The Bean Cafe Restaurant-Bar

Ate here on a road trip and was our favorite restaurant of the trip! Delicious albondigas soup and good salads. Prices very reasonable. Waitress was very nice!

The menu is a mix of American and Mexican and have had both on two visits. The Mexican food is classic and very good. On my last visit, I had the Fideo soup and the spinach salad with grilled salmon. The salmon was grilled perfectly with an excellent crispy finish. Service is good and the atmosphere is clean, spacious, bright. This will be my stop every time I visit Big Bend Ranch State Park.

Cute place. Solid food. Hiking hunger struck and this place filled us up. One waitress running around, killed it. Attentive to every table. Food was fast and good. Horchata was amazing. Spacious and clean with a bar. What more do you need.

We came to presidio and were excited to try the bean, we’d heard so many good things about it. Our initial impression was very positive, we seated ourselves and were promptly given a bowl of tortilla chips and spicy salsa which was great. My husband had a margarita which he very much enjoyed (very limey and not syrupy) and I had an Arnold Palmer that was massive and not too sweet. My Reuben would have been good but they forgot the sauerkraut and the dressing. Mikes nachos were just ok. He also ordered a horchata which they made fresh, it was delicious but enormous! The price was very reasonable, somewhere around $35 for all that. The service was very good, our waitress Brenda was very attentive. The building was in good condition, well lit, welcoming and most importantly immaculate. Everything was spotless including in the restroom. The acoustics were good, it wasn’t too loud in there which is always nice.
