Cozy, brick-walled cafe with a local bent for housemade microbrews & breads plus other light bites.
"Tried Hands is the brainchild of Jean Broillet IV, who had long been inspired by the farmhouse ales of Belgium and France and would perfect his craft at Weyerbacher and Iron Hill. Inspired by the latter's brewpub model (and after a few business classes at Wharton), Broillet opened his Tired Hands Brew Cafe in the quiet suburbs of Ardmore in 2012. With beers like HopHands and SaisonHands (and bread baked in-house), it was an immediate smash hit for both locals and those from afar. Accolades, like a James Beard nomination, would soon follow. In 2015, a second brewpub, Fermentaria, was opened just down the block, serving tacos and the lactose-laden “milkshake” IPA that Broillet has become famous for." [foodandwine.com]
