Duh. No.

no. coffee has no nutritional value.

Coffee is actually considered a fruit, because the bean comes from the fruit of the plant. It is loaded with antioxidants. You can fool people at work or at home by asking them: "what is the most highly consumed fruit in the US daily?" the aswer of course is Coffee.

The coffee plant is a kind of berry, so it's fruit. The "beans" are the seeds.

Beans are legumes not vegetables so I would say no.

It would be a fruit, and only if you eat the beans.

All coffee and espresso, whether of the species coffea arabica (gourmet) or coffea robusta (grocery store), is always the pit of a cherry grown in sub-tropical climates. The "bean" or seed of the cherry goes through a long process of picking, pulping, skinning, washing, and drying before it is graded and processed for sale. Only high grade beans are earmarked for import.
