Hipster Home Moving to Bridge Street

Hipster Home, My Fox Philly's Hottest Housewares Store 2007 Award Winner, will have a new home come July 1st.

Says owner David Friday:
---
On July 1st we will be moving our store to a new location at 237 Bridge Street just beneath Wolfgang Books. This new space will give us the space we need to expand into new products, more furniture, and more accessible shopping.

Our goal is to become a strong regional urban store for contemporary home furnishings. We are making strides to become a strong source for designers and architects needing contemporary furnishings to outfit their jobs with quality pieces. We have supplied a large investment firm on the main line with furnishings for their entry and waiting room and are now in negotiations with designers for a W Hotel being developed in Boston. The point is we are moving in the right direction and hope to continue this forward movement and reach beyond our goals.

The store will not change much in our new location, initially, but soon after we are planning on expanding our product lines into more furniture, housewares, kitchenwares and contemporary home audio systems.

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to call or stop by the store (610-917-0121).

Best of luck to David and co. at their new location!

Thanks Jim, I appreciate the post and the publicity. I invite any of your members to stop in the new store and see what we are all about. Being local borough dwellers that love our town I can tell you we are a hardworking, honest business that wants to be a positive influence in Phoenixville. Hope to see you all soon.

Cheers!

Now you can get the latest books at Wolfgang's and modern shelves or coffee table at Hipster's. That's one-stop shopping.

La Crêperie Café Bis Opens

Yesterday, Phoenixville's newest cafe opened. La Crêperie Café Bis, located at the corner of Bridge and Gay Streets at the base of the Gay St. Bridge, opened its doors at 11am. As you can probably guess by its name, La Crêperie features both sweet and savory crêpes which, owner Marietou Fanny says, are made with only fresh ingredients. Fanny also owns a restaurant in Center City in Philadelphia called La Crêperie Café, which has been open for nine years.

La Crêperie is open seven days a week. Hours are Monday-Friday from 11am-10pm, Saturday 11am-11pm and Sunday from 10am-7pm.

Best of luck to Marietou and her staff!

Several Local Businesses Closing Up Shop

Over the next couple of months, three local businesses will be closing their doors.

On Saturday, February 16th, Polka Dots will be closing their store at 246 Bridge Street. The shop, a women's clothing boutique, opened nearly two and a half years ago but has recently found business slow.

Originally, (owner Susan) Randels said that the store was doing well, but that the momentum could not keep up.

"The things that sold in Paoli didn't sell in Phoenixville," she said, adding that some customers thought that the store was too expensive or the sizing did not go high enough (size 12 being the highest size sold). "We tried everything."

Randels also said that parking was an issue for many of her customers who could either not find spaces or did not feel safe parking behind the store.

Polka Dots remains open until the 16th, with hours on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. The phone number is 610-935-5914. Clothing and shoes are bei…
