My husband and I have a travel tradition of coffee adventuring. We find local coffee shops on our travel route to indulge in our morning cup. We scored by finding Z Beans in Macon today. The historic Macon downtown was worth the half mile off Hwy 16 to begin with. The little cafe was adorable, though not super cozy it was clean and super interesting with the owner’s story and pictures of the coffee farms in Ecuador. The girl who took my order was very helpful and knowledgeable. She managed my questions with grace. So we ordered the Cherry Blossom in honor of the past week’s cherry blossom festival in town. I am not a huge fan of fruity coffee but we were both pleasantly pleased. We ordered 1/2 the syrup and it was perfect. The espresso was smooth and clean tasting and not bitter. I recommend the half-mile-off-the route stop.
Avoid this place at all cost. The store is filthy, it’s the dirtiest restroom I’ve ever seen the staff is incredibly unhelpful. I had to return my coffee because I couldn’t pick it up due to how scorching hot it was. After they remade it, it was very mediocre. You’d be better going to Waffle House or any other coffee establishment in the city. One of the worst coffee houses I’ve been to. I also find it suspicious that shortly after I posted this review, a 5-star review, with no information, was immediately posted.
Very kind staff, the best coffee I have ever had. This is my everyday coffee.
Incredible atmosphere here, with 5 star service. Took little time to get my drip coffee and cinnamon roll. Great place to work, study, or just hangout!
Z Beans Coffee is hands down the best in the business! From the quality of people, to their food and drink selection, it’s truly a one of a kind place!
