Update on the South Main Street Cafe

Received an anonymous tip today regarding the South Main Street Cafe, first mentioned here. Says the reader:

---
A sign has been out in front of South Main Street Cafe for about a week now. "8-16-08 opening at 6AM, serving breakfast and lunch daily."
...
I've been in it. Very nice. Yes - there are a few counter stools, as well as doubles, quads and I think booth type tables if I recall.

The South Main Street Cafe will be located at 119 S Main St which used to be the home of the Moose Lodge and more recently Destiny Brewing.

Had a good and most reasonably priced breakfast. I noticed on the back of the menu that they will deliver lunch and breakfast to Phoenixville business owners. Nice touch.

They'll deliver to just the business owners? That's odd. What about the employees? The only businesses in Phoenixville it seems are restaurants anyway, so I doubt they'd want food delivered to them.

Sorry there, I didn't type correctly. They'll deliver to businesses. Hope that didn't confuse you too much... Try to get downtown once, maybe a haircut or pick a gift up for someone. The non-restaurant businesses outway the restaurants. Have a shirt dry cleaned or pick up some flowers.

"Have a shirt dry cleaned"? LOL! Salon Fiber? Where did they relocate to anyway? They had a great location and a hip building, but are now in an alley I believe. Snippity Do Dah is gone it looks like too, with the old lady Park Avenue Salon moving into it's building. Let's face it. Downtown Phoenixville is primarily restaurants and bars. Hopefully more 'businesses' will move in to make it more like West Chester. West Chester has everything - banks, non profit organizations, for profit corporations, nice stores, etc. to go along with their bar and restaurant scene. Restaurants are nice, but only go so far.

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.

Barry Cassidy Addresses Downtown Rumors

Today's Phoenix ran an article written by Barry Cassidy in which he addressed the various rumors that have been circulating regarding the immediate futures of several local businesses. He paints a much rosier picture than some of the comments here would have you believe. From the article: --- On Monday someone came in and told me Molly Maguire's was closing. I knew that was not correct because they are expanding, not closing. Then about 20 minutes after than I heard from someone else that 101 was closing and the building was going to become a McDonalds. I knew that was not correct either. Marietu' Fanny from the crepe joint at Bridge and Gay called me and was upset that she heard someone at the business association meeting say she was closing... She went on to tell me that they were doing well... Then I heard probably the most outrageous rumor of all... Ellie's Choice is closing. Now think about this one, folks. Here, Ellie has been here for a long time, she was here ...
