  • Hank's Place Intersection of US Route 1 and 100 (Creek Rd) 610 388 7061. Excellent New England styled diner with lots of Greek inspired choices... I've never had a bad selection from the menu, but if its your first time, go for the Kennett Sq Omlet - full of locally grown mushrooms. Limited seating, but it's worth the wait.
