BEADS & BEANS OBX

Coffee is okay, the desserts are pretty good! Love the cinnamon bun. However, the customer service could use a little help. The crew is not very welcoming.

Got a vanilla latte and it was the best I've ever had. I loved the owners! They are so sweet and i adore the family business model. They have such a great selection of food and beverages and if they're anywhere near as good as my latte then I'll definitely be back. I love that they do everything Italian style. Delicious!

Cute shop with great coffee and pastries!

Best locals experience. Coffee. Atmosphere. People. Music was awesome. If you go anywhere this is a must!!!!! You’ll keep going back. - Marjorie, Bluefield Va.

Never give them money!
My family and i waited all week to go here. Should not have gotten our hopes up. Worst experience in a shop. Stuff was really cute but way overpriced. We were rushed out of the store and they did not enjoy us being there. The owner had a nasty attitude towards my family. We asked simple questions and was quickly shut down. I spent 5 dollars on a coffee that tasted like pond water.Would have loved to spend more money there but our family was not welcome. Do not go there!

Best coffee in OBX. Friendly service and really cool jewelry / souvenirs. We went every day on our vacation and they remembered our order.

Awesome cold brews! The people that own this little shop (wish I had gotten their names) have given the place a great atmosphere. Very nice and don't mind answering a million questions from a tourist. The guy who owns it (again wish I had gotten his name, older gentlemen with a rad beard) helped me pick out a very unique pair of earrings for my mom and she LOVES them. When we come back next year, this will definitely be our go-to coffee shop. Thanks guys!

The chocolate muffin was the most amazing baked good I have ever eaten in my life. My husband who is picky agreed!!!!!!!!

Caramel latte was outstanding. My son had never made his own Italian soda and had a blast and loved it. So good. The service was a mother daughter pair that was kind, thoughtful and inviting. My mom bought a bunch of beads and they had amazing selection. It was a great stop.

My family felt unwelcome, the energy was very hostile. We were kind to the employees but our simple questions were met with short and rude replies. The coffee wasn't good for the price. We felt pushed put of the store, and we won't be returning. All of their replies to bad reviews are just sorry excuses for their terrible attitudes. I recommend taking accountability for your actions rather than getting angry and gaslighting the very people that fund your business.

Had the Heath Bar cold macchiato and it was delicious! Each of my children had something different and enjoyed their as well. The shop had gorgeous jewellery and trinkets and was overall a lovely cozy little gift shop
