The Vanilla Bean Cafe Menu

by

Charming, chill haunt for locavore American staples, plus live music & open-mike nights, since 1989.

Located in a restored, early 19th century barn in scenic Pomfret, Connecticut, The Vanilla Bean Café has been owned and operated by the Jessurun Family since 1989. Homemade soups, great chili, chowder, sandwiches, salads and burgers along with other grilled items comprise our basic menu, but daily specials made with creativity, imagination and seasonal ingredients, spice up the menu. The Bean is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner featuring local products along with beer & wine, we also offer great coffee, baked goods, such as muffins, bagels, macaroons, cookies & cakes. Called “Connecticut’s Best Country Café” by Yankee Manazine.
