Lola's Garden In Ardmore on The Main Line

ARDMORE PA - For the outdoor restaurant experts behind Morgan's Pier, Juno, The Garden at Cherry Street Pier, Rosy's Taco Bar, Harper's Garden, River Beer Garden, and Parks on Tap, this is actually the very first time owner Avram Hornik and FCM Hospitality will head to the Philadelphia suburbs. For Hornik, this brings his relationship and history with Ardmore and the Main Line full circle after he proposed a coffee shop in the very same spot 25 years ago!

Opening in the red hot Ardmore restaurant scene, Lola's will showcase the culinary skills of acclaimed former Russet Chef Andrew Wood. The seasonal menus will showcase uniquely paired, honest, local ingredients together with small bites, salads, sandwiches, entrees, and desserts that showcase his culinary skills and artistry with a focus on not more than a handful of ingredients on the plate.

At the bar, look for a celebration of all things Pennsylvania with 15 all local and state beers on tap, and an entire wine program with taps and bottles showcasing the state's best selections. The cocktail program will feature more than a dozen draft and hand-crafted cocktails - including new cocktail flights.

For vibes, Lola's Garden is unlike any restaurant that currently exists in the area with a stunning beer and wine garden patio with a giant four-season 2,500 square foot outdoor trellis - and an additional outdoor bar with seating. The eclectic garden setting that will feature lush greenery and flowers, complemented by repurposed and recycled natural materials and found objects, with comfortable and community living room style seating and stylings. Even the inside dining spaces will have the look and feel as if you are in the great outdoors. Hornik, who has become locally famous for his lavish use of natural, vibrant elements in decorating his venues, led the interior design team personally. Like Harper's Garden, look for green-house stylings and all-weather seating with heat and covering during the fall and into the winter.

Lola's Garden was designed with safety and the focus around outdoor dining in mind - with 240+ seats with 140 seats located outdoors on the sidewalk cafe and in the trellis.
