About P.J. Whelihan's Pub + Restaurant - Downingtown

PJs is the neighborhood sports pub that just does it better. As in more TVs, so every seat has a front-row view of the next big play. The best jumbo wings in town. A bigger, better, local-er beer lineup. And a team that brings it all together with a... More

★★★★★ 5.0 Thomas Corrigan · Feb 2026

Great food. Me, my twin, and mom, hit up this place about 5:30 PM on a Saturday. We were seated with no wait at all. We sat in the “outdoor” dining area which was quieter and heated. We looked over the menu and decided what we wanted. Our waitress came over and ask what we wanted to drink very soon after we were seated. We enjoy our drinks including a strawberry lemonade, orange creamsicle crush, and a milk. We decided to start off with the Korean BBQ wings. They were amazing. We ordered chicken fingers and fries, French dip, and ribs. We waited just about 20 minutes and our food was at our table. We all enjoyed. I HIGHLY recommend this place. Not just this location, but all of their locations.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Marc Scholtyssek · Feb 2026

Sampler was not good/ terrible. Only thing we ate was the chicken fingers. Tasted greasy/ microwaved. Food has gone downhill. We come for the service and atmosphere. Our server Lauren was great! Staff in general is 10/10. Good atmosphere for kids but if other options existed we’d think twice before coming.

★★★★★ 5.0 G Wolford · Feb 2026

Great place when you just want to grab a quick lunch! I ordered the turkey wrap, french onion soup, and swapped the chips out for the tater tots. All served promptly and was delicious! Atmosphere was great, the different broadcast playing, leaves you a choice on what your preferences are. In and out to continue the days task.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Scott L · Mar 2026

Rather large place and I'm very sure it gets fun. Ashley was my main server as I left shortly after she signed off. She was personable and EXTREMELY efficient. The food I ordered (to go) was surprisingly good. Adult beverages were made correctly and very tasty. I didn't care for the TWO that replaced Ashley as they were more concerned about the regulars. However. I would STILL, highly recommend this establishment.

Sat at the bar on a Sunday afternoon. The bartenders were very attentive! We drank 2 beers and got an order of naked wings. I also had a cheeseburger with Swiss cheese on the Udi gluten-free bun and the crinkle cut fries as a side. This meal met all low FODMAP restrictions.
