Restaurants in West Chester

“Fabulous food - six course tasting menu, and fabulous rustic setting with free parking. This place is a winner. I took a carnivore and he thought this was one of the best meal he ever had. I can't wait to go back.”

“Great food and great people”

“Fun environment, nice crowd”

“Yummy food and great service! nice friendly people.”

“Absolutely hands down the best Steak and Cheese sub and the Italian Hoagie!! Fresh and made to order. I would drive 2 hours to order these subs again. The subs were so delicious and fresh order 2 ex large to bring home! You gotta try! The staff is so nice and welcoming!”

“Food came out very fast. Atmosphere is very nice and cozy. The food alone was amazing and very fresh every time we go. The pasta dishes are better than most if not all of there other restaurants in wc. You can tell when effort is put into every dish and the chefs put full effort to make every bite as good as the last.”

“Delicious food! The best pizza and chicken cutlet sandwiches!!”

“Always exceptional food, service, atmosphere & an added bonus if Marty is your server?. It’s our #1 eatery in West Chester for many years & appreciate their excellence . A delicious & wonderful dining experience . Highly recommend chicken parm, chicken limoncello, calzones, or any of the amazing specials.”

“I saw a friend walking out and she highly recommended it. I went the next day and was not disappointed! The staff was incredibly helpful when we had no idea what to order! Highly recommend the Tara latte or strawberry latte with their respective boba!!!! We got a menu and want to make our way through it! If you don’t like boba, the Oreo smoothie was delicious as well! The ambiance inside is very nice and calming as well! I will be back!”

“Best Coffee in Chester County!”

“Yoris made the absolute most delicious birthday cake for my sisters 50th birthday! The cannoli filling was wonderful and the cake was decorated beautifully. Thank you for helping to make her birthday so special.”

“Had my first Roots experience today! The cafe is beautiful, staff is fantastic, and the food is incredible! Cannot wait to go back❤️”

“This used to be my favorite spot. They've gone downhill the past few years. They used to have a variety of good, unique dishes. Now it's like going to taco bell where everything on the menu uses the same 5 ingredients. Now has the feel of a once good restaurant that got mixed up with an equity partner that tossed identity and quality to the side to maximize profits until bankrupting the place.

Original: This is one of my top 3 restaurants. This is one of those restaurants where you can pretty much order anything on the menu and it will be amazing. It's been a little while since I've been there but I often dream of the cocoa rubbed pork chops I've had there a few times. It was mind-blowing amazing. And, this is the kind of place where the sides that come your entree, are just as amazing. I can't wait to go back.”

“Wonderful experience with friends on a Thursday evening. We love the food choices for the 3 course meal. Everyone good was delicious. Thank you. We will be back.”

“There is nothing on the menu you can order and not like. Seriously. Everything is freshly made with locally sourced ingredients, recipes are well thought out and meticulously made with the absolue best combinations. All baked goods are baked daily on site and are the closest you will get to what heaven is. Service is superb. Servers are friendly, outgoing, knowledgeable and go out of their way to make sure you're having an excellent experience. It may be small inside and have a small parking lot but that's the appeal. It's like a little cozy home! Don't let another day go by without trying! It's THAT good! ?”

“First time here. Good food and service! Only 'ding' is alcoholic drinks were weak and, the vanilla gelato did not taste like it but more likely ice cream. Gelato is creamier than ice cream. And it was not a scoop but more like 2 tablespoons. For $3, would expect a little more 'gelato'. Overall, good experience and would try again.”

“Must go and check out this amazing restaurant. You won't be disappointed. Food and service is amazing. And the atmosphere is incredible.”

“First time today. We'll be back.”

“Staff friendly, Great and delicious food. Manje Caribbean Cuisine Has a variety of everything from the Caribbean. I highly recommend this place.”

“Went for a celebration in large room and had a delicious Chicken Marsala dinner. The service was excellent, especially with the large crowd and the wait staff was very, very nice. Would definitely recommend this restaurant!”

