The Bean on Mesquite — Restaurant in Las Cruces

This is a really nice welcoming and cute coffee shop across from the park. I love this neighborhood. I selected a lavender iced coffee drink off of the menu. It was delicious. I didn’t try any food. Not sure if they had food options. I didn’t check. The place is clean and comfortable and has a cute outside patio in the front. There is also a little lending library shelf inside too and a community notice board. If I could change anything, it would be get rid of the disposable plastic cups. I know this is common in most coffee shops and it is the reason I don’t frequent them. I don’t want to drink out of any single use plastic I want a real reusable cup or glass when I am drinking it inside. Easily solved with a dishwasher and reusable cups, glasses or mugs, or offer a discount to people who bring there own reusable cup. Not sure if that’s allowed though. I did notice hot coffee was not in a disposable cup, so maybe it’s the iced drinks that come in plastic. Idk. Be kind to the planet and help end all this single use...

There are other options. So I'm updating my rating with fewer...

I had a Diablo mocha a few months back and it was absolutely amazing. I took my friends from out of town this morning and we ordered two hot and one iced and they all tasted like watered down hot chocolate from a packet and hot was luke warm. I asked the young lady behind counter if she had served us the right drink as they were watered down and didn't taste the same. All I received was a "yes" and she walked away to continue her personal conversation on the side. Extremely disappointed in the quality and service. We left the drinks on the table, I took mine to counter and left it there and she never even...
