No-one needs a great cafe more than Esquimalt. In a community adjacent to a Naval base that is more noted for its quaint post-war houses and small seaside town feel - Beans & Greens Cafe is a welcoming sight for those tired of the corporate Tim Horton's and Boston Pizza offerings along the Esquimalt Road.
Near the corner of Esquimalt and Admirals Street, Beans & Greens is an interesting mix of kid-friendly, green thumb and gourmet coffee (by Discovery Coffee Roasters).
They even brew their shots with a Synesso - simply the best machine there is.
Beans & Greens caters to the community. Not just kid friendly, but family friendly too. With its location near a ship-yard and military base, Beans & Greens is a popular meeting place for spouses of loved-ones serving regionally or overseas in Canada's proud Navy.
Beans & Greens is located at 522 Admirals Road Esquimalt-Victoria, BC Give them a call for their hours: (250) 380-6336Colin is the Senior editor and creator of the CoffeeCrew.Com Website

If you really want to get into it, take an 8 oz cup of hot water and put it underneath a bottomless portafilter and pour it that way. Goes straight from the pf to the water, no cooling down from the ...
Got this grinder earlier this year, but it's too big for my kitchen and more grinder than I need.
The ginder is in good shape, but before arriving in my house I think it had a past life in a coffee...
Could bad taste come for poor maintenance?
Heck yes! It is the cause of 99% of taste problems with espresso coffee (all other mechanical things being normal and the coffee being fresh...)
