Forîn Café‘s team, Seth Kligerman, Kyle Horne, and Will Landicho, will be expanding into a second location at 2325 Frankford. The new restaurant will simply be called Forîn and is projected to open either at the end of 2022 or in the first quarter of 2023.
Forîn will be what the owners call an all-day cafe and a lifestyle hub. The new location will continue to feature the food and products of such local and regional businesses as Moonraker Coffee Roasters, Onyx Coffee, Darnel’s Cakes, and Kismet Bagels. The hours will be extended, but the space will also be slightly larger.
When What Now Philadelphia spoke with partner Kyle Horne via phone he said that the new location would have a small kitchen and that they will be doing a build-out on the new space. The menu will feature breakfast sandwiches, frittatas, and charcuterie boards, but the biggest difference will be the alcohol offerings.
Horne confirmed that Forîn will offer a creative bar program and will serve and sell their brand of honey wine. The cocktail program will include “craft cocktails tapping flavor profiles from the morning menu — a la ube, pandan, baked peach, and Chaga.”
There will also be an all-new selection of clothing and goods from local, regional, and even international artisans and companies, specifically Horne mentioned products from Europe and vinyl being available for sale.
When asked Horne said that their focus will be on their extremely supportive customer base but they are open to new customers who want to check them out. If anyone wants to come and experience the café, Horne stated that everyone is welcome.
