At Main Line Kitchen Design, we specialize in creating beautiful, functional kitchens for homeowners throughout the Delaware Valley. Based in Bala Cynwyd, Pennsylvania, our company brings extensive design experience and award-winning expertise to every project. Led by owner and senior designer Paul McAlary, we provide personalized kitchen design services, cabinetry selection, and comprehensive renovation planning. Our designers have received numerous local and national awards, reflecting our commitment to thoughtful layouts and exceptional results. We offer eight nationally distributed cabinet lines, providing homeowners with quality choices at competitive prices. Our work includes kitchen remodeling, cabinet installations, countertop selections, and appliance integration.

Our design process begins with an appointment and an in-home visit to measure your kitchen and discuss your goals. Using these measurements, we develop preliminary computer designs that we review and refine together. Detailed plans then incorporate cabinetry, flooring, appliances, and other essential elements. Rather than maintaining an elaborate public showroom, we operate by appointment to focus our resources on professional design and affordable cabinetry. Clients can examine cabinet construction, compare hundreds of door styles and finishes, and review three-dimensional kitchen renderings. We take pride in helping homeowners transform outdated spaces into attractive, practical kitchens that complement their homes and individual preferences.

Our streamlined kitchen design process allows us to allocate more resources to customer projects rather than expensive retail operations. We showcase eight cabinetry brands and their door styles without maintaining full kitchen displays. After receiving a small deposit, we spend approximately eight hours measuring and creating preliminary plans, delivering detailed design attention alongside competitively priced cabinetry.

The Designers were very patient during the entire process. Making such a big decision can be difficult. With so many styles and colors available , they took the time to help me envision my perfect kitchen. I love my kitchen!

From design to execution, MLKD was there every step of the way. Working with our designer, Ed was an easy and natural experience. He provided input, but also let us have our voice in the creative process. The kitchen came out beautifully, and we love cooking and entertaining in it everyday!

Main Line Kitchen has now provided us with two kitchens. The free design ideas were outstanding and really elevated the space and the cabinets are great, very well made at a great price. I would highly recommend them

We were very happy with Main Line, especially their responsiveness to issues with the doors after the fact! One of our cabinet doors was warped and Chris Rossetti immediately swung by, determined it was covered under warranty and got a new one ordered. He even reordered it a second time after determining that the stain color was not satisfactory (I didn't even notice the difference until he pointed it out!)

We went with a more base-level product for our laundry room because we thought it was worth spending the 'big bucks' on custom inset cabinets in our kitchen, but the laundry room cabinets honestly have such a 'wow' factor and our experience with Main Line was much much better than with Village Handcrafted, where we got the kitchen cabinets. Quality is better and service is far superior.

Amazing kitchen and basement kitchenette designed by Jeremy at Main Line Kitchen design. Jeremy spent months following up on the kitchen details as the contractor was completing the work.

Main Line Kitchen Design is awesome and I highly recommend them. Chris Rosetti was creative and turned our small galley kitchen and mudroom into a cohesive and functional space. He was incredibly responsive and patient with all of our questions and requests. Working with Main Line Kitchen Design made an overwhelming project manageable and fun.

We are completely elated with our newly renovated kitchen. After filling out an online form Paul called the next day and explained the entire process. Of course, we chose to move forward. The initial contact with our designer Jeremy L went well and we soon saw 2 complete 3D renderings of what our kitchen could become. Jeremy proposed moving an existing door to maximize our space, and we were floored. The design, workmanship of the contractor and professionalism of the whole team was exceptional. Our new kitchen is phenomenal; it is a functional work of art. Mainline Kitchen Design are true artisans. My wife and I are eternally grateful for the care and experience of you all for helping our dreams become a reality., Thank you from, Mark and Rhonda!

We had an outstanding experience with Main Line Kitchen Design from start to finish. Their team demonstrated exceptional project management, clear and consistent communication, and a genuine commitment to quality. They stayed closely involved throughout the process, checking in regularly and ensuring the contractor’s work met their high standards.
Paul, one of the designers, brought deep expertise and creativity to the project. He consistently offered thoughtful, innovative solutions that elevated both the look and functionality of our kitchen. This is in my opinion what truly sets Main Line Kitchen apart: their ability to strike the perfect balance between a beautiful design and a highly functional kitchen and workspace. They also respected the project timeline, which we greatly appreciated. We couldn’t be happier with the result and highly recommend them.

