Stepping into this place made my day! Have been meaning to check it out for a while and was finally in the area. I treated myself for a latte and the Gobble Gobble sandwich... and what a treat it was! My latte was smooth and my sandwich made with plentiful, excellent ingredients. Easily one of my top 10 sandwiches of all times! My baby became jealous too so the staff were kind enough to hand her some apple to munch on so I could eat my sandwich in peace :)
In the middle of the day the cafe isn't the coziest but the friendly service makes up for it. I can't wait to come back with friends, although there is only one table that seats more than two due to the narrow floor space they have in use. Look for this place, as it unfortunately blends in too well with the building!!
Oh wow oh wow oh wow oh wow!! I simply cannot think of enough superlatives which would suffice in describing this beyond amazing place!!!!!!! I can't sleep its so amazing!!! oh wow oh wow oh wow oh wow!!!
Im a big fan
One of the tastiest sandwiches I’ve had in Halifax, hands down. Plus for what everyone else charges for just the sandwich, you get chips and coleslaw (also tasty), and a little pickle. 100% recommend.
Stopped in for a quick sandwich and a cup of tea. What a great vibe, music is awesome, the food tastes delicious and the prices are spot on(I appreciate taxes in prices). I’m disappointed I only found this place a few months before I move, but I’ll definitely be back before I go!
Spicy Peanut grilled sandwich was literally the best sandwich I have ever eaten. And I eat a LOT of sandwiches. Great vibe with awesome upbeat old school hip hop playing and even better beer on tap. 10/10 could not recommend more!!
It’s a wonderful cold brew coffee! I’ve missed so much and it was served in a wine glass~^^
It makes you feel like you are drinking a gourmet glass of stout!
Delicious food. Nice folks. Funky atmosphere. Small place so not good for groups.
Amazing sandwiches. 10/10
Good coffee and great food. The atmosphere was relaxed with a nice shaded back patio. I ordered the bagel sandwich with pulled pork and really enjoyed it. The service was slow as there was only one person working and she had to make several sandwiches.
Stopped in for some breakfast and was happy that we did. Good coffee and tasty menu items at this hip little spot! The menu has great options but isn't huge, which is nice sometimes. We liked the seating area in the back, enclosed patio, and they were playing great music!
Long time patron, first time reviewer!
The other bean is a must stop place for a quality sammie. Most of the time I just ask Steve for a sandwich and he creates a masterpiece, to be honest I have no idea what options are on the menu because I trust him to make something tasty!
Most recently I called in an order and picked it up about 15 minutes later, no sweat and too easy. I can always count on this place to have a selection of delicious beer on tap if I want to enjoy one on the front or back patio.
Will be back again and again!
This place is one of the cities best kept secrets! Geared towards the lunch crowd, it's a very welcoming, locally owned and operated Oasis nestled right in the heart of the city on Quinpool road. They always have the friendliest staff, great coffee Tea and other delicious beverage options (I'm partial to the "Shot in the Dark") and a great selection of popular favourites of local beer on tap! The Other Bean also has some of the best sandwiches going in Halifax right now, with a great selection of cold and grilled options always incredibly fresh, healthy, hearty and sourced from local providers of fine foods, many of which can be found at the Halifax Farmer's Market. If you've not been here yet, then I'm afraid you've been missing out! Drop in sometime, you won't be disappointed!
