Restaurant Announces Plans To Replace Herwig’s

With Herwig’s Austrian Bistro set to close on May 25, a Philadelphia-area pizza restaurant has announced it plans to move into the location.

Snap Custom Pizza will open at the 132 W. College Ave. storefront, according to posts on the restaurant’s social media accounts.

An opening date was not included in the announcement.