“Great spot indoors or out.”

“Omg this place is awesome meet one the people mark very friendly I highly recommend this place wish know this place sooner this great place to hangout and live music first time I’ve been here the food amazing”

“first time at the phenomenal place 👌 good service and good amazing”

“Bar Avalon always delivers! The food, service, and ambiance are consistently amazing. We tried the wine and dinner pairing for the first time last night and were blown away—perfectly matched courses and a knowledgeable waitress made it a standout experience. A perfect date night. We’ll definitely be doing it again!”

“Lovely anniversary dinner with my wife. Everything was wonderful and our server, Nick, was fantastic. Only two tiny recommdations because I am a nutty perfectionist. Instead of the cherries with the foil gras, I would have preferred a cherry reduction drizzle and I would have served the caviar garnish with the halibut in a way that kept it cold. Serving it on top of hot fish warmed it which made it less enjoyable. Still a five star experience and we'll be back soon. This restaurant is just what WC needs!”

“I’m so glad I went with the blackened tuna dish. It was so tasty and the ceviche appetizer was very refreshing.”

“Waited 40 minutes for hush puppies while the restaurant was nearly empty at 3pm. Primary food order came 5 minutes later and my son’s order was wrong. It’s a shame because the food is good. But the service has been so slow both times I’ve been here. They did comp his meal. Just expect to wait a while and enjoy your drinks. Don’t come if you’re in a hurry.”

“Great spot indoors or out.”

“Wow… this place is incredible. Awesome wings that are meaty and they have great flavor choices. I love the Italian herb. Pizza (try the Grandma) Sicilian and NY style are available. Great selection of food with daily specials. We ate outside which is covered by cool sails. Inside seating as well as a separate picnic table section. Dog friendly with water bowls. Pizza stands are empty crushed tomato containers. Super friendly staff Plenty of free parking and they have music on some nights.”

“After living in the borough for 3 years, finally made it here. I was hesitant because the fixed menu intimidated me. Not to worry! All courses were excellent! Service was outstanding. Highly recommend.”

“Stopped past the one in Downingtown today for lunch I had the Birria tacos and the beef Quesadilla the food was very good and refreshing. Made to order. Mimi waitied on us and she was very polite and friendly with a flashy smile. I will recommend. & I will definitely be eating here again :)”

“I cannot rave more about our experience today. The manager Steve returned my call right away when booking for my larger party … it was clear he is super well-organized. Service with Chris was exceptional. Everyone loved the food & drinks ~ plenty of tasty options for vegetarians and folks with Celiac’s. This continues to be my go-to restaurant in WC! Thank you!”

“We called Dia Doce for last minute gender reveal cupcakes.. and they were AMAZING! They were so kind and wonderful to work with and the cupcakes were delicious. They are willing to work with you and give you the best experience :) we will be back!!”

“I come to the West Chester location all the time and it never ever disappoints. The customer service is A+ and they’re such nice people. The bowls are always awesome and they come out on time/early every time. Great store.”

“Muy rica comida y mucha variedad”

“So good!! Small menu but it’s done perfectly!”

“We had a small snafu when we accidentally ordered from the wrong Bravo pizza for our teachers, and didn’t realize until we got there! The owner (sad I didn’t catch his name) jumped right in and said I’ve got this for you! He and his team quickly made us five pizzas, that were out of this world. And while we waited, the delicious smells and freshly made pasta salads made me more hungry than I thought! This will be our new spot to order for special lunch days, whether it’s a good slice of pie, a wrap/hoagie or pasta dish! It’s hard to find great food with superior service and ownership! Thanks Bravo!”

“Great food laid back atmosphere”

“La Baguette Magique is a must stop on our visit from Pittsburgh. We come solely for Paris sandwiches... they are that good. We stopped Friday September 5 shortly after Facebook said they were open, but they were on vacation. I wish Facebook had up to date hours posted.”

