    Excellent seasonal fish offering w/ multitude flavor and textures. Dining at our local "pub" was, as always, great.

    This was my first night out after prolonged cancer treatment. I have lingering trouble swallowing and chose a mushroom bisque and mashed potatoes and gravy. I was able to get down a small amount of both. My companion enjoyed finishing both along with his sea bass special. Of note he had a Manhattan and said it was one of the best he has had. We will return when my mouth is ready for the yummy options available here. We have dined at other Fearless Restaurants often but White Dog Haverford continues to be our favorite!

    Several groups came in after ours and received their food before us. That was annoying to witness—especially after making a reservation well in advance. Also, our server didn’t seem as present as the other servers.

    We understand you were busy due to graduations… We didn’t think ahead! Celebrating my friend’s birthday. Food is always delicious.
