50 Best American Restaurants near Chadds Ford

“This has quickly become my new favorite spot to eat. They offer unique breakfast specialties like gingerbread pancakes and pumpkin bread French toast, and the food always comes out fast. Prices are reasonable for brunch. One important thing to note is that they close around 3 p.m., so they’re not open all day—definitely plan to get there early. Also, there’s another nearby location called Nudy’s Cafe Glenn Mills, which can be easy to mix up when meeting someone, so make sure you’re headed to the right one.“

“Family ownership taken over by a restaurant group with great results. We are long time residents and abandoned the place pre-covid. Now it's packed and lively and one of the very few later night options in an area where kitchens close at 9:00 pm. It's a large space and they are drawing enough of a crowd that they have set up valet parking. A very nice re-addition to the neighborhood“

“Have loved Hank’s for many years for breakfast and lunch and now love their dinners!“

“Dinner was excellent. Ordered lots on the menu and each was outstanding. The skate melted in your mouth. Tasted like chicken. Lamb carpaccio, pork steak, rainbow trout, ravioli, funghetti. Well worth it.“

“We LOVE Station Taproom. Jack is our favorite bartender, but their whole staff is great! The cocktail and beer menu is amazing, and I’ve never eaten anything bad from there. This is our favorite place to bring friends and family when theyre in town! They always have new specials on the menu, which is fun, BUT…..bring back the chicken bacon ranch sandwich PLEASEEEEE!“

“First time today. We'll be back.“

“Just stopped and got the buffalo shrimp taco and it was EPIC!!! Dave and staff are really great and the atmosphere is spot on. If your near booths corner check them out, also does catering as well.“

“Great food, great beer. Enjoy the changing, weekly variety of chefs specials.

Even after a few years, the food is delicious as ever! Overall it feels like maybe the niche selections have gone away, which is a bit of a shame, but what remains is as delicious as ever.“

“Wonderful food, highly recommend the grilled shrimp and the jerk egg rolls. Enjoyed the lobster Mac n cheese too! Old fashion drink was really good!“

“I love the atmosphere at this quaint spot in North Wilmington. The service and food are the best! I highly recommend.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We came in for a relaxed Valentine’s Day lunch and had an awesome experience. The food and drinks were fantastic. The butternut squash soup was rich and comforting, and the lobster bisque was smooth, flavorful, and felt like a little indulgent treat.

That said, as good as the food was, the service somehow still managed to be the best part of the meal. Attentive without being overbearing, warm, and genuinely welcoming... it made the whole experience feel special and unrushed. Exactly what you want when you’re out for a nice date.

Great food, great drinks, and even better service. We’ll definitely be back. 💚🍲🥂“

“Always wonderful photographing weddings at this incredible venue. Amazing architecture and a super-friendly staff who serve the most delicious food. Highly recommended!“

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

“I haven’t been to DE in a while. Tonight I had a surprise night off so I asked my son if he’d like to have dinner. He recommended a new nice looking restaurant, Roost Kitchen & Pub. I checked out the reviews and was pleased. We had a party of 4 and Ashley was our waitress.

Her recommendations were A1. I ordered the cheesesteak bao bun snack and salmon with broccoli entree. My son and his friends ordered roost burgers with fries. He also got the sweet potato fries with a “marshmellow” dip (delicious). I ended up ordered an additional to go.

I ordered an herbal-sweet mocktail, very good. Clean bathrooms, industrial/city aesthetic black/brick with clean lines, and phenomenal service. We watched a few basketball games and enjoyed ourselves. We’ll definitely be back.

A very nice night back in DE, thank you for your hospitality Ashley!“

“Great spot indoors or out.“

“we love Cafe Americana. we are there at least 2 or 3 times a week. the food is fresh, portions are big and we can't say enough about the team there. they are like our family. I really feel like we are home when we come in every time.“

“Meghan’s was busy when we arrived. Breakfast was brought out to us in minutes after placing our order. Waitress very pleasant and fast. Bacon 🥓, sausage, coffee and eggs were good. Personally I can make way better French toast. Highly recommend Meghan’s. We will definitely be back.“

“Solid cheesesteak at a good price versus some newer places opening up. First time having their cheesesteaks today, tried Provolone on regular roll & seeded roll with cooper, both were solid.

Will definitely get cheesesteaks from here again, recommend if you are nearby and looking for a good quality cheesesteak“

From the relaxed atmosphere, to the friendly and welcoming staff to the absolutely delicious dinner, everything was amazing!

Thank you for a special evening out and for preparing food the way it was meant to be enjoyed. We will be back!“

“Met a friend for dinner last night and everything was absolutely delicious. The salmon sliders were divine 😍, I would definitely order those 100 times. Thanks for a great dinner!“

“Amazing for individuals with celiac and just anyone! My daughter can eat here with no problem. So many yummy options. We love that we don’t have to worry about cross contamination. Highly recommended!“

“Had a wonderful Dunch at Snuff Mill today. Fabulous food, ambiance, and service! Shout out to Dorrie. I was able to get in at 3:30 but starting to fill up as I was leaving around 5pm on a Tuesday!... Definitely make a reservation for dinner! Some outdoor seating with heaters but also saw lap blankets.“

“Went, for the first time, to eat here today. My friend & I both had the black bean burger. It definitely surpassed my expectations & was incredibly delicious.

Keep up the great work !!!“

“I absolutely love the charcoal pit. Been a customer since I was a kid. But what is up with the new French fries?? The fries that you always had before were way better and perfect rather than these new godaweful things. Please change back to the original ones. These SUCK 🤢🤮🤬😡“

“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.“

“the food was really good. I had a new sandwich it was fried shrimp on toast, and my boyfriend has the steak omelet. Our friends had the chicken on a salad and we were all full when we left. Our friends go their a lot. Great service, and great staff. Highly recommend it. Food was delicious.“

“I would normally recommend Six Paulpers, HOWEVER, last night's service was terrible. Not sure what the problem was. We first waited for quite awhile for a waitress, so we just went to the bar to get our own drinks. The waitress shows up, we order our food, and it took quite awhile to get to us. My husband got the French dip and fries, I got the cheesesteak egg rolls. The FFs were cold, greasy and had no taste. My egg rolls were burnt. I sent the FF's back, and asked to see if the chef would like to look at the FF's! She goes OK, but the chef isn't in, just the sous chef! And that was it! 🤣We had to go to the bar for another drink. We finally saw our waitress again for us to ask for the bill! Hope this was just an off night!😬“

“Clean restaurant with fast service and delicious food! I have a severe food allergy which makes it hard to eat at most restaurants. However, they were very accommodating and we had the best server, Amanda, who made sure I was completely comfortable and taken care of. She was so kind, fast to answer my questions, and very knowledgeable. I definitely recommend eating here during your stay and be sure to request Amanda ☺️“

“I loved it at this new restaurant! Full of wonderful food, great prices, and a terrific server. Sofia was kind and as helpful as can be. My friends and I would go back in a heartbeat! The manger was also incredibly friendly. Try it for your next outing!“
