CHESTNUT HILL, PA (September 25, 2023) – Char & Stave, the local roastery and full-service café-by-day, cocktail bar-by-night helmed by Jared Adkins of Bluebird Distilling, is thrilled to announce the much-anticipated launch of its new location in historic Chestnut Hill (located at 8441 Germantown Avenue). Adkins and team will celebrate the official Grand Opening on Friday, September 29th – National Coffee Day. The grand opening will kick off with a ceremonial ribbon-cutting at 8 a.m.


Char & Stave Expands With Second All-day And Late Night Coffee And Cocktail Destination

The bar and coffee shop boasts an inviting and airy design, with a long bar and coffee counter, an intimate gathering space adorned with custom art, plus a robust retail area with specialty beans, merch, and a bevy of Bluebird Distilling spirits. While similar to the flagship Ardmore location, Adkins worked with the design team at True Hand Society to lean into an upscale cocktail bar ambiance that caters to the community’s need for a late-night destination. The Char & Stave Chestnut Hill location will be open Monday through Thursday from 7 am – 11 pm; Friday from 7 am – 12 am; Saturday from 8 am – 12 am; and Sunday from 8 am – 11 pm.

"The Chestnut Hill community embraced us at our holiday pop-up, and it is a natural fit for our brand expansion," said Owner and Founder of Char & Stave and Bluebird Distilling Jared Adkins. "We’re going to bring killer café programming during the day in addition to being the community’s only late-night cocktail bar."

To commemorate National Coffee Day on September 29th, visitors can stop by both Char & Stave locations for complimentary 12 oz. hot drip coffees made with Char & Stave’s Everyday roast. From open to close, guests can walk out with one complimentary 12 oz. serving per person. Cash tips for baristas are highly encouraged.


Ann Nevel Retail Advocate of Chestnut Hill Business District, commented, “When I saw Char & Stave in Ardmore, I knew immediately that it would be a great fit for Chestnut Hill as well…it will be clear that Char & Stave has been well worth the wait."
