A truly hidden gem. A coffee shop with a difference, you might say, as you walk through the doors and into the beautifully decorated restaurant – a perfect blend between contemporary chic and traditional elegance – and settle into the relaxing atmosphere that represents social life at its best and a much-needed escape from the hustle and bustle of life. Nestled in the heart of Benoni, Vanilla Bean has taken the coffee shop experience and refined it with our passion for food and people, offering a haven where people can get together and enjoy the finer things in life. From the delicious coffee shop menu cooked to perfection by our professional chef, to the extraordinary cakes and confectionery on show – we endeavour to instil a sense of wonder, delight and indulgence in all our guests. We specialise in all things decadent and delicious (and irresistibly tempting), creating culinary delights that are as much a treat for eyes as they are for the taste buds. Cakes, cupcakes, cookies and other sweet goodies make up our confectionery collection, available to buy at our shop or made to order for your special occasion. As well as a Coffee Shop & Confectionery, Vanilla Bean also caters for a wide range of events, delivering an exquisite selection of custom sweet and savoury food platters and light meals, ideal for baby showers, kitchen teas, pamper parties, adult birthday parties and other functions. We also have a stylish venue available for hire at our premises, giving you access to the perfect setting to host elegant parties, small weddings and business conferences. In short, Vanilla Bean is more than a coffee shop – it’s a lifestyle. A place where new friends are met, laughter is shared and memories are made.
