History whispers just about everywhere we go in Pennsylvania. And, that means plenty of opportunities for unique experiences – whether we’re purposefully searching out a spot with a rich history or we’re simply sitting down for a delicious meal. Next time you’re on the hunt for a truly memorable dining experience, head to this charming restaurant in Pennsylvania that once served as a neighborhood bank.
Tucked in the charming town of West Grove, Twelves Grill & Cafe sits in a more than 125-year-old historic former bank building.
In fact, you'll still see plenty of reminders of the restaurant's historic past as First National Bank of West Grove, a neighborhood staple as far back as 1900.
Tim and Kristin Smith originally founded Twelves - named in honor of their birthdays and anniversary - in 2008. Today, Knute and Bernadette Mellon own the restaurant, after purchasing it from the Smiths in July of 2018.
Pull up a chair - and on warm days, dine outside on the front porch - and take a peek at the generous menu. (Twelves Grill & Cafe is BYOB, so be sure to bring your favorite alcoholic beverage.)
Dine in this historic former bank, open for lunch Monday through Saturday from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and for dinner from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Or, sit down to Sunday dinner from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.
