The Philadelphia region is a gastronomic delight, and two Montgomery County towns stand out with their exceptional dining options, writes Sandy Smith for Philadelphia Magazine.  

Ambler: A Culinary and Cultural Hub  

Ambler’s seven-block stretch of Butler Avenue, extending from the Ambler Regional Rail station, is perfect for date nights and culinary adventures.  

The area features live theater, movies, concerts, art festivals, and an array of international restaurants.  

Notable spots include La Provence, housed in the old train station, and Geronimos, a popular Peruvian eatery. 

 Italian favorite From the Boot is conveniently located in the Ambler Theater building, making dinner and a movie seamless. 

Ardmore: The Main Street of the Main Line  

Ardmore is known for its compact yet diverse culinary scene. Suburban Square hosts a farmers’ market and 13 eateries, while Lancaster Avenue and surrounding streets offer around 30 more dining options.  

Highlights include DePaul’s Table, a modern Italian steakhouse, Local Wine & Kitchen, and Osushi Japanese restaurant.
