I am a fan. My wife and I had a date here a couple weeks ago. Although the bench seating was slightly uncomfortable, I could barely notice as I was completely consumed my the gaze on my beautiful wife. we had the shrimp appreciate which was very tasty just wished there was more than 3 shrimp! And the brócoli app was our favorite item from the night with the egg yolk in the middle. I believe it was a salad actually. In any event it was delicious. We shared a large portioned fish and chips. Everything was great, had a good time and will likely be back to try other items on the menu. read more

Always great service. Super nice team of folks. We've had various dishes over a number of visits. And everything is delicious and on point!

Disappointing start to finish. Rude hostess. Food mediocre. Service poor. Music way too loud. We will never go back!

I just love this place. We went for the first time last night and everything was perfect. The bar is a bit small... maybe 10 seats? So you should probably get a reservation if you're coming on the weekend. The restaurant portion was spaced out pretty nicely. And of course they have the adorable porch to dine outside. We tried the beignets which were amazing, then my husband had the letty burger and I had the KFC sandwich. First everything was cooked perfectly. The KFC sandwich had sooo much flavor. The burger was really good too!! Definitely will not be passing this one by again. read more

Finally got a chance to check out Letty's. Had reservations and were promptly seated. Our waitress was knowledgeable on the specials and cocktail list. Not a huge beer selection but they had various styles and a few locals. Had the cheese selection which was excellent. For mains I had the Cubano which was spot on and my wife had the Cavatelli in mushroom ragu which she said was tasty. Staff all around were attentive and we even noticed them bring a child who was sitting outside with his parents a blanket when he was cold. All in all an excellent place and I wish we tried it sooner read more

Stopped in Sunday afternoon for a drink. Bartender introduced me to green chartreuse to sip with my beer, the wife had a properly crafted coffee cocktail. Top notch bar knowledge and service. Kitchen closes for menu change over in the afternoon, a standard for fine dining. Despite a closed kitchen the owner went back and made me the best pizza I've had in kennet square! Pizza had the crispiest crust, quality cheese and well balanced sauce. Amazing first visit, I will be back! read more

Really enjoyed this local gem. Excellent service and really tasty food that won't disappoint. Menu was unique with craft cocktails.

The mushroom pizza was great. The drinks were good, as was our server Kristin - even on the busy mushroom festival Saturday. The mushroom soup was good. We enjoyed the live music. We were disappointed with the cheese board. The amount of cheese and bread were quite small for $21, I wouldn't recommend. They need to rethink the option. read more

I absolutely love the atmosphere at Letty's Tavern. It is always lovely and relaxed. The food is always great and they have interesting adult beverage options. The servers are always friendly and helpful. This is a great place to go after book club at the library since it is right across the street read more

Had dinner at Letty's this evening with my wife and friends. We are kind'a foodies. My buddy and I cook often and well so appreciate good fare. We'll, Letty's brought it!!! We had the beignets, WOW. Baba ghanoush, phenomenal. Mushroom pizza, literally best I ever had. Pastas, OMG!!! My advice, go there!!! The only problem is we live in Winchester VA read more

Service is really terrible. No eye contact by servers. Very indifferent to their customers. Second time here and is not getting any better.

We went for dinner based on the recommendations we read here on Yelp. We were very disappointed to say the least. The menu is very limited. The drinks are very expensive ($14). The scallop dinner ($21) came on a plate with THREE scallops and few slices of shaved zucchini. It looked like an appetizer, not a dinner as advertised on the menu. The steak ($30) came with TWO small fingerling potatoes and ONE piece of broccolini and the steak was over cooked. Fish and chips was mediocre and also expensive for what you got. We will never go back. read more

I have been here twice and loved it. But came back last week and the menu contained basically two items a hamburger and a Korean burger with a flat iron steak. They didn't even have a Chardonnay. I was very disappointed. Sometimes I think we expect too much but I don't think I would go back at this point. read more

The food was delicious, especially the gnocchi! It needed to have bread to soak up the sauce though! Service was good. Portions are on the smaller side but still filling. Good drink options. We chose to eat outside and the chairs were a little uncomfortable. read more

Horrendous. Upon placing an order, we were told of two different dishes that were out of stock. This should have been told to us when we sat down so we would've known this when trying to choose from a very limited menu Ordered an IPA was given a hard cider. Took it back to the bar and was told oh well sometimes we change the taps around. Ordered a poached pear salad for $22 and the salad came on the size of an appetizer plate. Left hungry. Also, the place was very cold. Would never go here again. read more

Mushroom soup looked hastily prepared with a purée texture ( a kennett staple) Simple things like iced tea were unavailable Ended up getting white pizza which was ok Service 7 out of 10 food was a 2 read more

