Bellmore Bean Cafe

Just went there for the first time. My wife, daughter, and me got 3 different types of coffee. They were all excellent, as were the employees.

Friendly staff!
Good coffee (and great «flavorings»).
Cozy décor (pretty much basic boho-​coffee shop… slap-​dash funky retro look – but PLEASE destroy all those fake metal 1950s styled signs that the sell in malls ! You know the ones. Just tacky. The Bellmore Station Flea Market is right outside their door; they could have shopped for REAL funky signs and wall art there instead of Home Goods) Whatever. Even if they had to do that «Let’s staple all the cool old record album covers on the wall» thing – that would have been better. (Or Funky Coffee Shop Décor 101: staple old board game boards to the walls idea.)
My only REAL issue here is that they charge Garden City prices for a Bellmore location that’s next door to all the trash bars & train station. Get what I’m sayin’?
I will return.

Continues to be an inviting, cozy place to regroup and have a good cup of coffee. No where near as superb as our favorite Gentle Brew in Long Beach but certainly worth the trip for the comfortable couches, open, uncluttered feel and relics on the wall. Live music Fri and Sat nights with open mike on Thurs. a few beers that are 5.00 on tap and 3 bucks in cans after 7 pm. Larger bottle selection. Always nice when there’s reading material and games to pass the time although I was happy to just sink into the velvet couch and bat my lashes at my love.

Oh god this place. I’ve tried to like it, really. I wish these these people would step their game up or get replaced with a real coffee place already.
People like it here because of the décor, or the «ambiance». Whatever. I couldn’t care less if I’m sitting in a place that looks like the inside of a Home Goods or not. So this rating is not about that– it’s about COFFEE!!! How can you be called Bellmore Bean and not even have beans?
This «coffee» is disgusting. The people are nice, but c’mon, this is a typical fake it till you make it type of place. They do not know anything about coffee. Every coffee place should know the basics: espresso, macchiato, cappuccino, mocha, latte, etc. It is a red flag when I order an iced mocha and you ask me if I want coffee in it. (It makes sense now why the last time a ordered a hot mocha it tasted like hot chocolate.)
They do not pull real shots. They seem to use an espresso concentrate which, is disgusting. Why can’t you pull a real shot? Is that not a huge espresso machine sitting on the counter, or is that just a part of your cool, trendy décor? They are stumped with confusion if you ask them for a shot of espresso. Not to mention, for the price of this coffee you’d think they were roasting beans in the back all day. Nope.
This place is the definition of poorly done coffee. I have been here many times, and never have I been even remotely satisfied. Hell, I live 60 seconds walking from this place. Granted though, I have not tried any of their 50 foo-​foo flavors on the wall– maybe that’s where all the hidden talent is at? Doubt it. Management or whoever owns this place should invest in sending these employees to learn about the basics of coffee and the art of espresso drinks. Oh, and buy some espresso beans ;)

This place gets 2 stars solely on décor. The inside is very cute and cozy but the cappuccinos were overpriced and tasted awful.

I have to say this place is the most laid back coffee shop I’ve ever been too, the atmosphere and experience is amazing. I have never ever felt so stress free in my life. The coffee is amazing. I got the toasted marshmallow caramel machiatto and it was hands down one of the best items on the menu. If your looking for a place to REALLY relax, this is the place. Whoever did the interior design for this place gets an A+. The music choice is really eclectic too with range of genres and everytime you walk in its a different one unlike some places (cough) *Starbucks* (cough) with the same boring slow tempo music. I have to admit this is the best coffee spot on long island.

I stopped in here with my wife on my way to a family event on Long Island, and we were both impressed. Bellmore had never really had a place like this, a casual coffee shop that caters to a younger crowd, and we were intrigued to try it. Since it was a cold fall day, we both had hot apple cider, which was very high quality, and we were impressed by the variety in the menu. It was also a nice, cozy space, which was very conducive to relaxing and socializing until it was time to head to our event. I will definitely be back.

Average coffee place. Long Island doesn’t have many of these, so it’s nice that there is one to go to. The menu is pretty good, but the open mic nights or music that they had was really bad. The service is okay, everyone working seems kind of indifferent. But they have some good coffee, adequate seating, and have some nice parking.

