The Brown Bean is the Best Coffee/Tea/Lunch spot in all of Danville. The atmosphere is quaint and charming. It has a dining room with perhaps 20 glass tables with pretty tablecloths underneath, a side booth, and a couch with two chairs. It gets very busy during lunch time, but otherwise it’s very quiet – perfect place for a lady to sit down with a friend and enjoy excellent sandwiches, soup or dessert, along with gourmet coffee, cappuccino, or chai. They even serve wine, if desired. Lovely music played is sold in the Gingerbread House, which is actually attached to The Brown Bean, accessible through the dining room back door. The servers are friendly, and though you order up front, they bring everything to your table. I’ve never been unhappy with anything I’ve ordered, except for espresso and cappuccino. They don’t seem to know how to make a really good one, but if you like drinks with flavors, you won’t notice it. Highly, highly recommended for friends, mother/daughter, sister/sister!!!! Lovely place! And shop afterwards in Gingerbread House!
