The Human Bean is your one stop locally owned & operated coffee shop (and mobile truck!) with nine locations serving Fort Collins, Loveland, Greeley, Evans, LaSalle and Windsor. Our local team is dedicated to embracing the community through donations to local nonprofits, as well as financial giving through our many events and fundraisers.
With a passion for creating happy people and our love of coffee, we opened our first drive-thru espresso stand in Ashland Oregon in 1998. The demand for convenient, quality coffee & espresso grew and soon after opening our original location in Ashland, we expanded to surrounding cities in Southern Oregon. The Human Bean quickly established a reputation for having friendly and experienced baristas and offering the highest quality ingredients.
Our commitment to developing the best drive-thru espresso led us to franchising The Human Bean’s brand and system in 2002. We expect to continue this growth through approved franchisees that share the same determination and commitment to our goals for this exceptional brand.
As a locally-operated business serving Northern Colorado, we believe in making our community a better place to live. We want to engage with members of our community and support organizations that combat against critical issues faced by those who live here. The Human Bean of Northern Colorado is proud to do business in such a philanthropic community and feels privileged to work alongside so many mindful people.
We are always seeking new, fun opportunities to engage with community members and give back.
