteed mushrooms, bacon and was our favorite of the two. Very reasonably priced, around $9.00 including a bottled water. We had to try the coffee based on the reviews. My friend ordered a regular hot coffee and the young lady commented "if it's not hot enough, we can heat it for you". That was an immediate turn off indicating the coffee has probably been sitting around for a while. A little disappointing based on the rave reviews about their coffee. I had a decaf and we both concluded the coffee was "meh". Along with our coffee, we had two sweet treats: an oatmeal chocolate chip cookie and a vegan cookie. Both were OK, nothing to rave about. Glad we tried this place but would not go out of our way to return.

We've stopped by this spot for a reliably delicious bite a few times but they won our hearts on one particular visit. We take our dogs to the vet down the street and as often happens, we had to put one of our dogs down. Bloodshot eyes my husband requested some bacon on the side for our dog. We expected a stingy slice or two of bacon but reading the writing on the wall they generously gave us a huge helping of cut up bacon and sausage. It was a good last meal for a very good dog.

So many gluten free options!!! Makes me feel generally seen as a person who has gluten sensitivities.

Haven't been since Rona! Sandwiches are always fresh. Amd I love the Iced Mochas by far the best iced coffee ive ever had.

Worked in area for approximately 7 months. This became a go to for breakfast / lunch or a coffee. Great staff and delicious food. Highly recommend

I have lived in the Hampstead area most of my life and love the small town atmosphere. We had our first Dunkin Donuts in '91 (ish) and that is what I grew up on... Who needs some "snoody" coffee shop where I'd most likely be berated by turtleneck-wearing poetry readers with their high-noses and collegiate attitudes? That was my opinion when BeanTowne opened -- So I waited almost two years before I went inside. I am now there 8 days a week and most likely have spent more on BeanTowne in the past year then I have on fuel for my car. Take it from me, a super-fan, raving fan, customer, and COFFEE LOVER (understatement) -- Check this place out. Sidenote: I have a client that has been known to drive from Groveland MA just to get a Latte... Then back to his office in Methuen. Yes, it's that good.

As a student, I am always on the hunt for good places to study and have a great cup of coffee. Beantowne is the best place I have found in this area that fits these two categories. The food (including soups, quiche, salads, sandwiches, and pastries) and beverages are delicious. Their espresso is locally roasted and tastes amazing. The building itself has great ambiance with places for individuals as well as groups to sit. It's evident that the owners care about their business. What really makes this place though are the people working there. The staff are excellent in customer service and very friendly; from the minute I walked in, I felt welcomed. Shout outs to both Delaney and Mike for making my experience memorable. I will definitely be back in soon for a study session and a mocha.

Great lattes, breakfast wraps and coffee. Friendly and knowledgeable staff and we bought a bag of beans for home.

Been going to BeanTowne for close to 10 years. Continually the best coffee and food around. Great atmosphere and fantastic service!

A quaint coffee house in the Hampstead area. There's a lot of vegan and gluten-free options for those on such diets. There's also nice art work. For iced coffees they only had small or large, and a small was almost $3. They have Simple syrup on the table with the creams and milks, which I thought was different, and they have local honey. There's also plenty of tables and seats. P.S. For canned sodas and juices they have this Austria Apple Cinnamon drink, which I got out of curiosity and it was pretty tasty. I'd come back, the coffee wasn't out of the ordinary, but looking at their menu, I can't wait to try one of their wraps.

Super welcoming staff, very friendly, and all of the covid precautions were in place. I felt really safe and welcomes and their smoothie was amazing!

I've never had anything here that isn't delicious. Staff is always friendly. A little pricey but worth it!

