Pub Crawl a Success!

I have received numerous emails from people who attended the pub crawl yesterday, all of who felt it was a tremendous success. Unfortunately with a newborn at home, I was unable to attend this year but hopefully the organizers of Philly Beek Week, along with those here who helped bring it to Phoenixville this year, will do the same next year and for year's to come.

Thanks to those who emailed me with their thoughts.

Philly Beer fest was a great success and just another great event in our town. I even had the pleasure of meeting the Philly Beer Week organizer and he talked about what a great success it was and he never expected the event to take off so quickly in its first and only suburban town. Phoenixville was their first choice due to the easy access, and proximity to some great micro breweries such as Sly Fox, Iron Hill, Victory, Stoudts. He also mentioned how great it is to see pubs working together as Molly's, Iron Hill, Ryans, and Pickering Inn did that day. Congratulations Pville!

"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 ...
