Admission was reasonable and enjoyed the self-guided part while waiting for the next tram departure time. There was everything you could imagine - except one thing! A TELEX MACHINE (which I used to operate). When I asked the staff if they had one none of them even knew what I was talking about (early 20's)! We took the tram tour and really enjoyed it. The tram moved at a nice pace so you could really take in everything. So much to see - everywhere. It was a really fun way to spend a few hours on a rainy day! But I urge you to visit rain or shine!

The tram car goes at a super slow speed so you have time to take everything in. The tour is guided by a pre-recorded audio track but sometimes the driver will provide information as well. The museum also has a small walkable area to explore. There's also popcorn, candy, and drinks to purchase. Some of the items are truly impressive and there's definitely plenty for everyone to point out and find and enjoy. Highly recommend this fun attraction.

Random first thought on entering the parking lot: I've never been to a place like this where the…read moreeducation center is the same size as the actual arboretum. Jokes aside, while that hyperbole is of course not true, thematically it is. As another Yelper pointed out, this is not Tyler or Morris by a long shot. This is basically a small down and back loop with a few short side trails that crisscross the main path, Jenkins Road. The below is a good map that shows that every trail they have here is 1/4 mile or less (sometimes much less) and that the main path is paved blacktop. www.jenkinsarboretum.org/visit/map/ During our 75ish minutes here, we didn't see anyone (I didn't expect to considering it was a Friday afternoon in winter still with snow on the ground) and the parking lot was nearly empty. In terms of what lives/grows here, the below from their site lays it all out. www.jenkinsarboretum.org/garden-highlights/ If you go, thankfully it's free and the hours are basically 9am until dusk year-round. By no means is this a destination stop but we had some time to kill before the next activity and Jenkins provided some nice alternative programming that was enjoyable.

An easy choice for a laid back afternoon in King of Prussia. We stopped into Workhorse Brewing Company for a Saturday lunch and walked away genuinely impressed. The space itself is massive and well laid out, making it ideal for groups while still feeling comfortable and relaxed. Even better, it is kid friendly, which makes it a great option when you want a brewery vibe without excluding the whole family. The drink program really shines here. The beer lineup was solid across the board, with styles for just about everyone. What surprised us most was the cocktail menu. They were running seasonal Christmas renditions, including an Old Fashioned that was festive without being gimmicky and genuinely excellent. It is refreshing to find a brewery that takes cocktails seriously. Food came out quickly and was better than expected. Everything we tried was tasty, but their take on the traditional Philly cheesesteak stood out and is absolutely worth ordering. Though a slight miss for the buffalo chicken cheeseteak, as it was dry and under seasoned. Overall, Workhorse is a great place to spend an afternoon. Whether you are meeting friends, bringing a group or even showing up with kids in tow, it delivers on drinks, food and atmosphere. We will definitely be back.

The large bar and dining areas will easily hold huge crowd Sadly our visit here will probably be our last. The vibe here is most definitely millennial driven. No menus - digital code to directly order from completely eliminating the need for wait staff. You order online pay online and your food is brought out. Plates, utensils, and water are all self service. If you want to sample some more beers. You must order them through the app as well. This discouraged us from ordering more than we would have had there been an actual waiter/waitress. The lack of personal interaction was disheartening. The food was decent but nothing exceptional as we sampled the wings. Buffalo chicken egg rolls and cheese steak. We would have opted to order some desert "bombs" as well but again, the lack of wait staff had us reluctant to splurge. From what we could see the venue offers lots to do with corn hole, bingo nights, live music and more but we came on a weeknight with nothing going on. I would think if we came on an event night we may have had a different experience. Granting stars for the cleanliness, possible potential for live music, the edibility of the food but for us it's a one and done.

