    Disgusting. Burned, bitter, and watery. Not fit to be called a doppio.

    Amongst the restaurants of Surf Parade is 3 Beans. It's a great little cafe to almost escape to. Different from the other big places along that strip, coffee is the main staple here. Merlo is on offer and they do a good job. My milk was a little too warm for me but nothing a little wait can't fix.

    A saviour for a late night / early morning espresso. My coffees are always sans milk so can't speak for the latte crowd but I've always received a great coffee. Service can be a little pretentious (found that on the day crew) but when it's just you and them, really super early in the morning as a... Read more

    Very disappointing. I am a real fan of merlo coffee with that punchy but smooth, cleamyness on the toung but last night the coffee was shocking. Even worse when you are charged $5 for a 12oz. Used to be a great place and has the potential but i won't be back until i start seeing some good reviews again.

    Coffee was just that....... coffee. On par with McDonald's really. No real taste and a bit too hot. Trying for hip but completely misses the mark. Music way too loud and staff more interested in singing along to their tunes than making great coffee. Would have to be desperate to return here.

    Got to pay respect to 3 beans for being one of the first but like little beans and piccolo it hasn't been the same since Simon Gloftis (Hellenika) left the helm. They are consistent but they are of the old school coffee making ilk that tends to be big brand coffee that lacks the complexities,... Read more

    Coffee was hot but, taste was average. Froth to coffee ratio was to high. Food was also dissappointing.

    Terrible coffee waited 15 min for a coffee and I was the only one there.
    Staff to busy talking and standing around eating instead of serving there customers as few have just walked out without being served.
    Must say this place has gone done hill since new owners took over last year.Read more

    A nice place to enjoy a pleasant coffee after a night of wining and dining with hubby in Broadbeach. It is much better than a restaurant coffee.

    Disappointed ...

    I've been going to 3Beans for almost 10 years and they're really starting to slip

    If your looking for consistent coffee this is now not the place to go. However if you need an after-hours caffeine hit then 7/11 is no competition

    Every time i am in Broadbeach this place is a must, being open 24hours means any time is a good time for a coffee. But starting the day sitting outside watching the people go by and drinking quality Merlo coffee and fantastic breakfast doesn'g get any better.

    AMAZING coffee! I hadn't been there before today, but now it will become my regular. Staff were really lovely and friendly and the coffee was the best i've had in a long time. Cakes were yummy too! Great spot to "people watch" Love it!

    Great coffee, excellent service! Staff are always super friendly and fun. I've been going to 3 Beans for years and it has always been my favourite coffee shop. The 2 older girls, the tall blonde and the night chick with the tatts make really good coffee :)

    Funky atmosphere, Staff are usually pretty friendly. Coffee is usually good but the last couple times ive been in its been a bit hit and miss. One of the best in Broadbeach for sure.

    Was here on my holiday from melbourne and this cafe reminded me of all the cafes from home. Cute, funky, and great atmosphere. I mostly went there during the morning and the coffee was always great, also had great customer service and they remembered me everytime. Also went there occasionally at... Read more

    Great owners, young and friendly. Coffee is consistently good. Have heard that breakfast is being introduced soon so looking forward to trying out new menu.

    Favorite coffee place to hang out with friends. Great coffee, chilled and casual atmosphere. Not for anyone wanting something quiet or sophisticated. But this is just the way some of us like it. ;)

    What horrible coffee. This place used to be good for a decent cup of coffee. I didn\'t watch the person making the coffee but it definately was not right!

    I ordered a flat white. Temperature was luke warm and the coffee was over extracted. The coffee tasted bitter and unpleasant. I... Read more
