“ I really, really like this coffeeshop and am so sad it's not closer to us. Everything about this place is great, from the seating areas to the shop staff. Their menu is huge and overwhelming at first, but everything we've tried from it is super tasty. They have seasonal drinks and plenty of vegetarian options. And their boba, omg. Their boba is well made and they have creative flavors that I haven't found anywhere else. A little pricey, but it's worth it for the quality of drinks you're getting and the amount of food you receive. ”
“ The best coffee shop in Burlington. Had the S’mores cold brew and my partner tried the Pistachio latte. The s’mores brew was so satisfying! Definitely a sweet treat with some caffeine. The pistachio latte had the strongest pistachio flavor I have ever had in a latte. The acai bowl and egg avocado toast were also top notch. The egg avocado toast came with a generous amount of fruit (and good fruit too!). The acai bowl had so much peanut butter and so much fruit. Such healthy and good meals. They also donate a portion of their coffee sales to dogs in need! Such a great small business. Go support them! I’ll definitely be back! ”
“ Review Date: August 14th, 2017 All I have to say is... half-pound cookies. No, I do have a bit more to say than that. I’ve been to Burlington a handful of times and since my last visit, this cozy of a place must’ve opened for business... and what a treat for Burlington it is. First off, they have half-pound cookies that are delicious. In the featured image, you can see a snickerdoodle cookie and it is as delicious as it looks. I ordered a iced caramel latte to go with it and together, it was a perfect combination. They had quite a few different flavors to choose from and the chocolate chip was a close second. As typical with more coffeehouses/cafes, they have a small food menu with some delicious-sounding eats. What the Beanhouse brings to the table is they also serve alcohol. Nothing hard or crazy but if you want an afternoon beer with some half-pound cookies, then this is the place for you. For the Beancounter being fairly new, the interior tied together great and it was bright and welcoming. The lady working the counter was also really friendly and chatted us up a bit as we did the awkward ‘first time here so we are looking around’ thing. If you are in the area, this is a great place to stop. Grab yourself a beer/coffee, some food and a half-pound cookie or two! ”
“ Never sure about a coffee shop that isn't just a purist "roast their own" kind of place, but Beancounter did NOT disappoint. Ordered a plain cap. Perfectly smooth coffee. No bitterness at all. Hospitality was excellent. Great atmosphere. Oh and the treats. I held strong but you gotta have willpower bc they look amazing and they are all homemade. Go try them out. You won't be disappointed. Also, their roaster is awesome. ”
“ I’ve been here multiple times while visiting family. It has always been a great place for brekkie and brunch. The food is excellent and the coffee is great too. Pet friendly place. ”
“ What an AMAZING coffee shop! The coffee and sweet treats are something we will think about on our LONG drive back to Toledo, Ohio. Love that this coffee shop gives back to DOGS through various organizations as well! Wish I could give this coffee shop TEN stars! If you are in West Burlington Iowa be sure to stop there! ”
“ The Beancounter has always been a favorite in our family. They have now catered two events for us... and I can only imagine there will be more in our future! :) It’s always been an excellent spot for a coffee, snack, adult beverage, or a delicious meal, or a sweet treat. They even love dogs as much as I do... and that’s A LOT. I could never say enough good things about this business, the way it’s ran, and the wonderful people who run it. You won’t be disappointed if you get the chance to stop in. Especially if you snag a banana bar ;) ”
“ Such a great place! The store is super cute and full of pictures of cute pups! They have a huge menu and everything looks so amazing! I got a sugar free brown sugar cinnamon iced latte....it was absolutely delicious! The baked goods looked wonderful but I'm not sure any of them were sugar free. Still....the place was amazing! The lady working the front was super friendly and helpful too! ”
