World Bean

Waited 15 mins. One person serving coffee and making smoothies! Gave up. Self serve coffee only in 17 oz size for 3.50. Ripoff! Really, no coffee in delta la guardia?

«Can I get a Russian night?» Barista looks at me like I have two heads… Then proceeds to look for it on the menu. If you’re clueless about how to make a drink maybe you shouldn’t have it on the menu! Didn’t help that she moved as slow as molasses to go get ice from BFE. I mean you work in an airport, people are on borrowed time. What a joke this establishment experience was.

I wouldn’t normally review a snack bar in an airport. However, seeing as I had 5 HOURS to check it out, I can safely say that I’m acquainted with world bean (not their fault… hello delta airlines…)
Anyway, coffee — meh.
Sandwiches — meh.
Snacks — outstanding selection of healthy snacks, fresh fruit and Drinks.
A solid 3.

So, you found yourself in the pseudo-​future of Terminal D? Need a coffee or tea to wake-​up so you can read The Power of Now while you wait 2 hours for your flight to board cause you left extra early «just in case» there was traffic on the BQE? World Bean looks like the place to get that? Right? Wrong. Don’t waste your money. I actively boycott the place. Whenever I’m at Terminal D instead of buying lotto tickets on the iPad, I stand where the line forms for World Bean and block fellow airport patrons from stopping there. I suggest you do the same.

Pretty quick and decent for an airport but not the best coffee I’ve ever had for obvious reasons. I got the vanilla latte. Iced. I’m curious to try their teas but wasn’t gusty enough haha! Needed my caffeine.

Have you ever had to flag down a clerk to try to get a pastry, then had them give you the wrong thing because they couldn’t be bothered to pay attention? Then had them literally show you the hand when you ask them to fix it? Terrible customer service — not worth the overpriced coffee. Avoid at all costs.

Warm cat piss tastes better than their coffee and their other beverages are just as gross. There is no other option as far as coffee places to choose from in this airport, but really you should just get a coke instead.

Excellent top-​notch café. I ordered the Burundi hand-​poured coffee and it was so good, I got really excited. Was disappointed that the Starbucks wasn’t there, but this place more than makes up for it. With pastries from Balthazar’s, which has some of the best pastries in the city. Not cheap, but I would happily pay the $ 4 for an excellent cup of coffee over a $ 2 cup any day.

Terrible service– stood in line for a cup of tea, my turn came and the woman behind the counter literally looked at me and then walked away. Very rude. The only reason why this place has customers is because it is in the airport.

Really bad service. OK so you expect to get ripped off at an airport but the least they could do is provide average service. The all staff members were short and clearly aggravated. I ordered a latte and baked good asked for a receipt and she handed me a receipt with no coffee. I said the coffee is missing, she shrugged her shoulders and walked away. While I waited for my latte there was another frustrated customer waiting for his drinks which never came. I suspect the confusion is coming from them deleting all the cash drinks and then trying to remember what’s what. Finally I got the latte and the cup was barely half full, I went to get sugar and there was no raw or regular. I told the person behind the counter 3 times before she finally reached down and grabbed a handful and threw them to me… I hope no one else wants sugar.
Conclusion, go to Wendy’s and buy coffee if you are flying out of the Delta Terminal 2 at JFK.

If you want clean and healthy options in terms of coffees, smoothies, and tea, you’ll love this place. I was not in a rush so service was a non issue for me. I can see how travelers looking for a fly by would be turned off. The staff is genuinely nice and polite if you approach them that way. I had a fantastic Matcha Latte and refreshing Sparkling Lemonade (fresh squeezed) sans simple syrup. They carry dairy free options and do not pre-​sweeten anything thankfully. Great place to stop by in the airport, friendly staff and delicious.

There are two World Bean booths in LaGuardia’s Terminal D, and they’re pretty much your only option for coffee in this terminal (no there is no Starbucks here). The weird thing about the main World Bean location is the way you order, get your coffee (and any food items), and then you have to wait on another line to pay. There are quite a few cashiers open, but it does move a bit slowly at times, depending on how many people are making purchases. I have not tried their hot foods bar, but honestly it didn’t look very appetizing. The coffee though was quite good, and they do have soy milk available behind the counter (you have to ask for it).

I would not travel to come here but it is the only option for espresso and a decent snack at La Guardia terminal D. Their coffee service is a little weird as their is an express line where you order and get your drink and then you go in another line to pay at one of the cashiers along with the people that get sandwiches and other food to go

What’s big deal people? I know Laguardia is a terrible airport. But the coffee here was quite good, and the people working there were nice and efficient. I had a very nice hot drip coffee and enjoyed it. For Laguardia, not bad, and not Starbucks (thankfully) — though it is prob owned by them. for all I know.

