Heading to the shore is the default summer trip, but this year the thought of crowded boardwalks, beach traffic, and shielding a bucket of French fries from dive-bombing seagulls had me less than enthusiastic. Instead, I headed to Peddlers Village in the rolling countryside of Bucks County, Pennsylvania<\/strong>.<\/a> One of the state\u2019s most unique destinations, Peddler\u2019s Village is a colonial 18th-century style village with over 65+ open-air shops, a 66 room inn, and even a restored working 1922 antique carousel. With 7 full service restaurants, a taproom, a wine tasting room, and gourmet treats of all kinds, Peddler\u2019s Village is a playground for foodies.<\/span><\/p>\n

With Pennsylvania country charm nestled in every corner, Peddlers Village is like a real life Mayberry that attracts visitors from all over year-round. One of my favorite things about Peddler\u2019s Village is that in between treasure seeking in postcard perfect country shops, you can also enjoy the outdoors as you stroll through winding brick pathways with lush blooming gardens. It\u2019s a wonderful way to enjoy the summer weather while getting some shopping in.<\/span><\/p>\n

Peddler\u2019s Village History. How it Began With a Farmers Market and a California Dream.<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"Peddlers\"PeddlersAfter a few trips to California in the late 1950s and early \u201960s, Earl Jamison, a lifelong Bucks County resident who ran a farmers market, found himself in awe of the romantic storybook-style architecture he discovered in Carmel-by-the-Sea and Disneyland. So much so, he was inspired to create something similar back home. With an ability to turn his dreams into reality like Disney himself, Jamison got to work. Securing a $6000 loan from his uncle, Earl purchased an old 6-acre chicken farm in the small town of Lahaska, PA. Seamlessly blending the farm\u2019s original historic buildings into the design of his charming colonial shopping village, Earl opened Peddler\u2019s Village with only 1 restaurant (the Cock n\u2019 Bull) and 14 shops. With much success and growth over the years, Peddler\u2019s Village now spans over 42 acres and is considered one of the region\u2019s favorite destinations for shopping and events year-round.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stories In The Sand at Peddler\u2019s Village<\/span>\"\"\"\"<\/h2>\n

All summer long, guests can experience the beach in Bucks County during Stories in Sand, a Village-wide display of larger-than-life sand sculptures that pay homage to stories and characters revered for generations, including Brothers Grimm fairy tales, Peter Pan, The Jungle Book, Winnie-the-Pooh, Mother Goose stories, and Alice in Wonderland.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Children and families can enjoy toy-filled sand boxes, and on Saturdays at 11 a.m., free storytime sessions on the Village Green presented by Peddler\u2019s Village shops.<\/span><\/p>\n

Visitors can also visit shops and restaurants in the Courtyard neighborhood to enter a drawing to win a prize basket valued at more than $825; one basket each will be awarded at the end of June, July, and August.<\/span><\/p>\n

I walked into Skip\u2019s shop \u201cnot a fudge person\u201d and left there obsessed with every fudge Skip offered us to try.

Did you know that honey is one of the few foods that never spoils? Or that two tablespoons of honey could fuel a bee\u2019s flight around the world? There\u2019s no doubt that bees are incredible, but after a recent visit to Peddler\u2019s Village and a chat with shop owner Stephen, I now have an even greater appreciation for these pollinators and the wonder that is honey. Stephen, a food chemist who\u2019s an expert in a technique called withholding, knows just what it takes to encourage plants to produce super-concentrated flower nectar that is super irresistible to thirsty bees and also <\/span>determines the final flavor of their honey<\/span>. So with 12 bee colonies buzzing on farms all across the country, Sticky Situations offers artisanal raw honey in an incredible selection of flavors I\u2019ve never seen anywhere else. The honey here is 100% raw, which means it\u2019s not heated or processed, and this is important in preserving the honey\u2019s beneficial nutrients and flavors.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"StickySituations\"\"StickySituations\"<\/span><\/p>\n

We had a great time tasting all the honey here while discovering where each was from and suggestions of what each could be paired with. We had to take home the dark chocolate, habanero, ginger, and anise honey, but their blueberry, raspberry, and green apple honey had me dreaming up ways I could infuse them into my next baking project. You\u2019re going to want to stock up for yourself (and we don\u2019t blame you), but stop in if you need a unique gift for the foodie in your life. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

To continue the gourmet tasting experience, we headed next door to Stephen\u2019s sister store Extra Virgin. Inspired by a passion for the fresh high-quality foods he enjoyed growing up on the Amalfi Coast, owner Stephen opened Extra Virgin with the purpose of offering premium artisan olive oils and infused bottles of vinegar. This creative shop offers an in-store experience similar to a wine tasting. It\u2019s all about the flavors here and as you browse the shop, you\u2019re encouraged to give everything a taste. When you find your favorites, you can then have your oil and vinegar selections blended at their bar so you can discover which combinations speak to your palette oil. Pretty cool right?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

