ABOUT US

Broad Run Golfer's Club is located in the West Chester, Pennsylvania countryside. With an enormous 372 acre canvas, world-renowned golf course designer, Rees Jones carefully sculpted this stunning masterpiece. Broad Run Golfer's Club offers premier playing conditions, tranquil beauty and unsurpassed customer service. Stretching 6,826 yards with a par 72, the majestic layout takes full advantage of its dramatic elevation changes and skillful design features presenting a worthy challenge to golfers of all levels.  Set on the beautiful hillside of the course is the Boardley House Grille.

 

In 1791, Judge Bordley and his wife, Sarah, moved to Pennsylvania, where they kept a house in Philadelphia and a large farm in Chester County. It is on this farm where Bordley conducted many of his agricultural experiments and published his written works. In the Bordley family memoirs one historian quotes, “When this independent farmer’s foreign beers, wines, porters and ales began to diminish in his cellars, he started a brewery of his own, and planted a vineyard. When his beer was fermented, he put it away in casks made by his own carpenters, from timber cut down out of his own woods, and he even manufactured his own salt from the Chesapeake Bay, rather than being dependent upon Britain for anything.”

 

We at the Bordley House Grille are inspired by John Bordley’s dedication to artisan food, craft beers, and local agriculture. Much like crops, we believe that menus should be rotated with the seasons to ensure the freshest quality. And while we haven’t yet begun to make our own salt, our kitchen strives to uphold the do-it-yourself spirit embodied by John Bordley and Historic Chester County.

JDRF is the leading global organization funding type 1 diabetes (T1D) research. JDRF’s goal is to progressively remove the impact of T1D from people’s lives until we achieve a world without T1D. JDRF collaborates with a wide spectrum of partners and is the only organization with the scientific resources, regulatory influence, and a working plan to better treat, prevent, and eventually cure T1D.  As the largest charitable supporter of T1D research, JDRF is currently sponsoring $568 million in scientific research in 17 countries. In 2012 alone, JDRF provided more than $110 million to T1D research.

 

T1D touches the lives of several of our local families.  The Boardley House Grille and Broad Run Golf Course want to make a difference in our local community.  That is why we have decided to support such a worthy cause!
