"Cobblestone paths, gazebos, and garden walkways give Peddler’s Village its storybook charm in the Bucks County countryside," said the USA TODAY 10BEST judges in 2025. "The 42-acre shopping center features over 60 specialty stores, a range of dining options, and the cozy Golden Plough Inn. Seasonal festivals like the Strawberry and Scarecrow Festivals add to its appeal as a year-round spot for shopping, strolling, and celebrating.”

Peddler’s Village, one of Philadelphia’s most popular attractions, comprises 65 specialty shops and boutiques, many of which are locally owned and operated. Locals and visitors alike are drawn to the destination for its distinctive shopping experience — set among lush gardens, featuring a curated mix of collectibles, handcrafted items, toys, apparel, artwork, and more, along with the personalized service from its small-business owners.

In addition to its shops, Peddler’s Village is home to numerous restaurants, the 67-room on-property inn, the Golden Plough Inn, and Giggleberry Fair, an indoor family fun center featuring a restored antique carousel, game room, and more.
