Di Bruno Bros. Ardmore
On Saturday, December 6, all five locations of Di Bruno Bros. will host a festive Holiday Cheese Crawl, replete with free food & drink samples – a perfect way to get to know their delicious seasonal offerings and gather great ideas for holiday entertaining direct from their cheesemongers… And, as a final celebration of their 75th anniversary, they will also be giving away $1,939 in prizes (reflecting their first year in business) throughout the holiday season, including a $1,000.00 shopping spree, for customers who share their holiday traditions on social media or enter online at www.dibruno.com/traditions.
The Holiday Cheese Crawl will take place on Saturday, December 6, from 12:00 noon until 4:00 p.m. Each location (Rittenhouse Square, Washington Square West at the Franklin Market, at the Market & Shops at the Comcast Center, at the original store along 9th Street in Philadelphia’s Italian Market, and in nearby Ardmore, PA) will feature different free food and drink pairings, and guests who visit will receive a “Di Bruno Bros. Cheese Crawl Map” that will be stamped by each location they visit.
Cheese lovers are encouraged to visit any two Di Bruno Bros. locations, plus the Franklin (3 total); those who do will earn an exclusively printed, complimentary tote bag with product samples, the Di Bruno Bros. House of Cheese book and other Di Bruno Bros. swag. All crawls must end at The Franklin in order to receive the swag bag.

The family-size loaf is $24.99 and only available during the holiday season while supplies last.

Guests will also enjoy hot toddies and selected snacks from Poco Dolce chocolates and Dumangin jellies. The Franklin is the only mandatory stop on the cheese crawl; all participants must end their cheesy adventure here to receive their swag bag.
