The Magic Bean is open in the evenings from 5 ish to Late everyday of the week. It is not uncommon to see us at 2-3am serving coffee to a late-night customer, who wants to stay up or is working late. We have been in our new location for only a few months and are considering earlier hours. We welcome all who want to hang out, be cool and have some coffee.
....
Over the years many magazine and newspaper publications including MSU's Standard and Sprinfield's News Leader have written articles about the Magic Bean Gallery and Coffeehouse. Their articles have had a variety of topics, ranging from our open mics, bands playing the coffeehouse, to moving to new locations, but most have included statements about the eclectic environment or atmosphere we provide. We do have an eclectic clientele of coffee drinkers and performers. We've been a place to meet up with friends or meet new friends or to come in and sit and not be bothered and work or read.
