Reader Comments:
Since when is Kennett Square, or Glen Mills, or Exton, or West Chester on the Main Line? Either name it correctly, e.g., "Best of the Western suburbs", or limit the choices to the real Main Line.
uh they did...best of the main line AND western suburbs. look again.
Is it true that the only way that you are truely picked as a "Best of the Mainline" is to be an advertiser in the magazine?
This is not true. Our critics and readers picks have nothing to do with the advertising in the magazine.

justsnarky is a funny blog. thanks for picking something different.
Its ashame that people can't just be happy for other people. The ones that post mean stuff are the people that did not win. Get a life.
A great article about Celeste Giuliano. The talent in the Philadelphia area can be amazing!!
Wow. Philly CarShare has dumped the Main Line, so it's a shame they got recognition they don't deserve. I hope the magazine does a follow up article titled "where have all the pods gone?"
I will say that Blue Fin and Peanut Butter & Jane are absolutley the best of the Main Line western Suburbs Hands down! been to both and have never been disappointed !! Good choice.
How do you vote for a restaurant and who picks the restaurants to be voted on. Because there are some great places in Phoenixville and I only see one from there.
