Welcome to The Bean...Gunnison's haven from the cold. Catering to Western State students and locals alike since 1993.

Now we all know sunny Gunny is a beautiful place but a bit nippy in wintertime...all that cold air blowing off Blue Mesa (Colorado's largest body of water) and meeting up with the icy downdraft from the mountains up in nearby Crested Butte. The Bean is owned and operated by Nancy, Tim and Kevin Leech who have built up a loyal following hooked on their rich coffee brews, mega smoothie menu (with male and Female inspired additives...call for details!) and their great sandwiches, crepes and pastries.

A Netcafe is rumoured to be in the works...watch this space for details. Drop in for a body warmer next time you're in town. Friendly service, neat lighting, free newspapers and, as always, great coffee!
