It's about time my lovely wife Pat and I went to this fine café. I had always mistakenly assumed it was a simple coffee shop (just going by the name). I was certainly wrong, it is so much more. It has a varied food selection and seem to be keyed more towards Korean food selection. I noticed today's special was a very glamorous grilled cheese and the description made it sound extremely appetizing. Not ones normal, nor simple type of grilled cheese. Although I was tempted, I stuck with my original reason for going here, to try their Korean meal selection. At the counter I ordered their advertised (on the wall) BBW Pork consisting of BBQ Pork (of course), fried eggs, steamed rice and greens. I was not sure what the greens were but found them delicious. Visually reminded me of mermaid tails, but very small. Pat ordered the Japchae and mandoo dumplings (went with the beef and pork option). Her choice consisted of stir fried sweet potatoes vermicelli noodles. Once again, when eating out, Pat had enough left overs for her dinner later this day. I completed the eating of my meal and felt very content afterwards. Pat especially enjoyed her café latte. I truly enjoyed the freshly made strawberry smoothie. I had intended to go with their famous hot chocolate but the idea of a smoothie overtook me. Next time. We both look forward to returning. When I asked Pat what she thought of this place she stated, "it's my new number one place" 🙂 Update; we've both been back here a few times. Our only limitation are funds. We tend to plan outings a bit more budgeted. If money no object, this would be a regular stop. As it stands, we use this fine café as our reward system and star attraction for bringing...
Read moreReally lovely cafe that I'd recommend to anyone. I moved into the area last year and have been making my rounds to different cafes. This one is a little bit of a drive for me, but worth it!
I haven't tried their whole menu, but everything I have had was great. The pesto panini is hearty and delicious. The poke bowl is really fulfilling and one of my favorites' for a healthy meal. The bibimbap is also amazing and I think their korean food is a strong point!
Their drinks are also delicious. I haven't explored much yet in their coffee menu, but I have really enjoyed variations of their lattes. I also had the citron tea and was pleasantly surprised at that. It was very refreshing for a hot day.
Prices are reasonable and on par with prices in the area.

Read moreJitter Bean Cafe is easily one of my favourite spots in the Moncton area. The staff there is very kind and always remember me and my mom (they also always remember how she likes her tea). One thing I've noticed is their attention to detail. The food is always delicious and well made. When ordering for take-out, they staple the bag shut so nothing falls out. When eating in, the food is plated with care and looks pretty. I always say that the food feels like it was made with love. But in all seriousness, Jitter Bean has definitely earned a 5 star from me for...