We recently renovated our kitchen, dining room, and mudroom. We selected Main Line Kitchen Design based on a family member’s recent outstanding kitchen remodel (different designer). We were assigned to Jeremy who was very patient and pleasant to work with on our project. He helped guide the design in a way to maximize our smaller footprint in a manner that did not feel cookie cutter or forced (I.e. an island where there was clearly no room to do so). The showroom is pretty basic but plenty cabinet options to choose from there. Our counters came from recommended vendor, and that process was also uncomplicated and not stressful. We appreciated that the Main Line team carefully documented and measured before construction. Even with the diligent prep, there was a problem with one of the corner drawers opening after hardware installation. We were fortunate this was our only true hiccup in this project. The company was very quick to come up with a solution. Despite having to wait a few extra weeks to iron everything out, we were able to experience and enjoy our new space. We truly didn’t realize how limited our space was until it was reimagined. Thank you Jeremy and MLKD team for your hard work and expertise!

The team at Main Line Kitchen Design is INCREDIBLE. This was my first major renovation project, and Chris was incredibly patient with me and helpful every step of the way. He didn't just design a beautiful kitchen, he also helped me hire a contractor, problem solved with us throughout the project, managed delivery and installation of our cabinets in person, and returned frequently to make sure everything was going as planned. I could not recommend him and this business more highly. Chris even came back to our home several months after the project finished to adjust a crooked cabinet door. Truly the most supportive and knowledgable people I have ever had the pleasure of working with.

I had a wonderful experience working with Jeremy and his team at Mainline Kitchen.

From start to finish, the entire process was smooth, organized, and handled with a high level of professionalism. Jeremy is incredibly knowledgeable and detail-oriented—he really takes the time to understand your vision and bring it to life in a way that feels both functional and beautiful.

What stood out most was the level of care and communication. His team was reliable, respectful of our home, and committed to doing the job right. You can tell they take pride in their work, and it shows in the final result.

If you’re looking for a team you can trust with your kitchen remodel, I highly recommend Jeremy and Mainline Kitchen. Truly a wonderful job all around.

Chris did an amazing job with our kitchen, pantry, living room built ins, mud room bench, vanities and laundry room designs. We couldn’t be happier with the cabinets and the designs. Chris helped us pick the exact cabinets for the application and the budget for each space. As a builder and contractor I was amazed that not one piece was short with this enormous order. I highly recommend Main Line Kitchen Design!

Jeremy and Paul were both amazing to work with! In my initial contact, Paul explained the process clearly and provided really helpful information that made my decision to work with MLK. Jeremy gave great initial designs that stretched imagination. He was very professional and easy to work with as we iterated different options and materials. They set me up with an amazing contractor as well! Overall great experience! Would work with them again!

We absolutely loved working with Christopher to design our kitchen!!! Together we came up with a design that maximized our exiting footprint for a kitchen that is very functional for cooking and for entertaining. I would highly recommend Main Line Kitchen Design for kitchen renovation.

Our new kitchen is now complete and we can happily report that we were very pleased with our overall experience with Main Line Kitchen Design. Chris did an excellent job in creating a kitchen design that enabled us to keep our "eat in" kitchen, yet modernize the layout. He came up with an idea that no one else had thought of! He was able to skillfully help us navigate through all of the decisions that we needed to make. We truly appreciated the fact that Main Line Kitchen was able to offer us the names of several contractors instead of having to search for contractors on our own. We were well pleased with the contractor we chose. Thank you for helping us make the plan of a remodeled kitchen a reality.

Main Line Kitchen Design has been a pleasure to work with. Their team is on top of every aspect of the kitchen remodeling process. Offering a wide variety of cabinets allows my customers to select a quality cabinet that meets their budgetary needs. Whether you’re looking for custom cabinetry or something more affordable that does not sacrifice quality they have you covered. I personally work with Jeremy and his experience in construction and creative ability to put a design together are unmatched.
