New Flavors Everyday! at Beans and Leaves Cafe in the heart of Staten Island.
A Family Story with Local Roots
Founded in 2011 by Staten Island native Megan Coppola, Beans & Leaves Coffee and Tea Cafe was inspired by family history and a love for community. The cozy French Country design pays homage to Megan’s grandmother, who worked in the very same Forest Avenue storefront in the 1970s. Today, the cafe blends tradition, family, and passion into every detail, making it a true Staten Island landmark.
Locally Owned & Community Focused
With two convenient locations — on Forest Avenue in St. George and Arthur Kill Road on the South Shore — Beans & Leaves proudly serves coffee lovers across Staten Island. Our fair trade coffee beans are freshly brewed daily, and our globally sourced teas are available by the cup or in bulk. From seasonal specials to daily favorites, we’ve become a go-to cafe for locals and a destination for visitors looking for an authentic Staten Island experience.
Personalized Service in Every Cup
At Beans & Leaves, we believe coffee is personal. Every guest is treated like family, and our baristas take the time to craft your drink just the way you love it.
