Ground Provisions

The prefix menu gives you the opportunity to explore Vegan cuisine. Food is great and portions are very satisfying. The Buckwheat crepe was my favorite dish of the night.

Fun Friday night birthday dinner! Came half an hour early for our 730pm reservation and were able to be seated with no wait. All of the courses were really fresh and tasty :) the waiter explained each dish once placing it on the table. Adored the dessert (with candles for our birthdays :))! Plenty of parking. Good, calm vibes.

If you think vegan food is just tofu and kale, Ground Provisions will quickly prove you wrong. From the moment we stepped inside, the ambiance was warm and welcoming—soft lighting, vintage cookware accents, and lush greenery created a cozy, thoughtful atmosphere. The staff were both knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about the menu, offering insightful recommendations and clearly explaining each dish. The food? Absolutely phenomenal. From the first bite of the Brioche Toast with Celery Root Bisque to the final spoonful of Rhubarb Cheesecake, every course challenged and expanded my understanding of what vegan cuisine can be. The cocktails were equally impressive—The Spring and All stood out as a favorite: crisp, refreshing, and perfectly suited for the season. The full tasting experience felt generous without being overwhelming—each dish was a delightful surprise, artfully presented and deeply satisfying. Ground Provisions delivers not just a meal, but a beautifully curated culinary journey that celebrates flavor, creativity, and abundance-highly recommend!

This is absolutely one of the most fantastic gourmet restaurants in the area, vegan or not. You will actually forget it’s vegan by the second course. I have been here twice now and both times I have had flavors that kept me guessing in the best way. They have some of the best servers in the area (just extremely skilled and friendly). The portions may look small, but you will leave so stuffed by the time the courses are done. I really highly recommend adding the vegan cheese plate. It’s so delicious and unique. You can get steak almost anywhere, but vegan food expertly done ( with a focus on letting the vegetables shine instead of meat substitutes) is SO rare. The vibe inside is also soothing and comforting. I love it.

We had the chance to try the 5-course tasting menu, and it honestly surprised me in the best way. Every dish felt thoughtful and made with real care. You can tell the chef puts a lot of creativity into the flavors—each course had something unique, yet everything worked beautifully together. What I loved most was how light but satisfying the whole meal felt. Nothing was overpowering, and every plate looked like it belonged in a fine-dining cookbook. The staff made the experience even better—they explained each course, checked in at the right time. I left feeling happy, full, and genuinely impressed. If you’re looking for a great vegan-plant based dining experience, this menu is absolutely worth trying. Also, try the cheese board and additional desert they have off menu.

Years ago, and long before we retired and hit the road, we were lucky enough to get a last minute reservation to Vedge while in Philadelphia. So when we heard that a sister restaurant opened in historic Dillworthtown we were excited. While back in the Philadelphia area, we finally visited to celebrate a birthday. While not a place we can routinely visit due to the cost, it was an outstanding place for a celebration. Everything from talking to the owners to the food was excellent. The building was charming, the staff was great, and the food was elevated and amazing. We could not have asked for a better night. We definitely recommend visiting. We suggest making a reservation since it was busy during our visit on a weekday.

Excellent and creative dining experience! The entire team from hostess, servers, food runners, bartender, Chef made for a memorable dining experience! Every dish was delicious and well thought out!!

I’ve eaten at Ground Provisions many times, and it’s truly my favorite place. The food is always fresh, creative, and absolutely delicious. Every dish is plated so beautifully, and I love how the team takes the time to describe everything as it’s served it makes the meal feel special every single time. The desserts are incredible not just delicious but thoughtful and perfectly balanced, the kind that makes you slow down and savor every bite. The warm, friendly atmosphere makes it feel like home. It’s the kind of place you never get tired of.

This was one of the finest meals we've ever had. Every course was exquisite. If it's something you can afford we highly recommend it. Great service, too. Sure, there's no meat, dairy, or eggs but the vegetables, fruit, pasta and bread were so beautifully prepared that you don't miss what's not there. I'm an omnivore and eat vegan a lot. I would love to be able to recreate these special dishes.

Just amazing in every way. Husband took me here for a surprise date night and it exceeded expectations. We did the tasting menu in the dining room, which included 5 courses + we added the cheese board. Each course was fantastic. They all change depending on the season. The carrot pastrami on toast and the potato leek course were my favorite. Cocktails were nice and they had a good selection of natural wines. Staff was so incredibly nice and knowledgeable. Pricey, but well worth it. Can't wait to come back. FYI- it's vegan!

