Wonderful service from our waiter freeman, the poor experience came from poor management. It is unexceptionable to shout and be disrespectful to staff members in staff meetings especially if you choose to have your meeting in the center of the restaurant well there are customers. Please be better!
Owner chased after a customer demanding payment for an order, only for her to realize that the customer paid for the order (receipt was presented). I would never support this store or recommend to anyone due their pathetic behavior.
Very good & food delicious...will go there again
Great food and great service. Not a huge fan of the coffee but that may be personal preference.
Good coffee, cake and food. Friendly and efficient staff
Great food. Great staff Great service. Highly recommend it
Was recommended this spot by a stranger... Was told to try their Carrot Cake and I would not be disappointed. Sure enough, it was fresh and huge. Have it with fresh cream and ice cream.
Good service -nice comfortable pop in coffee shop
The best coffee in Joburg! Hands down!
This is a relaxed and friendly environment. However their seating was not too comfortable. I did enjoy their coffee and muffins the most.Id like if they can play some ambient music.
Bad day in the kitchen. I ordered bacon and cheese panini. Some well done scrambled eggs for my son and french toast for my daughter. My order was scary. Lumpy cheese sauce. Completely underdone eggs. I cancelled my order. My sons scrambled eggs was runny and soft when I ordered them well done brought on a piping hot plate. My son is 1.5 years old. My daughters food was yummy though. Not sure Ill run back there after the food today. They offered to remake the order but I didnt feel like waiting another 45 minutes for my order and didnt have much faith that they would get it right the second time. Such a shame as Ive been there several times before and food is normally good. But also the first time Ive ordered breakfast there though.
Now is called conversations cafeThe beef burger is the best value around for sure! Service and drinks are good. Kitchen can be slow at times.
Amazing atmosphere, service and food.This place will always be on my morning routine.
Quick efficient service good quality food
A very cozy quaint coffee shop in Ferndale. Service is outstanding, food is exceptional and prices are very reasonable. As I sat down a waiter gave me a menu and took my drinks order, as soon as I made my food selection from the menu someone was there to take my order. Staff are polite, friendly and professional, will definitely add Beantree to my favorites list. A big thumbs up
Great breakfast place I have ever been to. The staff is friendly and active. You wont regret coming here. You will be exposed to a variety of options on the menu.This place is well situated, surrounded by many different shops that include the Spar, Spa, car wash, pharmacy, surgery and many more. From here, you are not far from the police as well as the magistrates COURT of RANDBURG.
Nice little restaurant. Good range of affordable food. Staff not as attentive as would be ideal.
Cute little restaurant with good food and good service. Great for a quiet breakfast or lunch or coffee date.
Beantree is quaint café located at Ferndale Village adjoining the Spar. It boasts a simple menu with South African favourites. The service is great and the food is tasty and affordable. Its conveniently located and attracts a more mature crowd making it the perfect place for catching up with a friend or when wanting to work remotely.
Much better menu now that they have rebrands as conversations! Best breakfasts!
Good Cake and presentation, beautiful decor, sub-par service though. Waiters can be a tad friendlier. Kitchen closes 45+ minutes before closing time? Rather close earlier than have a first time customer find out he cant order almost an hour before you close
Horrible, bitter, boiling hot coffee. Service was bad, nobody came to serve me, eventually when my coffee was ready it just sat on the counter. The staff were not busy just inattentive.
Love going to the Beantree for breakfast. Wonderful friendly efficient staff, the food is lovely and reasonably priced
Stop and buy a cappuccino every morning. Very friendly staff and great service ☕
Such a hidden gem! Willing to drive out of my way to have breakfast here. Food is amazing and waitrons are super sweet
The eggs were raw. So as the sausage. The waiter did not listen to the orders.Waited forever that someone assist you to pay...
Very convenient and close to randburg magistrate court.
Good food. Nice place all around but the noise levels get too high on the inside making it difficult to hold a conversation. limited seating outside.
