Back to Portfolio

This restaurant resides in the charming and historic Cresheim Cottage in Mount Airy. In an effort to respect the building, we wanted to create an understated space that felt upscale, yet still casual. Many of the building’s existing features were restored, such as the stone hearth and staircase. Period-correct finishes and details were used throughout in a nod to the historic nature of the building. A cozy, custom bar was added to the entry and custom banquette seating and hanging plantings added to the rear atrium space. The second floor houses a private dining room with custom millwork and a lounge space with a staffed charcuterie station.

Working with Morrissey Design + M Architects has always been an absolute pleasure. James and his team are right on point, expedient and always prepared to listen. Their design work has been a hallmark of our execution in bringing to life what the team has provided. In my residential real estate practice, Morrissey Design has successfully worked with many of my clients. I consider James and his team to be a vital part of my design arsenal.
Christopher Plant, KISMET Chestnut Hill and KISMET Spring Arts
James has a true pulse on the community at large. He always works his projects as if he has a stake in its success and listens to our true intentions for what is created, not just how.
Chef Al Paris, Paris Bistro
When working with James and his team at M ARCHITECTS, and MORRISSEY has been a pure on-going pleasure. He is a true visionary. I asked for a modern country feel for my Japanese-themed restaurant space and he has hit a home run with his design and layout. James understands the importance of building a relationship with my investors and me to ensure complete satisfaction with clear communication.
