Cedar Bean’s Coffee Joint

Cedar Bean’s Coffee Joint is a craft coffee shop located at 575 Pompton Avenue in Cedar Grove, New Jersey, founded in 2017 by Dave Fletcher. The shop serves handcrafted beverages, house-baked treats, teas, and single-origin and blended coffees roasted on an energy-efficient machine that reduces fuel use by 80% and cuts greenhouse gas emissions. Beyond coffee, Cedar Bean’s functions as a community hub — hosting live music, monthly art gallery openings, vinyl spinning, and family-friendly events — and has been recognized as a Taste of Essex winner in both 2019 and 2022.
