The Thunderbird, a third-generation, family owned steak house opened in 1956 is one of Broomall’s best kept secrets. With the ambiance of a 1950’s steak house, round stools included, the locals gather to reconnect with friends, hear the latest news of the town or pick up their order for the big game. Known for having the best wings and cheesesteaks in town, the pizza will have your mouth watering as well.

This quaint steak house on West Chester Pike in Broomall connects the old with the new. On the wall you can take a trip through time looking at pictures of the area dating back to the 1950‘s when the trollies ran up West Chester Pike. They show you pictures of ‘the Pike’ before it became ‘the Pike’ we know today.  After growing up ordering food from the Thunderbird, it is the one place I recommend to all my out-of- town friends and I urge you to try it for yourself, you won’t be disappointed.

Offering a wide array of sandwiches, named after multiple towns in the area and plenty of seafood choices, Casey’s Seafood Grille & Pub in Newtown Square is a great choice for any occasion. Relaxed enough for a quick meal or a drink at the bar but nice enough for a more formal affair. On one side the dining room opens into the bar, creating a fun atmosphere that allows you to watch the game while enjoying a full meal. The other side of the restaurant is a more secluded and quiet area where you can enjoy an intimate conversation or close a business deal. In the back of the restaurant there is a private room for small parties. The decor offers a cozy environment celebrating Newtown Square and the surrounding areas.

After enjoying lunch with two close friends, we all agreed that Casey’s was a good choice and we would definitely come back. I chose a sandwich called “the Goshen”. A New York Strip steak topped with onion rings, tomatoes and lettuce on a long roll served with your choice of French fries or fruit and a pickle. It was excellent, the perfect size for lunch and cooked to perfection. Natalie chose “The Waynesboro”, a double decker sandwich that consisted of tuna, lettuce and tomato. “The sandwich, she says, was delicious but had a bit too much tuna”. Nikki chose the “Crab St Albans”, a toasted English muffin topped with crab imperial and served with a side of French fries and a pickle. With a large portion of lump crab meat on top of a perfectly toasted english muffin, she was very pleased with her lunch. Nikki complimented her meal with a glass of J. Lohr Riesling, a combination which made her very excited to return.

Overall Casey’s was a great experience. It is a nice place to catch up with friends or take the family with a price point that won’t kill your budget. The service was great and there is something to eat for even the pickiest of eaters.
