Terrain at Styer's  Cafe transports you  to  another world - an antique greenhouse -  and delights with a menu  fresh from local farmers and a talented chef's imagination. It's about the cycle of the seasons and the bounty of the land says Executive Chef Keith Rudolf.
Styer's  history in the Chadds Ford area is sterling - a premiere garden center that consistently wins top honors at the Philadelphia Flower show. A make-over a few years ago brought great additions,  cutting edge shabby chic garden-related items, amazing furnishings and accessories. Very Anthropologie-esque!

Pennsylvania's Pennsbury Chadds-Ford Antique Mall on Route 1 is not just popular with tourists, but locals as well. If I have a pair of earrings that needs fixing, I know which booth to go to, and of course, I am lured in by the many and varied dealers whose inventory changes constantly.
There is plenty of Andrew , Andy, and N.C. Wyeth material but so are there fossils, minerals and gems,  high-style and shabby chic furniture and accessories, vintage clothing, estate jewelry, maps, rare coins and cllectibles, scientific instruments itmes Asian, Art Nouveau, and even Disney.

chadds ford: Time for Mushroom Soup at Mushrooms Cafe - Chadds Ford - Janice Roosevelt, Keller Williams Real Estate, PA & DE - 10/23/10 01:31 PM
One of the things I like about Mushrooms Cafe on Route 1/Baltimore Pike (Hickory Hill Rd) is that it is so close - it's a fun stop if you are out antiquing, stopping by the Chadds Ford Winery or visiting the world renown Brandywine River Museum, home to generations of artists or Longwood Gardens.

Look for the "mushrooms" sign next to the Brandywine River Antiques Market, this is a place for some local flavor and great expresso. Right now the speciality is mushroom soup and if you know anything about our area, you know that everyone has a recipe for it.

chadds ford: Community Spotlight: Hillingham I, Chadds Ford, PA - Janice Roosevelt, Matt Fetick Real Estate Team, Keller Williams , PA & DE - 09/25/10 03:23 PM
Hillingham I, is a small older townhome community in the Kennett Consolidated school system,  just off Route 52 behind a landscaping business. It overlooks a pond with a walking trail  and couldn't be nicer. Especially because it is so convenient via Route 52 to Wilmington or via Route 1 to Philadlephia, West Chester and Media. It's very close to Kennett Square.
It definitely is a quiet community, with a great neigbhorly spirity, usually a profressive holiday party. No big HOA group runs this, the owners elect among themselves to keep costs down. There are no age restrictions. They have their own community … (2 comments)
