The storeowner, Rich is a wealth of knowledge and has a pleasant small town demeanor you won't find anywhere else. Rich knows most folks by name, as many of us have been gift shopping here for years. He's been in the business his whole life, as it has been passed down through the generations. It is still known to most as Poor Richards, but has been FP Kolbe for quite some time now. Perhaps it is less catchy than PR, but given that the business is family owned and passed down-the name FP Kolbe is a fitting authentication with originality. There are oodles of candles and home decor. The old hotel building layout lends itself to a meandering browse through rooms, surprised at what is around every corner. The atmosphere is cozy, unlike what you'll feel in big box stores and franchises. Rich always knows what the best deals are in the area on pots and statuary, and his stuff is always priced just right* while other nearby garden supply stores have prices through the roof. Conveniently located next to the cafe, you can get some lunch or breakfast and coffee before or after shopping in the store-without having to hustle and bustle to the next river town because of grumbling tummies. It's prime location on the Delaware River and Towpath because the Byram Bridge is the next house down. So, you can bicycle or walk or run from up or down the river on the path and cross the old bridge over the canal to FP Kolbe where you will be welcomed in to a cozy shopping experience.

Ordered a tuna and a cheese sandwich to go. $22 plus tip. After we were on our way I realized my definition of a sandwich was different from the untrained personnel. The cheese was on bread....nothing else. No mustard. No Mayo, no lettuce. Tuna was the same. Bread was supermarket variety.

THE destination after a float down the river or drive through the countryside. I could spend all day, and all our money, wandering the halls and enjoying the cafe's fare.

This place had so many cool things to see spent about an hour wandering around, if your looking for a place to find yard ornaments or so many other things this is the place.

My wife and I were exploring the area and drove past FP Kolbe. We were intrigued... turned around and went in. You're greeted by an adorable dog (the owner's). We discovered so many (and bought!!!) objects, nic-nacs, artwork! And there's food; Awesome. We had delicious panini, and left with a few macaroons. We will definitely be back!!!

We love Kolbe's. Such an interesting collection of items for the home. Very unique. You can find kitchen items, collectibles, holiday decor, candles, rugs, outdoor patio items and much more. They even have a cafe that makes great coffee and wonderful baked delights. Afterwards we always take a refreshing walk on the canal. Behind their establishment is "River Country " if you are ever in the mood to go tubing! We have, it's great fun!

I came here today (August 17th 2021) with my nieces and my brother and I fell in love, the antiques caught my eye immediately, after walking around the room we ordered my nieces some lemon icees and my brother and I ordered some Arnold palmers. While sitting down near a fish named blue-boy one of the owners came out with their small white dog Duncan for my nieces to give treats to. I plan on coming here more often it’s a beautiful small cafe that from the moment I stepped on the property I knew I would enjoy and enjoyed it is an understatement
