Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in Northwest Philly

First time here. Had a night out with friends and wanted to try someplace different. This place was a great pick on my opinion. It has three bars, an upstairs, a downstairs dining area with a fireplace and the “backyard” where a guy was playing guitar and singing. The staff was very friendly and the food was on point. All four of us enjoyed our dinners and the overall experience. I would definitely recommend to others and plan to return at a later date for another fun night out.

Food was excellent! Our first time and Kurt, one of the owners made sure we had everything we needed. He explained nothing is bought frozen; everything is freshly made in house. I had homemade pasta and my husband had trout; we loved every bite! The drinks were also really good and again a lot of house made liquors. Our waitress was absolutely wonderful and we will definitely be going back. A MUST TRY!

Charming re-creation of an English Pub. English Pub food has gotten much better than it once was, and The Dandelion's food was excellent. From the Dandelion salad to the Root vegetable soup to the Rabbit Pie, all excellent. Our server (I regret I've forgotten her name) was perfect - friendly, efficient, professional. Only negative (for us) was the noise level - we ate upstairs during the lunch rush, and it was busy and noisy with energetic conversations with several tables of 6 or so surrounding us, which of course has pros and cons. But still highly recommended. We did not inquire if a quieter table was available - I think it may have been.

We enjoyed our second visit to Hawthornes for brunch. I had a delicious matcha latte with lavender syrup that was well made and very tasty. For our meal we shared the Crabby Dick and Chicken and Waffles. Both were delicious! The crab cake was very good and their potatoes are amazing! The service is also charming - all the staff had party hats to celebrate our waitress's birthday.

Great experience food was amazing. Drinks was amazing. Recommend mango margarita spicy.
