The Bean — coffee, breakfast & a courtyard in Old Mandeville

Old Mandeville · since the start

Partnered with Flamjeaux Coffee Co. for all of our coffee beans. Soup from Stefani's stove. A back courtyard with string lights. Stop in for breakfast. Stay for the morning.

Our story

Tucked into a 19th-century cottage on Girod Street.

The Bean is what happens when a coffee shop is also a kitchen and a back porch. Stefani makes the soups herself. The coffee comes from Flamjeaux right down the road.

String lights, mismatched chairs, the back-porch hush. We open early, and the regulars have figured this out. Feel free to join them.

Old Mandeville.

Two blocks off the lakefront. Pull up to the curb — there's almost always a spot. Sit in front, sit in back, sit too long.
