The Good Bean in Corby - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

I dropped into The Good Bean today for a coffee and a slice of cake whilst passing some time in Corby. It is a modern, fresh and clean coffee shop / cafe with tables and chairs and easy sofa's. There was a nice selection of homemade cakes (I had the Victoria Sandwich and it was excellent) and the mug of coffee was great too. Prices were very reasonable with my very generous slice of cake and latte costing just £4.80 to eat in... Take Away is even cheaper. The service was great and the ambiance relaxed. If I had one small piece of constructive feedback it would be to get customer WiFi. I had some work to do while I waited and enjoyed my cake and it would have been great if I could have got online.

There really is nothing not to like about The Good Bean. Let’s start with the coffee...appreciating that it’s a subjective topic but so are reviews in general, but their coffee and ability to use their coffee machine properly means you get quality, tasty, consistent coffee every time. Since they re-opened post lockdown, they’ve got a simple but effective one-way system that allows you to queue past the variety of sandwiches, toasties, salads and cold drinks. Everything is made fresh each day and to order if they’ve run-out and it’s a pleasure to eat a non pre-packed sandwich let me tell you! Two more things to share...their cakes are a problem, but only in the sense that they’re all homemade and ridiculously moorish. The last point is that they really could charge more as their price points are extremely competitive, always leaving me walking away feeling like I’ve just visited somewhere that serves tasty coffee and food with pleasant service and all at great value. Great job all round!
