Some things deserve more priority than others and family is certainly one among them, well at least that's what Joseph and Janet Nanouh realized soon after making the journey from Syria to Pennsylvania in the 1970s. What followed years later is Exeter Family Restaurant with each member doing their bit to make this a refreshingly pleasant place to dine in, which also chimes with their catchphrase 'Let our family serve your family'.

The salad choices at are good enough to inspire fitness fanatics with over forty different versions and the sandwich and burger selection is also noteworthy. Evening time entrées include baked meatloaf, roast pork and grilled smoked sausage. Think steaks, think flavorsome cuts and different breeds such as New York strip, Delmonico, Black Diamond and there's even chopped steak with gravy and fried onions.

The merits of a hearty breakfast cannot be underestimated so do it the Exeter way with two eggs any style with fries, toast and jelly, and a choice of meat, a short stack of pancakes or French toast.
