If the run of new restaurant openings in Montgomery County is any indication, patrons are as hungry as ever to resume the post-pandemic treat of dining out. The Philadelphia Inquirer’s Michael Klein profiled four new restaurants open locally to serve them.

Catch 101

101 Ford Street, West Conshohocken

This cozy seafood spot replaced a former eatery and kept much of that entity’s bar, lounge, and booth seating, and smart dècor. Executive chef Hilary Hamilton runs the kitchen.

Harvest Seasonal Wine Bar

Providence Town Center

51 Town Center Drive, Collegeville

Dave Magrogan’s upscale farm-to-table concept has replaced the casual, sports-themed  Champp’s. The interior has a bright, roomy bar; plenty of plants; and an open kitchen.

The Pullman Restaurant & Bar

39 Morris Avenue, Bryn Mawr

This romantic nook by Roni and Jennifer Hammer rocks a retro rail theme. Live music plays in the lounge, on Tues.–Fri. evenings.

Sauce BBQ

1003 East Main St., Norristown

Norristown-raised chef Tracy Pressley Sr. fires up his Southern Pride smoker for pork ribs, chicken, brisket, pork tips, smoked wings, and burnt ends.

Still in Development

Cafe Le Jardin, a BYOB in Audubon, is working toward a June opening.
