Pratt's Hill of Beans in EHT, NJ is moving
Leave your best memory of Pratt’s Hill of Beans in a comment below.
Going in on Monday night to watch Alex Siniari perform, I found out that Pratt’s Hill of Beans in EHT, NJ is moving.
- All the open mics covered on JerseyMic from this location are now defunct.
- EHT Jamz at Pratt’s Hill Of Beans in EHT, New Jersey
- Alternative Soul at Pratt’s Hill of Beans in Egg Harbor Township
- Storm has been over, and now Alex Siniari’s show is over.
- They might be moving to Northfield
- There is no open mic night this Thursday
Instead, this Thursday you can go to the Doris Jazz Room in Pleasantville NJ for an open mic hosted by Ray Tyler.
Post with pictures and Best Of Pratt’s is in the works. Along with pictures from Alex Siniari’s last Monday night at Pratt’s.

Hey!
We’re gathering as many of the Pratt’s family as we can tonight to say Farewell to the old location. It’s possible that Alex may even be there, filling Pratt’s with beautiful sound one last time. Pat and I will be there doing henna and having tasty beverages. Come join us! Bring friends!
Peace~Love~Henna,

I only went there twice (once for alternative soul and another for Alex’s set), but everytime i was there i had an amazing time. it’s a bummer that they have to move, hopefully everything works out.

There were a lot of memories at Alternative Soul. I went there for over a yr. It was a warm atmosphere (very welcoming). It was a good place to meet people with similar interests. It was a rewarding experience to see it all progress, yet it’s sad that it won’t be held anymore. Anne and Dave Pratt deserve a hand clap and a giant group hug!!

Last night went well. A lot of folks were there playing Quizzo with Dave and having a great time, and we hung out in the tea room with Jamie, Ashley, and Brandon doing henna and getting caffeinated. I will miss the tea room/henna lounge, I hope they’ll have room for me to do henna in the new place.
As of last night, they are looking at a place in Northfield and expect to be open within a month! I’m sure they’ll do wonderful things with the new place.
I can’t wait for them to open!

I’m glad, Drax, that everyone got to see each other. I hope they have room for you too!
Judi, I have to agree; I don’t remember ever being kicked out! (Especially for all the hootin’ and hollering I’ve done)

well this place was always kinda a safe haven for me and my girl friend tiff, when things got really hard in our lives at home we always would come to pratts. we’d be with our friends and i met ALOT of very sweet people with even bigger hearts. they were always there to suport us in our time of need whether it would be advice or just a simple hug. and i can still remember playing my music singing for the first time everybody was so happy and welcoming. ill always keep those memories close as a happy memorie thanks everybody for a great time =)

I’m with Dale. I used to love hanging out at Pratt’s. I’ve been living in Europe, Australia and NZ for the last several years, and never knew it was gone. A sad day

Thanks so much for your kind words! I can’t believe people are still talking about my cafe. I miss everyone and the cafe tremendously; not to mention a good cup of coffee. Our plans to move fell through when our investor backed out, so we wound up mostly selling everything off. It has been a tough two years since we closed, but things are gettign better. Please feel free to reach out to me! I would love to hear from you and I am so happy to say that I have kept in touch with many customers/employees. I am on facebook as Anne Newman Pratt and my email is .

Anne, so good to see you’re alive and kicking. You probably don’t remember me, but I have such fond memories of Hill ‘o Beans. Great people, great conversation, had everything. Glad to see you’re back on your feet.
