Cafe Lulu is Bay View hot spot on the rise

Café Lulu
2265 S. Howell Ave.
(414) 294-Lulu
Hours:
Tues.-Sat., 11 a.m.-8 p.m.
Wheelchair accessible

What happens when two hard-working women spiff up a former George Webb's and offer some of the most creative sandwiches in the city? The answer is the soon-to-be-famous Café Lulu in Bay View.


Owned and operated by Sarah Jonas and Cameryne Roberts, these two women have spiced up the old luncheonette with a splash of color, fresh plants and contemporary art that give the place an East Side feel.


Homemade soup, fresh salads and hot sandwiches are the strength here. Grilled tuna on a bed of greens with a calypso citrus sauce and fresh mango is a good choice. The sandwich selection changes weekly in quest of determining the café's best. We sampled the Cubano, a Cuban style sandwich that is filled with roasted pork loin, capicolla, swiss cheese, chive mayo and pickles and is grilled between two cast iron pans. Ricky Ricardo is smiling! The Morrocan chicken breast is marinated in a roasted red pepper marinade, grilled and served with a tangy Boursin cheese laced with fresh herbs. The Milano is an Italian style panini loaded with fresh mozzarella, grilled peppers, eggplant and portobella mushrooms all sandwiched inside thick Tuscan breads.

Watch Café Lulu to become one hot little spot.


Bottled beer available.


Inexpensive.

LuLu's is my FAVORITE! The wait staff is very nice, the food is fabulous, they have Hoegaarden beer on tap, and the Spread Trio is fantastic!! I bring all my company to LuLu's when they come to visit. Fair prices ~ Clean atmosphere (minus the cig smoke) ~ Love the rotating local art ~ the bar made of wood doors ~ the list goes on! If you haven't been to LuLu's yet... make plans! If you have been to LuLu's, I know you'll return. Eat it up, yum!

Mary Perot said: Went to your place with 6 other friends for the 1st time. You had a fund raiser for the Lake and a band named "357 String Band" Food was great but the Band Lead singer was so foul mouthed it was embarrassing. Very unprofessional. I had some people with me that like to party and spend money, but we will not be back if that is the kind of music and type of talk you promote. "F" and other vulgar comments throughout. How rude. I hope you take this as serious. Because it is. Thanks.
