    Our lunch was very good. We were seated quickly. Our server was lovely, very attentive and efficient. The food was all delicious and nice sized portions. The only ding is that the avocado BLT had little to no avocado on it. We’ve had this before at the Wayne location and there was plenty of avocado then. All else was very good and we will return.

    We met a friend at the White Dog. The room was bright and charming. Out seats were cozy and comfortable. The food was excellent. Desserts were outstanding! Our server was attentive and responsive to our requests. It was an enjoyable lunch and is a great place to have a get together with friends.

    We usually go to another White Dog location. This was our first time at this location in Haverford. We liked this location a lot. The space is larger, tables aren’t as cramped. Food and service is excellent. Lots of parking spaces outside.
