Bean & Basket💖Americano Coffee and Banana Cake are my favourites. Above all, I LOVE the staff. This coffee bar and Artisans gifts community is a must check out <3
Highly recommend visiting the Bean & Basket! Michelle embodies everything that makes this establishment special. Her genuine warmth and eagerness to connect with everyone who walks in is truly heartwarming. Whether you're a regular or a first-time visitor, she treats you like an old friend, eager to learn about your interests and experiences. Michelle makes everyone feel included, a great addition to the Village community!

Bean & Basket offers a cozy atmosphere with a gentle pace, making it a perfect spot for relaxing or working. The café features a variety of local artisanal products, including sourdough bread, handmade trinkets, and natural soaps. Located just off Kingston, this cute coffee shop provides a calming space with zen-like tunes, ideal for spending hours. The menu includes delicious coffees, desserts, and vegetarian options like Americano Coffee and Cheese Croissant, along with gluten-free treats and a delightful chaga chai latte. Customers praise the high-quality espresso and milk frothing, though service can sometimes be inconsistent, with some staff being quicker and more skilled than others. Parking is limited with a tiny lot and scarce street parking, but many find it worth the visit for a special treat or unique gift. The shop also features products from many local vendors and occasionally organizes workshops. Kid-friendliness is noted with a mini table and chairs for children, although wheelchair accessibility is lacking. Overall, Bean & Basket is a charming place that offers a warm environment for coffee lovers and shoppers alike.
