The popular Third Thursdays on State Street return in 2024 for a new season of outdoor dining, extended shopping hours, live music, and family-friendly activities. Third Thursdays bring the community together and support restaurants and small businesses on State Street.

State Street is closed from Broad to Center Streets from 5pm to 10pm every Third Thursday from May through October.

Festivities begin at 5:30pm.

To ensure an outdoor table, we recommend making a reservation directly with your restaurant of choice. The following restaurants set up tables on State Street for Third Thursdays: Grain Craft Bar + Kitchen (first come only), Lily Asian Cuisine, La Verona, Portabellos, Trattoria La Tavola, and Sweet Amelia’s. Other dining options within the event area include Café Emís and Piccola Venezia.

Inside the Market at Liberty Place, still close to all the action, you’ll find: Kaboburritos, Kennett Chicken, Verde Plant Based Cafe, State Street Pizza, Liberty Place Pub, Burger Stop, and Ji-In Korean Eatery.

Beyond State Street, there are more great eateries in Kennett Square with outdoor seating in the evening, including: Braeloch Brewing,  Sang Tong Thai, Letty’s Tavern, and The Creamery.
