Rocco’s Wood Fired Pizza coming to South Heidelberg

A new pizza place is scheduled to open in Sinking Spring. Rocco’s Wood Fired Pizza is moving into a vacant space in the Sinking Spring Plaza near the former Shurfine grocery store. The restaurant’s website lists April as the opening date. No menu has been posted yet, but the restaurant is advertising as a BYOB.

Former Lubrano’s Restaurant to become vapor store

The former Lubrano’s Pizza restaurant along Route 422 in Amity Township is being renovated into a vapor shop, according to a sign in front of the building. A “For Lease” sign had been out front since the restaurant closed last spring. In late summer, Woogies Wood-Fired BBQ had announced that it was moving from Pottstown into the location, but those plans fell through. Woogies instead reopened as Smokehouse BBQ and Grille in Limerick Township, Montgomery County.
