Heyday Canning Company earns largely positive reviews for turning canned beans and soups into fast, flavorful meal-makers, with standouts like Coconut Curry Chickpeas, Harissa Lemon Chickpeas, Kimchi Sesame Navy Beans, Enchilada Black Beans, and Tomato Alla Vodka Cannellini. Reviews also flag weaknesses: occasional blandness or excessive sweetness, mushy or overcooked beans, bitter or oily notes, very high sodium, and some flavors missing depth—making quality uneven across SKUs.

  • First off, LOVE the branding and that alone makes me want to continue buying it as I have an open pantry. The beans were good and the flavors unique but I don't think they lived up to my expectations. The tomato alla vodka I wouldn't' get again, maybe they would've been better with cheese and additional spices (what cant parm and fresh garlic fix??) but the point here was convenience. The apricot glazed were almost perfect, there was just a weird spice note that tasted too sharp imo and keeps me from wanting more. Would still consider trying the other varieties!

  • I tried the enchilada black beans and the kimchi navy beans. The enchilada beans were so good. I could eat them alone. Great flavor from both and when I checked the ingredients they rate high on Yuka as a clean brand. I want to try them all.

  • Beans have great flavor! The price is pretty steep - not sure I'm willing to pay it on a regular basis, but it's a fun idea. If they could get the price down to about $2/ea, it would be great.

  • I loved these beans! Super amazing flavor and tasted great in a taco bowl. Price was a little high but you get the quality you pay for

  • I tried the enchilada beans. They were good, but nothing groundbreaking. They are considerably more expensive than other cans of beans, and just not worth it in my opinion. However, if you don't mind spending almost $5 for one can of beans...they are tasty :)

  • These beans were great! I loved the more unique flavor options. They were very flavorful and went well with my rice dishes.

  • Great tasting bean with a wonderful sauce. I don't typically eat beans, but this was great as a side dish with pasta especially since the sauce was rich and creamy. I recommend this when you want a hearty meal to stay full throughout the day. It is a perfect lunch side dish.

  • Overall, these have definitely elevated the bean game but as much as I wanted to love all of the flavors, I just didn't. The best, in my opinion, is the Kimchi Sesame - super unique and great with salmon/rice bowls for an extra protein boost. While I don't like the other flavors as much on their own, I did make some rockin sweet potato enchiladas with the Enchilada beans, and added the Harissa Lemon to a shakshuka to make it more hearty.

  • Stopped into Whole Foods to pick something quick up for dinner... I was immediately drawn to the fun packaging and logo along with the variety of flavor profiles. Huge penne vodka sauce fan over here, so I was naturally drawn to the Tomoto Alla Vodka. Maybe I'm not a bean girlie, but it just did not hit the way I wanted it to. Needed extra flavor and the texture was off. Interested to try other flavors.

  • The Harissa Lemon Chickpeas were really incredible, and a super versatile pantry item. I heated them up on the stove and poached a few eggs in them to make a shakshouka of sorts. But at their current price, I really don't see myself buying these more than once a month whenever I stop in a whole foods.

  • what a grain line of canned goods. my favorite is the harissa lemon chickpeas. their products really make meals easy.

  • i appreciate they are trying to make a healthy product. They are delicious and I love that I can buy with confidence knowing I am choosing a good choice for my family. My only compliant is they are so expensive.

  • Delicious! The flavor is pretty strong too, great vegetarian protein addition.

  • The enchilada beans were just ok. I had to doctor it up quite a bit. I would be willing to try other flavors in the future.

  • Can eat them right out of the can - so tasty!

  • I cooked the contents as a full quick meal. I’ve never had a canned flavored chickpea product before, nor am I aware of any similar products. Overall the taste was great—very balanced, however they were a little saucier than expected. Perhaps longer on the stovetop would have reduced them to be more my liking.

  • Very flavorful canned beans. They come in all sorts of interesting flavors that regular beans do not give. I enjoyed eating this with fresh naan bread.

  • I bought the Heyday tomato all vodka product, and my whole family loved it. I used it in pasta, and it definitely elevated the meal. I am eager to try out some of the other brands.
