Best Contemporary American Restaurants in West Chester

Our second time at Little Water and quickly becoming our favorite restaurant in the city. Upon walking in, the hostesses greeted us by name and our server knew of our food allergies from our last visit. From their non-alcoholic drink options to every flavor on the menu, each item we ordered was fantastic and just as good as we remembered from the first visit. The fried sea bass is definitely a star of the show and we have literally told no less than 3 dozen people about it lol. I’m not normally one to leave a long detailed review, but Little Water really delivers a phenomenal dining experience in every way — best food/drink and service/hospitality in recent memory no question!

Great place. A wonderful dinner, great service, comfortable. I’ve been before and will be again. Great food. Good location.

I wanted to be in the midst of plants and flowers and beautiful smells on this winter afternoon. Terrain did not disappoint. I ordered a large, delicious chicken pot pie, my husband had the Terrain burger and our friend ordered the omelet. No one was disappointed. We also shared dessert board, which arrived with a large variety of pastries. Important Note: they serve brunch daily until 4:00!!!! One caution. Come dressed warmly, it can be chilly in the cafe.

Great meal and service, as always! The warm sun shining through on a cold winter day made it a particularly wonderful experience.

Nice surprise. Could stand to have a few more main entrees or change the menus every couple of months. They did a really excellent job with the remodel giving it a little more class and getting away from using just the typical bar menu. The place was packed when I first came in at 7PM but quiet and emptying as I was leaving around 8:45PM. This is not unlike most restaurants ever since life opened up post covid. The employees no matter their job were all friendly and accommodating. The piano music was a nice touch and just the right sound level because it could be heard and enjoyed yet not so loud that you could not have a conversation. Could stand having a few more lower price wine choices. Not unlike most restaurants wine is too high priced. I know that because I buy wine for home use. Something is way off when for a bill your 2 glasses of 5 oz wines cost as much as your meal. It is for this reason that my first choice of a restaurants is usually a BYOB. Had a nice time and I will return.
