The Mean Bean Story

We started as a retail roastery in Galena, Illinois in 2010 with one roaster and a wall of flavors that kept growing. People came for one bag and left with five.

These days we roast on the family farm in Sheffield, Illinois. Same wall of flavors, more room to work, and every single bag is still roasted to order after you buy it.

People Talk

About three years ago I discovered Mean Bean. I was not a big coffee drinker until I tried the Chocolate Caramel Kiss. Oh my goodness. I was sold.

Mark Klecka

I bought some Maple Bacon ground decaf and it is awesome. Very friendly, love the samples. Definitely a return visit.

Michelle Brown

Over 5 million flavor combinations. All roasted to order. Smells divine. Sumatran, Ethiopian and Panama, all extremely bold and beautiful.
