In way-southern Chester County, there’s a charming new BYO where you can savor peppery fried oysters, grilled Pocono trout and local portabellas stuffed with local cheese, while your dining mate has … chicken fingers? That’s right: While the food here is easy to enjoy, it’s the impressive kid’s menu that caught our eye; unlike those at many other fine dining establishments, it doesn’t treat your tot like an afterthought. So the kids can have $2 apps like the whimsical Fire Ants on a Log (celery covered with peanut butter and cranberries) or a pint-size buttermilk-ranch-dressed salad, followed by sliders of Chesco grass-fed beef. And hey, if you just can’t steer them away from those chicken fingers, at least both the main event and the honey mustard sauce are homemade, not freezer-made. Insider tip: Before your wholesome meal, stop by the Herr’s factory for a tour. It’s a quick 20 minutes down Route 1.
