5 Stars: The Best Spot in Burbank!!! (by Mish O.)

Ever since they opened up their doors to Burbank residents I have been regular customer. I love everything about this place. Everyone is so nice in here. The place is well planned to accomodate even the pickiest customer. I personally dont like Starbucks/Coffee Bean look a like service and menues. This place is different. The atmosphere is great, food is organic, coffee is well chosen, and employees are nice, even very early in the morning( while I still grouchy).
They even have free Wi-Fi and no lines for coffee, which is rare for OTHER places.
Suggestion: Visit very early in the morning, grab your favorite coffee, sit outside, enjoy your coffee and read LA Times or Wall Street Journal. You will love it.

I like to grab a coffee here because it has all the personal touches that the big coffee places don't. A community magazine rack, fresh baked goods, they even put a little hear-shaped dusting of cinnamon on your cappuccino! Be sure and grab a frequent coffee card and your 9th one is free.

PROS: Homey touches
CONS:

3 Stars: A romantic coffee get-away! (by Joe R.)

If you're not into bright fluorescent lights and burned, bitter-tasting coffee, then Romancing The Bean might just be for you. Located on Magnolia Blvd. in the vintage store-section of town, this place has quite simply the prettiest designs in the area. With many drink and snack options, you can romance your way to a well-deserved, dietary splurge! One caveat, though, the service is not up to par with other, similarly-sized venues.

PROS: dark, comfortable seating arrangement
CONS: tiny place, short hours, service uneven

4 Stars: Good Tea Place (by Joy L.)

Romancing the Bean is a good tea shop. It is located at Magnolia Blvd., in Burbank. I like the way the place is set up; very cozy. The service is friendly.
As I've walked in, there are cushioned seats with old-fashioned tables. There is a magazine stand and community flyers as well.
