NIGHT:
Start with a draft beer or a carefully crafted cocktail and
some tapas and relax— you’ve had a long day! The Butcher
and Barkeep in Harleysville is truly a place you can sit back
and mull over the day’s events. The BLT, Cubano, or the
Short Rib sandwiches melt in your mouth, while the small
plates of avocado bruschetta, bouillabaisse, fried green
tomatoes, St. Louis ribs, or the Tuna Poke all offer a great
nosh. But the real winners here at the B & B are the Shrimp
& Grits (cheesy grits with Carolina shrimp and andou-
ille-bell pepper cream) or the chicken and waffles (cornmeal
waffles, Southern-fried chicken tenders covered in pepper
jelly, and Fruity Pebbles butter) with a side of Sexy Fries—
truffled fries sprinkled in fresh herbs and parmesan. We
promise you’ll never look at fries the same way again.
’feine If you are looking for a fun, eclectic, and super delicious
night out, you’ve found it in 19 Bella. Just outside Skippack
in Cedars, this funky BYOB restaurant serves up lunch and
dinner tapas-style on cute plates (you can even buy some of
the fine and fun china you see). Be prepared for small plates
where everyone can share and have a taste.
Menu items like the lobster mac and cheese, zucchini pan-
cakes, beet salad, local wild mushrooms risotto, farrotto and
beef, and filet mignon Oscar with lump crab, grilled veal chop,
and Portuguese sea scallops all will tickle your taste buds.
Be sure to order several dishes for the table. Or, go wild and
order the Chef’s Choice from the “Blind Menu of Confidence
Tasting” to try new items. Save room for dessert!
You’ll see Justin’s Carriage House on the way into Skip-
pack Village, so stop off and try some food while you’re in
town. The sweet and spicy filet tips are a fan favorite, with
hot crab dip, nachos supreme, black and bleu caesar salad,
and the flatbread pizzas scoring big.
Have dinner, a nightcap, and perhaps even stay over in
Skippack Village. After dining in one of their three restau-
rants, why not stay at the sophisticated Hotel Fiesole?
Mistral and Stefano’s each offer fine dining in Continental
European cuisine while the Ferrari-themed Bella Rossa
offers a more casual Italian dining atmosphere. If you just
want a drink to finish the evening, the Trolley Bar right off
the lobby is a great place to relax in an old, restored trolley.
Plus, there’s live music and entertainment held weekly in
the Rathskeller.
