White Dog Cafe's newest location brings local, seasonal, and sustainable dining to Chester County. The original Vickers Tavern has been completely renovated, and the White Dog Cafe has preserved the building's history while adding chic farmhouse aesthetics and dog-themed decor. The restaurant features seven distinct dining rooms, each with its own unique personality and design. In addition, there is an expansive outdoor patio with a gas fireplace and retractable cover. The open Barn room includes a large oval bar, a sitting area by an open fireplace, and doors leading to the outdoor potting shed. The menu includes several White Dog staples, such as Kennett Square Mushroom Soup, Double Cheddar Burger, Lamb Bolognese, Truffle Fries, and house-made bread baskets from local farms, alongside new additions.

    This is our 3rd visit to this location and it is always happening. Our server, was good, and the food was very good. I have celiac disease (food allergy) so I am 100% gluten free. I had the crab cakes for bay seasonal fries (gluten free). My wife and (2) kids loved their meals, and we of course are now becoming regulars at this wonderful place. Parking can be an issue but give yourself extra time to arrive.

    I am concerned that my credit card was not charged for the total amount including the tip. I called and was told the tip would be charged to my card in several days. That does not seem appropriate.

    Made reservations and requested a quiet out of the way table. We were seated at a postage stamp size table in the threshold between the dining room and bar! As far as the menu, had to ask if they served anything vegetarian. Manager apologized and offered a free dessert. No thank you!
