Beauty Shop Cafe (and Former Foobooz World Headquarters) Sold to Farmers’ Cabinet


Jon Adler has sold his Graduate Hospital coffee shop, Beauty Shop Cafe to the team from Farmers’ Cabinet. According to Adler, the Farmers’ Cabinet team plans some cosmetic changes but will continue to run the property as a café.

Beauty Shop Cafe held down the northwest corner of 20th and Fitzwater for six years, overseeing the sweeping changes that have come to the Graduate Hospital neighborhood. The coffee shop was a must stop-in spot for politicos, publicans, Phillies fans, construction workers, coffee geeks and even the odd quizzo host. When I ran Foobooz on my own, it was also my morning office and the source of more tips and stories than it ever had any right to be.

I wish Adler and the entire Beauty Shop team all the best.
