Finale: The Farm and Fisherman on Pine St.
They are space-hunting.
Sunday, May 29 will be the last dinner service at original location of The Farm & Fisherman (1120 Pine St.), Josh and Colleen Lawler's five-year-old BYO in Washington Square West.
The Lawlers said they had simply outgrown their space, a 32-seater with a tiny kitchen.
"We are planning a short hiatus for some family time, and our next step will be to find a space in Philadelphia that allows us to expand/improve what we started at the BYO," Josh Lawler said in a message thanking customers, vendors, farmers, and employees. "Philadelphia has been better to us then we could have ever imagined these past five years."
And if you have a burning desire to open a restaurant: The Pine Street location is now available, at a $4,250-a-month asking price. Joe Scarpone, former chef-owner of Ulivo and Sovalo, is the broker with MPN Realty. Details here.
