Simon Pearce - Last Call in West Chester PA

Simon Pearce is in the process of closing their doors along the Brandywine near West Chester PA.

Simon Pearce West Chester PASimon Pearce has been a popular stop for the last decade from it's ideal location along the Brandywine in Pocopson Township just west of West Chester.  Offering fine dining along with its signature glass blowing workshop and retail outlet, it was always an inviting trip for locals and those visiting our area attractions such as Longwood Gardens or Winterthur.

Sadly those days are close to an end.  The workshop and restaurant closed on January 12th while the retail shop is scheduled to close on Sunday February 13.

Simon Pearce Glassware Pocopson Township PA

For the next few weeks, the Simon Pearce shop is continuing to sell their original glass works and are having a 30% Off Sale on all their seconds.  This is a great chance to stock up if you need some extra glassware or decorative items before they leave the area.  They are only closing their local facility, so their items will continue to be available online or through their other retail outlets including the original location in Quechee Vermont.

Simon Pearce is one stop that will be missed by all in the area.
