Absolutely loved it here. Just dropped in because they had a copy (and collector's edition, no…read moreless!) of one of my favorite books in the window display. Inside there are a few pastries for sale and a few books for sale of varying genres. I can't speak for the food, as we didn't purchase any, but the owners are so nice and personable. We chatted about favorite books and despite only being here for 11 months, I hope they become a dub-c staple. The owners are a couple, one who went to school for culinary and the other for poetry. Truly a story from a Hallmark movie! Supporting independent bookstores and small POC-owned businesses is a priority for me, and I'm happy to welcome this location to the area. Their book collection is small, but the owner seems to have read most of them or can still give pointers. Still a wide variety of genres for sale, from children's books to horror to Japanese poetry.

This is a super cute spot for coffee, baked goods and best of all books! This space is charming…read morewith lots of new releases to select from. The cupcakes were ok, not great (seemed like maybe they absorbed other flavors or something) but they were beautiful and I would give them a 2nd try! But new books and coffee; you can't beat that.

The Chester County Historical Society in the heart of downtown West Chester is an excellent example…read moreof what a history museum should be. They have a fine collection of Chester County fine and decorative arts as well as various objects used by people in work and leisure over the last three centuries. The exhibits are informatively displayed. My favorite room is the hands-on room where you can touch everything and play with a lot of old toys. There is also usually a special exhibition being shown and right now it is an interesting one on the era of life in the '60s in Chester County. Next time you're heading to West Chester for drinks or to eat in one of the many restaurants, you might want to arrive early and check out this interesting historical society and museum.

I am SHOCKED, I'm the first reviewer!…read more This place is great, we went during one of the many temporary exhibits (which was fun), but the standard exhibits which features local furniture, facts, etc... was fun and educational.

When I was a kid, there was an old bookstore in the South Street Seaport in New York City. The…read morestore was located inside a riverfront building that dates back to the late 18th century. The feel of store was unmistakable and left a lasting impression on me. When I enter Baldwin's, I am transported back to that old bookstore of my youth. Walking through four levels of books, it's easy for one to feel as if they've been transported to a bygone era, in which reading was the entertainment option of choice for most and still viewed as the single best escape from a hard worn day. Just when you think they couldn't possibly cram any more books into this old barn, you turn a corner, find all new nooks and crannies, and find yourself drawn to collections from every era over the last century. There's something other-worldly about Baldwin's that is hard to describe, but it's very easy to lose yourself for hours. The title selections cover every topic under the sun, with many of the offerings being long out of print and only available on the secondary market. The prices are reasonable, but make no mistake, this is not a discount bookstore. This is an independent seller, with books that you're not going to necessarily find at your big chain options. The service is friendly, very much in the vein of a mom and pop/private business. They conveniently provide a map so you can find your way around, and trust me it is useful. The proprietor is more than happy to guide you in the right direction, or chat about your purchases, or answer any questions you might have. If you have a friend or family member, who is a book lover, this is a must see destination for them.

Beautiful spot, great service, and a massive collection of used books. I came on my birthday and it…read morewas a blast to just walk up all of the floors (I think there were 4) and see what they had. The only thing I wish is that they'd had a bigger collection of Easton Press/Franklin Press books - I came looking for more classics and I found this particular collection to be a little small. Otherwise, amazing spot.

I have been a member of both the Philadelphia and Chester County Bar Associations and I have to say…read morethat even though Chester County's Bar Association is smaller, it is just as relevant and maybe even a little more helpful (just my opinion). I love the CLE offerings and have been impressed with how friendly and professional most of the attorneys are. I have attended several section meetings in different areas of the law and I have always been made to feel welcome and have always learned something new. I also like the Bar Association's Lawyer Referral Service. If you need a lawyer in Chester County, their Bar Association should be the first place you call. In my experience, the attorneys who are affiliated with the Chester County Bar Association are usually very experienced and very good at what they do (again, just my opinion).

I've personally taken several Polish language classes through the Night School. The instructor was great and you can't beat the cost - around $100 for 8 weeks.

For adults who enjoy life-long learning, but aren't concerned with earning college credits, the courses offered by the Night School are perfect. No tests or grades - just the fun part of learning.
