The saying “good things come in threes” was evident on March 13 as the Oceanside Chamber of Commerce celebrated a trio of ribbon cuttings — its first such events in 2021 — to welcome new businesses to the neighborhood.

The businesses were FrameBar Company, Brown Bag Express and The Pretzel Stop.

FrameBar, at 2894 Long Beach Road, focuses on eye health and aims to serve the community and provide and educate patients about eyecare. Their goal is to “help you see better.”

Brown Bag Express, at 3114 Lawson Blvd., is a grab-and-go style deli, where everything is made fresh in-house and ready to go without a wait.

The Pretzel Stop aims to be more than just a pretzel store, but also an experience. In celebration of Women’s History Month, Hempstead Town Supervisor Don Clavin and other elected officials recognized owner Carolyn Vella in recognition of the shop.