Two stars means "could have been better" per Yelp, which is exactly what our experience was. Our party of four was greeted promptly and we were shown to a lovely table in the corner by a window. It was explained to us that only two menus were available and as soon as another table finished with theirs, she's be back with two more. Before ordering, the waitperson came over to let us know that no pizza was available. This wasn't a problem as we were there for Sunday brunch. She then took our drink order, but apologized that they couldn't make a Bloody Mary. Two of the four of us liked their entree selection, but the others of us were disappointed with our "breakfast sandos." On the menu it was described as a "house English muffin, egg, white cheddar, etc." When our sandos arrived they were on a large brioche, which is quite different from an English muffin- much more bread and not easily eaten by some - us included. When we asked why the change, we were told the "menus are old." After some initial confusion as to why we may have not been OK with the change in bread, our plates were returned to the kitchen and brought back a few minutes later with the replacements on English muffins. But by that time the egg, white cheddar, etc. were cold. Oh well. I hope your experience will be better! read more

Randomly stopped in the bar for some drinks and snacks. Crispy cauliflower was awesome, fresh and unique! Margarita was made with mezcal and delicious Everything made from scratch!! Will definitely be back. read more

Love their pizza! Especially the burrata. Great seasonal side salads (got the gem salad and cucumber small plate with corn, pickled red onion and chili oil). The front patio is very inviting with its hanging flower baskets. A great spot! read more

So my family just got dinner at Letty's Tavern on their opening night and it rocked. We recently moved from West Chester because the college vibe kinda overwhelmed the whole scene but we were missing the restaurants there big time. Most of the restaurants we've been to in Kennett Square so far were on the stuffy side and served food that I haven't eaten since the 80's. Their drinks were garbage too. Letty's restored a historic house and redid the whole inside. Looks great! The servers were attentive and could make credible recommendations on the menu. The food was ridiculously great and had inspired spins on traditional food like an Asian style fried chicken sandwich. The drinks were strong, modern and tasty. The owner's partner was the Pastery chef so we tried the cake and was moist and yummy. My wife and I were dueling with our forks over the last piece. The owner (Jacob) stopped by to all the tables and checked on how folks were doing. Love to see the passion of a new business owner who really cares about his customers. Ballsy for them to open with COVID still killing business left and right. Show this dude some support and enjoy a kick ass meal while you're at it. read more

Ownership and bartenders are fantastic. Pizza is exceptional. Excellent atmosphere that will make you feel right at home. High highly recommend. read more

I came here off of a recommendation and it did not disappoint. The cocktail menu was incredible and detailed! You can also tell these guys love Chartreuse. The Short rib was cooked perfectly and melted in your mouth. You also HAVE to get all the breads *mushroom tops the list though*. The corn pizza was fabulous, and the key lime pie was so delicious and tart. Huge fan. Cannot wait to come back. Love that the owners regularly walk through out the restaurant. read more

VERY Disappointed! Incredibly slow service. An hour and 20 minutes after we were seated we were finally served our meals. And that was after we were told they were out of about 1/3 of all of the menu items! And the excuse of "oh, it's a scratch kitchen" doesn't fly! If you can't plan to have enough inventory on hand for Fathers Day you have no business being in the restaurant business! To continue, the wine pours were light and over priced....and they were out of several draft beers. The portion size on the cavatelli was embarrassing small and under cooked. And finally, their online menu is not the same as what you are handed when you're seated. This was our first and last time there. read more

We ordered the Thai camarones and they gave us 4 shrimp for $18. We walked away with over $100 bill and were not full. They really should put on the menu that the shrimp for $18 ONLY comes with 4. This is the most appalled I have ever been at a restaurant... read more

We were in town because we were visiting Longwood Gardens. We stopped in afterwards for dinner. I was worried because the people infront of us had reservations and the restaurant seemed busy. I didn't realize that reservations were recommended. The hostess was very nice and said she could move some things around and get us seated. The restaurant vibe was warm and welcoming. I loved the fireplace and Christmas decorations. The menu was kind of small and I wasn't sure if my 10 year old daughter was going to like anything on the menu. We decided to get the duck poutine as a starter. It was so good, my daughter actually really enjoyed it as well. Our waitress told us they could also make a skillet of mac and cheese which was not on the menu. My daughter got that and claimed it was the best restaurant mac and cheese she's ever had. I had the eggplant parm pizza which was a popular dish last night, I saw many tables ordering it. I liked it, but it didn't have any mozzarella cheese on it. There was just a small dusting of Parmesan on top. When I order pizza, I want it to be cheesy so that could have been a little better. My husband ordered a burger. It was a little pricey but it was very good quality beef and cooked to a perfect medium rare. The pickles looked homemade and it was on a nice buttery brioche bun. It came with the most delicious and crispy homemade fries. This burger was definitely worth the $20. I also ordered a special holiday cocktail. (Sorry can't think of the name of it) It had vodka and cranberry juice and a lemony flavor to it. It was garnished with fresh cranberries and a rosemary sprig. It even had a couple ice cubes with a cranberry frozen inside, nice touch! The service was a little slow, and the pizza could have been cheesier, but other than that we had a great experience and will definitely come back next time we're in town. read more

