Downtown Carlisle Businesses Face Headwinds

Small businesses are the basis of Carlisle’s small-town identity. The local pizzerias, cafes, and bookshops dotted around town provide a much-needed break from the industrial behemoths found in most of Central PA. Peculiarly, the general trend in Downtown Carlisle seems to be that these new small businesses are failing. Apart from a few town classics such as the Hamilton and Market Cross Pub, finding a local joint that sticks around for even a few years seems impossible. Newer establishments such as Grand Illusion Hard Cider and Yak n Yeti are quietly going out of business left and right despite general approval from customers.

Officials announce that Weaber has completed its financial and operational restructuring after filing for bankruptcy in August 2025, and the company has promoted a new president.

It turns the water a sickly green, kills fish by the thousands and gives off a foul odor.
