Welcome to town!

There is a lot of activity in town lately, so much so that it’s hard to keep up! As you know, Ambler suffered a great loss this past month with the closing of The Shanachie; Gerry, Ed and the whole cast and crew will be sorely missed. Walking in town, […]

A Little Something to Whet Your Whistle

Today was one of those jump up and click your heels kind of day; not only was I able to sit down and enjoy great conversation with fellow Amblerites, but I also had the privilege of getting a sneak peek into Forest & Main Brewing Company! I, along with many […]

And, we’re off!

The title of this post was going to be “On the first day of Ambler’s Holiday Window Display Contest the Merchants Created To Be…” (hopefully you’ve read this in tempo to the tune of  The Twelve Days of Christmas), but I thought that could quickly get out of hand as […]

Julia’s On The Go Deli

Like many, I was thrilled to hear that a new business was opening in Jo Jo’s former space. I’ve been waiting on word for an opening date, yes, peeking in the windows and all, for a few weeks. Yesterday I saw @RachInAmbler tweet a picture of her veggie hoagie from Julia’s and […]
