Only had two in last two years at our home, but next special occasion, getting one!!!
My Brother and sister in law brought for the last two years for Christmas dessert.
Both times a delicious Chocolate cake, 1st was all chocolate, mousse too? Last year had some white cream frosting as well, I did like total Chocolate one best and will order that one for sure. I could of eaten two pieces a day for a week, it was a large cake too. I am now trying to consider an excuse to just get one!!
2. Coppertown

When I have my quarterly appointments in the Downingtown area I always add a few extra minutes just to make a special stop by Coppertown to get one of their great hot lattes. It is well worth the few extra minutes to run through their quick drive-thru for that extra shot of caffeine to start the day off.
The service there is always top-notch and they remember repeat customers so most of the time they will just ask, 'Your usual?' That's great service!
The only issue would be getting into the location across traffic during the rush hours. Usually a nice person will let you cross but sometimes it may require a wait.
So if you are in the Downingtown area and need that extra cup of coffee just run trough Coppertown and get it quick! You will enjoy the rest of your ride with a smile!

My wife and I go to this restaurant quite regularly because it is within walking distance to our house and has the best Italian food in Downingtown. We were there on a Thursday and I got the veal part and my wife got the penne with vodka sauce.
We started off with the bread and the small salad that comes with the meal. My veal was done correctly and was tender the spaghetti that comes as the side was very good. Her Penne was outstanding. The portions are large and we both took home about half of what we were served.
Service is attentive a, not a long wait for the food, but you could end uup waiting for a table as the walk ins sometimes have a 10 - 15 minute wait.

I've been to this restaurant twice. Both times the service and food were very good - once was for breakfast and once for lunch. If you want to go somewhere with a nice, informal atmosphere, try it out; you won't be disappointed.

Food was good, service was good, wait was long. We came with a group, so we didn't expect to get seated quickly, but we watched as tables opened up that could have been used for us get used for smaller groups. The response was "we have a system". Unfortunately, the "system" doesn't include accurate estimates, as our wait was nearly double what we were told (i.e. 40-45 min in the middle of a Saturday afternoon turned into about an hour and 15 min).
thankfully, the service was quick once the order was placed. Our server was attentive and friendly. The food was good. Nothing jumped out as "wow, you just have to try this" but nothing was sub-par either.
I'm not a beer drinker, so can't comment on the beers, but people in my group enjoyed it.

Excellent as always. Great food at very reasonable prices and it is a BYOB. This is our go-to for fine dining for special occasions. Service was very good.
My wife had the charred Spanish Octopus, the Lobster Ravioli with Saffron Creme Sauce, and their Chocolate Tart. I had their Point Judith Calamari, which has a subtle heat, the Halibut entree and "Apple Pie with Ice Cream". Great textures and tastes.
The total for our meal came to $129 with the tip. A great value for us.
We will be back - we come here to be amazed.
8. Wegmans Market Cafe

I come here fairly regularly for lunch, plus I grocery shop with my husband in the evening. I love Wegman's and I think it's spoiled me for every other supermarket around. Great atmosphere, great food, eat-in, take-out, great variety of products. The Wegman's brands are just as good as name brands, if not better. Because they've built 'The Pub Restaurant' inside most of their stores, you can also grab some beer or wine while you're here, unlike most grocery stores in PA because of the state's archaic liquor laws. The stores are clean and bright, too. My only complaint: the salad bar keeps going up in price. It's $9.49 per pound as of today. Most salad bars in the area are about $7.49 or so. Grocery prices are great, though.

We are a small, family run restaurant using ingredients and recipes from Greece. We try to stay away from the frozen food, the pre-made and pre-prepared food as much as possible, so we are not the typical restaurant in Downingtown. Since we are different in this way, we have to make certain sacrifices that other restaurants don't. First, typical of a homemade restaurant, we might not always have everything available that's on the menu. Also, when we get busy (usually Friday and Saturday nights) it tends to take longer to get served. We make these sacrifices in order to keep our food fresh and our customers happy. If you have any questions regarding anything at all, even some reviews, you can call us at 610-269-1304 or 610-269-1143. Thank you!

Thank you for an outstanding evening !
We were celebrating our anniversary and couldn't find a better place to be. We like the Greek kitchen and have been very spoiled on our trips to Greece. Needless to say, we had somewhat high hopes and thankfully were at the right place.
The restaurant is on the small side and given we were there on a weekday ( somewhat empty ) I can only imagine how crowded it will get on the weekends !! The atmosphere was great, as they have nice decoration and the subtle Greek background music was helping the ambiance. The restaurant is a BYOB, but that didn't stop us from bringing out own wine and Ouzo...
The starters were plentiful and awesome in taste - we had some real nice "flashbacks" to our trips to Greece and I can only recommend to have the wine leaves and the octopus. I did have the hot peppers, but omg, they were not kidding - they were hot !! As for the entrees. My wife had the Orzo w/ shrimp and really is a fan of Orzo - that said, she loved it ! My choice was the Gyro w/ Tzatsiki and I devoured it as if it was my "green mile" meal.
The entire time, we were waited on with friendly smiles and quick turnarounds and I have to say, the father and son team there left an impression, we will never forget - as you can tell... We exchanged stories of Greece and the Cultures and were treated, as we were almost family. A real Greek experience !
I can recommend this place without any non-constraining complaints ! A+
We will be back !!
Best regards,
Christian & Andrea

Needed several pizzas for a family function on NY Day. They were hot and ready when promised. Not cheap - $80.00 for five pizzas. Pepperoni pizza was covered with pepperoni, mushroom pizza was loaded with mushrooms. Sausage pizza was generously covered with sausage.Yummy. We'd go here again.
