Hillary Todd
(Community Manager)

Place: The Social Southern Scratch Kitchen and Bar
Location: 117 E Gay St, West Chester, PA 19380
Website: thesocialwc.com
Why: “Because I’m a sucker for their Nola Fries. It’s like crab and cheese (Oh, god, it’s so good.) Side note: Teca is so good but it’s expensive, but it’s so freaking good."

Pat Taggart
(Vice President align5 Films)

Place: Liquid Eatery
Location: 18 N High St, West Chester, PA 19380
Website: liquideatery.com
Why: "Super healthy stuff that you won’t find anywhere else in town that tastes awesome." Case in point, this picture of their Matcha Pichu Smoothie and Avocado + Zucchini Pesto Bowl looks all kinds of healthy.

Kevin O'Connor
(Vice President)

Place: Wally’s
Location: High & Market Streets
Website: n/a - click here to learn more about "Wally"
Why: "Wally [actually named Scott] is a staple of the community. He's been around for something like 35 years. He's fast, reliable, and has great dogs and sausage sandwiches!!! It's right across the street so it's my go-to I have cash and am hungry."

Chad Williams
(Managing Director)

Place: Market Street Grill
Location: 308 Market St, Philadelphia, PA 19106
Website: themarketstreetgrill.com
Why: "Being directly in downtown West Chester, we're really fortunate to be close to a lot of great places. But the fact that we have one of the best breakfast spots right next door in Market Street Grill means that I end up ordering food from them pretty frequently. It's incredibly convenient if I'm in meetings or calls all morning and want to grab some classic lunch food. Jaco Taco is really great too and only a block or two away."

Geoff Peel
(Web & Digital Marketing Specialist)

Place: Jaco Juice and Taco Bar
Location: 8 W Gay St, West Chester, PA 19380
Website: jacojuiceandtaco.com
Why: “I’m fairly new to the downtown West Chester and haven’t been to many places for lunch. (Only two, to be precise.) But I really loved sitting at the counter of Jaco Juice and Taco Bar. I sat down and was in and out of there so quickly. The food came quick but it was also partly because I inhaled my three tacos. Their corn tortillas which I’ve never been a huge fan of, are great. They’re big and chewy kind of like a flour one. The contents inside were also great and pretty inexpensive. I hear their water’s good, but I was still sipping on coffee from the office.”
