About This Spot

Stepping into The Blue Bean Coffee Co. feels like slipping into a quietly welcoming corner of Ebbsfleet Valley where familiar faces and the gentle hum of conversation set a calm, easy-going rhythm. The cozy seating arrangements invite you to pause—whether to catch up on a few pages of a book, share a moment with friends, or simply watch the day unfold over a thoughtfully prepared coffee.

This neighborhood coffee shop is more than just a spot to grab a caffeine fix; it’s a space where warmth spills beyond the steam of freshly pulled lattes and cortados. The menu reflects a mindful balance between classic choices and comforting seasonal offerings—cold brews and frappés that cool and refresh, as well as vibrant smoothies that add a bright note to the day.

The Blue Bean’s atmosphere fosters connection in low-key, genuine ways. There’s a sense of care woven through the friendly attention of the team, who remember your favorite drink and greet you by name, making every visit feel personal. Families, students, and local workers alike find their rhythms here, with a flow that’s as welcoming to a busy morning coffee as it is to gentle afternoon chats or quiet working sessions.

Beyond the coffee, the spaces embraced by natural light create a backdrop that feels both uplifting and grounded. Occasional social evenings bring a hint of livelier energy, knitting the community tighter in shared enjoyment of good company and thoughtfully crafted drinks. Whether you stroll in ahead of the school run or pause mid-day, The Blue Bean offers a quietly joyful place to settle in, breathe out, and savor small moments of everyday delight.

Real Coffee and Delicious Pastries We’ve been living in Swanscombe for over 2 years, and how did we miss this place until now? We finally found the perfect coffee shop! The coffee was exceptional, and I had a blueberry muffin that was absolutely delicious — and yes, I know what I’m talking about as a baker myself! But it’s not just the food. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the staff are amazing — polite, friendly, and always smiling. We’ll definitely be coming back for more, as there’s so much more to try, and I have no doubt we’ll be impressed again!

Cozy Vibes and Great Coffee I recently visited The Blue Bean Coffee, and it was such a pleasant experience! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, perfect for studying, chatting with friends, or just relaxing with a good cup of coffee. The staff were genuinely friendly and attentive. From the moment I walked in, they greeted me with a smile and helped me choose between a few of their specialty drinks. You can tell they really care about customer satisfaction and know their coffee well. Great coffee, great people, and great vibes — I’ll definitely be coming back!

A great place to grab a coffee pre the school drop off. Menu is great. Always remember my preferred coffee . Social evenings are always well run with a good crowd in attendance. Just popped in for a toastie for lunch!

Fantastic local coffee shop, so much better now the old manager has left! Or as we call him Mr Grumpy! Great staff, always top service, a really great small local business that supports local business's. By far the best coffee in Ebbsfleet, their Ebbsfleet International train station coffee shop is a life saver!!

My son and I were in Swanscombe on last Saturday to view a house and spotted this little café — so glad we went in! The place has such a nice vibe, with friendly staff and comfy seats. I had a latte (really smooth and tasty!), and the manager kindly recommended a brownie for my son, who has a peanut allergy — it was delicious and safe for him to enjoy. Everything was just perfect. Can’t wait to move nearby and make this my regular coffee spot!

We found this place by accident. Great coffee shop with a nice selection of food, and it also serves alcohol. Has a nice feel about it, staff are so friendly. Has indoor and outdoor seating. They hold regular music nights and quiz nights. There is WiFi, and it's a great place to catch up with work on a laptop. We had pistachio lattes, a toastie, and a panini. We then noticed they serve baileys frappes, so we had to give them a try before we left There is a large car park with 3 hours of free parking so you can relax and chill out for a while. We will definitely be back. It's such a great place.