Well priced, delicious food provided by friendly staff. Lovely spot to chat and have coffee
Great Service, Manager was very friendly
This place really shoots above its wait. Management really attentive with good and & good coffee. Excellent value
A pleasant surprise, and the retro look and feel is amazing
Popped in for lunch at the Beantree Cafe in Ferndale Village. New menu and unfortunately what we chose wasnt all available. But.... owner Sarah quickly apologised, sorted out our order and offered us Lattes on the house... and a hot bowl of chips. Now that is customer service!!
Very good breakfast, quick and efficient!
Not well run. Needs proper menus. Does not cater for vegetarian or vegan
Id say its a good spot for a coffee and breakfast at most.
Great atmosphere and plenty variety to enjoy!
Highly dissapointed in the service. Ordered 2 cuppucinos and breakfast and got the cuppucinos and waited 50 minutes for the breakfast. And was then told the manager is not there and our breakfast only for 2 people will take a couple of minutes more. So we paid for our cuppucinos and left we were there from 11am till past 12:15 and was only giving a sorry for your wait. Very upset with the way we were treated and the long wait for nothing.
Most enjoyable breakfast lovely atmosphere.. Most attentive staff
Awesome place, great customer service.
Lovely staff and manager. Tasty toasted zarmie
Great coffee shop right next to Spar!
Super friendly staff
Good food well presented & reasonable prices
Its a Spar Cafe, temper your expectations accordingly. Everything is below average and surprisingly expensive for what you get. Service was slow and food took a long time to be prepared.
Good food and good service
Nothing special about it... (sorry my view)... One of those breakfast places. Yes, yes, .. I would keep visiting this place. Its within my reach for a lazy Sunday morning stroll, gulp STUFF and come back to laze on bed. (ag, I wish someone to counter me like Marinda in Devil Wears Prada when Andrea says STUFF)... Well, what makes me to keep going. .. they are very clean and beautiful.
Good food and service, reasonable prices. Recommended.
Nice and cozy and good food.
Best friendliest service and finest breakfast Ive had in a while.
We walked out! We left cash on table for terrible cold coffee. We ordered a cheese muffin and an apple danish. No need to prepare - just take out of the glass cabinet- they never arrived ... we’d been there for at least an hour! It’s the 3rd time I’ve been there... no improvement of service, cleanliness or smiles! We won’t be back! 😡
Great atmosphere, relaxing place. Food is awesome, from pastries, breakfast to one of the best burgers I have ever eaten.Service is amazing, manger makes an extra effort to find out if everything is ok and also provides recommendations.Bring your car to soapy rides, and grab a bite at Beantree.Tsepho is one awesome waiter... 5 stars...
Wimpy makes better coffee!! Bought coffee their this morning and it tasted terrible... Eventually threw it away... Service with a smile wouldnt hurt either
He service was fast and very attentive! We ordered the croissant royale and he South African farm breakfast, both meals were fantastic especially the croissant royale! The cappuccino and cafe mocha were both excellent! Will definitely be back soon
Delightful toasted sandwiches and milkshakes in comfortable surroundings.
The food is very good and the staff fantastic
This is my best place for breakfast.
Great food and service!
I feel like I wasted my money and time buying coffee and a cake so I could use their free WiFi for customers and I couldnt even log on! Their excuse...their WiFi is inconsistent and dependant on how many people are on it. My suggestion .... UGRADE YOUR WIFI.
Great service and quality food
Nice place for business meeting, has power plug for laptop
Ate pancakes was so nice with fruit en ice cream nammies
The Coffee is amazing here and the staff is friendly
Pleasant atmosphere, food great, airy room and comfortable seating.
Racist manageress. Not recommended if you are of colour. Service in general is pathetic and a long wait for your food.
Quiet place for Coffee and meeting with customers

Great coffee, value for money food. A regular stop for us.
Great food and cakes but service can be a little slow at times.
