THE PAINTED BEAN


EXTERIOR
The patio is small, but very cozy. A high fence surrounds the area, providing separation from the hustle and bustle of the street for anyone who chooses to occupy the few tables outside.

INTERIOR
From the comfy couch to the hand decorated tables (where patrons can slide poems, drawings, pictures or postcards under the glass tabletops), this cafe has a relaxing, unique ambiance that provides a welcoming place to chat with friends, read a book or surf the internet via free Wi-Fi. Often, soft jazz or contemporary music is playing in the background. All art adorning the warm orange walls comes from local artists and can be purchased.

At night, small candles are lit and placed on all the tables.

MENU
As would be expected, The Painted Bean offers coffee, but also a wide array of loose-leaf teas.  Their lunch and dinner menu contains a variety of sandwiches and homemade soups with plenty of selection for vegetarians. Those who enjoy something a little sweeter with their coffee have freshly made pastries to choose from (the scones, in particular, are said to be the best in the city).
