Broad Table Tavern - SWARTHMORE

This review is for people with food allergies. I have 100000 of them and almost never eat out. But the Broad Table Tavern team took care of me in a way that honestly, was the best ever. They not only made me a delicious meal that was fancy and wonderful, but they also genuinely cared. I am so used to feeling like my allergies are a huge burden on staff. And it's hard, I know! But the team here was so lovely. They went above an beyond not only to cook for me but to make sure I felt safe. The normal people I had dinner with also loved their food! But if you are an allergy person, I can't recommend this place enough.

This place came highly recommended and i cannot for the life of me understand why. the atmosphere is lovely but the service is weak at best and the food is awful. we went for breakfast on a saturday. the place was empty but we sat for 30mins before anyone took our order. the avocado toast for $14 or so 2 pieces of soggy toast with liquid green on it assuming that was avocado and chopped egg. it was tasteless and wet. so bad. the omlet i ordered was fine but came with one small piece of toast. when I asked more toast, the waitress said i can get it for you but it will be more money. seriously? the home fries were mushy and the GF pancakes were beige and tasteless. it was just an overall overrated underperforming restaurant. don’t bother.

The service at the bar was good but I was charged more than the listed prices on the menus for everything I got. Like many dollars more. I don't think I'll go back.

We were there to celebrate a friend 's birthday. A group of seniors, 72+ year seniors! Ten of us were in attendance. We were seated in a private room. Very nice. Everyone was very happy with their food choices. A variety of choices. The most unexpected highlight of our luncheon was our server. She was excellent beyond words. Ten people to serve at once is a difficult job to begin with, but also to accommodate special preferences for each order from a group of old biddies was a gift not many servers can do with a smile. She raised the bar. She was also so helpful with the birthday ? and all of the birthday paraphernalia we brought with us. Overall, we had a wonderful, memorable celebration with our 82 year old friend. I highly recommend it. Parking: The restaurant is part of a beautiful hotel. There is plenty of free off-street parking in the hotel 's parking lot. Ppplenty of handicap parking spaces. Wheelchair accessibility: We were a group of 10 pre 'Baby Boomers '. Three of us have rollator walkers. Getting into the hotel lobby was very difficult. The handicapped door pad to open the doors (2 different sets) did not work. Someone had to hold the doors open for us to get inside. Once inside the restaurant, the receptionist stored our walkers for us. Very accommodating.

Not really a tavern, just a hotel bar. Ok food and the drinks weren't super expensive.