Our visit in mid-June 2025 was unforgettable. The tasting menu was on offer. We had an addition to our reservation, and they graciously accommodated it, even though changes can be challenging with this type of menu. We had one omnivore who is rather picky, a young vegetarian, plus two vegans in our party. The drink selections were lovely. I had two with alcohol, and the rest of the party chose from the non-alcoholic drinks. One of the latter, a Strawberry Fizz, was so delicious that it tasted almost like a strawberry muffin in your mouth. The tasting menu consisted of five small plates plus a dessert, and we also included the option of a Rebel Cheese course. The service and pacing were flawless. I was joking with the server at one point, and she went along with it, which I appreciated. The picky eater marvelled at every course; she even wished I hadn't invited her, because the experience raised the bar on dining so much. Three of the dishes were spectacular. A spelt English muffin with a bean salad and crème fraiche, with a tiny melon gazpacho side. Sounds odd, was terrific. I could have eaten ten. That's the issue with tasting menus that you have to reconcile yourself with before going: you want to have more of everything. Next was the grilled zucchini with a pesto and slaw. I am not a zucchini fan, but I devoured it. The final outstanding dish was the maitake mushroom. All three of these dishes had exquisite light sauces. I enjoyed the pasta (garganelli) with English peas, but it was just a touch too salty for me; similarly, the macerated strawberries on lemon cake with coconut buttercream were a touch too sweet. But these are my tastes. Oh, we also got an optional ice cream, lemon balm, that was outstanding. The space itself is perfect. Interesting but not overly so, with light jazz music playing at the perfect volume. It was one of the quietest restaurants I've been in, with conversations easy to hear, even though I often have a problem deciphering speech over background noise. I had very little sense of the other diners around me. There is also seating at a chef's table and outside. The outside seating faces the road, so there might be some noise. The bathroom was clean, and there was a poem above the sink. Bonus points! With six drinks and the optional cheese plate, it was expensive (to someone over 60 who doesn't do fine dining very often), but also appropriately priced for our experience. I don't have the kind of cash to do this even once a month, but I hope to return next year and do it again. I guess I'm burying the lede here, but this was probably the best meal of my life, or at least in the top five.

This place is a vegetarians dream. The menu is outstanding. Very quaint with personalized service.

The restaurant is cozy and you feel like you're in someone's home. Service is stellar. We had the sweetest waitress and she was super accomodating with one of us having a gluten intolerance. We did email them ~24hrs in advance so they could prepare. We learned that they prepare the exact number of plates based on the number of reservations that day. If you don't have a reservation you can do outdoor dining with light bites and that menu seems appealing too. They have such creative plant based dishes that are fresh and flavorful. We also enjoyed our seasonal cocktails. Dinner here was the perfect way to end our day after enjoying Longwood Gardens!

My dad and his wife wanted to go out to dinner with Son #1 and his wife. They are vegan and by coincidence I recently saw that Ground Provisions made the Best of Philadelphia list. Additionally, making a reservation was supposed to be at least a month in advance on Resy. I went to check for a table for four and lo and behold, there was an opening on Saturday evening. I snagged the reservation and all of us were very happy. We had a great meal at this rustic and somewhat noisy and dark farmhouse/house with excellent service. The price fixe menu at $79 each was reasonable based on the many tapas-like courses. At our meal, there was an option to add a $15 tomato fromage course which we did for one instead of two. It consisted of some of the best faux cheese I've ever had made out of cashews which I ended up purchasing an 8oz wheel from their market in the other room. We had courses of squash, grits, Maitake mushrooms, pea pasta, and others which although small and some made to share among us four, when combined together made for a filling meal. We also had some cocktails of sangria, beer, and I had two mocktails of Miss Peaches which I would have preferred a pint of each time of this delicious drink. The dessert of peaches was divine with the homemade thyme ice cream. We also each received a small champagne on the house. It appeared that all tables were being given this. With the drinks and extra plate, with tax but not including tip came to $398 for four. I also spent $30 in the market for the cashew cheese and some homemade soaps. The market has flours, syrups, jellies, sauces, sandwiches, cookies, and lots of other items for sale. Some of the items they use in the dishes served for the price fixe meal. Our server and her coworkers were friendly and attentive. We would come back again!

I went to ground provisions for their New Year's Eve tasting menu and enjoyed immensely. The dishes were so creative and delicious, who knew vegetables could be this good??? I'm really excited to go back and try the regular dinner menu soon.

Ambiance romantic & warm. Service polished & friendly. Food flavorful & inventive. Value for what is received is good yet would be happy to pay more for larger portions as did leave still slightly hungry.

