Want a cup of coffee? A latte? A mocha? A breve? Want it consistently delicious and always with a smile? Then you must try The Human Bean Drive Thru off of Fort Apache and West Hacienda.
Though their Snowy Mocha is too sweet for me, every other drink I’ve had has been delicious: the vanilla mocha is smooth and velvety — the Mexi Mocha holds the right amount of spice and sweet to make this revved up mocha a welcomed change to the every day — the Green Tea Smoothie is as refreshing as a meadow spring — and the low carb Vanilla Mocha Granita is so smooth it tastes like a milkshake. Best of all, each drink, frozen or hot, eight ounces or twenty, with whip or without, comes topped with a delicious marble chocolate espresso bean — the perfect beginning to the coffee experience.
This location has two drive up windows and a walk up counter. The baristas are consistently friendly whether they have remembered me or not, and the drinks, regardless my order, have been crafted to perfection. Their baked goods are passable, coming from Seattle’s Favorite Gourmet Cookies & Dessert Co., but I would stick to the coffee. Indeed, their farm friendly direct beans make trying their brew a must. If you are within ten miles of a Human Bean, you will be rewarded with a delightful cup of coffee made by one human being for another. Enjoy.
