studentZONE
Welcome to the studentZONE! at Blue Bean!
This is our dedicated space for students at our Ankeny location only — designed to give you access to a professional workspace without the price tag of a coworking membership.
Here’s the deal: grab your favorite latte, a coffee flight, or even go bold with a toast flight — then flash your student ID. That’s your golden ticket to the studentZONE, a study-friendly corner inside the most innovative shared workspace (and best coffee shop) in town 😎.
THE studentZONE GIVES YOU up to 4 hour access:
THE IMPORTANT STUFF:
We get it—your stuff is important. But let’s keep chairs open for actual people.
Please place bags under your seat or next to you so everyone gets a chance to sit, study, and caffeinate.
Thanks for keeping the zone friendly + functional! ☕📚
We love your taste in music (maybe 🙃), but the studentZONE is a shared space. Keep audio in your ears, not in the air. Thanks for keeping the vibe focused + friendly! 🎧📚
FAQs
Nope, studentZONE is strictly solo-booking. You can absolutely come with a friend — we love a good study buddy — but each person needs to book their own spot online. No +1s on this RSVP 😉.
Sorry, no outside snacks or sips. Blue Bean’s Coffee Shop Menu is the only one invited to this party. But hey — our toast and designer drinks are worth ditching your packed lunch for. 🥑☕️
Not quite. studentZONE has a designated section just for students. If it’s your first time, no stress — our vibe-ristas will point you in the right direction. (We promise it’s cooler than the school library. 😎)
We cap it at 4 hours per day so everyone gets a shot at the table. Time to stretch your legs (or grab another coffee to-go) 😉.
Those are available to rent separately — they’re not included with your studentZONE pass. If you need a private room for a group project or something fancy like that, you can book it online for an extra fee.
Yes — space is limited and shared with other Blue Bean members, so we cap the number of studentZONE reservations to keep the energy balanced and the experience comfortable. If it’s full, just snag a future slot online. No stress, no cramming (except for finals).
Our studentZONE is only available at our Ankeny location. So if you’re looking for that sweet mix of coffee, coworking, and student perks, head to Ankeny. Your study spot awaits (after booking it online that is… 😉)
