I visited books and beans yesterday for lunch and u have to say what a pleasant down to earth quirky place this is. I found all the staff very friendly indeed. Small touches like having bottled water prepared for customers to help themselves really count in my opinion. In a world of chain coffee shops and pretentious staff it was nice to just visit somewhere, be treated with an authentic smile and welcome. I ordered the books and beans club sandwich (meat version) and it did not disappoint. Excellent portions with a side salad (which perhaps could have done with a dressing or balsamic) and a really nice coffee. Upstairs is another seating area where this place really comes to life in my opinion. All the second hand books for sale and the hidden area round the back. Just brilliant. The owners must be very proud of this little jewel.
The staff are a delight - attentive and friendly. The mushroom soup knocked me for six; SO good. My sandwich ingredients were fresh. Im glad I stopped by. Im going to have a cake now :-)
A lovely bookstore with a nice coffee shop, excellent drinks and delicious food. The staff is very friendly and always supportive. I love being surrounded by books and those cosy atmosphere. You can take a book to read while you enjoy your drink or you can borrow one from their bookshelves. If you like the book, you just pay for it at the counter and its yours. I love their second-hand book shop because you can get secondhand books for very little money. I've already picked up so many treasures from here.
Best coffee and sandwiches in Aberdeen and the soup is pretty awesome too. Staff are friendly and welcoming and certainly know their regulars. Doubles as a second hand book shop and I know I've picked up a few treasures from here over the years.
They have a good selection of light lunches. Surprisingly popular since they ran out of the soup of the day! (Mushroom) the staff was really polite and friendly and the overall atmosphere of this place is super cozy.
