Bridget Foy's Debuts With Grand Opening On South Street Following Devastating Fire

Bridget Foy's Debuts With Grand Opening On South Street Following Devastating Fire

Bridget Foy and husband Paul Rodriguez, along with parents John and Bernadette Foy, announces the grand opening of the brand new Bridget Foy's at 200 South Street this Friday, February 12th at 4:00pm. Bridget Foy's is one of Philadelphia and South Streets most beloved restaurants that has served the community for decades since the 1970s. The entire restaurant was lost in 2017 during a devastating fire. After three years of demolition, construction, design, pandemic delays, two COVID shut-downs, a giant snow storm, a East Philly Café Pop-up and limited dining capacity, Bridget Foy's is finally ready to return and make its grand debut overlooking one of Philadelphia's most picturesque corners. The new dining room and bar features a show-stopping gold tin ceiling, striking wood and tiled floors, socially distanced seating, 16 oversized windows and doors opening to the sidewalk, advanced ventilation, artwork by Bernadette and Paul, and other touches of nostalgia and Americana with a light, modern and airy twist.

Bridget Foy Returns To South Street With East Philly Cafe Pop-up Outdoor Restaurant

Bridget Foy Returns To South Street With East Philly Cafe Pop-up Outdoor Restaurant

Bridget Foy will return to 2nd and South (200 South) for the first time since the devastating fire in 2017 that saw the family restaurant and neighborhood corner hub close down and get destroyed. Bridget Foy's - the new Bridget Foy's - was expected to open as a surprise to Philly this week. However, with indoor dining closing and the pandemic numbers increasing this didn't make sense and as sad as it as after working round the clock this year on top to bottom construction (everything was lost in the fire) they now have pushed the opening to February/March and indoor dining returns - plus outdoor comes back in nicer weather. Today's opening comes despite the snow, as they are eager to get back to work at 2nd and South - and what not better way to celebrate a festive outdoor restaurant then with heaters, hot drinks, covered tables and flakes in the air - plus $5 snow day specials.
