Very recently it was announced that Rival Bros Coffee would be opening in the former Chiarella’s Ristorante location at 11th and Tasker. As it turns out, a coffee shop won’t be the only business taking over this former Italian restaurant’s space.
The portion of the location with an entrance on East Passyunk Avenue, which was originally the kitchen for Chiarella’s, is set to become the home of a different kind of beverage distributor. Pottstown-based small-batch distillery, Manatawny Still Works, has plans to open a tasting room in this storefront at 1603 E. Passyunk Ave.
