Best Seasonal Restaurants in Chadds Ford

Dinner at White Dog Cafe Glen Mills tonight was AWESOME! We had two family friends with us, who are husband and wife, and have had been going through a rough time after the loss of their son, so this was a good escape for them. Anthony was our waiter, he was fun to talk with as always! For drinks, Mom had water, Dad and I had soda, and our friends had Cokes, one diet and one regular with lemon. For appetizers, Mom and Dad ordered the Squash Bisque, with roasted pumpkin seeds and chilli oil: they really enjoyed it as always! The wife friend and I ordered the French Onion Soup, which was served with sourdough bread, Swiss, and provolone cheeses. It was yummy! For the main course, Dad ordered the Koch Farms Hot Turkey Sandwich, which had whole roasted turkey, cranberry-orange chutney, and herb turkey gravy, served on white bread, with a side of plain fries. It was like Thanksgiving dinner in a sandwich! He liked it! I ordered the White Dog Double Cheddar Burger, with just cheese and grilled red onions, and without the Green Meadow Farm Smoked Bacon Mayo, bibb lettuce and tomato, served on a brioche bun with a side of fries. We also ordered a side of the Roasted Brussels Sprouts, which were served with Pennsylvania maple dressing and bacon. They were so delicious, I took the rest home! The husband friend got the burger with everything. and a side of fries. The wife friend got the same burger but without the brioche bun, and a side of fries. Mom ordered the Vegan Cheese Burger, her favorite! It had double smashed patties, vegan cheddar cheese, caramelized onions, adobo steak sauce, romaine lettuce, and mushroom "bacon," all served on a sweet potato bun with a side of fries. She enjoyed it! dessert, Dad ordered two scoops of vanilla ice cream with chocolate syrup, and a cookie on top. Our friends and I ordered the Vanilla Bean Crème Brûlée, served with a shortbread cookie on top. The new manager, Dan, was very friendly. Thanks for dinner! See you again soon!

We loved our private tent meal. Atmosphere could not have been better - unique, intimate, beautiful. Will say that there were many menu items that were out and therefore unavailable to us. This happened the last time we came to Terrain as well. Two entrees we had planned to order were sold out. The wine we chose was also unavailable. As was the dessert we had selected. This was disappointing. The food we ended up with was delicious. Hopefully the problems with inventory will be remedied - we will be back to try again.

Had a good time with good food and nice atmosphere.

I think there may have been a substitute chef last night. Our boiled potatoes were hard, even after we sent them back the first time. They had the texture of steamed turnips. The order of fried Brussell sprouts served looked more like a bowl of charcoal. I was surprised they were even brought to the table. On the good side, the order of steamed Brussel sprouts was perfect as were the meatballs and eggplant parmigiana.

We had a great meal—we forgot it was BYOB but that was okay. We ordered hummus that never arrived but we were so full by the end of the meal it didn’t matter anyway. We weren’t charged for it. Really really good food!!
