The location is ideal for hotel guests to grab a quick pastry or sandwich and to grab a cup of coffee. The decor is inviting with lounge chairs, sofas, and tables.
WIth that said, service left a lot to be desired. We were welcomed in line with a "what can I get for you." No "hello," or "welcome," just a curt "what can I get for you."
Also, the bean counters at MGM have decided that buying a bagel does not warrant getting any spreads. My friend had to pay .25 cents extra for peanut butter and jelly, which they won't even put on for you.
All in all, The Roasted Bean is a convenient coffee/pastry shop for Mirage hotel guests. If your not staying at the hotel, your not missing out on much.
