I met a friend at Leaves n Beans Coffee for the first time last weekend. It's really cute on the outside and looks like a house.
Parking is best out front or on the side of the building. The back is reserved mostly for employees. You walk up the stairs and through the front door and you immediately walk into this cozy comfortable coffee shop! I loved the decor and all the different seating, tables, and decorations on the walls! I even loved the door with all of the handwritten flavors and coffees that they had available! There's so many different things that you can purchase here including your own bag of coffee that you can take home with you! It smells amazing in there!
We both ordered a iced/ blended coffee, mine was cookies and cream, grabbed a cookie and found ourselves a table. We decided to sit at the table in the front of the building so we could look out the front window. There's definitely plenty of seating around inside and outside. I heard there is a couch with a bunch of different chairs downstairs and even a ton of books avaliable but I haven't got a chance to go down there yet. Next time I go I'll check it out!
They called our names shortly after to come and get our coffees. When you grab your coffee there's this little nook in the bottom right corner where you can get your straw and any additional things that you would need for your drink.
We went back and sat down and chatted for a bit. This is such a cute coffee house, felt like home! It's great place to meet up with a friend to catch up! I'm looking forward to returning and trying something new!

Wonderful local coffee shop set in an older building with seating upstairs, downstairs, and outside.

I really love this place however, recently I have felt that the workers have become really uninviting once 1 pm hits. I understand this place closes at 2 pm, but when there are paying customers this behavior seems rude. Once a worker came to tell me that they were closing in an hour, but maybe it would be better to let us know at 1:30. There was another time at 1 pm a worker started sweeping and was just staring at me while she was fixing the broom then proceeded to sweep right next to my feet. I completely understand sweeping the area nearby because there weren't any customers but she could've waited to sweep my area until I left (I left at 1:30 so there was plenty of time). I get that workers want to leave work early but if the hours are 7 to 2 then customers should feel welcomed to come at any time within the hours.

Sitting on the front porch with an apple vanilla Chai latte is happiness. The staff here are so nice and the seasonal drinks always make it worth the trip. Im also a fan of the salads, wraps, and paninis. Parking can be hard to find in the heights but this place is always worth it.

Great spot for a sandwich/wrap and a coffee or tea. This place has some great menu options. It’s close to some beautiful hiking and walking spots - so it’s an easy choice if your walking grandview or hiking forest park. It can be busy , but the service is efficient and friendly
