Going to Malvern, PA

People's Light and Theatre Company is right in Malvern. It's a very nice theatre.

Cedar Hollow Inn a nice restaurant for the price. Plus it's a late night bar with upscale munchies. I've had some good dinners there.

Maddies I've been there a few times for work functions. A bit of a yuppie crowd. I've heard they have decent bands.

The first few choices are 5-10 minutes from Malvern.

The Ship Inn - About 15 minutes from Malvern. This is the other moderately priced upscale restaurant. I've only had lunch there, so I'm not going to judge.

Duling Kurtz - About 20 minutes away. Absolutely the best place to eat if someone else is buying. One of our salespeople treated the tech staff (including me) to a lunch there once. If your hosts make the mistake of giving you the choice of anywhere you want for dinner one night, this would be the place to make up for that 3 hour tech support call back to California you made for something that turned out to be a user error.

F**k the Dilworthtown Inn, which is way overrated.

Longwood Gardens - 45 minutes from Malvern. This is the place I hang out at with Jeffrey and Marci. Very nice formal garden. As a bonus there is a 3 or 4 star restaurant in the middle of the garden. Since most people are visiting the garden, dress is casual.

Simon Pearce - A bit of a tourist trap, but you do get to watch them blow glass. Near Longwood.

Baldwin's Book Barn - It's a barn full of books. Baldwin's is a very large and quirky bookstore in an old barn. They have everything from year old cookbooks to early 20th century geography books. 3/4 of the way to Longwood from Malvern up the road from Simon Pearce.
