Mean Bean is amazing.  We got a pound of Black magic and love it.  They have an endless list of flavors and is really unique.  Had a great visit with the owner and loved just hanging out in there...The smell of roasting beans was great!  Can’t wait to return to Galena someday....Mean Bean will be our first morning stop!

The coffee is terrible. I don't know what beans they roast, but they are very bottom shelf. I guess you wouldn't use high end beans when you plan on soaking them in "flavored" ointment so that makes sense. And the flavors? They are highly concentrated little ointment bottles where they squeeze drops onto the beans in the bag and then shake it all around. Kind like chicken shake n' bake. But with coffee beans. I bought 3 little bags, reasonably priced, but all taste kinda the same - over-roasted (closer to dark than medium), over-the-top bitter, and oh so very acidic. If that's how you like your coffee, then this is the place for you. Customer service was top notch though, very friendly, and polite.

Shop is cute (it's in downtown Galena after all) and in speaking with the barista she seemed attentive and knowledgeable. They have their roasting equipment set up in the front store, with one small table with two stools for sitting. I asked about the sourcing of their coffee and she said it was all fair trade, organic from a large spread of coffee producing countries. They put triples into their drinks (~90ml of espresso) and for the size I'd expect only a double. Price wasn't outrageous either.

Wish I lived closer.. my wallet is thankful I don't live closer.. I could spend a ton of money here.

Good variety of flavors, very busy. Can buy coffee beans that they grind or leave whole bean, or just order a hot or iced coffee to drink.
