Top films, just a little later than the big guys. 1950's atmosphere, almost 1950's prices. Enjoy a shake/rattle/roll every time a train goes buy 40' outside the side doors. Wonderful. A treasure to our community.

Everyone has to come to this stadium for a fun day with the family. There is a really good variety of food and drink that you can purchase. The prices are more than affordable. If you are going to a day game, make sure to put on the suntan lotion. You are very exposed to the sun, that would be the only bad thing I could say about this field. There is a cozy "Beer Garden" where you can have a adult beverage away from the crowd.

Visited over the weekend because we were camping nearby and wanted to check out a local brewery. Very impressed with the selection of beers; my favorite was the "hot chocolate". So spicy and delicious! But honestly, everything was great...my husband and I each got a flight of beers and enjoyed them all. We ended up getting a growler of the double IPA to go. We were also able to bring our dog and sat outside on the patio. The owner came out and chatted with us for a while and was very friendly. I definitely recommend this brewery if you're anywhere near the area!

My husband and I took our adult children and our grandchildren to America on Wheels Museum during the Christmas school break. What a delightful experience. Everyone was so kind to the children (ages 14 to 6). In addition to the cars, we really enjoyed the multiple train displays. For the largest display, there was a scavenger hunt for the children to find fun objects on the display. When they were done, each received a candy cane and small gift. Smiles all around. Additionally, at 12:30 PM, there was a performance in the 'diner' room. In addition to a guitarist singing songs about different transportation vehicles, there were activities for the children to do. The most favorite was decorating an upside down sugar cone into a Christmas tree. Decorate now; eat later. So, take your children. It's great.

Great mini putt for the whole family. Two courses at one location. Very challenging courses and some very long holes. Courses are in great shape and very clean. There is a pavilion nearby for birthday parties or larger groups to sit and eat. They have a food truck on site selling hot dogs and hamburgers and an ice dream shop as well. Plenty of free parking. Located close to Saucon Valley Promenade outdoor mall for other food choices.
Highly recommend PUTT U for family fun.

Funk Brewing Company resides in a building that is easy to overlook. It's a large industrial type building with one large garage door. It's very popular as noted by the crowds on a Saturday afternoon. The beers we sampled were quite good and the staff was eager to please. Don't forget to check out their website as they list the various food trucks that will be there on a monthly basis.

My wife spent some time as a child in Ohio and is quite addicted to Lebanon Sweet Bologna, so I was shocked to see it here, along with a lot of other Amish-type meats and sides. I picked up a bunch of salads and some of the meats, and really wished I had not had such a long drive or I would have bought more. Wonderful looking vegetables, wine, pickles, really a superb place. I only saw a fraction of it as well. Looking forward to going back.

A wonderful place to walk, lots of identifying markers. Rippling stream, and wooded paths. Lovely monument in the center to rest and listen to the birds. If you are a resident in the East Penn School District there are lots of programs throughout the year. Programs are available at no cost, but you must register (if there are too many registrations there is a lottery).
