    A nice little brew shop in Ballina. Had a latte followed by a piccolo. The coffee here is quite acidic, especially with the piccolo. Milk was nice and smooth. I'll come back and try and cakes in the display.

    Found this place through bean hunter. Awesome place great food, service and most importantly coffee. There was a nice atmosphere and table service straight away. It's always a worry getting coffee in a small town but this place is worth the visit.

    A little cafe with a big heart! Specially selected, blended and roasted beans makes for an authentic cup brewed by those who know what they are doing and obviously love it. Bean In Love blend is spot on for my palate. And the spanakopita was pretty awesome as well.

The atmosphere and friendly service was excellent without being pretentious (I enjoy a cafe that makes you feel like a welcome friend) ... the home ground beans were excellent... Read more

    Went in here on a whim and was massively impressed. For a country town, they are fantastic. I tried a few things over the couple of days I was in town, and was impressed with all. Banana bread was particularly special in food, and their Lattes were as good as I've had in many big city cafes. They... Read more

    Bean Bank FTW! Fantastic latte. Finally a place to get a decent coffee in Ballina. And they roast their own beans. Give the Sparkling Long Black a go.

    I have to say that the bean bank is really cool. The staff were really friendly, the funky atmosphere is great (like a city cafe), good tunes playing, nice food on display, and best of all the coffee was awesome. They roast their own coffee called "bean in love" and it is one of the better coffees... Read more

    This little cafe in river street tucked in next to the bank serves Merlo espresso blend and a variety of home cooked cakes. The service Is friendly and coffee is the best you can get in this small town. They also sell and grind coffee beans
