Arts & Culture

Most people visit this area to explore our rich collection of museums and botanical gardens. There are many more, but don't miss Longwood or Winterthur. They are world class.
Brandywine River Museum exhibits art by the Brandywine River School including N. C. Wyeth and his son, Andrew Wyeth. You can even visit the artists' studios.

A lovely small art museum with a fine collection of Pre-Raphaelite art and some nice things from the Brandywine River School. Not quite up to Longwood, Winterthur and Brandywine River, but nice.

If you want to see how the rich really lived in the 1920s, this DuPont mansion is amazing. Gardens laid out after Versailles and a bowling alley in the basement. Reminiscent of Great Gatsby.

Food Scene

Buckley's is a local watering hole with a bar and casual eats. Not as good as it once was but a fun environment for a Buckley burger and a drink. Sit in the bar if you can!

If you are looking for a beautiful drive or bike ride in horse country and want a pint to top it off, do not miss this place--it is as close to an English pub as you can get without crossing the pond.

Not a restaurant exactly unless you book 12 months prior, but good lunch and a fun environment. Fresh scones and assorted baked goods for breakfast. You can also get yummy gourmet dinner dishes to take out, great cheeses, elegant desserts, coffee, soups and sandwiches.

Sit outside or in the bar (the restaurant has zero atmosphere) and enjoy some good Italian foods and reasonable prices.

A sophisticated yet casual restaurant that's our closest, located in a shopping center one mile away. We love the food, but it can be noisy and one option is to eat outside. Pizzas from a wood-fired oven, a range of Italian offerings, and a full bar only one mile away. Last we checked, open 7 days a week.

A popular bar and restaurant nearby in Chadds Ford with an emphasis on steaks and seafood, thus a bit pricier. Located in an historic stone building that dates to the early 1700s, which has been operating as a tavern for more than 200 years. A lively happy hour most nights.

Sovana is probably the best restaurant in the area. The food is consistently great and the atmosphere lively and fun. If you want someplace a cut above, this is it.

Terrain is best known as a high-end garden shop created by the Anthropologie folks, but the cafe is terrific for lunch or dinner. Fresh ingredients and an attractive setting. 15 minutes up the road on Route 1.
