660 East Lancaster Avenue · Berwyn, PA 19312
Across the street from the train.
Corner of Lancaster Avenue and Main Avenue, directly opposite Berwyn station. Free parking behind the building, and a train platform close enough that you can leave the car at home entirely.
Two addresses, one building. The lounge and kitchen are 660 East Lancaster Avenue. Midtown Hall, our second-floor venue, is 658A East Lancaster Avenue — put that one on event invitations.
By car
Off Route 30, minutes from 202.
We're on Lancaster Avenue — Route 30 — at the corner of Main Avenue in Berwyn, and about as centrally placed as the western Main Line gets. Thirty minutes from Philadelphia in one direction, thirty from West Chester in the other, and fifteen from King of Prussia.
That matters for events: guests coming from the city, the western suburbs and the King of Prussia corridor all drive roughly the same distance. Nobody has the long haul.

By train
Berwyn station, straight across.
SEPTA's Paoli/Thorndale Line stops at Berwyn, roughly a one‑minute walk from our door. Trains run to and from 30th Street, Suburban and Jefferson stations in Center City through the evening.
The station is wheelchair accessible with high‑level platforms on both sides, and SEPTA's Route 106 bus connects there too.
Coming out for a night with a bar involved, this is the easy answer. You will not be the only person on the platform doing it.
For anyone not from around here
What "the Main Line" actually means.
It isn't a town, a township or a zip code. The Main Line is the string of communities that grew up along the Pennsylvania Railroad's main line running west out of Philadelphia — the railroad came first and the towns followed the tracks.
Running out from the city: Overbrook, Merion, Narberth, Wynnewood, Ardmore, Haverford, Bryn Mawr, Rosemont, Villanova, Radnor, St. Davids, Wayne, Strafford, Berwyn, Daylesford, Paoli and Malvern.
Those tracks are now SEPTA's Paoli/Thorndale line, and Berwyn station is directly across Lancaster Avenue from our front door. So when we say we're on the Main Line, we mean it about as literally as a building can — you can see the platform from the bar.
Practically, it means we're an easy trip from Wayne, Devon, Paoli, Malvern, Villanova, Radnor and Bryn Mawr, and a straight train ride from Center City.
Administratively, we're in Easttown Township, Chester County, and in the Tredyffrin/Easttown School District — which matters more than it sounds if you're planning a class reunion, a sports banquet or a PTO fundraiser.
Parking
Straight answer: it gets tight on weekends.
We're on a busy stretch of Lancaster Avenue between a train station and two other bars. On a Friday or Saturday night the spots out front are gone. There is plenty of parking within a two‑minute walk — you just need to know where to go instead of circling.
Valet is available for large private events. If you're hosting in Midtown Hall or taking the first floor, ask us about it when you book — we'll arrange valet and put out signage and staff to direct your guests to the right lot.
Valet doesn't run on ordinary nights. Use the lots above.
Coming for happy hour at four? The station lot isn't free until five, so use our lot behind the building — free at any hour, and it's rarely full before six.
The honest recommendation for a Friday or Saturday: take the train. Berwyn station is directly across the street on the Paoli/Thorndale line, and you avoid the parking question and the drive home in one move.
If you are driving on a weekend, come before 7 and you'll get our lot.
Getting home
Plan the way back before the first drink.
We'd rather say this plainly than pretend it doesn't come up. If you're drinking, sort out how you're getting home before you start — and we'll help.
The train is the easy answer for most of the evening. Berwyn station is directly across Lancaster Avenue on the Paoli/Thorndale line, running to and from Center City through the evening. Check the last train before you settle in; SEPTA doesn't run as late as we do.
After that, a ride. Rideshare pickups work best out front on Lancaster Avenue or at the rear entrance from Main Avenue — tell your driver "660 East Lancaster Avenue, across from Berwyn station" and they'll find it. Ask any bartender and we'll call you a car.
Leaving a car overnight in our lot is fine. Collect it the next day; we'd much rather that than the alternative.
Bringing a group
Sort transport with the booking.
For private events, transport is one of the first things people worry about and one of the last things they organise. Raise it when you enquire and we'll talk through it — the train for guests coming from the city, the free lots for everyone driving, and where to stage cars or a shuttle for a larger party.
