UPDATE 2/22/2020: This article has been edited from its original version to reflect the fact that Ella’s Bellas as a brand remains with founder Carley Franklin Hughes. She sold the Beacon location of the eatery to new owners. The brand Ella’s Bellas, however, lives on.

In case you’re walking down Main Street in Beacon, looking for your favorite gluten-free restaurant, Ella’s Bellas at 418 Main Street, know this: The new owners of the Beacon location have just announced a new name for the eatery: Kitchen & Coffee. Kitchen & Coffee isn’t the only restaurant to rebrand after new ownership: Homespun Foods is keeping their name, but changing their logo. (See A Little Beacon Blog’s interview with Homespun’s new owner here.) A Little Beacon Blog first reported on Ella’s Bellas in 2011 when they first opened on Main Street, after the founder was a roving baker delivering to different coffee shops.

With the first pictures of food just being posted to Kitchen & Coffee’s new Instagram account, the Internet is pretty excited about what is being tested for their new menu. Like this Shakshuka Tahini Hummus bowl. The restaurant will remain 100 percent gluten-free and is vegetarian.

Meanwhile, it’s lunch time!
