Bella Sera Caf� opens in Fishtown this weekend
This Sunday will see the grand opening of Bella Sera Caf�, a new vegan-friendly coffee house at 2146 E. Susquehanna Avenue (corner of Susq and Frankford) in Fishtown. Owner Renee Fuchs attended culinary school briefly before entering the non-profit world with Pew Charitable Trusts. When she delved into veganism she became frustrated that there were very few places in Center City to get her fix (she's a self-described "sweet freak"), so she decided to leave Pew to open her own place.
Bella Sera will be doing organic/fair-trade coffee, tea and hot chocolate, and they'll be carrying a "robust line" of products from the very popular Vegan Treats. (Read Felicia D's interview with VT founder Danielle Konya.) There will also be some snacky stuff from Alternative Baking Company. Fuchs says all her plates, coffee cups, straws, etc. will be made of 100 percent compostable material.
The space, which accommodates around 16, will open to the public on Oct. 25 with a grand opening celebration from noon to 3 p.m.
