Soul Food Restaurants near Brookhaven, PA

“Ashabees catered DVABPsi’s 50th anniversary celebration in Chester PA on Saturday December 6, 2026. The food was exquisite. The escovich fish and the collard greens were perfect. My Jamaican mom loved the food and she is usually picky about food she did not cook. Thanks Ashabees for contributing to the success of the Delaware Valley Association of Black Psychologists’ anniversary celebration.“

“Firstly, Ya'll getting 5 stars just for being OPEN AS ADVERTISED! I can eat collard greens everyday and usually I make my own but I was out and at work and decided to try to find some. This was the third establishment I went to based on Google but the first to be open on a Saturday. I am so glad this is where I spent my money because I was far from disappointment. They were the best greens I've had from an restaurant. I'm just mad I didn't get two. I wanted to come back Sunday! I will be back and intend to explore more of the menu.“

“I’ve ordered banana pudding from LindaLicious for the second time today. It was absolutely scrumptious; rich and without it being too sweet. It’s an absolutely must-get for your holiday desserts!“

“It is very seldom that I leave a review or comment but IT WOULD BE SELFISH OF ME TO NOT SHARE THIS GOOD OL’ FOOD. The soul food is bomb, I had the Cheese steak rolls, Cabbage, and butter corn) and the African food was just how I like it , a little spice but not to much to were I couldn’t not enjoy it (Potato Greens and Rice). If you are in the 69th street, Darby, south west area and have not tried JC Afrosoul food, then Please get there now !!!! S/o to the owner Christina and her Husband for showing me of the top female djs some love @DjDiorCartel !!! I will be back .“

“If you are in a hurry, this is NOT the place to go. However, if you want authentic, DELICIOUS SOUL food, this IS the place! Fried fish and chicken are on point! The greens, yams, string beans and potato salad taste like grandmom's. If you go after two, you won't be able to get the potato salad. Just a heads up! There's only one waitress and she's a Senior so don't expect fast. Friendly, clean and family oriented.“

“I ordered fish, wings, mac & cheese and sweet potatoes. I say YUMMY. 😋 Thank you for the delicious food.“

“Great place to eat. Friendly atmosphere and great people“

“I had such a great experience at this bar! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting perfect balance between lively and comfortable. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made excellent recommendations. The drinks were well-crafted, not watered down, and you could tell the bartenders take real pride in their mixology.
I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending it to others!“

“First time ever at Carlettes hideaway. Sistahs In Transformation met there and I'm glad 😊 to be apart of these group of ladies. The food was absolutely delicious 😋 OMG I couldn't believe it. I will visit very soon shemasmiles“

“I can't wait to try this place, it's right out of a Sienfeld episode only with a Cajun twist with an old black lady. What was that movie were an old black lady plays Jesus? Such stark reviews, a bunch of 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ reviews from people that were actually patient and let the lady prepare the food the way she does it. Then a lot of 1⭐ reviews from butt hurt Karen's that are all upset because they actually have to wait and their time is so precious. Leave the lady alone and go have your Popeye's or Chick fil A. This cook/chef what ever you want to call her uses wholesome fresh ingredients unlike the other restaurants that are slowly poisoning you. I find the restaurant on an app call Seed Oil Scout. I would highly recommend it, you can find the healthy restaurants where ever you go. Can't wait to try this establishment. Do yourself a favor, be patient and help a wonderful person. God Bless.“

“Omg I was so hungry so I said I would give it a try i know that Pam use to cater for us at Kimberly Clarke.. I had the fish and Chicken wings ate myself silly..her staff Ms Fatine love her was so glad too see her. Omg if you haven't you need too get there, the best I mean the best. I will be back .Thanks so much“

“So the ladies at the back are great. They don't speak much English, so if you go speaking English they won't really understand. But, the man in the front speaks English.

Now the man at the front he appears nice, but I think he makes up prices based off how he is feeling at the moment. Because I normally get the something each time I go. Down to the size of the platter, and the food in the platter. So the price should be the same, because I get the same thing each time I go. Some days I pay $18.00, some days I pay $20.00 and recently I paid $22.00. When I asked him why it was a different prices, he got very spicy with me. That was the last time I went there.

My boyfriend is Haitian, so the next time I go back he will be with me. If he can't go with me I won't be go.“
