Pure Bean

There are several places to grab a strong cup of coffee in Idyllwild, but Pure Bean is our favorite—and also the most convenient. It’s located on the main corner downtown and opens every morning at 6am. That might seem early, but keep in mind you’re in a town that revolves around watching the sunrise while sitting on a rocky outcrop. The coffee is certainly good, but the real selling point is the cozy sitting area with the most comfortable leather chairs our butts have ever touched. And we’ve sat in a lot of chairs.
