Quick info
About Red Bean Coffee
Set back in an 80s-style business park, Red Bean Coffee is a coffee shop on Gladstone House Lawnswood Business Park in Leeds, with bookable rooms and sockets running along the walls for anyone working from a laptop. Coffee leads the counter, joined by tea, hot chocolate and a matcha latte, and hot drinks can be made with soy, almond, oat or coconut milk. Freshly made bacon rolls and sausage butties run alongside sandwiches, crumpets, toasted teacakes and lunch items, with cakes such as Nutella brownie to finish. Sofas and plenty of seating fill the room, so it works for a business meeting as easily as a casual stop. There is no need to reserve a table, since orders are placed at the counter, though the meeting rooms can be booked. A step-free entrance suits visitors with mobility needs, and outdoor seats are there for drinking coffee in the open air. It opens Monday to Friday during the daytime.

Customer Review Summary
Coffee is the draw almost every reviewer returns to, described as really delicious, perfect, and by one self-described picky drinker the best in ages, served in a thick blue mug with a collar of creamy froth. Close behind is the breakfast food, with freshly made bacon baps and rolls, crumpets, toasted teacakes and sandwiches all singled out, and several mention the staff going the extra mile so nobody heads back to work hungry. Sweet items also come up, including a Nutella brownie, lemon drizzle cake and hot chocolate, alongside soy, almond, oat and coconut milk options one reviewer appreciated. The setting draws remarks for being quiet and roomy with sofas, wall sockets and bookable rooms for working, though its position in an eighties business park struck one visitor as odd at first. The clearest complaint comes from a reviewer whose matcha latte arrived bitter and unmixed, the powder sitting in lumps on top, and who found background music awkward for joining online meetings.

“This place is such a hidden gem. Nice food, coffee and a good price. And bookable rooms to work!”
- Mike
“Waiting for truck to be serviced. Certainly wasn’t going to the Golden Arches ! Found this place - warm welcome, good bacon roll and tea 👍👍”
- Yulin
“They have sockets on the walls if you want to come here with laptop. However the matcha latte I had was so bitter, it was clearly not mixed, all the powder sat at top in lumps. Nice place to work though, plenty of seats. Music playing in background so might not be great if you need to join online meetings and speak.”
- Tim Storey
