After finishing a Vegas run, I'm always ready for my Coffee Bean fix before I head home. The San Francisco Bay Area barely has any locations, only one that I know of in downtown San Francisco. I knew ahead of time the drink I wanted, a Malibu Dream, a concoction of strawberries and bananas.
I was a little disappointed that they didn't have the drink. Nevertheless, I opted for one of their summer drinks and chose the Strawberries & Cream, which I felt tasted the same. I also treated myself to a low-fat chocolate croissant. The drink was consistent with every other Coffee Bean drink I've had, but the croissant felt a little dry. However, it could of been my fault as I visited the cafe thirty minutes before closing. I will, however, take Coffee Bean any day over Starbucks.
