About Cafe Have Ya Bean

Upwey regulars head here for scratch-made breakfasts and meticulous espresso pulled without pretense. Run with the warmth of a busy home kitchen, chef-owner Paul turns out plates like Eggs Delicious and hearty schnitzel rolls, while the baristas take complicated five-step drink customizations entirely in stride. Morning light hits the European-style sidewalk tables out front, making it an easy spot to linger over freshly brewed chai or watch the kids tackle a marshmallow-topped piggy hot chocolate.

  • Custom Coffee Orders: Baristas patiently handle complex, multi-step bespoke orders with genuine care.
  • Sunny North-Facing Seating: Outdoor sidewalk dining sits in direct morning sunlight for relaxed European-style breakfasts.
  • Scratch-Cooked Mornings: Owner Paul cooks comforting staples like scrambled eggs, rolls, and schnitzel fresh from a compact kitchen.
