A reader wrote in to let us know that Bustle Caffe now has a new sign outside and wanted to know the scoop (thanks, as always, to readers who send in tips!). I contacted the owner of Bustle to discover that he sold the business and it’s now under new management.

Along with the ownership change comes a new name – S&L Cafe. According to new owner Daniel, S&L stands for Sel & Lumiere, French for salt & light. The goal of S&L is to “serve and love the community by helping people to build relationships one cup at a time” and Daniel hopes to see the S&L space used for neighborhood building events and gatherings.

There are a few changes to the menu as well. The coffee served previously was a traditional Italian dark roast coffee, and S&L now serves a medium roast coffee from Portland-based Heart Coffee Roasters. This particular roast is described as having “smooth, balanced, and complex flavor profiles of medium roast coffee.”

And, as of this past Saturday, S&L is serving ice cream. You can get local small-batch homemade ice cream from the U District’s Sweet Alchemy Creamery at S&L, no need to leave the neighborhood.
Stop by S&L to say welcome, try the new roast, and pick up some sweet ice cream too!
