    This is an outstanding little café that is incredible in every way. The building is old, classic, and wonderful. Extremely quaint. Plenty of comfy sitting inside and outside. They prepare your coffees and other drinks with skill and care. Great food too. If you like the true coffee cafe vibe, you will definitely love this place.

    This place is a must try. Really cute, cozy and welcoming. Food and coffee was amazing! I really enjoyed their Mac and cheese. Delish! They have a nice big area outside to sit and eat, also dog friendly.

    They have such a cute place. The staffs are super friendly and answer your questions. You have to try it once at least. It was up to my expectations. They have great coffee, pasta, salad, confectionery, tea, and few more things. They are doing good job on salad. There is a huge board once you entered and you can find what you want. The interior decorations were extremely nice, wooden design with their dog mat, frame, pillows and everything. I hope the doggy is good but I didn’t see her there. But the best part, they have outdoor covered part on their balcony and not covered part right next to the stream. That was one of the very few coffee shops in US, I have approved.

    I was in town for a Spartan race and stopped into The Daily Bean for breakfast before the race and had an amazing time!!! The vibes are like the cafe in friends meets a hallmark movie. It’s a great spot. I can’t stress this enough if you’re a visitor passing through Vernon, New Jersey YOU HAVE TO STOP IM AND CHECK IT OUT. The staff is also very welcoming. I had a breakfast sandwich on sourdough bread and a dirty chai latte and it was delicious. The place itself is absolutely beautiful with so many cozy corners to sit in and the outdoor area is breathtaking. There’s a creek running behind the building and there is ample spots to sit outside. If you go and are lucky enough to meet the Bean herself be sure to give her lots of pets.

    I stopped by The Daily Bean when I was in Vernon to hike. I highly recommend stopping by! The people here are super nice and the space itself is super cute and welcoming. There are lots of indoor and outdoor seating, as well as board games and books. I got the avocado turkey hummus club, which was really filling and tasted very fresh. I also got a vanilla iced latte which was also good.

    We have been there only once so we didn’t try many things. We had sandwiche and quiche with bacon and cheese, then chai and green tea chai. Sandwich was good and quiche was excellent. Both chai were flavourful and not too sweet. The atmosphere was great and felt like I was back in Japan. When we come back to the area, it’s definitely a place to go.
