Have you been to Springfield Mall lately? 👀

We hear it all the time...

🗣️ "I haven't been there in years!"🗣️ "I didn't even know it was still open!"🗣️ "Where exactly are you located?"

So we made a quick video tour to help you find us!

The mall has changed, but there's still plenty to explore, and we're proud to call it home. The Hangout Crafe is located on the LOWER LEVEL, where families can enjoy food, crafts, desserts, activities, and a place to simply hang out.

Whether you're a longtime mall shopper or haven't visited in years, hangout with us !

The Hangout turns 3 🎉🤭

Three years ago this week, we were preparing to open the doors to our very first location in Morton, PA.

We had big dreams, lots of ideas, plenty of nerves, and no way of knowing what the next three years would bring. We simply hoped people would show up, support us, and believe in what we were trying to create.

What started as a small snack bar quickly became so much more.

Over the years, we’ve celebrated birthdays, graduations, accomplishments, and milestones. We’ve met amazing families, made lifelong friends, watched children grow up, welcomed new babies, and even gotten to know your pets. We laughed together, cried together, and became part of a community that we will forever be grateful for.

There were challenges, setbacks, long nights, and moments when we wondered how we would keep going. But every time, this community reminded us why we started.

Today, three years later, we’ve grown into something bigger than we ever imagined. While we’ve moved on from our original Morton location, we’ve carried the heart of The Hangout with us every step of the way.

Now located at Springfield Mall, The Hangout Crafe continues to evolve, grow, and create new memories. But no matter how much we grow, we’ll never forget where it all began.

To every customer, friend, family member, employee, supporter, and child who walked through our doors over the last three years—thank you.

You helped build this dream.

You are part of our story.

And as we celebrate our 3rd birthday, we’re excited for what comes next.

You are invited to Hangout with us this Saturday to help us celebrate 3 years 🥳

⚠️Sensitive Content – Please Read with Kindness

This post is not intended to judge anyone. It is simply meant to spread awareness and remind us all that sometimes a small act of kindness can make a big difference.

Today, a young person came into The Hangout, they were alone and told our Host they were hungry and didn't have money for food. Our host came to me and asked if it would be okay to provide a free meal.

The answer was immediate: absolutely.

There were no questions and no need for explanations. We didn't ask why they were hungry, where their parents were, or what their situation was. We simply made sure they had something to eat.

The young person chose to take their meal to go and sat on a bench in the mall to eat.

As adults, we don't always know what someone is going through. Sometimes people are having a hard day, a hard week, or facing challenges we can't see. A little kindness can go a long way.

I posted about this situation because this is the reason we choose to keep showing up even if no customers come in but just for the people who do and for people like our new friend today.

If your child comes into The Hangout with friends and may not have enough for something but all the other friends are ordering, I personally cover the difference when I am there , because whether or not they can call you for the difference, they will not need to while they’re in our community!!

We are a family-owned business that believes in community, compassion, and being part of the village that helps raise and support our families and children.

It takes a village and we are proud to be a small part of that village.

At the Hangout we always lead with kindness. You never know what someone may be carrying.

Happy Mothers Day Weekend 🤭
I am the mom at The Hangout and also the Energy 😂 and the energy hits every single person that walks In our doors !

I created this space to bring people together — to laugh, create, hangout, eat good food, and feel loved. I wanted a place where families, kids, friends, and our community could make memories and simply… hangout.

So today, receiving Mother’s Day gifts from our customers truly touched me in a way I can’t even explain. 🥹 You all don’t realize how much these small acts of kindness mean to me. I pay It forward everyday In so many ways and I am so grateful. I am so grateful for so many of you all who started as customers and evolved Into family.

To my baby mommas (aka all the moms who hangout) 🤭
I really thank you all for trusting me with your babies. I love when you come in and tell me that the babies requested to come hangout with us🥹

Thank you for supporting not just a business, but a dream built with love, passion, and purpose.

At The Hangout Crafe you come in once and you become family…. We are now accepting more cousins😂

And to some of my most favorite customers… Ms. Deb & Rob & Mom … Thank you for my gifts I LOVE THEM and I thank you all for hanging out with us every weekend❤️
