Fresh Local Coffee Shop

Such a wonderful spot! Just stopped in this morning and will definitely be back often. Almond danish was excellent and staff is so nice.

Congratulations to your opening and I wish you success in your business. A beautiful Coffee Shop with a wonderful cup of coffee. Thank you for a great experience.

I am so glad Merrick finally has a great, locally owned coffee shop! I had a vanilla iced latte with oat milk and it is obvious that the espresso is high quality. We also got a tea and they are individually bagged per order, which is wonderful. The owner and staff are also so nice. Looking forward to the future of this business in Merrick!

Dietary restrictions: Almond, oat, and soy milk available!

I’ve been to Hard Bean twice and I loved it. I had their cafe au lait and an iced lavender latte and I found it to be quite delicious. The staff is always so attentive and polite. The cafe also has a nice rustic aesthetic to it. It’s a definitely a nice place to get coffee.

Vegetarian options: Many of the pastries are vegetarian friendly like the cheese chive scone. They also have alternative milk like oat milk.

My latte was amazing and the service matched!

Been there numerous times so far. Tried several different coffees, and they were all great!

Not sure how long this place has been open because we’re not in Merrick a lot but it’s a gem for true coffee lovers. My mocha was anchored in the taste of REAL, sturdy espresso, and balanced with a fresh lemon bar. Sis had an Iced Hazelnut Latte and Banana muffin and said it was a thousand times better than the chains coffee places around here. Plus it appears to be family owned and who doesn’t love that? We’ll definitely be going back.

Love this coffee spot. My husband and I go to grab coffee or tea before jumping on the train. Super friendly. They have unique specials and flavors, and pastry options too.

Great coffee and hot meals. Amazing atmosphere and service!

Really nice little coffee and tea shop. It was very peaceful to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee here with one of my friends.

Best coffee shop in Long Island! Victor is the best!

Very friendly with great service and excellent coffee.

We all were so hungry and was so happy to find this great gem of a place! It has everything going for it, the food! The Atmosphere! and the staff ! It’s now our meeting place and our favorite place to go all the time. Everyone who tries this place feels the same and meet the nicest folks every time. Don’t go anywhere else! We love it.

Very nice interior and the employees were very kind, I got a hot chocolate while I was there and it was exactly the right temperature and I enjoyed it a whole lot. I made sure to leave a tip after I left

The hard bean cafe is really a great local place to get coffee and food. The atmosphere is friendly and the owner and staff are so passionate about their business and welcomes their customers with smiles. Definitely a great place!!

This place is the BEST. I try all types of coffee they have and each and every one of them tastes magnificent. The sweet treats are directly from Italy, and they are phenomenal.

Greeted immediately upon entering, coffee was fresh and hot. Bacon egg and cheese was as amazing. 10/10

A wonderful atmosphere accompanied by great service with a smile. Excellent place to spend some time and get work done!

Unique specialty drinks to try and plenty of space inside to sit and wait for your LIRR ride or just to sit and hang out. The owner is very friendly. Five stars

Their coffee is very much high quality and small GOOD collection of pastry for a local Cafe with a calm and peaceful atmosphere is matching in a perfect way.
I ordered 4 shot cappuccino, didn’t burn the coffee well done.
Thank you guys and hope your business grow fast because having a great potential based on the quality.🙏👍

We stopped by Hard Bean Coffee, which is spacious, clean and very comfortable, with a wide variety of menus including coffee, delicious sandwiches, and desserts etc……
The coffee tastes very good and we want to try different things, so we would definitely come back again!

Good CLEAN fun!! Stop by and enjoy the atmosphere. There’s No place in town like hard bean,

One of my favorite things is supporting small business and this is a great one. Very friendly, cozy atmosphere and most importantly great drinks.

Great coffee shop with good food and drinks and perfect atmosphere for a meet-up with friends or some laptop time! Monkey bread was delicious. Very reasonably priced options!

Now this is a coffee shop! So many options for food and drinks. Everything I’ve tried has been amazing and the owners are so sweet definitely worth stopping in!!

Amazing lattes and breakfast food!! Beautiful place to work or study.

Nice Owner and Good tasting coffee !!
Must Visit

I always get the chai latte and it’s one of the best I’ve ever had. It also has a wonderfully relaxing atmosphere that truly adds to the Cafe experience.
