If you're going to Xtreme Bean don't expect a Starbucks, Tea Leaf & Coffee Bean, or Cartel atmosphere. During the school months it is usually packed with students studying (or cramming). On weekends they feature live music from bands of the indie/folk/jazz/coffee shop music variety. If you're a student that doesn't mind studying in a somewhat noisy atmosphere be it with a study group or by yourself, then this coffee shop is worth checking out.
The coffee and cranberry scones are good, but I think they could benefit from offering a few more breakfast items for students on the go. Their teas, iced or hot, are also worth a try.
Overall, Xtreme Bean offers good coffee and teas, is less pretentious than Cartel, and has a lot of study space as other reviewers have noted. It is also a great study place if you don't mind a somewhat noisy atmosphere.
