Past Present Future
15 Lancaster Ave., Ardmore

"The array of giftable items (I like to gift myself too), many made by American artisans, is nothing short of amazing. Fabulous works in ceramic, wood, and glass; there are lamps, clocks, boxes, handbags, scarves, shawls, picture frames, tableware, vases, pillows, and a large collection of jewelry. It is an awesome collection indeed, unlike anything you will find in the entire region.
Customer service is great, with free gift wrapping. Pre-covid, I used to wander in there for a long time, there is so much inventory and everything is interesting. Recently, with Covid in the air, I needed a wedding gift and the owner emailed me photos of items matching my interests. They will also work with you via Facetime. I love this store"

Styche
57 W. Lancaster Ave, Ardmore
"Quality of the clothes and service to alter garments and deliver to home."

"Great variety of fresh fish and seafood along with prepared foods. Friendly customer service."

Wax Hair Wax There LLC
28 E Montgomery Ave #405b, Ardmore
"This business belongs to my Daughter, Tirzah E. Wilson-Foote. She has overcome many obstacles to arrive at this point in her life. Becoming a teenage mother to rising above being molested by a family member for so many years. This is personal and painful information, so I pray she doesn't mind me sharing her story, for she has come a long way. She is now the proud mother of two wonderful boys and the wife to her adoring husband Chris. Her clients sing her praises for how personable and professional she is while being friendly, gentle and thorough. As her mother, I am so very proud of the woman she has become. I truly pray you choose my Daughter. Thank you."

Jack McShea's
34 Lancaster Ave., Ardmore
"Adapting quickly to an online ordering system, creating great menu specials on certain days, and generously offering free delivery to local regulars within 2-miles."

Make Your Mark Barbershop
2606 E. County Line Road, Ardmore
"Friendly to all, very welcoming, good prices for a premium hair cut and most of all, you feel safe in there during the pandemic."

Bella Italia Pizza
12 E Lancaster Ave, Ardmore
"Bella Italia was quick to ramp up their online ordering during the pandemic and to overhaul their operations. Seats have been moved outside the restaurant for when it's warmer, and the space created indoors was used to turn the regular windows into pickup windows. Oh, and their pizza is phenomenal."

The Head Nut
2408 Haverford Road, Ardmore
"Long history providing wide variety of dry goods priced well, knowledgeable staff, efficient check out, forthright owner."
