Queen Bean Coffee Bar and Bistro on Ventnor Boardwalk

For the past 13 years, Jon and Patty Talese operated a successful eatery on Asbury Avenue in Ocean City. Last year, they sold their namesake restaurant, Jon & Patty’s.

Soon thereafter, retirement was presumably put on hold. An opportunity arose for the couple to run a small, Ventnor Boardwalk based coffee bar & bistro.

Ventnor welcomes Queen Bean Coffee Bar & Bistro on the Boardwalk inside Vassar Square Condominiums.

Queen Bean Coffee Bar and Bistro now open daily through September.

The Queen Bean Coffee Bar and Bistro is named after Vassar’s heritage as the “Queen of the Boardwalk.”

Fresh From Home.

Jon & Patty’s recipes originated in their home. They wanted to cook for customers the same way they did at home.

They developed a restaurant theme: fresh, healthy, creative, affordable, bistro fare.

From scratch, small batch cooking.

Jon & Patty Talese are famous for home-made, fresh baked scones and muffins. Enjoy specialty coffee drinks including lattes, espresso, cappuccino, cold brew coffee, as well as Cuban coffee.
