I spent too many hours of my life here while in college. It was like a way of life. Still a great place, probably even better if it's not so steeped in nostalgia! Nice tables, the ham and cheese croissant was my pre o Chem test food. Also, I second the chess sets. Good outdoor seating too if it's that time of year.

Beacon Coffee Roasters has quickly become one of my favorite hidden gems in Bozeman. The atmosphere is unlike most coffee shops here. They have tons of different seating options, the crowd is a bit more of the college scene and most people are doing homework/work while there. My fiance and I love to go on the weekends and read while we have some coffee and a small bite to eat. Easily one of my favorite coffee places in bozeman. The coffee here in my opinion is some of the best in town.

I used to study here in the early 2000s and loved it. Came back in 2023 to find that it's even better than before! Superb cortado and cappuccino! Excellent breakfast paninis and pastries, and my kids loved the cookies!

The espresso ratio I believe is 1:3 I don't think it's pulled the best way it should. Their coffee bean and roastery is one of the best in 300 miles or more radius. It's roasted fresh often daily or day or two old. I would say for fresh roasted espresso or coffee bean go to this coffee shop. The roastery in terms of retail it's one of the best. The atmosphere is great and nice.

This coffee shop is a busy study location in Bozeman. The service and coffee were good, but there are limited places to sit as MSU students often study here. If you want a table, I recommend visiting this location prior to 10 AM on weekends.
