Welcome to Narberth

The Borough of Narberth is located off the beaten path and close to everything at the same time. Downtown  Narberth is just the third stop out of Center City on the R-5 train. It’s unusual for a Main Line downtown because it’s not located right on Lancaster or Montgomery Avenue – it’s actually nestled right between the two.

Visitors who see if for the first time often remark that downtown Narberth is a real blast from the past. Haverford Avenue, Narberth’s main street, features several unique stores and restaurants, including many that have been operating continuously for decades. There’s a locally owned pharmacy, hardware store, toy store, grocery store, as well as a “5&10” that’s been carrying everything since long before there were Targets and WalMarts! Narberth has several restaurants downtown, and right around the corner you’ll see the marquis for the local movie theater.

Narberth has modern touches as well, with an eclectic blend of artsy stores, boutiques, galleries, salons, spas, eateries, and one of the area’s only Japanese grocery stores, Maido!

The surrounding communities probably know Narberth best for all the family-friendly events sponsored by the Borough and its many organizations. These include First Fridays, the Great Leprechaun Hunt, the Easter Egg Hunt, Fourth of July Fireworks, the Narberth Music Festivals, Summer Concerts in the Park, Witches of Narberth Scavenger Hunt, the Halloween Parade, and the December Dickens Festival.
