Way of Bean - coffee club - Oracle, Arizona

Michelle

Cool, little place to chill and sip coffee. Good food!

Wouldn't it be great if every small town had a fabulous local venue that was full of friends, nice food, and excellent coffee and tea? Well Oracle has been waiting for what seems like centuries for just that and now can enjoy it in this creative and peaceful place.

Locals all remember when this structure housed Oracle's "Middle Circle K" and how all sorts of folks gassed up their cars and trucks here and bought their winning (!) lottery tickets, too. Now, in a total makeover, the owner Kristina and her talented crew have rescued Oracle and made this building the coffee club of dreams. Hey, it's a "way of being".....

Open only one week, the first breakfast day was on Saturday, Dec.17.2022, and served as an experiment for what is to come. I met well over a dozen of my local friends this day and had an excellent open-face, avocado and fried egg sandwich that was most tasty and satisfying. The farm-fresh local bacon and sausage on the side made it the perfect breakfast as well.

The future is bright at the Bean: a raised platform in the southwest corner of the giant main room will one day soon begin hosting live music and maybe a dance (?). It also seem likely that groups will want to meet here and would be able to sequester half the room for a get-together, perhaps educational, familial, or for business.

The Bean will be famous in the very near future for giving Oracle another special place to hang out and enjoy life. I am so grateful and if you wander by on American Avenue, make sure to have a look and a tasty espresso or two. You'll be back quicker than you think.

EDIT: Nov.13.2023
The new menu for Saturday and Sunday breakfast is in full force and the happiness quotient has risen 1008%!!

Great cafe! Their fancy chai tea was delicious—I could see the cardamom pods in the basket. They had 2 vegan food items, which was a bagel with avocado, and berry compote, and non-dairy milks. They had a couple of gluten-free pastries and gluten-free dishes. I really liked the artsy vibe, warm ambiance l, and friendly staff. They’re also dog friendly!

We got an ice rooibos peach tea and rose Italian soda, both of which were excellent. Great service and atmosphere. A record player and large vinyl collection will bring us back along with a good looking cafe menu.

This is a great place to have a wonderful coffee or tea drink and enjoy delicious locally baked goodies. They have breakfast too and I throughtly enjoyed a nuttella waffle with strawberries and whipped cream. Great atmosphere inside to enjoy a conversation.

Had the "pleasure" of meeting their Tea Master (lol) Cory Daniel aka The Phoenix Enigma works here. Don't know that name? Most sane people don't. Google it. If you like reading and watching videos about how school shootings are faked, election stealing, and other goodies, then stop in and talk to Cory!
