Kimberton Inn is our favorite dining experience. It offers a variety of foods including steaks and seafood. Truly fine dining at its best. The atmosphere is cozy and the staff super friendly. We visit here once a month.

What a lovely space and fabulous staff! We came with a nightmarish number of kids and infants but were still treated with great warmth and accommodation. The team was clever to give us a great place to sit that also minimized our exposure and noise to other guests. The dishes were fantastic; I especially enjoyed the salmon.

Great historic spot; the bar is second to none in area. In winter the fireplaces are alive. Food is great; most importantly the owner and staff really care about their clients.

We hosted a small private party to celebrate my mother's 80th. The Kimberton team made it very easy to plan the event and they were very flexible about last minute changes to the guest list and plans. We decided on a limited menu but this still gave our guests a good range of choices. The best part- the service! The service team during the event were fantastic. They were very professional and especially thoughtful to honor my mother. Thanks to this team for their efforts- it made our party very enjoyable!
