About Vanilla Bean Cafe
Official Launch site of Vanilla Coke!
May 8th, 2002
- Vanilla
Day Declared in Pomfret!
Coca Cola
launched Vanilla Coke here at "The Bean".
| The Vanilla Bean
Café opened in 1989 with a seating capacity of 16, today we seat 90
inside and 40 outside! Located in a restored, early 19th century barn in
scenic Pomfret, Connecticut, The Vanilla Bean Café is owned and operated
by the Jessurun Family, Barry, Brian and Eileen, with occasional
appearances by and help from the rest of the family.
Our
Philosophy was simple: "Create a place where we would feel comfortable
and serve food that we would want to eat. If we wouldn't eat it, we
certainly wouldn't serve it."
|
 |
 |
Homemade soups, sandwiches, and light dinners comprise our basic menu,
but daily specials made with creativity, imagination and seasonal
ingredients, spice up the menu. Baked goods, such as muffins, bagels, croissants, and cookies, come out of our ovens every morning, not to
mention our decadent desserts.
Our
goal is to serve you good homemade food in a comfortable, casual
atmosphere. As Eileen told a customer, "We provide comfort foods in a
comfortable place."
|
We
hope that you enjoy our establishment and will come back and see us
again soon! |
