As we head into fall, there are a few restaurants that are working towards opening in Conshohocken and Plymouth Meeting. There are also a few spaces that have traditionally been restaurants available for purchase and/or rent.

P.J.Whelians at the Plymouth Square Shopping Center
The sign is up and the website states it will be opening in late fall.

The Goat’s Beard at Spring Mill Campus
The last we reported on The Goat’s Beard opening a location in Conshohocken was back in April when Whitemarsh Township approved the transfer of the liquor license into the township. We previously reported a September opening based on what was stated during the liquor license transfer hearing, but the outside dining area hasn’t been constructed. We were unable to obtain an update.

The Biscuit Lady at 115 Plymouth Road (#1) in Plymouth Meeting
The Biscuit Lady is opening a second location in Plymouth Meeting, expanding on Its initial location in Philadelphia. The target to open in Plymouth Meeting is in October.

M&M Dim Sum & HK BBQ Restaurant at 6 East 1st Avenue in Conshohocken
This restaurant has an existing location in Paoli and the space that was most recently Snap Custom Pizza will be its second. They have moved in equipment and there was a crew doing work on the interior this week.

Saigon Noodle at 103 Fayette Street in Conshohocken
This restaurant is opening at the space that was most recently Poke Ono. There is a restaurant with the same name in Philadephia, but we are not sure if they are connected. There has been a lot of work done on the interior. No word on when it is targeting opening.

Café du Coeur was originally supposed to open near the end of 2022 within the Shopper’s World Shopping Center in Lafayette Hill. The social media accounts, which haven’t been updated in several months, now say the cafe will open in 2023.

In 2022, Honeygrow announced a location next to Shake Shack on the outskirts of the Plymouth Meeting Mall. There is a sign at the location, but they have not yet broken ground.

The former Old Mansion House at 641 Old Elm Street was approved more than a year ago to add a deck to the back of the building as part of a plan by restauranteur Evan Lambert to bring upscale dining to what has long been a neighborhood bar. Construction has not yet started on the deck or the interior.

Where you can open a restaurant

Ashley’s Deli closed in January. Since then the building has been sold to the same group that owns Jasper’s Backyard, Catch 101, and WestSide Bar & Grill. Thus far they haven’t shared plans for the space, but we have heard that they are seeking a tenant and at least thus far not planning to open a restaurant themselves there.

Fresco Pizza in King of Prussia is listed for sale, along with the property. This is located just off River Road between West Conshohocken and Bridgeport. Please note it continues to be open until it is sold.

At the Plymouth Meeting Mall, the former Bertucci’s, Elevation Burger, Chipotle (interior), and Zoup are available.

Plymouth Square Shopping Center has a few open spaces.
