Erica Zito and Mary Button's super-bright, super-cute Lola Bean, at 1325 Frankford Avenue (215-634-LOLA), will open to the public this Saturday, Sept. 11. (We first mentioned the café in April.) They'll serve from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. that day and 7 a.m. to 4 pm. on Sunday before kicking off regular hours(6:30 a.m.-6 p.m.) on Monday, Sept. 13. The plan is to launch serving La Colombe coffee and espresso, plus Au Fournil pastries, and then roll out sandwiches, soups and whatnot in the coming weeks.
