I do love this place but am deeply frustrated and disappointed because yesterday I’d arranged to pay for a family members’ wedding dinner. I called ahead to set it up, and was told that the host would call me back. No call. After waiting, I called back and was told I’d have to wait again for a return call. Meanwhile the family members were already there. And when I finally received a callback, they’d finished and paid. The wedding surprise we’d arranged along with other contributors was ruined.
Thanks guys. Don’t know why it had to be so difficult.

Great restaurant with a nice intimate atmosphere.

We had the French onion soup (phenomenal, well done French onion soup) with filet and 6 layer chocolate cake for dessert. Normally we aren't the dessert type but everything else was so good we had to give it a try. The beet salad had a good beet to salad ratio, not overly heavy on the beets but not short on them either. Very fresh.

The historical aspect of the entire site is cool too, they have a kiosk in the parking lot with detailed information of the history of the building and area.

4 Dogs and Marshallton Inn are owned by the same owners and on the same property, across the parking lot from each other.
4 Dogs is casual. Marshallton Inn is fine dining, totally different atmosphere.
Same chef, David, but not the same.
Both are a great experiences and delicious food.

Really nice old building. If you are unfortunate enough to be there there at between 5:00 and 8:00 p.m. This time of year when the sun's going down and you're one of the tubers where you get blasted make sure you have your sunglasses. God they don't have curtains in some areas. They must know the sun goes down the same place throughout the year. Please spend $10 on curtains to make your customers visit better. I don't know if we got the phone totally off night or what but it wasn't that busy and we would definitely not come back. Slow service, food was great for the most part but I think you could get the exact same thing right next door at the four dogs. We thought this place was fancier food like the dueling Kurtz but hamburgers chicken wings seem to be whatever put in the restaurant was ordering. Good bar food with heavy dose of bright sunshine blasting 25% of the restaurant.

Had a phenomenal experience this evening for a surprise engagement dinner. The service was great and friendly while the food was delicious. We were pleasantly surprised by how big the charcuterie board was (4 of us shared it and still had leftovers) and also surprised by how good the blacked chine nachos were. We would all definitely return!

Loved this novel place. Historic and the food was great.

We went for New Year's Eve, and prices were ridiculously high. Food was very good, just overpriced. For example - steak was $75 with no sides. Not sure if it was because of the holiday or their norm. Will not go back for New Year's Eve next year.

We had our own private dining room for my mom’s 70th birthday party which was great to keep my toddler entertained lol. Food was amazing and the service was even better!

I almost don't want to do this because I don't want too many people to find out about it! This has to be the greatest little bar in the Philadelphia area! We sat with Kathy at the bar who made us outstanding holiday cocktails that we've never had anywhere before. If I could give her six stars I would!

We really enjoyed eating Sunday lunch here! I came in for the House Fondue (need at least 2 people for this), however, I ended up getting the French Dip & fries, which were both fresh and delicious.

Parking: Plenty of parking- there's a small park in back.