One delicious flavor combination we tried that Stephen referred to as \u201cSicily in a jar,\u201d was a mix of their Meyer lemon-infused olive oil and their Blood Orange Vinegar. Absolutely perfect for summer! Besides olive, Extra Virgin also has a variety of other flavor-infused oils like their green tea avocado oil, guacamole avocado oil, toasted walnut grapeseed oil, and sriracha grapeseed oil. There\u2019s also imported Italian pasta in a variety of shapes and colors that will knock your socks off.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Another Belgium born waffle made famous by the city it was named after, <\/span>Liege waffles are made with a brioche-style yeast dough instead of a batter.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Before being pressed they\u2019re sprinkled with a coarse sugar that creates a lovely caramelization on the outside of the waffle once heated.

Don\u2019t leave without trying one of their house-made desserts. We ordered the Deep Dish Apple Pie served with creamy vanilla ice cream and drizzled with caramel. It was the perfect sweet ending to a delicious dinner. <\/span>With <\/span>the Cock \u2018n Bull\u2019s<\/span> colonial Pennsylvania country charm<\/span> and the wonderful service we received from our server Jean, who has incredibly been there for over 35 years, there\u2019s no doubt will be making a return.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Let me tell you about the amazing experience we had at the newly renovated Red Fox Lounge. This casual spot, located right in the Cock \u2018n Bull Restaurant lobby, turned out to be so much more than we expected.<\/span><\/p>\n

Initially, our plan was to swing by for some cocktails and a quick appetizer. However, the atmosphere at Red Fox was so inviting that we couldn\u2019t resist staying for the entire meal. It was a great decision!<\/span><\/p>\n

I have to give a special shoutout to our bartender, Dave. He was a true expert and guided us through the cocktail and food selections flawlessly. His recommendations were spot on!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

To start off, we opted for the Charcuterie Board. It was a tasty combination of cured meats, cheeses, crostini, pork rillette, glazed walnuts, and whole grain mustard.<\/span><\/p>\n

Next up were the Jerk Chicken Drumettes \u2013 served in a skillet with pineapple salsa and lime. These were not your average chicken wings. They were large, succulent drumettes seasoned with Jamaican jerk spice, delivering just the right amount of authentic flavor and heat.<\/span><\/p>\n

But the real star of the show was the Johnny Cakes & Shrimp Creole. The dish featured a generous portion of etouffee-style shrimp accompanied by griddled corn cakes, also known as Johnny Cakes. The combination of sweet, savory, and spicy flavors left us craving more.<\/span><\/p>\n

And, of course, we couldn\u2019t leave without trying the Carrot Cake for dessert. Topped with pineapple coconut chutney, white chocolate raisin bark, and drizzled with caramelized pineapple sauce, this carrot cake was truly exceptional. In fact, it\u2019s some of the best carrot cake we\u2019ve ever had. We\u2019re really hoping it remains a permanent fixture on their menu!<\/span><\/p>\n

We had an absolutely delightful meal at Hart\u2019s Tavern. This place exudes a super casual and timeless old-school pub vibe that never goes out of style. As soon as we heard that their menu had been completely revamped by their new chef, we couldn\u2019t wait to try the new dishes.<\/span><\/p>\n

To start off, we had Citrus Shrimp Tacos, which were bursting with flavor from the pickled carrots, verde slaw, and creamy avocado crema. We also enjoyed the Quinoa Arugula Salad, featuring pistachio-goat cheese medallions, quinoa, arugula, chickpeas, pickled grapes, red onion, and a zesty lemon and honey herb dressing.<\/span><\/p>\n

Next up was the Caprese Sandwich, a true classic with a twist. It showcased marinated tomato slices, creamy fresh mozzarella, and a delightful basil pesto, between perfectly toasted brioche bread.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"The\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

The Italian Roast Pork Sandwich with Buffalo Fries at Hart\u2019s Tavern<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Moving on to the main courses, the Italian Roast Pork Sandwich is absolutely stellar. It\u2019s filled with tender pulled pork, sweet pickled peppers, a tantalizing long hots spread, aged provolone, and garlic aioli. The Buffalo Fries on the side turned up the heat and added an extra kick of flavor.<\/span><\/p>\n

For dessert, we couldn\u2019t resist trying the Tropical Tapioca Pudding. It was a creamy coconut tapioca delight, topped with a vibrant tropical fruit salsa and finished with a delicate coconut tuile.<\/span><\/p>\n

Every dish we tried was really tasty, and the friendly and efficient service made our experience even more enjoyable. Hart\u2019s Tavern also offers a variety of craft beers, both bottled and on draft, as well as a selection of wines by the glass and bottle. If you\u2019re in the mood for some signature cocktails, they have you covered too.<\/span><\/p>\n
