images-6.jpgWest Chester has it all, right? We have everything from little mom and pop shops to internationally acclaimed chocolatiers. You name it, we have it - coffee shops, pubs, small and intimate restaurants, big and expanding restaurants, rooftop bars, anything! Well, almost. With all the foot-traffic that this little city sees, it’s a wonder we don’t have one already . . .

A market! According to a friendly voice on the other end of the phone, Ardmore’s favorite Carlino’s Specialty Foods is opening up shop in West Chester sometime this summer. When pressed for a more definitive date, none was given - hopefully, sooner rather than later. Carlino’s Market, an authentic Italian shop, will be within walking distance at their new location of 128 W. Market Street, amidst our bustling town. They offer homemade dishes to-go and carry out trays of pastas, pastries and pizzas, as well as their market filled with fresh cheeses, meats, produce, fruit, and imported Italian specialties.

We do know that they will be supplying food for this years’ Up On The Roof event with the Business Improvement District (BID) on Saturday, June 2nd, from 7:00 pm to 11:00 pm on the Rooftop of the Bicentennial Garage - (20 South High Street in Downtown West Chester). Click here for more info.

No Comments So Far

Comment Guidelines
Be Respectful. Do you kiss your mother with that mouth?

Although the old saying, "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all," is swell, we encourage constructive feedback (ie, be polite), and recommend backing-up your comments with evidence/witnesses.

Be Honest. Look where it got Abe Lincoln. Well, before the evening at the theater.

We don't recommend complaining just for the sake of it (see number 1), but if you have a legitimate comment, it should be shared. Also, don't hesitate to disagree with other comments, even if your opinion is in the minority. If patrons aren't honest about their experiences, restaurants won't know that there is room for improvement. And there always is.

Be Specific. "The food was good" doesn't cut it.

Each dining experience is unique, so if a dining experience moves you in any way, by all means, share the details. Choose the sensory details that impacted your experience the most and describe them in your postings. Other foodies will gobble it up—literally.

Be Concise. 'Nuf said.

What? We thought it was pretty clear the first time.

Be Helpful. Sort of like how the elves and reindeer help Santa.

Will what you have to say improve the restaurant's ability to provide impeccable service and improve the dining experience for others (again, see number 1)? If so... help away.

Show a Little Pride. No Jane or John Does please.

If you are too embarrassed to put your name as the commenter, you probably should re-evaluate your comments (you know the drill... see number 1). If you have sensitive information that you feel needs to be passed along, please use your best judgment and e-mail it to us to avoid public posting. We don't want you to have any post-post regrets.

Don't Name Names. Let's not get too personal here.

We know you want to share your experiences, both good and bad, but this isn't the place to publicly condemn or praise individual people. Feel free to comment on "the service", "the chef", or "the staff", but any positive or negative mention of specific names will be moderated.
