If you're in the vicinity of Unity University in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, make sure to stop by Cream & Beans, a charming café that has quickly garnered attention for its unique offerings and inviting atmosphere. Although small in size, this café packs a punch when it comes to flavor and variety. It’s the perfect spot to grab a satisfying drink or a light meal, especially if you're on the go.

Cream & Beans specializes in an array of delightful beverages that catch the attention of both locals and visitors. Recent customers rave about the vibrancy of their smoothies and frappés, which are reportedly refreshing and delicious. For those looking for something a bit heartier, the chicken twister has received praise for being appetizing and filling, making it a great option for a quick bite. Just keep in mind that some reviewers have suggested the sauces could benefit from a little less generosity, allowing the flavors of the chicken to shine.

Now, let's talk about what makes this café a must-visit. The ambiance is lively, and while some patrons appreciate the buzz it creates, others have noted that the music can lean towards the loud side. This creates an energetic atmosphere, perfect for grabbing a drink with friends before heading off to explore or tackle your next class at the university. However, if you're looking for a quiet place to chat or study, it might be better to opt for a takeaway instead.

Customer feedback highlights that while the café appears larger in photos—some even found it on TikTok—it certainly emphasizes a cozy vibe. Helen Fikadu, a satisfied customer, expressed her longing for more branches in areas like Bole or Mexico, illustrating the strong local demand for this unique café experience.

The place seems bigger in photos. The frappé is nice. Too loud music. Too small. I would suggest the place for take away.

So today we went to this small cafe, because of the hype on tik tok. Firstly, we tried three of the matchas which were the frappe,latte, and the strawberry creme they were okay, however I felt like the latte and strawberry creme were severely watered down. But they had a really nice chicken twister which is so appetizing and kept me satiated, but they need to work on adding less sauce. Service was ok not amazing, food was not bad, lastly the atmosphere was very aesthetic. I would recommend this place for a matcha girlie.

Honestly the drinks are all amazing! I strongly suggest everyone to go and try this place. I gave it 4 because it is very far from where I am and the place is too small to hangout with friends. I hope there will be other branches opened around Bole or Mexico.
