"Came back after a week and met Chris the owner and charismatic spiritual guru of the highly eclectic clientele. Warm welcoming and enlightened, Chris is the perfect host for this amazing venue. FyiCool Bean attracts a fantastic group of famous musicians who come to jam on the entertainment nights. It just doesn 't get any better! Fab food , drinks, and an oasis of peace, love and tranquil. Stopped by Cool Bean recently, for an after theater night cap. The place was packed and listening to a smoking hot group doing covers of Neil Young John Mayer, the Stones, etc. They crushed it! Cool Bean provided us with a few hours of fun conversation and live music. Chris the owner, and Stephanie,the lovely and effervescent manager were gracious and excellent hosts. I loved their signature iced coffee drink called Happy Husband a mix of iced coffee, chocolate syrup and Kahlua. My wife had a virgin Happy Husband! Without kahlua and extra chocolate syrup. The music, coffee and libations ,as well as the Woodstock type ambiance are a virtual guarantee of a mood changing upbeat evening. The eclectic crowd of college kids , young couples, seniors and locals proved to be a great combination for a fun evening. Kudos to Chris for maintaining a unique coffee , bar, and talent showcase. A great place to meet after a Bergen County Players production at the old firehouse theater in Oradell, or for a night out with friends."
