Always a good place to visit. The baristas know their beans. However the food is average and sometimes could be improved. More

We had breakfast here last weekend. I had poached eggs with a side of mushrooms and sour dough which was nice but a bot expensive for what it was. The service was friendly and efficient. A good place to go for breaky, a cup of tea and to read the paper on the weekend. More

Just visited Three Bean for the first time this morning and was blown away by the service, the atmosphere, the food and the coffee. The staff are exceptionally friendly and can't do enough to help. The food is excellent, as are the cakes, and the coffee was particularly well done. They were very busy and I have heard they always... More

The first thing that struck me after an absence from visiting Three Bean was how expensive it had become. Eggs, any way, no extras, $14. My poached eggs looked good but were warm, not hot, suggesting they had been out of the water too long. One was very soft, one almost hard, very strange. Flavour was ok, but nothing special.... More

Best food, coffee, service. It's fabulous. Not open on Sundays, but they do such a good job on the other 6 days that they deserve a rest! More

Great breakfast continues. Costs a little more, but food is great and service friendly. Can be hard to get a table, so booking is recommended. More

Even as foodie who has no qualms paying for quality the prices here are wellover the top. But it is trendy and funky in worldk of average so locals "suck it up". Cofee is very good but dont add a cake. Good for diet! More

This place is such a rip off! Food is actually ok , just find it a bit annoying to Pay over 15 bucks for an egg on a small piece of sour dough bread! Not much choice on menu anymore? Went to this cafe a few years ago and don't recall it being so expensive ? Not sure what's going... More
