Beanscene Expresso in Oak Park is Closing at the End of July After 23 Years in Business

Beanscene Expresso, an Oak Park mainstay for over two decades at 610 N. Lindero Canyon Road (in the Kids World strip mall), has decided to close its doors at the end of July.  Owners stated a number of factors, including the cost of rent, labor, insurance and other items.  Many folks will be sad to see them go.

A little over 3 1/2 years ago, the El Pollo Loco previously in the center closed and became a drive-thru Starbucks. I would expect that type of competition, literally 150 yards away, did not help future prospect for Beanscene.
