HAVERTOWN, PA — The Main Line's newest dining spot is officially open for business after about a year's worth of developments.

Al Pastor is open 1 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sundays at 13 W. Benedict Ave. in Havertown.

"Al Pastor Havertown is our expression of a modern Cantina that on the outside takes inspiration from the beer and wine gardens you see in Center City," Stove and Co. Restaurant Group co-owner Justin Weathers said. "We want to combine big flavors in our street food and drinks with big outdoor vibes and translate that to the suburban setting to be enjoyed with friends at the bar, happy hour with co-workers, and out in the margarita garden with your kids running around. There will be salsa, Latin and reggae favorites to set the scene as guests enjoy games on bright summer days."
