Bean & Gone Espresso Bar

HAPPY THURSDAY ☕️

Sorry we’ve been a little quiet on here…

We’ve been really busy behind the scenes planning some lovely autumn/winter specials for you all! We’ll be sharing more details on those soon! 🍂

Until then we’re still here everyday so pop in and say hi!

A little treat for all you runners this weekend Pudsey 10k 🏃🏼☕️

Have a lovely weekend everyone! ☕️

CONGRATULATIONS LUCY! 🎉

The whole B&G team are so proud of you for smashing your A levels! You totally deserve it!

We do now have to come to terms with you actually leaving us in September (we’ve been in denial) … but we couldn’t be happier for you! 🎓

Enjoy your celebrations 🥂

Hello everyone!

Please bare with us today - we are short staffed and our dishwasher has packed in.. which makes it really difficult to try keep on top of washing up! 🙃

We will be serving all drinks/cakes in takeaway cups and plates to help us until we can get it sorted!

Sorry for any inconvenience caused!

Three things we love in no particular order:

♥️ the weekend
☀️ this weather
🧊 iced coffee (especially this cold brew)

We’re here till 3, come say hi!

Hi guys.. a long post from us but an important one ♥️

We would just like to remind every one of our laptop policy at the shop. We politely ask that people do not work on laptops during the weekend (Saturday and Sunday) This does not include week days - we encourage laptops on a week day.. the shop is quieter and it makes for a lovely working environment. We understand that not everyone works Monday - Friday (we also work weekends too!) but unfortunately it is just not something we can accommodate at a weekend.

We are not doing this to be awkward or difficult, we are doing this to try and run our business in the most effective way for us and our customers. Since we first implemented this policy back in November we have found it has made a huge difference to our weekends. Thank you so much to everyone who has understood this.

We are a small coffee shop and get really busy on a weekend and we are so grateful for this. We want to be able to accommodate as many people visiting us as possible with the 9 tables that we have in our space.

Unfortunately, a Facebook post disagreeing with our policy has been put up and from this we are receiving bad reviews and nasty Facebook comments from people who have never been in our little shop or experienced what we have to offer. Social media is a wonderful tool for businesses and can have a really positive impact on them, but when it is used in a way that people can comment on a situation that they were not part of it can be hugely upsetting but also really damaging for a business.

Getting angry at our team or comparing us to larger coffee shop chains just isn’t helpful. Costa have 3,821 stores and we are 1… 1 little shop with huge over heads, an extremely hard working team to pay and lots of rising costs to contend with. So every person, every coffee and every bagel counts. When we have 1 person taking up a table for 4 during our busiest period unfortunately we have to say something.

Times are hard, we are seeing hospitality business closing down every week.. and we really don’t want to be the next. We love what we do, we love being in Pudsey and we love all our customers that support us and we really do hope that this one small request doesn’t discourage people from visiting us! We’re just trying our best.

Thank you so much for your continued support as always,

Ella & Ryan x

(AKA Mr & Mrs Wade!)

We’ve had so many requests for these little custard tarts to make a comeback… so here they are! 🍮

Come grab one before they go, I’ve got a feeling they won’t last long!

HAPPY 30TH BIRTHDAY RYAN/THE BIG BIG BOSS 🎉

In between working a full time job, playing ice hockey every other day and being the best dog dad.. you still manage to give absolutely everything to the shop!

He’s the problem solver, the organised one, the one who drinks the most coffee and he makes THE BEST espresso martini 🍸 but all joking aside, we’d be lost without him!

Thank you for everything you do day in, day out, B&G wouldn’t be the same without you!

P.S we are having a big birthday party this weekend and will be celebrating in style.. so we thought we best give Ryan (and the rest of the team) the day off to nurse our hangovers… 🤕

❗️We will be closed on Sunday 19th May❗️

Back open as normal from Monday 20th ☕️

It’s Wednesday, it’s lunchtime, you’re hungry… come see us for a NY bagel 🥯

P.S if you come between 12 and 2pm you can grab it in our lunch deal!

HAPPY SUNNY SATURDAY ☀️

And a big welcome to the lovely Lydia (Charlotte’s little sis!) who has just smashed her first Saturday shift like a pro 💪🏻

Thank you SO much to everyone who visited us today! It was a busy one but everyone was so patient and kind which makes a huge difference in those mad rushes!

Enjoy the beer gardens and we will be back tomorrow from 10am - 3pm ☕️

POV: You woke up 10 minutes earlier so you could grab a coffee from us before your train journey 🚆

We’re open from 7:30am every week day!

HELLO SUN ☀️

Ok… so it might still be only 5°c outside but the sunshine this morning got us really excited for warmer weather and summer drinks!