Went with a group of friends last night, and we were blown away by the entire experience--beautiful setting, super friendly staff, and the food was simply exquisite. The thoughtful, artistic presentation, the blends of different tastes and textures--every detail just felt elevated from the yummy rum and strawberry syrup cocktail to the bright flavors and dishes that I would never prepare at home. The chefs adapted the tasting menu for me since I am gluten free--and I loved the savory chickpea flour bread and the vanilla cookie. I even thought the tofu (which I don't normally like) was delicious. I am grateful that a restaurant like this exists!

This is absolutely one of the most fantastic gourmet restaurants in the area, vegan or not. You will actually forget it's vegan by the second course. I have been here twice now and both times I have had flavors that kept me guessing in the best way. They have some of the best servers in the area (just extremely skilled and friendly). The portions may look small, but you will leave so stuffed by the time the courses are done. I really highly recommend adding the vegan cheese plate. It's so delicious and unique. You can get steak almost anywhere, but vegan food expertly done ( with a focus on letting the vegetables shine instead of meat substitutes) is SO rare. The vibe inside is also soothing and comforting. I love it.

One of the most fun places we've eaten. The atmosphere was great, not stuffy or pretentious, and the food was phenomenal. We're not vegan but heard great things so decided to try it out. We'll be coming back a lot.

Ground Provisions is the best restaurant in the area hands down. It is amazing what they can do with plant based food. Even if you're not vegan you will fall in love with every dish. They are constantly changing the menu so it never gets boring. The people and atmosphere are so kind and cozy. We will never stop making our regular visits!

Took myself on a solo little date here before the summer ended and I had the best experience! I initially decided to visit because their onsite vegan market carries my favorite cheese brand (Rebel!), but made a reservation! This place treated me like royalty! I really enjoyed the thoughtfully curated 7 course menu with every bite being flavorful and filling. The owner (I think?) stopped by to talk to me for awhile and told me all about their farm-to-table way of living. I cannot wait to visit again to try their winter seasonal menu!

Incredible. Great ambiance, attentive and friendly service, perfectly paired wines, and delicious food with layers of flavors. Clearly a lot of passion from everyone involved. This place is hitting above its weight in West Chester. The tasting menu is a great first foray in experiencing the menu. We will be back for sure.

Incredibly welcoming and ambient atmosphere, punctuated by warm and amiable staff. Admirably designed environment with calm and systematic open kitchen. Creative, appetizing, and dynamic small plates that left me very satisfied.

When I found out the owners of Vedge were opening a market and restaurant in Glen Mills, I was beside myself with excitement to have a delicious, plant-forward restaurant so much closer to home --- and of course, when reservations opened up, I immediately snagged one for their first weekend of dining service. I am always a little skeptical of brand new restaurants that may have some kinks to work out, but our meal at Ground Provisions was excellent from start to finish. While it is an entirely vegan menu, the skeptics should know every single course we were served was objectively phenomenal food that just happens to be made without animal products. Side note, we arrived a few minutes early to check out their market, which offers a variety of plant-based snacks and sauces along with a small to-go refrigerator with a few sandwiches and vegetable side dishes. I was excited to a see a shelf of Burlap and Barrel spices, a personal favorite of mine, and spotted several specialty ingredients that are often difficult to find in the typical grocery store. Once our friends arrived, the servers offered to take our coats before seating us in their dining area, which is small but well-decorated and quite cozy. We were offered their drink menu to make our only decision of the night: did we want one of their 3 cocktails, 2 local beers, or a glass/bottle of one of their natural wines? They also offer a wine pairing for $35, which we thought was very reasonably priced, so I had to indulge! From there, we began our five course prix-fixe tasting menu, which, per the restaurant website, will evolve monthly and feature seasonal produce from local farms. It's also priced well at $75 per person. Our first course was Langos, a soft, pillowy potato bread filled with herbs and served with a smoked onion dashi and seaweed butter that was an absolutely delightful place to start our meal. I often avoid finishing my bread to leave room for other courses, but I could not help but devour it all. The second course, The "Dirt List" was a selection of vegetable side dishes served family style: roasted carrots with whipped tahini, braised broccoli rabe with grits and tomato conserva, and a caesar-inspired salad. The four of us could not agree on which was our favorite --- all were delicious in their own way (to me, the clear winner was the roasted carrots!). The pasta course was third, and while it was perhaps the least photogenic, I thought it was one of the most flavorful, featuring rounds of semolina pasta with a fennel cream sauce, topped with pistachio and just a hint of heat. Our main course was the unanimous favorite: a smoky, grilled Lion's Mane Mushroom that was actually quite meaty in texture, served over mashed sunchokes. I think we all would have gladly accepted seconds or even thirds of this course --- just a beautiful, well crafted dish. Our dessert course featured a creamy, pineapple lush tartlet with chocolate crumb crust and a lavender cream, both of which had textures that made it hard to believe they were non-dairy --- we all scraped our plates clean on this course, too. A few times throughout our meal, our waiter asked if we had any feedback for the restaurant, and I honestly couldn't come up with anything that we would have changed about the meal. The service was friendly, approachable, and seemed knowledgeable about the dishes and wines they were serving, and the food was absolutely incredible. I've already booked my March reservation and absolutely can't wait to go back!

