About The Bean Speciality Cafe
The Bean Speciality Cafe is a coffee shop in Coventry, set at Building 2M. A new guest espresso is offered each month, so the espresso choice changes alongside the regular drinks. For brewing by hand, the cafe makes pour overs, including a v60 and natural process pour overs. The core menu covers flat whites, cappuccinos, espresso and hot chocolate. Food includes sandwiches, vegan cakes, brownies and a maple and pecan slice. A downstairs seating area adds more tables beyond the main room. Dogs are welcome.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often praise the coffee, singling out a smooth flat white, a cappuccino, espresso and natural process pour overs, with one noting a monthly guest espresso and V60 brewing. Latte art and skilled baristas get repeated mentions, and one reviewer likes the fruity, slightly sour beans. Close behind are the cakes, including vegan ones, a brownie, sandwiches and hot chocolates, with the staff described as friendly and welcoming. Several say the atmosphere suits working, mentioning plenty of plug sockets, a relaxed vibe and a downstairs seating area that one reviewer found cool during a heatwave. The one real reservation is sweetness: a maple and pecan slice was too sweet for one reviewer, while another found the cakes pleasantly not very sweet. One reviewer came for a relaxing day out and ended up getting real work done.

“Wonderful and acommodating staff, delicious selection of food and drinks at very reasonable prices and there is also a student discount. Definitely one of my best experiences in Coventry. The basement is lovely and cool in this sweltering heatwave so was very welcome.”

“The cappuccino, brownie and everything else were excellent. However, nobody warned me how productive the atmosphere is. I came here intending to enjoy a relaxing day out, yet somehow ended up making real progress on my work. A dangerous place for procrastinators!”

“My favourite coffee shop! The coffee is always delicious and the baristas are super skilled. Love their sandwiches & cakes as well.”
- Harsharan Gill
“This was my first time trying what they have to offer and the coffee was phenomenal! It’s rare for me to drink coffee without sugar and enjoy it, but this flat white hit the spot, it was so smooth on the pallet! You really don’t feel like you’re in a city when you’re inside and that’s hard to achieve nowadays!The customer service is on point, again something really difficult to come across these days! I look forward to visiting more often and will definitely be trying out the selection of food.”
- Jess Whiteley
“My girlfriend and I come here almost every week and enjoy the best hot chocolates and other hot drinks. This is our favourite coffee shop that we go to. The atmosphere and staff are welcoming, with great music and a comfortable vibe. Thank you to the brilliant staff!”
