Best Restaurants with Great Beer in Swarthmore

We sat outside in November. They had plenty of heaters and an open air type shelter. Was quaint. We had a variety of dishes between the 5 of us and everyone loved their meal. Would highly recommend.

Great service, delicious food. The restaurant was not bust, so it was quiet. Our server was amazing; attentive without being g intrusive, made sure we had everything we needed. He was great.

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.

Love the outdoor, heated patio room. When I'm in Philly for business, I commonly take clients there. Relaxed atmosphere and able to have conversations without yelling. Great whiskey selection too.

We ate at the bar. Bartender and manager were a great team, taking care of us. Food and drink options were strong. You could go high end and expensive or not. The environment was lively and fun.