Delicious from the very first bite! Every course was different but so delicious. The wine pairing perfectly matched the courses too.

This is probably the best food I ever had. My brother and his wife took my partner and myself here shortly after we had a baby. It was also right after Covid restrictions decreased. So, it was a great first time out in a long time. I still think about this food. I wish I could afford to go! We were very fortunate to have my brother treat us that night. My partner, who usually avoids mushrooms, enjoyed his first mushroom dish EVER. It opened up him to trying more meals that are similar. I'm grateful for that.

This was my third time at Ground Provisions over the past 6 months and I'm a devoted fan! I've thoroughly enjoyed the multi-course menu with the wine pairing in the dining room and at the Chef Counter. Both areas were lovely but being able to see the food prep at the counter was fun for my son who loves cooking. I also sat at the bar with a friend ordering from the bar menu. As much as I loved the little store, I appreciate the extra space they put in for dining now. I hope it continues to do well. So happy there is a fine dining option locally for vegan fare.

Phenomenal meal. Loved everything about this place. Ambience is so warm and inviting. Service is impeccable. Wine was perfect. The food was delicious. Would have liked some bread for the delicious sauces. We'll be back.

You must check this place out. I previously provided a 5 star recommendation for the indoor dining. I checked out the patio food and drink options, and it is a must do. The options were plentiful and took my taste buds down a delicious journey. Each dish that I tried, I found myself saying, this is a must have. Sitting outside was an added plus. As always, the service was outstanding. Thank you for the experience. Oh by the way, you must try the noodle salad, the fries, the tacos and... wait that was my entire order. #Maui Strong

What a wonderful restaurant. We got reservations for a special occasion. The service was attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. The food was amazing. Each course in the tasting menu was wonderful. The pasta dish was one of the best I've ever had. I actually prefer this over Vedge as it's sometimes difficult to read the menu and foresee how it'll arrive. Tasting menu is a good value, no complaints at all there. Vibe was lively but not too loud. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. FYI you can BYOB your own wine for a $25 corkage fee. We had our favorite French wine. It was a good deal for us.

Located in historic Dilworthtown near the Penn-Delaware boundary at 1388 Old Wilmington Pike, West Chester, PA, Ground Provisions has the ambience of a countryside inn and is the perfect spot for a special occasion (existing or to be created). Isn't it wonderful that the most sustainable cuisine can be the most interesting? In late February 2023, the menu comprises: Langos, a Hungarian potato bread with a delicious onion dashi broth; delicata squash with the richest, most satisfying lentils I've ever tasted; tender and gorgeous rainbow carrots; braised winter greens with pickled pepper relish on grits milled in Bucks County; delicate pasta coins in a spicy fennel sauce; and lion's mane mushroom (the start of the show)! For dessert there is pineapple lush, which will give cheesecake lovers something entirely new to talk about. Amenities: Ample parking; outdoor dining space; fridge stocked with homemade wraps, kombuchas and teas of may kinds (even a sparkling mushroom tea!); beautiful dry-goods market focused on fair-trade, local, and small-batch and fresh-baked treats; wheelchair accessibility; a gender-neutral restroom.

Beautiful restaurant. Great area. Exceptional service. Delicious, varied menu. Food was spectacular. Our only choice when visiting Portsmouth!

I guess we were a little afraid that we would not love a vegan restaurant....boy, we were wrong! Every single dish in the Farmer's menu was great, creative, enjoyable and yummy. The wine pairings were wonderful as well. We've already made reservations for our next time.

The food is absolutely amazing! The textures & taste, the blend of ingredients made for an exquisite gastronomic experience. Service was impeccable ~ our server was knowledgeable, friendly & attentive to our table. The setting is small, cozy & quaint, just perfect for a date or a group of friends. We (2 couples) enjoyed a 6 course (& dessert) Prix Fixe tasting menu. Each dish more amazing than the last. Wine pairing is available if interested. I chose a delicious cocktail from the bar (so good I ordered a second one!). We all left completely satisfied with plans to return monthly. (the menu changes ~ every month). So happy to have this gem of a restaurant in the area.

