When I saw the news of a new coffee shop less than 5 minutes away from my home, I get pretty ecstatic. And those of you that know me already know I love the family-owned and operated coffeehouses. This takes me on a trip to the heart of Citrus Heights where I had the opportunity in trying out "BeanHeads Coffee". Located directly on San Juan Ave. and less than 1/4 mile from nearby Greenback Lane, this place opened their doors in August 2021. This is actually their 2nd location to open (as their first location opened in July 2021) in the Natomas area off of Northgate Blvd. & Del Paso Rd. I came here for the first time during the morning of Saturday 10/2/2021 at around 9:35am. Parking is easily accessible which is a plus on the days when heavier traffic occurs in the morning hours. When I first walked into the place, it is quite spacious but also quite bland. I'm not one that judges a business on how it looks on the inside but there was no artwork, no style, and just had plain walls. The ceiling was kind of cool with a nice square pattern but overall, this place needs a good interior designer to dress it up a little bit. Not to mention there were very basic tables with plastic chairs inside of the business. Now that I got that off my chest, this places does offer a respectable amount of coffee beverages. You will find your basic hot and iced coffees, teas, espressos, lattes, mochas, and blended coffee & fruit smoothies. They also have a small food selection including breakfast paninis, burritos, bagels, & croissants. They also carry a nice assortment of pastries including bear claws, muffins, loaf cakes, and cookies. During my visit, I went with a large "Iced Vanilla Latte" priced at around $4.50. Not a bad deal and less than other coffeehouses. Since there was only one customer ahead of me, my drink is ready in just a couple of minutes. Overall, I could definitely taste the espresso as well as a good portion of the vanilla. This was on the sweeter side but I enjoyed the drink from start to finish. All in all, the service, prices, and taste was all above average. I just think this place was be way better if it had more pizzazz to it by minor touch-ups to its interior. With that said and done, I am going to give the Citrus Heights "BeanHeads Coffee" an above average four stars.
Good coffee. Just wish they were open when they say they are.
I found this coffee spot by searching here on google maps and decided to take a chance. When I first pulled up it wasn’t what I expected the parking lot was completely empty and it looked closed but I noticed that that open sign was on. The person that helped me was very friendly. I was surprised that they didn’t have low fat milk for my caramel macchiato. The drink was just ok, kinda bland with not much flavor..I also tried an egg potato and cheese burrito which was OK however it was extremely dry. The store was still going through renovations the decor was pretty sparse
WHEN IS THIS PLACE EVER OPEN!? I have driven there multiple times because it says open online and when I get there it’s closed?
Great menu. We got breakfast croissant sandwiches, a Matcha latte and a Strawberry freeze. The coffee items looked tasty and creative too. Service was friendly and quick but we were the only customers here for the duration of our stay and meal so I'm not sure how they'd do in a rush. Kid-friendliness: They have smoothies and freezes on the menu that would be great for kids.
I was very excited for this to open since it’s very close to my house. I love local coffee shops. From the few times I’ve gone, their drinks are pretty good and staff is friendly but I have two issues: I can only drink decaf and they hardly ever have any when I go. And two, they’re closed a lot! And it’s not like they post it on social media or Google. Are they ever open anymore? Are they out of business? Who knows! If they improve their communication, open hours and decaf options, I’d be a regular!
I ordered the honey lavender latte and prosciutto croissant. AMAZING. I will definitely be coming back. I love the flavors they combine here.
