Nice and clean interior, guy at the counter was not helpful nor was he rude. He didn't really care and was just there. My thing is, how are you a Pennsylvania establishment, close off to Philly, yet you can't make a Philly cheese steak properly? That's a whole embarrassment. I don't see this to ever be a thriving business. Portions are weak, flavor isn't there and overall an experience you want to put behind you. I was really hoping to write a positive review but I can see why it was nearly empty and every patron on the street didn't give them a second look. They get the 1 star for being clean.

I found the caesar salad to be decent and when requested that dressing and cheese come on the side, it was no problem. The famous kennett square mushroom soup is too intense.

The only thing that really WOWED me was the butter that came with the croissant. I can eat that whole thing by itself. Very creamy with a hint of zest. Yum! As far as the croissants was concerned, some tasted like it was stale. The pork schnitzel (4/5) entrée was pretty good. I didn't care for the sausage and gravy topping though. Would've been better without it. Anyway, the mashed potatoes were creamy, buttery, and airy. The greens were garlicky and kind of salty. Grilled chicken Caesar (2.5/5) salad was okay. The dressing lacked in a lot of ways. More citrusy and less saltiness from anchovies. The mushroom bisque was a little grainy. Would I care for coming back? Maybe. Not anytime soon though.

Great flavor & creative plating. Pricey, like everything else on the menu. ***It cost $15 for a Paper Plane in a rocks glass. 2.25oz of alcohol for $15, served incorrectly, kinda stung. The average cost of a cocktail from the menu was around $18, so I guess I made out like a bandit. ****Another classy, imaginative interior marred by a neon sign. The rest of Two Fourteen was beautiful & sultry. The neon sign had a cheapening effect. I felt almost mocked by the bright pink sign that spelt out "good vibes only." Again, I think the prices are making me a bit resentful. I can admit to that. I don't think I'd return to Two Fourteen again if I was in the area, but can see the appeal if I lived in Media.

Run don't walk! Actually run from a very far distance to work up your appetite for their Handcrafted Sandwiches, Bowls, Tacos & Quesadillas. Very generous portions. All absolutely delicious and worth every penny. We ordered the Rocky Balboa, the Luv & Comfort, Bob Marley Bowl, Birria Tacos, Cubano Quesadilla, a side of fries & handmade juices from the fridge (definitely try the juices!) The layers of flavor & spices were spot on. Not only is the food delicious, the laid back atmosphere keeps your attention with whimsical decor.

I always want to support a business in my hometown. I was excited at the idea of this place being…read moreas great as reviews claimed, but my experience (after $64) was not at all what Yelp reviews led me to expect. First, after one taste years ago, I will never put a batter-dipped fry in my mouth. This foodstuff creation of reconstituted potato, cornstarch, flour, and God knows what else, is an insult to foodkind, and to customers. My husband read reviews raving about the fries and assumed a place making "craft" type sandwiches would have handcut fresh real potato fries. No! So about $15 wasted there. I'm sorry to say the cheesesteaks were overwhelmed by cheese, and I could barely taste the roll, while the meat was texture rather than flavor. So disappointing. I was extremely hungry after a long day and not ready to jump up and cook an alternative dinner after $64 in takeout that reviews promised would be great. I honestly could not stomach this thing because it had like 1/2 lb cheese on it. The American (we ordered the old standard which I'd hope would be flawless) was so consuming of the meat it was one big goopball. I honestly cannot rate the meat because it was that overpowered by cheese. And sorry to go on but there's more! This American was not great quality. It was a bit elastic, certainly in its goop-factor, like the blob when it congealed with the meat. I can feel it sticking to my insides. Could not finish it, was desperately hungry but did not want to finish that. I was honestly insulted that this was served to me as sustenance. It was super junky, The egg rolls? Got cajoled into those from reviews too. Just like the cheesesteaks, exact same taste except soggy in the plastic-lined container by the time it got home (need vents for that steam). Just so disappointing to spend that much for what we got and not even want to (nor physically be able to) finish eating it. I'd be more generous with pity stars or you're-in-Media-so-here's-an-extra-star if they hadn't cost so ridiculously much for just 2 takeout street food meals. At an affordable price I'd be willing to try them again but $64(?!?!?) heck no!

But recently I ventured out to try something new, and once again, Van Horn's didn't disappoint. The fact that you can get your chicken cheesesteak chopped or chunked is another nice touch. It's rare that I pay for something I'm used to paying a little less for and feel like I actually got my money's worth -- but that's exactly the case here. I've talked to family and friends, and we'll gladly rank Van Horn's as the best place in Delco, hands down, against any other contenders. Sitting here right now, looking forward to chowing down for lunch. Thanks!
