On Berks County Eats, we’ve enjoyed many memorable meals in Reading and Berks County, and some of the best have come at the county’s finer dining restaurants. Elevated food, atmosphere and service have led to some excellent finer dining meals. Here’s a look at those that we have enjoyed:
Road Trip: Revere Tavern
On a Saturday road trip to Lancaster County, we pay a visit to the Revere Tavern in Paradise, Pa., a quiet, historic restaurant serving traditional American fare.
Review: Cheers American Bistro
A visit to Cheers American Bistro inside the DoubleTree Hotel in downtown Reading for a memorable Sunday brunch buffet.
Say Cheese Restaurant & Cheese
Back in West Reading, we make up for lost time with a visit to Say Cheese for cheddar and beer soup, braised short ribs and smoked salmon mac and cheese.
Review: Windsor Inn at Shillington
Not knowing what we'd find, Berks County Eats visited the Windsor Inn at Shillington. What we found was one of the best Italian restaurants around (and flaming desserts).
Panevino – CLOSED
Returning to Panevino for the first time in more than three years, we took full advantage of the restaurant's three-course meals to sample as much as possible.
Review: Stony Run Inn – CLOSED
Despite Berks County's proud German heritage, there are very few restaurants serving authentic German food. We head to the far northern reaches of Berks County for a taste of the Old World at the Stony Run Inn.
Review: Yellow House Hotel
Since first visiting in 2014, we have enjoyed many meals at Emily's so we had high expectations on our first trip to its sister restaurant, the Yellow House Hotel. After an excellent meal, it's safe to say it lived up to expectations.
Review: Dans at Green Hills
Dans at Green Hills is one of only a handful of Berks County establishments that can truly be called fine dining. We visited for a memorable three-course meal that reaffirmed their status as one of the area's best restaurants.
Review: The Knight’s Pub at Stokesay Castle
Two months after visiting Stokesay Castle for a mixer event, I returned for my first real meal at the Knight's Pub, and it was everything I had hoped it would be.
Review: Plein Air at Judy’s on Cherry
Late summer is one of the best times to enjoy dinner outside. Plein Air in Reading has created a whole restaurant around the outdoor dining experience and a menu of fresh summer favorites.
Road Trip: Stephen’s on State
Last week we took a road trip to Media, Delaware County, a town with no shortage of dining options. Stephen's on State came recommended by our local guides, and it delivered with a delicious steak dinner.
Review: Salute Ristorante Italiano
A Valentine's Day prix-fixe menu provided the perfect opportunity to visit one of Berks County's newest restaurants: Salute Ristorante Italiano in Sinking Spring.
