Best Historic Restaurants in Narberth

We had a wonderful evening, sitting at the bar, eating delicious food, and chatting with Sean the bartender. Would absolutely go back and plan to on our next trip to Philly. Highly recommended.

From start to finish, we felt like we were in expert, caring hands. Even the person who checked our coats had a warm smile. The space is gorgeous (thank you Amanda) and the food was well-conceived and inventive without being show-offy, beautiful and completely delicious. The bay scallops were like a breath of fresh air. Thanks to Chef and the whole staff.

Wife and I came here for my birthday dinner. We arrived about 4:45 and the doors were locked. It was cold so we went across the street to a store to stay warm. A few minutes later the sign was illuminated so we correctly deduced the doors were unlocked. Staff was friendly and accommodating. The don’t seat people until 5 (not complaining, website says they open at 5). We opted to sit near the bar, which was open and serving drinks. At 5 we were seated at a table near the back. Although the place is dark, our table was well lit. We even asked for the table number to request on our next visit. Our old eyes didn’t need phone flashlights to read the menu. Our waitress (Ashley) knew the menu and answered all of our questions. As the restaurant filled up, she had 5 other tables to serve around 18 diners. Two of the tables were pushed together to accommodate a large party. Service was relaxed but didn’t suffer because there were other employees to help out. We ordered drinks which came promptly. We each ordered the Wedge Salad which was a softball sized head of iceberg lettuce, halved and covered with deliciousness. We should have ordered one to split between us. Wife ordered the Pork Chop, I ordered the 8 oz. Filet Mignon. Both were delicious and done to perfection. Of course, the real reason we chose Butcher & Singer is the Lemon Icebox Pie. We opted to take it to go. All-in-all, a great experience. We’ll definitely be returning.

Fabulous meal, with choices of food and wine meticulously explained. This dinner was immediately added to our top ten list of global dining experiences which include numerous Michelin starred restaurants. We highly recommend opting for the wine pairings with each dish, which not only delivered classic selections but also introduced us to wines we will seek out for our own cellar.

As a last minute addition to this year’s holiday celebrations, I decided to treat my daughter to high tea at the Akwaaba Tea Salon! We both had been wanting to visit the Tea Salon and what better time than the present for an impromptu visit! I’m so glad I did! We had such a lovely time at high tea! We were warmly greeted by the hostess, and although we were a bit early, we were promptly seated at a quaint table. Our lovely server, Mekhia(? sorry if I spelled her name incorrectly)explained the different types of tea selections and let us know how the afternoon would unfold. Absolutely everything about our time at the Tea Salon was great! The tea was flavorful and soothing and the food from the scones to the petit sandwiches and desserts were delicious! And the entire staff we interacted with were lovely. At first I wasn’t sure what to think about prepaying, but when were finished and had spent a good time leisurely chatting(90 minutes is actually longer than I thought it was), I actually loved that the whole “check please” was eliminated. And although the gratuity was included in the prepayment, I left an extra small tip because we really did have a lovely time! Looking forward to visiting the Tea Salon again soon.
