bean here coffee lab & studios

Bean Here Coffee Lab & Studios is on McKeever Road in Arcola. It's a coffee shop and roastery, and you'll see the roaster as you walk in. There are tables downstairs and a loft with couches upstairs, plus art and lots of natural light. There are outlets and wifi, and it's quiet. The loft hosts cake decorating classes, and the kitchen and event space are available to rent. They're also an official Rancilio dealer.

The Big Al, hot or iced, is the most popular. The Moo Cha Cho is a strong cold coffee. There's a Fall in a Cup latte, an iced chai, a lavender rose latte and a vanilla cappuccino brûlée. For food, there are Italian paninis.
