Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in West Chester

Our server Brandon made our experience exceptional. He provided us with food and drink recommendations and did not steer us wrong. Two of us at our table immensely enjoyed the Romarin specialty cocktail. Four of us shared three hors d’ouevres - the charcuterie, the mushroom tart and the crispy artichokes along with the beet salad. The serving sizes of each were perfect for the 4 of us to share. Our water glasses were continually refilled and the service was excellent. Two at our table had the Saturday special - poultry feuillete - an elevated chicken pot pie with mushrooms and black truffle oil. I sampled the special and the sauce was superb! I ordered the Moules Frites and another had the veal escalope. We all thoroughly enjoyed our food, the atmosphere and didn’t feel rushed. The interior of the restaurant was decorated for the holidays and it was a warm, welcoming environment. We completed our meal by sharing the moelleux au chocolat - a warm chocolate cake with hazelnuts and praline sorbet…delicious! I would highly recommend this restaurant for the quality of the food and the inviting atmosphere.

New Woodland Tents are a must-do!! Last year's tents were a fun experience that we happily reserved at least (4) times... The upgraded tents are warm and toasty and add to the food, ambiance and fantastic service that is delivered effortlessly. Perfect option if 1906 ( which is delicious ) at Longwood is booked for a pre/post Christmas nosh.

Had a great meal! First time being there under the new white dog name. I will definitely eat here again. Just a little chilly at the window with a two seater table in the back room, where we sat. That made it a little bit more difficult to enjoy the experience fully since we were cold. I do believe our server did turn up the heat a bit for us. Thanks!! To be fair, the seasons are changing and temps dropped recently, and it was raining and windy. The food was amazing and the place is beautiful, despite being cold near that one window, I would definitely enjoy a meal here again. 

Excellent menu with reasonable prices. Excellent service

We visited Iron Hill at 6pm on a Saturday night and were seated in the dining room. We made a reservation which was helpful because we were seated rather quickly. It was very busy that night and the acoustics in the dining room make it a loud environment when it’s packed. It can be hard to hear each other if you have a large group around you. Our server, Andrew, was down to earth and knowledgeable. He did not rush us and answered all of our questions about the beer and food menu. We ordered a few beers, the hummus appetizer, Margherita Pizza, OMG blt and the chocolate hill dessert. We never received our hummus but Andrew took this off the bill once our main food arrived. The kitchen looked overloaded and so did the staff. Our meals were amazing! I like the twist on the BLT adding the pepperoni with the mozz and pesto-mayo with balsamic glaze. Yum! The dessert - eh, not so much. The brownies seemed old and dry and we could not even cut into them with our spoons. We will skip next time. Overall it was a decent experience with yummy food and a wonderful server. If you’re looking for a quiet location to eat or have someone hard of hearing, this is not the place. Def recommend making reservations on the weekends!
