Melt Shop announced the opening of its newest restaurant in Langhorne, Pennsylvania. Melt Shop debuted in Pennsylvania in 2016 in King of Prussia and the new restaurant will become the brand’s fifth in the Keystone state. Located at 2490 East Lincoln Hwy, in Lincoln Plaza, Melt Shop of Langhorne will celebrate its grand opening on Feb. 29 and will offer free grilled cheese for a year* to the first guest in line on opening day.

Fueling the state’s expansion is Pennsylvania-native and experienced multi-unit franchisee, Drew Smith of Rockham Melt, LLC. In addition to owning and operating five restaurants with Melt Shop, Smith operates 29 Five Guys locations across the greater Philadelphia area. Smith also has plans to develop 17 additional Melt Shop restaurants across Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware.

“We opened our second and third Pennsylvania Melt Shop restaurants in Newtown and Downingtown in 2019 and we’re eager to kick off 2020 with our newest restaurant in Langhorne,” says Smith. “It’s our goal to bring Melt Shop to as many people in the greater Philadelphia area as we possibly can. We’re excited to open in Langhorne and look forward to continuing to expand the Melted Sandwich Movement across the state and beyond.”
