“ Something New! An Affogato or cappuccino are my goto. Decided to try the strawberry cheesecake Frizada, which was absolutely amazing, a little too sweet for my taste, but I highly recommend it for those who prefer sweet coffee drinks. They had fresh pastries, a great selection of sandwiches and breakfast items. ”
“ Zbeans downtown location has a great atmosphere and friendly vibe. Good Prices and attention to detail service. Saying hello and a smile go along way with first time visitors and repeat ones too. My ginger peach tea was flavorful , perfect on a hot day. They had lots of baked goods, an all day quick bites menu as well as sandwiches and offer breakfast. Parking was accessable along cotton ave. We enjoyed meeting Shane and his family and hearing about the journey he is still on creating this business and the farmers he is working with. ”
“ Outstanding service and the coffee was fantastic. I had a cappuccino then took a black to go! Very good, I highly recommend. The two nice workers were very friendly and prompt. ”
“ Theres nothing like a coffee stop to recoup and refresh. Really enjoyed the iced coffee exceptionally smooth with a lightly robust taste. Beans are from Equador and roasted locally in Macon. Nice open space. plenty of seating and, of course, fantastic southern hospitality. We had a lovely conversation with ms kari the local artist that comes in to practice her art skills. Great spot to chill for a bit from a long drive. ”
“ Roomy coffee shop with chill vibe. Staff this morning seemed somewhat indifferent to the handful of customers they had, like they were just going through the motions. The food, however, is fantastic and the biscuit was one of the best Ive ever had! Coffee was smooth and delicious, and really neat to see their story posted on the wall. ”
“ Z Beans always has fun and interesting drinks and seasonal menus. They also have great cold brew and iced espresso options if you want to try and make your own drinks at home. This location is a great spot for meetings. ”
“ Its no surprise that every review Z Beans has is 5 stars, and I am certain not going to break the streak. What a fantastic spot. Clean and spacious with a lot of seating, even some bigger tables for groups. Excellent customer service quick, courteous and friendly. I had a 20oz. Cold Brew which was delicious and potent without the alcohol taste that some cold brews get. Highly recommend this little gem in Macon. ”
