\SANIBEL — Bennett's Fresh Roast, a popular cafe in downtown Fort Myers, plans to open a second location on Sanibel, a barrier island in Lee County.
Bennett's is known for its unusual fresh-roasted coffees and homemade doughnuts as well as its catchy promotions. Bob Grissinger, a former disc jockey, opened the popular destination in February 2008 and it has become an institution in downtown Fort Myers.
In November, Bennett's celebrated the sale of its millionth doughnut by giving the lucky buyer free coffee and doughnuts for life.
