The Whip Tavern

The Whip is gold at the end of a rainbow of Chester County horse country. Who would expect to find authentic English pub food stationed somewhere between Coatesville, Cochranville and Kennett Square?

At The Whip I learned that black and white puddings are breakfast sausage, but Yorkshire pudding is a kind of puff pastry best enjoyed with roast beef. I learned that Scotch eggs are deep fried and delicious. And I learned that what Cork and Cap (Lancaster, Pa.) calls rarebit is more like melted Velveeta.

The Whip is not pretentious. It is a pub. You can get $2 pints and games on TV. 

But during the summer you can enjoy a mouthwatering brunch beneath the trees by Doe Run. And in the winter the fireplace, dark wood and beer-only bar are everything you need to make cold feel like a charming counterpoint to your cozy cosmopolitan life.
