Tallahassee is in Florida, in the Southeast, where summers are long, hot and humid, winters are mild, and afternoon thunderstorms and the hurricane season from June to November can change plans at short notice. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Tallahassee follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

First time trying The Bada Bean. We had just traveled & needed breakfast. Wanted something different. We got a breakfast sandwich & breakfast burrito. With an order of home fries & two orders of cheese grits. With a Tiger Iced Chai, & hot Coffee. Everything was excellent & service was great. Definitely recommend.

This was a great brunch/breakfast meal. Im only knocking a star from the breakfast home fries. They were on the salty side. Prices and portion size match up well. I recommend others to try it and will return to eat again!

Great place for breakfast! I have not eaten lunch or dinner there; the skillets are on point it’s a bit pricey expect to spend around $25 for a skillet with coffee after tip. The skillets are great size portions and very delicious! Every server I’ve had at the restaurant has been a great server. Go try them out you will not be disappointed.

This seems like a very local sort of place. Everybody was friendly and more than half the people coming in got greeted by name. The food was just wonderful. I got the loaded Benedict and John got the Bada Breakfast, which consisted of French toast, eggs, bacon, and sausage. My Benedict had bacon, avocado, and tomato as well as a lovely hollandaise sauce. I am so glad we found this place and you should go eat there, but go early. It's very popular!

The décor leans hard into a Prohibition-era cosplay: “WANTED: Moonshine Runner” posters, Bogart stills, and enough memorabilia to make you wonder if there’s a secret password at the door. A plant or two wouldn’t hurt; something alive to balance out all the sepia-toned nostalgia. Still, it’s very Tallahassee: a true local hangout that feels like stepping into a slightly overcommitted version of Americana past. Parking is … an adventure. The shared lot (maybe 50 spots?) turns into a low-stakes hunger games depending on the hour. Got lucky and snagged a bench inside. The patio, which overlooks the parking lot, offers a different vibe: less “charming brunch” and more “watching cars circle like vultures.” Wait staff were attentive and efficient, even in the rush. Not a lot of small talk; more of a “we’re in this together, let’s survive brunch” energy. Overheard someone declare, “Best omelette I’ve had in a long time!” about the Meat Lover’s Omelette, which felt like a bold statement in a room full of eggs. The Loaded Benedict lived up to the moment: savory, light, and actually filling without knocking you out. Home fries were crispy and seasoned like someone in the kitchen cares. The