Who just drove past ten or so Dunkin Donuts and a Starbucks during a 25 minute drive for a cup of coffee at Bean Towne? I did. And you can bet your sweet bippy I'm going to do again. There's nothing wrong with Dunkin Donuts coffee if that's the taste you're after; think of it like going to McDonald's for a burger when you could be eating a nice certified angus beef burger cooked to order. Sometimes you just want the Big Mac. Well, Bean Towne serves up the CAB of coffee: the only thing I think could make the coffee better would be if they roasted it themselves. They don't, currently, but the barista said they were currently taking roasting classes and roasting is on their "to do" list. We bought a bag of whole bean Ethiopian Yirgacheffe and it was a little dark roasted for my preference so I'm looking forward to seeing how they do it. I ordered a large Americano with four shots of espresso; usually their large has three. I watched as the barista ground the beans and tamped them to perfection pulling out even shots in about 20 seconds or so. Given my husband also ordered a quad Americano, I watched her do it twice. Fresh beans, proper grind, good pressured tamps = excellent crema and a coffee drink which isn't bitter or stale tasting. I'd swear to you that Americano was the best thing that happened to me all week! We both ordered breakfast sandwiches: egg, cheddar and sausage. It comes served on a bagel of your choice but I ask for a croissant and they gladly obliged. While the croissant was flaky, buttery and fresh tasting, the sandwich was better suited for the bagel as it "fit" and there wasn't any excess breading with the bagel. My favorite coffee shops tend to be casual and encourage loafing about while reading books or your laptop but most of the seating at Bean Towne are two-top tables with hard wooden chairs. Yes, there is a sofa and arm chair and yes, they have free WiFi, but the rest of the place is filled with two-tops. There was some local art on the walls and hand crafted jewely for sale too but the shop definitely didn't feel like a place I wanted to spend a leisurely weekend morning sipping coffee, taking in the newspaper and hanging out with friends. I'd love to see the wall space lined with cloth lined booths or vintage loveseats; it's about the only place Starbuck's is any competition and the only thing Dunkin Donuts has on par with Bean Towne. I will absolutely come back; I haven't found coffee worth mentioning and this place definitely delivers.

One of the best coffee shops I have been to. They carry some locally roasted coffees and have a great selection that is always well prepared. Service is friendly and they do a good job of moving the line quickly. There are many sandwiches and breakfast items to choose from. Bagels always go quick here. They have a frequent shopper card too which helps when you frequent it a lot! Nice to see this place thrive where other chains are always popping up.

This place is amazing. I've never been less than overly impressed with my food and drink there. They put Starbucks lattes to shame (and those are pretty yummy), and make me say "Dunkin who?" as their regular coffee is always just perfect. The food is always fresh and there is a great variety of healthy and just plain indulgently yummy. The other part to this place is the staff. They're always smiling, very friendly, and helpful. I can walk in there in a bad to so-so mood, and walk out with a big smile on my face (and usually a giggle under my belt after I see the heart in my latte).

This place is just beyond wonderful. The staff is always smiling and happy to see you. It doesn't take very long for them to get your orders down (they know now when I go in that when I get a coffee I'll need the soy milk). Everything they make is delicious, and always fresh. They've recently added a bunch of new menu items including smoothies, and are constantly asking customers for feedback to find out what they can do to make things better. It just doesn't get better than this. Now if they'd only open a new location in Salem so I can visit them multiple times a day during work with my fellow caffeine addicts! :)

If you like incredible coffee, awesome specialty sandwiches, terrific atmosphere, courteous staff, etc. then you definitely should stop in! Their coffee won the Specialty Coffee Association Golden Cup Award. They have a menu of sandwiches (they change items on the sandwich, if requested). They also have weekly specials. They always have some kind of promotion going which is geared to help the community. They play really good music and have continuely changing art on the walls (local artists) which adds to the atmosphere. They also have beautiful jewelry for sale created by a local artist. The plaza (located near the intersection of Rt 121 & Rt 111) has many high-end shops. There is The Prime Butcher, The Wine Steward, a bakery, and Pentucket Bank. You can do most of your shopping in one location! I stop in all the time and have always had a positive experience.

I can't believe all the years I have been going here, I have never written a review! I like how friendly the folks are who work here. I am by no means a regular, I still get a super friendly hello when I stop by. The lattes are fantastic, and the sandwiches are uncommon and wonderful. I love how they support the community - not so common in this day and age. Highly recommend!

This place has decent food, but the small inside leaves you in close quarters with others if there's a place to sit at all. The owner is gruff, the service is lacking and it's uncomfortable inside. It will do fine because it's the only cafe type spot in the area, but stick to takeout or eat somewhere else.

