A sophisticated yet casual restaurant that's our closest, located in a shopping center one mile away. We love the food, but it can be noisy and one option is to eat outside. Pizzas from a wood-fired oven, a range of Italian offerings, and a full bar only one mile away. Last we checked, open 7 days a week.

A popular bar and restaurant nearby in Chadds Ford with an emphasis on steaks and seafood, thus a bit pricier. Located in an historic stone building that dates to the early 1700s, which has been operating as a tavern for more than 200 years. A lively happy hour most nights.
