Business Spotlight: Reads & Company Bookshop

Nestled on Bridge Street in the heart of Phoenixville, Reads & Company Bookshop is a literary haven built by and for book lovers. Founded by long-time Phoenixville residents and friends, Jason Hafer and Robb Cadigan, Reads & Company has quickly become the town’s go-to spot for discovering your next favorite book, engaging in thought-provoking book clubs, or enjoying a meet-and-greet with a renowned author.

The origin of the shop is as charming as its name. Years ago, Robb walked into Jason’s former bookstore with a copy of The World According to Garp in hand, looking for advice. A shared love of storytelling sparked a friendship and, eventually, a dream to open a store of their own. That dream came to life after a successful pop-up at Steel City Coffeehouse showed just how much Phoenixville still craved a curated bookstore experience.

Today, Reads & Company is more than just a bookstore—it’s a community hub. With weekly book clubs on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, author signings, and a constantly refreshed selection of staff picks, it’s the perfect place for avid readers and casual browsers alike. Whether you're in search of a gripping novel, the latest literary release, or a gift for a fellow bookworm, you'll find it here.

What sets Reads & Company apart is its deep connection to the community. Jason brings a wealth of bookselling knowledge and an uncanny ability to help you find exactly what you didn’t know you needed. Robb, a published author himself, offers connections to the broader literary world and a passion for storytelling that permeates every shelf.

If you’re walking downtown, don’t miss the chance to step inside this warm, welcoming space and explore. Whether it’s to join a book discussion, meet your favorite author, or discover your next great read, Reads & Company Bookshop is a Phoenixville gem that belongs on every local’s list.
