A forty-year history backs the Brickette Lounge as Chester County’s “country music headquarters.” The joint has served light fare along with live country music and line dancing since 1964. Updated since then, the establishment still hosts live country music bands but is now smoke free and includes wireless internet for guests. For an evening that’s without pretense, with friendly service to go with your meal, the Brickette Lounge is the perfect choice. You can always depend on 11 different beers on tap and a menu that serves reliable American fare like pizza, burgers, salads and bar appetizers. You won't find any gourmet surprises, but the price is right, the drinks are flowing, and the entertainment is abundant—shoot pool, listen to tunes on the juke box, or join in on karaoke nights galore.

Don’t let the no-frills ambiance at La Rancherita fool you. This is authentic Mexican cuisine at its best, so what the restaurant-grocery lacks in fancy-pants atmosphere, it makes up for in taste. Enchiladas Verdes, Tacos, Chilaquiles, Fajitas, Gorditas, Huevos Rancheros, Menudo, Burritos – it’s all here, piquantly spiced and ready to take your hungry taste buds on a trip south of the border. This isn’t bland Mexican fare that’s been toned down for middling tastes, it’s the real deal, made from authentic recipes. Pair your meal with an authentic drink like tamarind soda or a cool glass of jamaica, made with hibiscus flowers. Bring cash, as no cards are accepted. Located not far from Westgate Village, La Rancherita is open every day for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
