About Brew & Beans
Brew & Beans is a cozy isometric cafe simulator that runs right in your browser. Your old mentor Arthur hands you the keys to The Steam Cafe: creaky floors, faded paint and a lot of potential.
Place tables, counters and coffee machines, brew drinks, carry them on your tray and serve your guests before they lose patience. Every order earns coins and experience, and every level unlocks new furniture and recipes.
As the cafe grows, regulars start dropping by. Win their friendship to learn secret recipes. Then a corporate chain called MegaBucks opens across the street, and it's time to hire staff, upgrade your machines and restore the building into something grand.
- Story mode in 4 phases: The Inheritance, The Regulars, The MegaBucks War, Seasons of Steam
- 25 recipes, including seasonal drinks and secret recipes
- Regulars with their own stories, favourite drinks and friendship ranks
- Hire a barista and a waiter, upgrade machines for faster brewing
- Restore the building: Worn, Cozy and Grand styles
- Master Barista Championship and seasons that follow the real calendar

Busks outside, writes songs inside. Pays in coins and the occasional melody.
Opens a MegaBucks on every corner. Yours is the corner he wants. Serve him fast and his promos fall flat.
Your staff
Brews and collects drinks on her own, so you can focus on guests.
Same job, different shift. Hire after the quest An Extra Pair of Hands.
Carries finished drinks to waiting guests automatically.
