Leaves 'n Beans Coffee

Their best location yet! Great service. Wonderful coffee. They made the most perfectly weighted cappuccino! I was impressed. Well done.

Cool little spot with tons of different options for food and drink. A lot of seating options as well. Service was good the only downfall would be the interior could use a refresh and a more updated coffee shop feel.

Stopped in on my way back to Indiana. LOVE that they have coffee syrups for sale and whole bean coffee from all over and many options. Didn't eat here but had a latte and it was great.

A really nice local coffee shop with a lot of good food and drink options. The latte I had was made just the way I like it and I could not have been happier. The staff working there were courteous and helpful. The restroom was clean. I would be interested in trying some of the food there next time as it all looked really good.

I love this place! They are perfectly consistent on the wonderful flavor and the kindness and quickness of the staff. I started treating myself at the Morton store regularly during the holidays and will continue from now on. Don’t bother going anywhere else in Morton or Peoria. Try the Myan. It’s outstanding!

The coffee and lattes I've gotten there are great! But the bag of coffee I bought to make at home was not. It tasted like it wasn't completely roasted. They let me exchange it, which was awesome, but the second bag tasted the same, so we left it alone. No point in exchanging it again. Maybe it's supposed to taste that way?
We got creme brulee, but it has zero creme brulee flavor; it actually has almost no coffee taste. It's very weak. And no, it's not our machine as other coffee we make taste normal.
So 3 stars for great customer service and in-house drinks. Just wish the bags of coffee tasted good too.

Love love love this place. There food is always home made and just delicious! Best vanilla chai tea in the universe! Customer Service is always top notch! You should definitely check them out!!!

Leaves ‘n Beans, round three!

At long last, I have finally visited the third and final Leaves ‘n Beans. Does it contain the same feel as the Peoria Heights location? How about the same menu and good tasting coffee? Yes and no. (Should you be interested in the 3rd and closed location, you can read about it here.)

Upon arriving, I noticed the feel and look of the place was of one that wasn’t like the Peoria Heights location. This had more of a restaurant/basic feeling to it. There were some sparse autumn decorations on the tables and furniture. My friend sat on a couch and I sunk deep in to this cozy red chair. The area where they had products for sale had a nice look to it and everything looked well organized. I was looking at a coffee cup with their logo on it and was surprised at the price tag. $7.99 for a local coffeehouse cup is really cheap compared to other places I’ve been.

With it nearing fall, I decided to look over their seasonal menu. Being a sucker for lattes, I decided to get the Maple Vanilla one. I took a seat in the aforementioned red chair and instantly felt relaxed. Before I could settle in too deep, the barista was setting my drink down in front of me.

As my friend and I conversed, I took small sips to savor the latte as I knew we would be there for awhile. The blend of vanilla and maple was decent, if a bit lacking on the maple side until the very end, when it was all maple. I am not sure what my friend ordered as she was already there and had her drink by the time I walked in the door… plus I forgot to ask.

During the 2 hours we were there, the barista/cashier never once stopped to ask if we needed anything. I thought that was a bit odd, as almost every other coffeehouse (and most places that serve food/drinks) will check in and make sure you are doing okay or if you need anything. Luckily, we didn’t need anything but it still struck me as odd.

Should you need to grab a coffee while on the go, they have a convenient drive thru. We witnessed quite a few people utilize that service. If you decide to go in, there is a public parking lot to the right of the building.

If I had to recommend which of the two remaining places to visit, I would highly suggest the one in Peoria Heights. It just has this unique feel and atmosphere that this location is lacking, but you have to remember that one is in a house and this one is in a business location. If you don’t need or care about any of that, you can’t go wrong with either place for that burst of caffeine. Some day, I will try the food and update the blogs accordingly.

Stay caffeinated!

I'm in Morton a couple of times a year on business. Both my wife and I love stopping at Leaves N' Bean - the coffee is great and the service is wonderful!

Always a pleasure to do business at Leaves n Beans Morton. The employees are top notch, so friendly and accommodating. Their sugar free options are delicious! I also love their espresso beans, which they happily grind.
