ARDMORE, PA - Ardmore is seeing a significant coffee and restaurant boom this year! Hot on the heels of the grand openings this past year for Up to Eleven and Blue Pearl Cafe, Ardmore Initiative is proud to share news of a truly stunning coffee shop and bookstore called The Story. The next chapter for Ardmore's food and drink scene starts this Friday!


The Story is a new coffee shop and bookstore - with a social mission of giving back to the community through proceeds from sales. The Story will open this Friday, October 1st at 9:00 am at 45 E. Lancaster Ave, Ardmore, PA 19003, in the former spot of the local 843 VFW Outpost. The renovation is stunning - with very, VERY cool art installations made out of books cascading across the cafe designed by Andrea Cummins-Disbro of Lost Orchid Interiors, plus stunning murals on the ceiling.

The Story is the third coffee shop in a row in one year - and it is part of a string of hot openings for the Best of Philly award-winning food and drink scene. In the past 12 months, Ardmore has welcomed DePaul's Table, Lola's Garden, Dan Dan, Up to Eleven, Blue Pearl Cafe, Autana, and at least four more food/drink openings on the way! The Story carries on this exciting hot streak for the Main Street of the Main Line.
