Accessibility — the straight answer.
The first floor is wheelchair accessible. Lounge, event space & restrooms — one level, no steps between them. Seats 80–100. Holds 200 on a buyout.
The Loft at 660 is on the second floor and there is no elevator. What there is, is a stair-climbing chair, and staff trained to operate it. That is how a guest who cannot manage a flight of stairs gets up to The Loft.
Two things we will not blur, because blurring them is how somebody gets stranded:
- It is not step-free access. It is a chair operated by a person, not an elevator you use on your own.
- It has to be arranged in advance. Tell us when you book, so the chair is out and the right people are on.
That is the whole answer. It gets its own page because it is the question people are most tired of having to ask twice.
If anyone coming needs step-free access
Book the first floor & tell us when you book — not on the day.
The first floor is not a consolation room. Two hundred on a buyout, the bar runs, the kitchen runs, and every occasion we host works down there. Weddings. Showers. Memorial luncheons. Corporate dinners. Team banquets. Reunions.
Tell us early and here is what happens with the information… we put you in the right room, plan the entrance, hold the tables that work & brief the floor before you walk in. None of it costs you anything. All of it is easier a month out than an hour out.
We would rather lose a booking than have somebody arrive & find out they cannot get to their own party.
Getting here
The front door is step-free. Straight in off Lancaster Avenue, level, no step & no ramp to negotiate.
Worth knowing before you arrive, because our lot is at the back of the building off Main Avenue. If somebody in your party is using a wheelchair or finds distance hard, the easy version is to drop them at the front on Lancaster, then go round and park. Street parking on Lancaster puts you at the front door too.
Parking. Free private lot behind the building, off Main Avenue. Street parking & public lots a short walk. Valet is available for large private events — arrange it when you book.
Train. Berwyn station sits directly across Lancaster Avenue on SEPTA's Paoli/Thorndale line — and the station itself is wheelchair accessible, with high-level platform sections on both sides and bridge plates to close the gap to the train. That makes us one of the easier rooms on the Main Line to reach without a car.
Ask us anything
Call — 610-220-2367.
The rest of how we run the room — the bar, the house rules, getting home — is on responsible hospitality.
Service animals. Hearing. Sight. A guest who needs to sit near a door, or away from the speakers. Somebody who can manage a few stairs but not a flight — that is exactly who the chair is for, and it is exactly the conversation to have a month out rather than an hour out. None of it is a strange question.
Questions
- Is 660 LIVE wheelchair accessible?
- The first floor is — lounge, event space and restrooms, all on one level. It seats 80–100 and holds 200 on a buyout. The Loft at 660 is on the second floor with no elevator, though a stair-climbing chair can be arranged in advance.
- Can I get to The Loft in a wheelchair?
- There is no elevator, so it is not step-free. There is a stair-climbing chair and staff trained to use it, and that is how guests who cannot manage the stairs get up to The Loft. It needs arranging in advance — tell us at booking and we will have the chair and the right people ready. If it does not suit, say so and we will move the event. The first floor is not a consolation room.
- Which door do I use?
- The front door on Lancaster Avenue — it is level, with no step. Our lot is behind the building off Main Avenue, so the simplest thing is to drop at the front and park round the back.
- Are the restrooms accessible?
- The first-floor restrooms are on the same level as the lounge and event space, with no steps between them.
- Can I get there without a car?
- Yes. Berwyn station is directly across Lancaster Avenue on SEPTA's Paoli/Thorndale line, and the station is wheelchair accessible — high-level platform sections on both sides, with bridge plates to the train.
- What should I tell you when I book?
- That somebody needs step-free access, and roughly what they need. That is enough. We will put you on the first floor, plan the entrance and brief the staff. Tell us at booking rather than on the day — it is a much easier fix a month out.
