An artisanal pretzel shop called Pelzer’s Pretzels is opening this Saturday at 10 am at 724 Sterling Place between Bedford and Franklin, according to the owners. Husband and wife pretzel-making team Leon and Barella Kirkland already sell pretzels at Smorgasburg and Union Market, and they were so successful that they started leased the Crown Heights storefront during the winter. The store will sell fresh-baked pretzels in a variety of flavors, Philadelphia regional snacks (we hope that means Tastykakes), coffee and soft drinks, according to their press release. There will be limited seating in the shop. The store will initially be open from 7 am to 3 pm weekdays and from 10 am to 6 pm on weekends. GMAP

    da’fuq?! sounds like a crapshoot on this low-traffic stretch for this type of joint. but I wish them the best, and since I live nearby, i’ll even try it just to say ‘I ate artisanal pretzels this weekend’ and see jersey coworkers’ disgusted reaction.
