Irmo, meet pretzels.
The newest location of Philly Pretzel Factory is now open on Broad River Road.
It is the second Midlands shop for the Philadelphia-based chain, which opened its first Columbia-area store on Rosewood Drive last fall.
Philly Pretzel Factory’s menu offers pretzels in a variety of forms: your classic twist, in nugget form, wrapped around a hot dog, stuffed with cheesesteak, baked beneath pepperoni and cheese, covered in salt or smothered with cinnamon. And there are a dozen dipping sauce options, from nacho cheese to brownie batter.
The new shop is located at 7320 Broad River Road in Irmo. It is open seven days a week, from 8 a.m.-7 p.m. Mondays through Saturdays and 10 a.m.-5 p.m. on Sundays.
BEHIND OUR REPORTING
Why we report on business openings and closings
The restaurants, stores and other businesses that come and go in our communities have a direct effect on our everyday lives. Where you’ll take your family for dinner tonight or why your neighbor closed down the family shop — these are conversations you have all the time with one another, and The State newspaper strives to cover the things you talk about and care about.
Reporters at The State regularly drive and walk through local neighborhoods and retail centers to notice openings and closings, check public documents for hints about business moves and — most importantly — talk to our friends and neighbors about what they see, hear and wonder about in the community. Feel free to reach out to our reporters anytime to tell us what you know or ask us what you want to know about local businesses.
