| - What a lovely surprise this little stretch of Main Street USA (actually Washington Ave.) has turned out to be. Not only one of my fave restaurants is here in Bridgeville ('Burgh's Pizza & Wings), but now a new favorite coffee/sandwich shop. This place serves up good coffee and truly good food. I'd been driving around all morning and was headed for Bridgeville when I remembered that they serve lunch here. I've only had coffee here in the past, but liked the vibe, and thought I'd give it a try. The sandwich and salad menu is brief but interesting. I went for a half of the Chicken & Fresh Mozzerella Cheese sandwich on multi grain ciabatta...love that they offer that bread choice, which enveloped the chicken, mozz, roasted red peppers and artichoke spread beautifully; hearty, but not overly so. The artichoke spread was wonderful...a bit garlicky, but simple enough to just nicely enliven the other ingredients. With chips and a pickle the half sandwich was enough for my appetite, which lessens as the temperature goes up, and it's 90 degrees out there today. As I mentioned, I like the vibe here, which is casual yet friendly. Really, I could sit here all day listening to the James Taylor they had playing at just the right low volume. LaBella offers bagels, quiche, oatmeal and muffins for breakfast, and they have a nice selection of pies, cakes, cookies and pastries. They have brewed coffee, espresso, fruit tea smoothies, blended iced coffee drinks and frozen hot chocolate this time of year. If I lived within walking distance I'd be here every morning.
