    This place is the perfect addition to the downtown Waterloo district. I have never been disappointed by the food , drinks, or service. Everything has always been above par. Love this place.

    I have dined here often and the food and service at this little gem of an establishment are consistently great!

    My girlfriend and I were looking for somewhere to have breakfast this morning and she mentioned that a new cafe had been opened in downtown Waterloo. I was game but she said she had driven past it before and didn't stop in because it looked like it only served coffee, muffins and bagels. This was so not the case! We were pleasantly surprised at what this little oasis in the middle of a cow town had to offer. As we entered I noticed it was well lit and obviously a clean eatery. The decor and colors were comparable to a chain coffee house such as STL Bread Co or Starbucks. It was very small and very crowded, so I suggest getting there early, expect a short wait, or be prepared to take it to go. In all fairness it could have just been the time of day we went and the fact it was a Saturday. I will definitely be revisiting the Bean Tree Cafe and will report if the crowd is a fading trend or if this is just the place to be on Saturday morning in Waterloo IL. There are two areas to sit. One in a traditional cafe setting and the other with a traditional sit down restaurant. The theme remains the same no matter which side you sit. We were lucky and found the only open table was a two seat table with a window view. The menu was simple and completely encompassed on a two sided laminated page. It contained all of your expected classics but also included a few unexpected twists like the Portabella Omelet and Fruit and Maple French Toast. YUM! You can check out their full menu here beantreecafe.net . My Girlfriend who will so predictably order biscuits and gravy opted for the Portabella Mushroom Omelet, while I stuck with a more common selection of eggs over easy and hash browns. Real hash browns! I hate the silly excuse of hash browns most places give you called American Fries. The French had them right the first time and there is no reason to reinvent the wheel. The food was cooked to perfection and being a coffee freak, I have to comment that I will only be buying my morning Joe from Bean Tree Cafe. I am pleasantly pleased with my experience at the Bean Tree Cafe. Two complete meals and drinks for under 20 bucks. You just can't beat that. I think we will have a long history together. I can't wait for lunch now. Highly recommend.

    Went here with a group of friends for lunch. The place is very cute with a very homely and comfortable atmosphere. Ordered the Bean Tree Grilled Cheese...ohhhh emmm geeee...soooo delicious! The combination of cheeses, pesto, mushroom, and tomato was perfection. Homemade chips were seasoned very well! Wish they were a tad bit crispier but for the most part, they were yummy! My friends ordered pancakes, the house omelet, and the skillet and they enjoyed all of the above. No complaints. Service was fantastic! The server was friendly, attentive, and she got us everything we asked for! We were a somewhat loud and needy bunch, haha. Would definitely go back if I am in the area again!

    Wonderful little local cafe that my parents took me to before we went to the Christmas tree farm nearby. Between 5 of us, we all had something different. I got the BLT, which was delicious and perfectly sized. My niece got the regular French toast, which she shared with me and was also very good. The owners were super friendly and were talking to all the tables, welcoming everyone to the restaurant.

    This was the first time I ordered a cup of coffee to go. I asked if they had a coffee of the day, the girl looked at me and replied...Peru..... I looked back and said Excuse me. She again repeated Peru, I looked at her and replied What does that mean? She finally informed that the coffee of the day was called Peru. Yep, this conversation had no where to go by up. I asked if I could sample, she poured some in a mug and I added my cream and sweetener. I liked that taste, so I asked for a cup to go. This is where is gets even better. She filled the cup up and put on the lid, after she had just seen me doctor up my coffee. It was a very unpleasant experience and it would take a long time for me to go back.

    Good solid breakfast food that is always a fun environment for me and my kids. I always appreciate when the staff makes you feel special for visiting their restaurant. Great place to go on a Saturday or Sunday morning.

    Today was my first time at bean tree. We checked out their website and the food looked and sounded phenomenal. We had the spinach and feta omelette, potato pancakes and the works (the usual little bit of everything). Everything was amazing. Only thing I could critique would have been the gravy, on the biscuits and gravy, it was a pretty bland. It did have excellent consistency though. When I return I will definitely try the Hawaiian, stuffed French toast with what appears to be all kinds of goodness. We will certainly return!!!

    We heard about this place from a friend and decided to check it out. They serve breakfast all day so that's a big plus. The service was outstanding, the place was packed and our waiter was on the ball the whole time. I got a regular latte and my girlfriend got a marshmallow toast mocha latte, both we're outstanding. The Hawaiian French toast was awesome, light and fluffy and the coconut surprise was not overly sweet, which I liked a lot. My girlfriend got an omelette and the portion size was huge, which was great so we shared our meals. Everything was great, I'll be back and will recommend this place to others.

    Ordered the pick two: turkey bacon sandwich, Cesar salad and fries. Sandwich was lacking turkey & had melted butter spread on the bread (suppose to be toasted). Server was really sweet but was doing two peoples jobs, doubling as a busboy, so it took a bit to get the check. Caramel mocha was very good. I'll go back to try the breakfast options soon.

    The Bean Tree Café is a good place to grab breakfast, brunch, or lunch. The food is good, but could be better. That being said I don't think this place is trying to be a five star restaurant, they just want to put out good food, and I think they are doing that. I had the stuffed Hawaiian French Toast and that was good, the hashbrowns were nothing special. The place is very clean and well decorated. It's definitely worth a visit if you are in the Waterloo area.
