  1. The fact Wimpy and Dee’s is on this list at all made me stop reading this article.

  2. The Lazy Egg in Honey Brook is really Chester County’s hidden secret. The food is awesome, the prices reasonable and the portions ridiculously large. The place is clean and the staff is friendly. It may look frumpy on the outside but it’s definitely worth the visit.
