Sit-Down Cereal Cafes

According to the co founders of Cereality, David Roth and Rick Bacher, Cereality is a "Home for Cereal away from home."

Cereality is the first outlet that sells nothing but cereal. Cereality Cereal Bar & Cafe, which opened its first sit-down cafe Wednesday on the University of Pennsylvania campus, wants to open more than a dozen Cerealities next year on campuses, hospital lobbies, airports and office buildings. Behind the kitchen counter of the store are 30 varieties of brand-name cold cereal. Customers order from “cereologists,” whose most popular mix is two 8-ounce scoops with one of 36 toppings, plus regular, flavored or soy milk for $2.95. Also available on offer are cereal bars, cereal smoothies and yogurt blends.