“Kudos to Philly Hots for a delicious menu for our Durango IEA kick off party. Unanimously all 60 guests loved their food and were impressed with the quick turnaround. Tom and Kevin were awesome! I definitely recommend “Philly Hots” for your next party. I know they’re #1 on my list for our next event. Thanks Tom and Kevin!”

“Fantastic! Pizza's their name, and pizza's DEFINITELY their game! Made fresh to order, and cooked masterfully by a guy who treated every pizza like a unique work of art. Young lady at the front was very pleasant as well..
Can't wait to go back for more!”

“The staff are very nice and accommodating in addition to the good and fresh food I usually get the beef tacos and love them. I highly recommend this restaurant in West Chester.”

“Best bar around. Good friends, neighbors and non-judgemental. Everyone is welcome.”

“It was very quick and nice service in here. However, my Mac and cheese was hard. I let the server know but didn’t mind paying for it as I ate it anyways because I was hungry. Mike came over and told us he took it off our bill and gave us a free kids meal card :) thanks!”

“I don’t pretend to be a ramen connoisseur, but I know I enjoy the heck out of Rai Rai.”

“Just went for lunch - great place, great service, great food ! We will be back !”

“8 of us were in at Steaks today. What a great experience. Food was amazing but the service was even better. Thank you again”

“Ordered a quiche to bring home (cheese and bacon, light on the onion) and it was fantastic! It was fully baked but I found it better heated for 15 minutes at 300 degrees in the oven on a baking rack because the bottom crust was a little underdone. Lots of raves and served five with seconds for some.”

“Great food, great service, the display case is always filled with cakes, novelties etc. They have more blizzard flavors then most DQ's I've been too. On top of their prices being cheaper then other DQ's in the area they always run sales so I save even more. With inflation I'm always in for a Sale?”

“A while ago i did the beer mile and puked as i crossed the finish line, so i ddnt go there for a while, but that was a mistake. The service is pleasant, the beer is fantastic, and the food trucks are great.”

“Bennys has been my favorite pizza place in West Chester for the past two years. Their pizza is so good and priced well. Their service is also excellent because they are fast and very nice :)”

“Best coffee I’ve had since I’ve been in the USA, and only 2 other coffee shops back home in London that I feel come fairly close to Gryphon Coffee… but Gryphon for me is #1 You will not be disappointed!!! Great atmosphere, great stuff, great food and most of all, the BEST coffee!!! ☕️”

“Try em jawns dey got the best food nd dis onbbbbb ion playin ya should go hit em up”

“Food is always consistently good. We were there a few weeks ago when on a Wednesday. Apparently there was some group in a side room. Our waitress was MIA most of the meal after she dropped off our food. No refills on drinks when we needed it. Then it took twenty minutes to get our check. Everyone around us was also complaining. One waitress for ten tables? It is obvious they were paying more attention to the larger party in the side room. . They need to hire more waitstaff. It spoiled the outing.”

“Best hoagies and sandwiches”

“Mikes Pizza has been a home away from home for me for over 25 years. Their Mikes Special Italian Hoagie and Cheesesteak are hands down the best I've ever had. I always order a basket of fries to accompany my meal, and they never disappoint. But it's not just the food that keeps me coming back. The atmosphere at Mikes Pizza is warm and welcoming, and the staff treats me like family every time I walk through the door. From the friendly banter to the personalized service, I always feel right at home. I still remember when they had their pin ball machine many many years ago. So much fun. Each time has been a memorable experience. I can't imagine finding another restaurant that could ever replace the special place that Mikes Pizza holds in my heart. If you're looking for delicious food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere, look no further than Mikes Pizza. You won't be disappointed.”

