JJ Bean Coffee Roasters

Hit or miss on great coffee...but I do like it there

Love this coffee shop for school work but a little confused by the no Wifi policy during lunch hours... The last four weeks I've been here, the place has only been half full during this time, so not sure why they're turning it off. I understand they may want to dissuade students from camping all day long, but there are only power outlets along one small wall off to the side, as well as a private study room. The rest of the cafe, plus the outside patio, is usually always open to the remaining patrons, so it doesn't seem as though students can feasibly take over the whole place. I study at the JJ Bean on Main Street as well and they never turn off their Wifi, despite being packed all the time. Anyway, I'll likely still keep coming, just wanted to offer my two cents. For students who come often and spend their money here, the gesture would be appreciated. Plus, I'm sure the non-studious patrons would appreciate it as well. It's 2019, turn it back on! :D

Great food and service, however, I've had to go elsewhere on numerous occasions when I've gone for a breakfast wrap and a coffee. They seem to be sold out of all wraps by 9:30am every morning. May I suggest having more stock if its that popular.

Ok, there are a few things to be careful of when you go to JJ Bean. Don't eat the Very Berry or Chocolate Zucchini muffins. Don't eat the Butter Tarts. Don't eat any of their cookies. Probably avoid the Cinnamon buns, both with or without icing. Probably avoid the Jalapeno Cheddar muffins too. Oh and their is this crumble tart they have, don't eat that one either.

If you eat any of the listed items, whenever you see another JJ Bean, even later that same day... you will most likely end up going into get another one of whatever you ate. You might not even know how you got there, then all of a sudden you realize your in in front of a cashier with another food item in your hand while you are reaching for you wallet.

Also, if you are the person to take the last of any type of muffin, it is always polite and appropriatly Canadian to look to your left at the people in line behind you and apologize for robbing someone else of the yummy opportunity.

Im a regular here. Love it. Only complaint is no wifi at lunch hours. But thats cuz its too busy then, so cant really hold it against them.
