After traveling on an extented summer holiday, I was getting sick and tired of crappy coffee. No apologies -- I'm a coffee snob. But then to my delight and salvation, as invested a few exhausing days into Zion National Park, a local recommended The Mean Bean as the place to be if you worship the bean.

This place makes a good cup of coffee. ...

The coffee was quite tasty, and the people were freindly and full of good local information. Prices were cheap, coffee is Fair Trade and Organic, and brewed just right,

I will return whenever I am in town. I was in town for a few days, and I tried several places. The Mean Bean is the best coffee within 50+ miles of Zion National Park. Whether you want some good local info or just the best coffee in town, this is the place to go.

Traveled XC from the east coast for 7 weeks. Camped in Zion NP but had burritoes and panninis every morning.My partners were coffee drinkers and raved about the java. Bought a mug and T shirt to remember this unique place. Ryan and Ticia are great hosts. Will return there again on my next trip...you won't be disappointed.

Where can you go and be treated like you are an old friend. Well, The Mean Bean Coffe House in Springdale Utah. It was the best coffee house my wife and I have ever been in. Laid back, great drinks, and the employees were down to eart and very, very friendly. Out of our entire west experience we will always remember the Mean Bean. We purchased a ...

My wife and I were on our way to Mexico and needed a fix of good coffee. Having had some bad luck with coffee in towns that see a lot of visitors we were a bit nervous but the place looked cool and clearly leaned to the left politically so we decided to give it a shot. Joe is probably the coolest peddler of coffee I have ever met and I have met ...

The coffee at the Mean-Bean is good. Joe knows how to make a good Latte. He told me that he has taken a seminar from the coffee master -- the owner of Seattle's one and only Vivaces.

My wife and I have visted Zion NP and Springdale for serveral years now. We enjoy the canyoneering, hiking and mountain bike activities in the area so much ...

Excellent coffee, sincere and unique ambience. a special shop in a special place. Hope you're there for years to come Joe!

The hamlet on the edge of Zion National Park. Springdale, has (surprisingly) a good half dozen coffee shops and places with espresso (and thankfully, no Starbucks). This recently-remodeled hole-in-the-wall had the most choices, including organic coffees and soy milks, along with the rest of your coffee choices. The difference here is the people. ...

Come October my wife and I plan on doing some serious hiking in God's country (Zion) but before our days begin it's a must to start out our day with a cup of Mean Bean Java! Love the name and love the coffee!
