Mimi’s Pizza Exton
A takeout pizza counter on Marchwood Road, open 11 to 9 every day including Sunday. The kind of no-drama weeknight order you don’t have to check the hours for first.
A crossroads that became Chester County's mall town — minus the mall, these days. Exton Square went dark for good this summer after 53 years, but "Main Street at Exton," a shopping center built to look like a downtown, still pulls in the county on a Saturday.

A takeout pizza counter on Marchwood Road, open 11 to 9 every day including Sunday. The kind of no-drama weeknight order you don’t have to check the hours for first.
A neighborhood American kitchen on Main Street in Exton with a long, something-for-everyone menu. It pulls a steady regular crowd rather than a scene.
Sushi and steak sharing one kitchen on North Pottstown Pike. Nigiri and rolls on one side, cuts off the grill on the other.

The Exton half of a two-shop pizza-and-steaks operation; the other Gentili's is down in Springfield. There's a Gentili Family Rewards program for anyone whose pizza night is a standing appointment.
Pizza and grill on North Pottstown Pike, where the pies are only half the story. Behind them runs a full Italian-American grill menu.

Brewery and scratch kitchen on North Pottstown Pike, pouring its own beer next to a full dinner menu. The taphouse setup means a flight and a plate without leaving your seat.
A gastropub on Pottstown Pike in Exton with a draft list that runs deep. Come for wings and the big game on the screens.
Coffee and ice cream under one roof on Main Street, which is the correct arrangement. Espresso in the morning, a cone in the afternoon.
Bar and dinner spot on North Pottstown Pike, part of the Whole Foods at that end of town. Come for a drink and a plate without the full sit-down-restaurant production.

The Eagleview Town Center outpost of a local coffee company that promises your first cup will leave you 'ruined for the ordinary.' One of five Twin Valley cafes; grab a bag of their Gazebo Blend on the way out.
Veteran-owned brewpub in the historic Ship Inn on Lincoln Highway, brewing its beer on site with a full kitchen and bar behind it. There's now a second taphouse in Honey Brook, but Exton is where the tanks live.
Clothing boutique at the Iron Lake Drive leasing center, carrying apparel and accessories. An easy local stop when you'd rather skip the mall.
Candle shop and pour-your-own workshop on North Pottstown Pike. Book a bench, pick your scents, and make the candle yourself.

The Eagleview bookshop that made Atlas Obscura's list of the world's 62 best independent bookstores. There's a cafe, and enough nooks and crannies that an errand here rarely stays an errand.
Independent health-and-beauty shop inside Exton Square Mall, under the NicMarie Design label. Locally made goods with a confidence-first pitch.
A fish counter on North Pottstown Pike stocking the day's catch. Where the neighborhood goes for crab and whatever swam in fresh that morning.
A consignment boutique on Gordon Drive where the stock turns over on somebody else’s closet-cleaning schedule. Open till 5 most days, a shorter Saturday, closed Sundays.
The county's central library branch off Exton Square Parkway. Shelves to browse and a full events calendar most weeks.
A paved, ADA-accessible rail trail running 13.5 miles in Chester County plus 5.1 more in Montgomery, connecting east to the Schuylkill River Trail. The Exton Park trailhead at Church Farm Lane puts you near the western end, with the first mile of a five-mile Downingtown extension under construction.
Public tennis courts in Miller Park, off Miller Way. Bring your own racquet and a fresh can of balls.

A quieter West Whiteland park on Swedesford Road, good for a walk and some open grass away from the Route 30 traffic.
A 701-acre park bought jointly by Chester County and West Whiteland Township, with 19.1 developed acres holding two playgrounds, a sand volleyball court, picnic tables, and a half-mile walking trail with a story-walk funded by the Chester County Library. It is also the only county-owned trailhead on the Chester Valley Trail, so one parking spot buys you miles of riding.