What a gem! First time to Kennett Square to visit Longwood Gardens and wanted a brunch spot before our tour. Our table wasn't quite ready as they were understaffed that day, so we sat at the bar and ordered a couple of cocktails. I had the ovc 3.0 which had cranberry juice and a sprig of rosemary. Festive and delicious and the bartender was awesome. We were seated and ordered the boba ganoush which was amazing, an eggplant small plate which was also amazing, mushroom soup which was good, and the broccolini Caesar which unfortunately a bit of a miss as it was just too spicy/peppery for us. The hardworking staff were smart, friendly, and doing extremely well especially given they were a little short handed. Overall, a great experience and I would be a regular if I lived nearby. read more

Don't waste your time. Dinner on a Saturday night. Our experience starts with being told a few items aren't even on the shortened menu. The food that did come out was small and not very good. My husband ordered one of the "specials". It seriously looked like buttered pasta. And for $200 I just had hoped for more. The service was awful. I was without a drink most of my dinner. It finally came after we paid and started to put our coats on. Tip: if you go... and get seated at the table in the front window... ask to be moved. You will spend the evening freezing and watching drunk people get sick on the porch outside. Again not an experience I want for $200!!! read more

Absolutely delicious food and amazing service all around. We came to visit some family from out of town and ordered quite the array of plates, and I simply could not complain about a single one. The chicken wings were deliciously crispy. The fall menu featuring the mushroom ragu was unbelievably yummy with the perfect kick! Nothing beats handmade pasta. I will absolutely be making the drive out here to eat again. Thank you to our server Cara, and bartender Steve for being such amazing workers. read more

Great cocktails (especially the Negroni - the best I've ever had, hands down). Great food - the pizza with duxelles and mushrooms was fantastic. Great bartender. Cozy vibes. What more do you need to know? read more

Amazing food and atmosphere! Super friendly staff. Cozy, tavern feel! We will be back for sure! read more

Too expensive. Fries were amazing, pizza was good but nothing special, chicken sandwich was amazing too. Food is good but $50 for lunch for 1 pizza, 1 sandwich and a coke is way too expensive!! read more

Fantastic food and drinks. This is my second time going there and I haven't been disappointed. Servers are friendly and the food was absolutely delicious. I had the white pizza on my first visit which I highly recommend. This time we did the Mother's Day brunch (not sure if they're offering brunch regularly) and got the fancy version of a bacon egg and cheese breakfast sandwich (I think it was called "pigs in zen"?) which was outrageously good. Def worth checking out. read more

Weird menu. "Pizza" had neither sauce nor cheese. Very small portions at high prices. Tried it bc it was somewhere new but likely won't be back. read more

Great spot and a hidden gem. Food was creative and delicious. Vibe was super cool and don't sleep on the down stairs lounge where you can spin your own vinyl. Highly recommend. read more

So we just ate at Letty's tonight. We ate in the main dining room and it was very cold. Emphasis on very cold. The menu is not very large and least five or six entrees were not available. Very disappointing. The temperature should not be dependent on the day of the week. Perhaps the food shortage is? I don't know but the experience was very disappointing. Probably would not go back. read more

I just love Lettys! From the wonderful owner, Jacob, the skilled bartender and her delicious cocktails, and the chef who puts a different twist on all of the dishes!' Don't miss the burrata, and the beignets! The Clover Club cocktail never disappoints! They did a great job cleaning the old place up and putting their own spin on the decor. Best of all, the prices are very reasonable! You will not be disappointed!!! read more

Food was delicious.I had sea scallops and my husband had fish and chips - both well prepared. Why only four stars? My entree arrived a few minutes before his! I chalk it up to growing pains! With food as good as this, they will get there. Spotted a few pizzas at the bar... they looked amazing so will be back! Don't miss the mushroom toasts... read more

Review is for the bar - great couple of bartenders, cocktails are well executed, ricotta appetizer is really good and pizza is among the best in Kennett. Haven't tried the restaurant yet, but the bar is a nice improvement over the old Kennett Inn. read more

Fantastic food, staff,and owners. Bar staff knows how to make cocktails. Food has been top notch. Owners make the rounds greeting and talking to guests. This has become one of our go to places! read more

This place is great, the bites are incredible and the owner is super nice. Most of the negative reviews were Covid related and out of their control. Don't hate just because you didn't get your appetizer in 2 minutes when there was only one server working. The quality of food and updated menu are the main reasons why we keep coming back. read more