Let’s just say AMAZING. This place is one of the best places in Bellmore Village. It is a quaint little place with fabulous décor. This décor includes a saxophone and other musical instruments mounted on the walls-​how cool! Don’t get me started on their hot cocoa. Try them all. I prefer the campfire hot cocoa, I don’t know what’s in it but wow is it good. A cup of that and, to add, the best seats in the world. Overall ⁵⁄₅

Loved this hidden gem! The treats were delicious and the coffee was fresh and not mass produced. The atmosphere is adorable, I brought my laptop and sat for three hours catching up on work. The staff were super friendly and excited too be working there. How cool is it that you can also have beer and wine here! So excited about this joint.

Super cute place with great service and amazing coffee. The rainbow cookie latte I had was delicious, surprisingly not too sweet and just the right amount of caffeine. The atmosphere is super relaxed, a nice place to sip my coffee and read a book.

This place is cozy and great for good conversing. I also like the ambiance, with the little juke box and large checker board table. Will visit here again…

So i have lived 5 mins away from this spot for the entire time its been open and never went. Why? i have no clue. So today coming home from another grueling day of nonsense i was dying for something sweet and passed by and said HEY i like iced coffee they must have sweets too. So i pulled in the lot and went inside. Really cute hipster looking place. Picture beanies and wool skull caps and skinny jeans. All of which i am not. At all. It was really quiet with some couches and flat screen tv (not on). Reminded me of a library almost. They have 3 tap beers and had a special Sangria too. But i was here for my sugar high. I got the chocolate strawberry iced coffee and the oreo cheesecake. They really didn’t have much but its a small place. 3 different cakes, couple muffins, some crumb cake looking thing and biscotti. They also had a freezer of some weird looking cake pop/​ice cream balls. Very quirky. The chick made my coffee and it was really damn good. Tasted just like Chocolate covered strawberries what is this magic you do? I also want to try rainbow cookie and Jelly ring. I haven’t had the cake yet but it looks like a Costco or BJ’s like standard cheesecake thing. Ill def stop back soon. Of course they have every basic bitch’s Pumpkin everything too. So throw on an infinity scarf, your ugg boots and fedora and grab yourself a good decent iced coffee.

I’m not a huge coffee fanatic but this place has a nice vibe and good coffee. Great place to meet a friend and catch up. Both my girlfriend and I had the café latte and it was good.

Love this place! For music and coffee, I love to come here with my friends and family!

Overall:
Gem of a place hidden away in Bellmore.
Food:
I’ve been there a couple times and have had a couple different baked goods. both were fantastic. coffee is very good and strong, and seems to be roasted on premises (I’m guessing, not verified)
Service:
Excellent.
Décor/​atmosphere:
great little place with comfortable seats to chat, or tables to do work. They have live music sometimes too. It can get a little loud but it’s live music.
Value
It’s not cheap, but not expensive. you’re not getting Dunkin donuts prices, but you’re not getting DD quality either. It’s excellent.
Will I be back?
Yes!

Stopped in to this cute /​hip coffee shop for a cup of joe & croissant. The coffee was excellent, however the croissant was supermarket quality and almost stale — a major disappointment. The plate was chipped as well. BBC has live music and open mic at night. Strong Wifi signal so you could google photos of Kim Kardashian’s ass with the speed of a gazelle.

I’ve only been here once but it was so cute! I got a frozen mocha drink. A little pricey but so good! The décor is adorable and they have different types of seating to try out.
They had a cute little boutique in there when I came.
I would definitely go back again!

Such a cute spot! Love the décor and ambiance.
They seemed to have a lot of great coffee options here. I ended up getting a rainbow cookie coffee, which I have never heard of ANYWHERE. And it was fabulous.
It is a rather spacious coffee house with an open floor plan. A lot less stuffy then some other coffeehouses I have been to. I also dont get a grungy, dirty vibe from it.
Excited to go back on a night when there is live music!

This is a cozy coffee shop tucked away in Bellmore Village. I like the atmosphere here. I also really enjoyed the open mic night. It was nice to see family and friends supporting their loved ones during performances.
I found the coffee to be good too. I’m no coffee conseuieer, but I thought my americano was one of the better ones I’ve had. It had a mild roast and was very smooth.