I stopped into BeanTowne Coffee House & Cafe for lunch while working last week and was extremely impressed. I ordered a chicken sandwich, called Southwest, that had sour cream, cheese, pinto beans and avocado (I was in love as soon as I read the description; how atypical and refreshing). It was pretty darn good. But what sent me through the roof was the spinach side salad (the Protein Powerhouse) I got. What deliciousness. The balsamic dressing was killer!! It seemed home-made to me, and I'd be shocked if it wasn't. Next time I go, I need to find out if I can buy a jug of it! (Side note: I usually detest balsamic vinaigrette, so major props to this place for that :) I'll try to remember to post updates as I continue to try new things here. In the meantime, check them out! :)

Beantowne is, far and away, my favorite coffee house/lunch stop. Everything I've tried, from the coffee to the Latte's to the salads and sandwiches, is fantastic!

Awesome coffee. My wife loves their lattes and other fancy drinks that I don't dabble in (I'm a boring coffee guy everywhere, not just here). Community oriented shop that did a lot for the young family of local police officer who passed away from cancer.

We stopped here for breakfast and were thoroughly impressed. This place is better than your typical Dunkin Donuts (and I love DD, so that's saying something!) Described by some as "the local Cheers, where everyone knows your name," the coffeehouse has a real small-town charm. The place is extremely clean and the food is fresh. Being from NY, I'm always skeptical of trying bagels outside NY, but the pumpernickel bagel was excellent. Prices were extremely reasonable ($1.95 for a bagel with cream cheese). The coffee stole the show. It had rich and complex flavors, and immediately evoked images of sipping coffee in the winter while looking out at the falling snow. It was delicious. I definitely recommend BeanTowne Coffee House. We will certainly be back next time we're in the neighborhood.

Just like every other place that employs hipster millennials. They're too wrapped up in their personal conversations to care about the customer experience. Also kind of gross that they openly eat while making the food. All I wanted was a sandwich, is it too much to ask for some hospitality on the side?

Thrilled to be able to purchase an expertly pulled latte or some delicious french pressed ice coffee near the camp my husband's working at for the summer. This place stands out where the usual suspects (DD) abound. The yogurt parfait with fresh raspberries is really a delicious way to start the morning. Everyone is so nice here, too. When I've been in early during the week, I think the owner is there, always with a bright smile. The weekend staff is equally as friendly and efficient.

WARNING!!!!! This establishment has effectively ruined me to all other coffee shops. The coffee is so good, that you will forever be trying to figure out what to do when you aren't in the area! My drink of choice is the cold brew ice coffee with raspberry flavor. Try it. You will not regret.

Wonderful local coffee and sandwich shop! Delicious cold brew coffee - can add any flavor! Homemade quiche is a must try! Fresh fruit was a bonus too! Great atmosphere to sit and work using their WiFi! Not too noisy and had great background music! They clearly have a great following and I will be back again! Thanks for the wonderful service!

OK, so FINALLY a coffeehouse that serves real espresso drinks! I knew you were out there! From the moment I stepped in to BeanTowne, I could tell it was a bonafide coffeehouse... the espresso bean grinder grinding, the steam wand hissing, the espresso machine brewing.... music to my ears! I am so happy to have found a place to get a real espresso drink... and you know what? They know what they're doing too! The mocha I ordered was excellent! This is now my go to place for coffee. Great job Beantowne! Open up one closer to Methuen and Salem!

A little pricey, but it's a coffee house, and the food is fantastic, so it's forgivable. Stopped here for a late lunch one day, there wasn't too much else to choose from in the area. They were still willing to make the breakfast items, which my friend got the total breakfast wrap and it was amazing. Think of your standard eggs/bacon/homefries breakfast platter all rolled into one neat (and giant sized) tortilla wrap. I ordered the cobb salad which was good, portion was on the small side, but it had a lot of ingredients instead of a bowl of just lettuce. Would definitely visit again for lunch or a small snack when I'm in the area.

Great service, great coffee, keeping it local. The staff is always super friendly and the food is also delicious. The peanut butter flax bars are awesome. The bagels are also great - the one thing that Can be tough is that they can run out of food late morning because they have been so busy lately. It does seem like they just hired some new staff and have more food now to combat this which is great. Keep up the good work !

Not Bad, Usually run out of bagels early. Should offer larger cups for the ice coffee. Recent egg sandwich was cold cheese not melted.