Yesterday I visited Cork & Candles to celebrate my 35th birthday with my fiancé, and while we…read moreenjoyed spending time together, the overall experience fell short - especially for my special occasion. The host was frequently absent and didn't provide much guidance or engagement during the experience. It felt a bit like we were left to navigate things on our own. Additionally, there was no acknowledgment of my birthday while there, which was disappointing given that this was the purpose of our visit. Even a small gesture or simple "happy birthday" would have gone a long way in making the experience feel more personal and celebratory. For the price point, I did expect a more elevated and attentive experience. Overall, it's a nice spot, I just wish the experience felt a bit more intentional - especially for moments you're celebrating.

I looked on the website and I believe you have to book online only to reserve your spot. On the website, you can decide what experience you would like to have such as their signature candle in which you make two candles, the candle of the month or a cereal bowl candle experience. I chose the signature candle which was 75.00. Once I arrived, I noticed that the shop was cute and creatively decorated. I had the pleasure of meeting my host Becky who was sooo personable and simply Ahmazing! Becky explained how candle making works and discussed the scent bar in which I could choose between earthy, fruity or exotic scents for the candles and you can also select two candle jars. I decided to get a bigger candle jar which was an extra 10.00. Overall i became a chandler and made two beeyutiful candles and Becky gave me healing crystals and the large candle jar free of charge!! I was so grateful and appreciative being as tho It took me along time to accept nice things and blessings from people, I would always block it... but that's another story! Cork and candles!!! I will defintely be back for that cereal bowl candle which is also pre made for purchasing along with other creative candles. Great for couples, girls nite out, birthdays etc!

Cirque is across the street in the parking lot of the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center. Our room was ready when we arrived, and check-in was easy. Everything was in order in our room with one exception. The toilet tank had a sound indicating that a small amount of water was constantly running. This was not loud enough to hear or disturb us when we were not in the bathroom. It did not interfere with our ability to sleep. We therefore waited until checkout to inform the front desk. We had a quick bite at the restaurant, the Garden Grille & Bar, before heading over to Cirque du Soleil. The lobby and restaurant area are attractive. If and when Cirque returns, this Hilton Garden Inn will be high on our list.

When the bill arrived, I reviewed the screen and the 20% tip was pre-chosen. While I thought it was a little strange, I actually thought our server did BETTER than 20% so I gave a custom tip just above 20%. After leaving and walking a few blocks, we heard a man yelling and turned around to see our server. He was verbally accosting us blocks from the restaurant for NOT leaving a tip. Startled, I went back and was met by an agitated server demanding a tip. Confused, I went with him and fixed the error, but this was embarrassing not truly my fault. I was made to feel like a criminal. The iPad was impersonal and confusing because the tip did not stick. The establishment needs to DO BETER for both their customers and their employees. The iPad was a problem and the lengths this server had to go through for a living wage was unacceptable.

The bar was very busy with lots of game watchers viewing the many large screen TVs. But we still had excellent service by the bartender and our wait person. The bar was cozy and friendly and the music was fantastic! But what surprised me most was the quality of the food! We ordered roast pork sliders and Brussel sprouts. Plus, my husband ordered the ahi tuna bites, which I thought was a risky choice at a local Taphouse. All of the food was super fresh and very high quality. The roast pork was lean and juicy - not at all salty or over seasoned. It was served with crispy home-cooked potato chips. The Brussel sprouts were deliciously charred. Best of all was the ahi tuna which was fresh and delightfully presented on crispy tortillas with tasty red peppers. Our wait person told us that everything on the menu is prepared fresh in-house. And it was all delicious. I hope I get a chance to return soon to try some additional menu items at the Eagleville Taphouse.

You won't receive a warm welcome unless maybe you are a regular. The flatbreads are pretty good, the short rib is really great-- I would definitely recommend that!

Cheesesteak eggrolls were good. I've given this place multiple visits and every time it's unfortunately just not worth it.

If my movie is in Theaters 1 or 2, I'll go elsewhere. (The screens are too small, the theaters too long -- what can I say? I've become picky in my old age.) So, that's how we ended up at Regal. Worth the half hour drive. This is a modern movie house with large screens and comfortable stadium seating. Concessions don't interest me, but this one seems to have everything, including margaritas.
