Stopped in really quickly because my daughter was wanting a donut. The donut place in town was already closed but I found this bakery. I told her “they might not have donuts” and they did not, but as soon as we walked in she saw all these beautiful cupcakes and forgot she ever wanted a donut. The price was beyond fair, and they had a great atmosphere. We will be back!

Ok so Googled this place after I wanted some coffee as I was passing through McMinnville and man am I glad I stopped. I got the blackberry white chocolate scone and a coffee. The scone is to die for! Symphony of flavors just oozing from this dish. Blackberry and white chocolate complement one another well and neither overpower the other. Coffee is solid too. Stop here if you’re looking for coffee drinks, lunch, or baked goods.

I love everyone at the Vanilla Bean. Always a smiling face to greet you. Custom drinks and treats. I love that I can grab a chicken salad croissant for lunch and a sweet treat. They have great selection of baked goods and coffee drinks . Another wonderful addition to downtown.

Great atmosphere and friendly service. The drinks are delicious and the sweets are amazing! There is a comfy seating area in the front and tables and chairs under a covered area out back with plenty of parking in the back. Street parking is also available in the front.

I highly recommend coming here! me and my bestfriend were hanging out in town square and decided to go into Vanilla Bean. I haven't went to this place prior except for when my mother was delivering groceries to them. but this was the first time I had tried something of theirs. I decided to get the chai tea latte and it was DELICIOUS!! and as someone who struggles with communicating due to autism and what not, the staff was super friendly and made me more comfortable. not to mention the inside is very cozy and welcoming! I absolutely love this place and may go again another time when I'm out in town ☕️✨️

I visit this place frequently. I love the environment and the employees are always helpful and friendly. I've never had anything that wasn't delicious. To the staff, I want to thank you all for giving this city a place to enjoy a quiet cup of coffee. You've always been a welcome sight when I can get in there in the mornings

Coffee was ok, wish used actual caramel instead of syrup huge difference in taste. Cupcakes were very good. Surprised by chocolate cupcake; was very happy with the it being more moist than dry. Too many places chocolate cake/cupcakes are so dry. Must say not has moist has my mom’s chocolate cake however still better than many places. Would go back to get same baked items and try new. Cute place. Staff were very nice. I think the owner or main baker person came out to put items in case was bit surprise that didn’t get a hi or any acknowledgment from that person when I was right there and only customer in at time, would think especially if owner or manger type of role would have gave more attention/appreciation of a customer, which is normally more of what you see in a small town/small business like this. Overall would return and worth a stop if passing through.

I am so glad I found this perfect little shop. I have been In McMinnville all summer for school, and this coffee shop/bakery has been the most delightful find. The coffee drinks are delicious, the girls who run the place are sweet, friendly, & welcoming, the devour is adorable. And oh the pastries, breakfast items, & baked goods! So worth every single calorie. Each bite is a true decadent pleasure. I cannot say enough good things about The Vanilla Bean Baking Co, or how much I’m going to miss stopping here every day. If you’re ever even near the area (on a Wednesday through Saturday), stop in. You won’t regret it.