“Good for sushi or Japanese cuisine lovers raw and cooked options, only disappointment was looking for a bento box maybe a future menu addition. Scale of 1 to 10 a solid 8 1/2”

“We stopped by today for lunch. My wife wanted stir fry. We were certainly surprised with how good the food was. Also our waitress was super friendly. Place is very clean and quiet. Lunch special is in a boxed shape container that is perfectly portioned”

“The Aunty and Grandma are really nice. The Italian Special and Roast beef hoagies was pretty good. My mom loved the pumpkin flavor ice cream.
Legendary bee Attached :>”

“The EXACT type of Chinese food I’ve been searching for in this area, reminds me so much of the style my family used to order for takeout when I was younger.

Reasonable prices, great portion size, delicious taste, and fast service!

We ordered the Vegetable Lo Mein (and asked for tofu in it which they graciously added), Steamed Dumplings, and Sesame Chicken Combo (which comes with Pork Fried Rice and an Egg Roll). Everything was under $30 and super tasty, highly recommend this place!”

“I wanna start off by saying their horchata comes in a Hugh jug which is great!!! Very flavorful nice and sweet. Al pastor tacos had tons of flavor and very juicy!!! Homemade tortillas for sure. Rice and beans also had a lot of flavor… Inside the restaurant it’s self is very bright and spacious. A lot of parking on street and a parking lot. The only complaint I really have is the tortillas them self’s are just a little grainy as it’s expected since it’s homemade. Besides that place has great Al pastor tacos.”

“we have gone here for many years. always delicious.”

“The owners are friendly and hard working and the pizzas are always made to order and delicious. I would highly recommend. Excellent selection, fresh produce, nice service, well priced and cheerfully entertained while waiting ;) 👍👍👍👍🍕”

“Pretzels are always fresh and hot, the party trays are always a hit.”

“Found Mayday on Instagram before it opened and I felt like the piece of the west coast I was missing was finally arriving locally. Literally a dream of mine: a coffee shop with west coast easy bright energy, plants & niche gifts, flowers, cozy. And the whole mental health origin of the name … 🫶🏼. Just truly one of my favorite places to just be. And every one of us loves it! My husband loves the egg & sausage sandwich and our girls love the hot chocolate and vanilla beignets. The s’more iced latte w/ oat is 🤌🏼. Definitely a must try. ☕️”

“I am excited to share my experience dining at Patelmos Pizzeria, specifically their Cup & Char Pizza. This pizza has become my go-to order, and I cannot get enough of it! The Cup & Char Pizza is truly unique and bursting with flavor. The crust is perfectly crispy and the cheese has a delightful tanginess. The cup and char pepperonis are arranged beautifully and add a delicious kick to each bite. The restaurant itself is cozy and inviting, with a friendly staff and a great atmosphere. I have tried other items on their menu, and each one has exceeded my expectations. Overall, I highly recommend Patelmos Pizzeria to anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience. Whether you are a fan of traditional or unique pizza toppings, Patelmos Pizzeria has something for everyone. Thank you, Patelmos, for consistently providing high-quality food and service!”

“Went to Riggtown for the first time in 25 years and it’s still the best food in West Chester. Family owned and operated since 2000 the owners are very hands on and very friendly. Eric, the owner with his wife Dana, are very personable and their service couldn’t be better. Highly recommend this place. You will not regret it!!!”

We got two burgers (with fries each), onion rings, a milkshake and a drink for only $22... can't beat that.”

“Great menu and fantastic service!”

“Most Delicious West African Food, menu includes vegan options, pescatarian options, and gluten free options.”

“Best Tocos in West Chester! Was hesitant at first because Al pastor at restaurants is usually disappointed, but I was not let down. Only minor complaint, is they could double tortillas for the tocos, and skip the thin paper that individually wraps around the tocos, cause paper started to fall apart too easily and had to make sure it didn't rip and fall into the food. I'll be back!”

“Some of the best coffee around the owner is an absolute delight to work with definitely recommend stopping in”

“Amazing service! Megan is simply a dream to work with when organizing a large order! We placed a huge order, Megan and her team were in touch along the way and also helped pass out the delicious lunch to everyone! Excellent job!”
