Our Story

Come by the Café & say bonjour to the owners, Amanda & Arthur de Bruc, the new French kids on the block, delighted to be part of the Chestnut Hill community! Arthur grew up in Paris but is originally from Brittany, France – (his family still living in the same Chateau since the 11th century!). Amanda grew up in Paris with a French father from Lyon and mother from New York. Arthur & Amanda moved to the United States in 2014, where they owned & operated an award-winning café in Savannah, GA. They enjoy long walks along the Wissahickon River, with their two young children, Grace & James, & their Greek dog Izzy.
