About Taste My Bean Hillcrest

Specialty espresso and fresh cafe staples meet drive-thru speed just off the Mount Lindesay Highway corridor. Commuters grab strong flat whites straight from the car window, or step inside for air-conditioned couches and midday laptop work. The kitchen goes heavy on the loaded açai bowls—piled generously with sliced fruit and peanut butter—alongside scratch-made kai like toasted sandwiches on fresh bread. Thick shakes like the maltpleaser can be ordered fully lactose-free, complete with dairy-free ice cream clearly marked on the cup.

  • Full-Menu Drive-Thru: Order espresso drinks, toasted sandwiches, and açai bowls on the go without stepping out of the car.
  • Loaded Açai Bowls: Loaded with generous layers of fruit and peanut butter for quick breakfasts or lunch runs.
  • Lactose-Free Shake Options: Blended shakes like the maltpleaser feature dedicated lactose-free milk and ice cream.

    Bowls are assembled with substantial servings of peanut butter, fresh fruit, and premium açai bases for a filling lunch or midday snack.

    that particular one was the best, the best because they were not stingy with their peanut butter fruits etc!
