I love this place. Every drink I have gotten here has been delicious and special. I really appreciate how CC, the owner, is so welcoming and patient with questions about the menu. I love to try the monthly specials. The Hibiscus Mango Fizz with lychee stars is also a favorite of mine. -
AMAZING matcha!! I’ve been on the hunt for some good matcha in Durham and this hit the spot. Not too sweet or clumpy or bitter, literally perfect. We also got the sago desert with mango which was delicious! Can’t wait to be back and try more from their menu. The customer service was excellent and we’re so happy to find a local business we love! -
Super cute spot!
We ordered the strawberry Matcha and the winter melon fizzy drink. They are both super good but the winter melon was our favorite. We ordered both with Boba. We were visiting from out of town and the owner is super nice and helpful with suggestions on the menu. Highly Recommend visit! -
I started frequenting The Bean Flower a couple of months ago after my sister took me for the first time. I’m not a matcha enthusiast or connoisseur in any way, shape, or form, but this place has the best matcha I’ve ever tried by FAR! The staff is always super friendly and efficient, the space is super cute inside, and they sell adorable stickers and merch too. I would highly recommend this place! -
I got an ube matcha with boba and coconut milk that’s DELICIOUS! My only disappointment is I wont be coming back at their current price point. When the total came to $12.50, I was shocked. If you have the budget for it, it is the best matcha Ive found in Durham!
