The Vanilla Bean Cafe

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.

Willington Pizza

Connecticut is beyond famous for New Haven-style a pizza, but what about the hundreds of other pizzerias around the Nutmeg State?

Willington Pizza has been a beacon to UConn students for decades, and their pizza is not to be missed. The bakery-quality crust tastes like fresh bread, and the inventive specialty options (especially their Red Potato and Seafood Combination pies) are sure to please even the orneriest palate. These are thick and crusty pies with toppings that explode with flavor.