The entire experience was perfection. We walked into a charming little restaurant. Our service was spot on. We did the tasting menu after hearing rave reviews from friends. Boy were we impressed!. We had a delicious broth and beet crostini. I don't even like beets- this was fabulous. Various roasted veggies, pasta with mushrooms and savory crepe. Every piece of the meal was well thought out and flavorful. Best vegan food in Philadelphia region. On par with our favorite restaurant located in Asheville NC.

As a restaurant critic for Gannett in South Florida and a mother visiting her strict vegetarian daughter in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania, I was beyond thrilled to discover Ground Provisions outside West Chester. This sophisticated yet friendly, cozy, 100% plant-based restaurant more than delivered an outstanding dining experience for the whole family, even those of us who are not vegetarian. We were all enamored by the sumptuous celery root bisque, beautiful and tasty badger flame beet crudo, mustard-glazed maitake mushroom risotto, and so much more from Executive Chef Brandon Beringer's brilliant, ever-changing prix fixe tasting menu. Pastry Chef Nora Wilson knocks it out of the park with her fragrant and delicious breads and dreamy desserts. Her macerated strawberries lemon cake with coconut buttercream and fennel syrup was a trip to heaven. Anyone who appreciates the artistry of a finely curated multi-course dining experience featuring fresh ingredients from local farms will be enchanted and ever so satisfied at Ground Provisions. Congrats to Chefs Brandon and Nora. See you next visit.

We have been a number of times but this was our first on a Wednesday night and we loved the ambience and that it wasn't as hectic as on weekends. Had the opportunity to speak with Brandon, the chef, and Nora, the pastry chef which we really enjoyed. The meal was incredible as always and the service impeccable but not formal. Each course was unique, beautifully presented and delicious with all fresh ingredients. The mixed chicory salad was amazing and Brandon said it was because their local supplier grew such wonderful greens. So fresh! All the other courses were equally good. The Gateau Breton for dessert was decadent but not overly sweet and the sneak peek of a new dessert ensures we will be back to taste that on the menu! Great job!!!

This was such a warm and welcoming staff, decor and food. It had a feel of eating a home cooked meal, except cooked with much more imagination and spark of creativity. The night we went the meal was so delicious and even with a fixed 6 course meal every morsel was delicious! One of the best meals I have had in a long time BTW, it is vegetarian and I am not a vegetarian so even if you are not a vegetarian, try it. You might be surprised.

The food was wonderful, but the portions were too small for our group of four. I promise I'm not saying this in a typical American way, I've eaten at a lot of top restaurants (ugh, I hated writing that but you know what I mean). Our friends who had gone there when it was just the two of them a few months before said they had slightly bigger portions. It felt like we were rationing little bites per dish. We stopped for a snack on the way home :-/ But the food itself was incredible. The service was phenomenal and the ambiance was great.

I don't get all the 5 star reviews, food was bland and uninspired. Would not return. Service was adequate, nothing memorable.

Stunningly good tasting menu. There were no vegans in our party and yet everyone was thrilled with the food. Will definitely be back and can't wait to shop the general store side.

Totally vegan, totally awesome. The tasting menu is several courses/dishes each with a distinctive and collated sensory experience. Service is top notch, decor is beautiful and the ambience is quiet and relaxing. Music is a personal thing, but the playlist while we were there was right up our street. Not cheap but certainly came away feeling it was money well spent.

Amazing vegan food, great service, attached market with foods you won't find just anywhere. Highly recommend for an evening out!

I visited Ground Provisions for a cocktail party. I am so delighted to have a gourmet vegan restaurant and market in the area. The food was phenomenal and the bar is also excellent. I look forward to trying their dinner menu and revisiting their well stocked market space. I highly recommend visiting this beautiful spot where you can make dinner reservations, stop in for a drink, or simply peruse the market.

My husband liked all of the tastings. I was less inspired by the focaccia and the pudding desert. I gave them both to him. The portions were too small. They should have been double the size. The cheese plate consisted of one tiny wedge of truffle brie and a few crackers. It was laughable. Lovely atmosphere. Heading home now for dinner.

Amazing vegan food, outstanding service, wonderful wine pairing; everything you would want in an upscale vegan restaurant. The space is from days gone by but with a modern flair. An intimate space that seats about 30 people. Two seatings a night with a reservation and open for lunch too. There is an attached market that sells assorted vegan goods including fresh baked pastries. If you want an outstanding meal this is the place to go, yes it's vegan and yes it is one of the most memorable meals you could imagine.

what an amazing experience the tasting menu + wine pairing is! spices are handled with a deft touch which don't overwhelm but complement the fresh produce.
