A Saturday in each

Sellersville

  • The Washington House Hotel & Restaurant: The dinner-and-a-show half of the Sellersville Theater complex, sharing a wall with the 325-seat STG stage so you can eat and walk next door without moving the car.
  • Sellersville Beverage & Cigar: A family beer distributor since 2006, with a walk-in humidor of a few thousand cigars set behind the cases of craft, import, and domestic.
  • Lake Lenape Waterfalls: The spillway pours over a low WPA-built dam into the East Branch of the Perkiomen Creek, the natural halfway point on the loop that circles this 122-acre park straddling Sellersville and Perkasie.

Souderton

  • The Burger Shop: Burgers on North Main, made to order with the usual crew of sides.
  • Care & Share Thrift Shoppes: The Mennonite-run nonprofit thrift complex where the clothing, variety, and outlet shoppes all share one shopping center and proceeds go through Mennonite Central Committee.
  • Franconia Community Park: Nearly 50 acres next to the Franconia Township building, with 2 miles of walking trails, a playground rebuilt in 2022 with equipment accessible to all, a roller hockey rink, and ice skating when winter cooperates.