Today was going to be a good day. Got up early, drove my car to JFK got a good spot. All indicators pointed out that in spite of the misty weather, I would be able to catch my first of the day Delta Flight and be on my way to San Juan. I approached the airport parked a little too far away by about a half mile walk. Signage added another 10 minutes to my walk. No fear, got to my pre flight terminal, swiped my credit card and low and behold, my flight was delayed till 8:40. Couple of reasonable questions to the charming Delta attendants, crew needed their rest. Ok. Sounds reasonable, I’d hate to board a flight over the Atlantic and get lost mid-​air. It’s been know to happen. Ok so what do you do in a ginormous complex like the Delta Terminal, we’ll actually you stand around, for there are
no seats. Moving on, checked my Kayak app. Next flight would be about triple the price. Stuck here. Damn. No to many options. Tried to reason with the gate attendants, non negotiable. Look at the enormousness of this flight cathedral and feel overwhelmed and quite powerless. Or should I say insignificant I’m the complex
world of airline reservations. It’s not 6:20 am check the self checkout terminal and it informs me that the flight boards on 10 minutes. A glimmer of hope, maybe. Check with attendant, the terminal information has not been updated. She suggests going to the terminal. 15 minutes later and a short walk via a labyrinth of stair and micro tunnels, that somehow feel other worldly and threatening, I arrive at at the scrotums end of another terminal. A quick check on my GPS and I confirm that I am still in this hemisphere. It’s only been 45 minutes since I parked my car and contemplated minuscule insignificance in the scope of this airline universe. Terminal C67 is a kind of airline cast away, in comparison to the mall of America complex that hits you after checking in, this place looks like a local strip center in the middle of Nassau country. The crowd lots weary and exhausted. After an aimless exercise in sign misdirection, I stumble into C67. It feels eerie an unwelcoming. This place does not feel like a launch pad to parts unknown, but rather a zombie like environment, we’re weary and exhausted travelers, come to rest and eventually die. This is the last stop. C67 is where time stands still. Vacant and hollow stated meet me as I approach the gate. There people are dead, casualties travel exhaustion.
I approach the gate, the woman there, is not alive. She mumbles something and I quickly realize I may not make it out of this terminal. A surge of panic, and I back off. Again, I feel the vacant stares from the tired and exhausted crowd. C67 is the end.
I quickly look around for a glimmer of hope. Will I ever make it out of this terminal. Just to the right of me I see, World Bean. World Bean? Not local beans, not city beans, but world bean. Quirky and unusual. But just maybe a quiet oasis in the vast empty ness that is terminal C67. I step into line an wait my turn along all the other traveling half dead. I order my coffee and a scone. $ 6 and change later I take my first cup of the day. What a pleasant surprise, the coffee is smooth and fragrant, with just the right hint of acidity, almost Stump town like. The scone, equally lovely and filling. I look around C67 and the pale hue of C67 has taken on a much warmer tone. The blank drones staring at me, are almost life like. Just maybe, this day may turn out to be okay after all.

Grossest hot chocolate ever. Even after you add your own sugar because they don’t add sweetener to it automatically. The cheese Danish was edible but not one i would want if i wasn’t stuck in an airport. I didn’t order any of the other pastries because they all looked over done. Don’t eat here. It doesn’t deserve the one star.

Cappuccino was decent. Staff was not as bad as the other reviews — maybe I just got lucky!
The options are great — you can buy so much more (magazines, fresh good, tons of bars and snacks) than just coffee — I like that about this place.

My iced coffee was disgusting. I choked most of it down because I needed caffeine, but still tossed away a sizable portion. The lone guy working was nice but didn’t totally seem like he knew what he was doing. They carry a decent selection of pastries and also have some tasty toffee — I picked up some dark chocolate espresso covered toffee and it hit the spot. I’ll head elsewhere for my coffee next time I’m in LGA.
peace, love, and good booze ~ chase

It’s sad to say, these people have committed to being really bad at their job. The coffee is fine but they don’t have non lactose friendly options. Also the cashier mistook ‘a’ for two and charged me for double what I purchased and then didn’t fix it right away. She made me wait and didn’t even apologize. I mean yea you work in a terminal so some people will never see you again but still!
The only saving grace is being able to snag a Balthazar almond crossaint. Delicious! They really get around.

Worst coffee experience ever. Rude baristas who talk on the phone while customers are waiting in line, dirty counters, empty supplies for half & half, no stirrers. The coffee itself is okay, better than Starbucks crap.
