No need to buy coverings for the chairs because they are perfect the way they are, clear so the match any décor you may have in mind.

While we decided to go with another venue (Tyler Arboretum for the win!), we loved how elegant and beautiful Curtis Arboretum was. The entrance hall is stunning, the grounds are open and inviting, and it is quite close to the city for out of town guests. All in all, we were very impressed and would recommend to anyone wanting a delicious catering package in a beautiful, elegant yet outdoorsy setting.

Curtis Hall was the perfect place to host our wedding, and our guests are still bringing up what a…read morewonderful location it was two months later. If you have between 100-120 guests, Curtis provides an incredible value, as you get enough indoor space to fit everybody, plus access to the ample tables and chairs on site. The space itself is beautiful. The ceilings are wonderfully ornate, and the park is a great space for your guests to explore and enjoy. We spent half the night outside on the porch, and used the beautiful stone steps as a staging point for family pictures. I have one caveat to this review. Unlike other wedding venues, Curtis isn't really a client-facing organization. It is run by Cheltenham Township, and used primarily for township events and meetings, not weddings. So you shouldn't expect the customer service experience that you might be used to elsewhere while wedding shopping. That's what the review below is likely referring to. Personally, my wife and I found the pampering treatment annoying and were able to save a lot of money by using vendors who don't do the whole over the top wedding thing.

Friends and family stopped by this local bar the other night to celebrate my cousin getting…read moreengaged, and it turned out to be one of those places you end up wanting to come back to. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming dim lighting, good music, and the kind of vibe where you can sit for hours without feeling rushed. The burger was easily the highlight. It came out hot, juicy, and perfectly cooked with a nice sear on the outside. The bun was soft but held everything together, and the toppings were fresh and balanced. Every bite had that classic, satisfying burger flavor that makes you slow down and enjoy it. It's the kind of burger that reminds you why simple bar food can still be amazing when it's done right. The drinks were just as good. The bartenders clearly knew what they were doing the cocktails were well mixed, not too strong, not too watered down, and the selection of beers was solid. Whether you're in the mood for a craft beer or a mixed drink, there's plenty to choose from. Overall, it's a great spot if you're looking for a place with excellent burgers, good drinks, and a laid-back atmosphere. Perfect for grabbing dinner with friends or just relaxing with a drink after a long day.

It was quiet on the Friday afternoon when we stopped in for lunch, with just a handful of what appear to be regulars at the bar and an empty dining area. The menu is mainly bar fare with focus on burgers. The cheesteak egg rolls were sone of the best we have had in our travels and the burgers were thick and juicy with a very beefy flavor. The option to have side salad in lieu of fries is a plus. Not sure why so many negative reviews as our disappointments were few, including: no soup of the day, the brisket was way overdone in the burger and the biggest letdown was that they were out of the brownie egg rolls, a solid 3.5 stars for today. Our server was friendly, the food came out hot and quickly and our overall experience was pleasant. I will possibly take a trip back specifically for those brownie egg rolls and hopefully be able to add another star or two.
