A 20min drive from hotels in Center Valley and a 25min drive from hotels in Quakertown. This is a nice mall Kayla and I go to occasionally to shop around. There is a smaller strip of shops out front of the mall and a Dave and Busters across the street.
If you're feeling luckier than usual, this is a huge Casino that Kayla and I go to on a night we think we are feeling lucky. Attached to the Casino is also a shopping strip that has some more upscale stores to them. There is also an event center attached which has a variety or artists come through like comedians, bands, game shows, etc. Maybe there will be something that peaks your interest while you are here for the wedding.
If there is one place Kayla and I go to that has an immense variety, this is it. We love coming the main street Bethlehem to either go to events that are happening or eat at some good local restaurants. Some places we recommend are Mama Ninas (italian restaurant), Fegleys (brewery/food), McCarthys Red Stag Pub, and Hotel B Ice Cream Parlor. The local shops down the strip have a wide variety for almost anyone. There is a parking garage a block or two away from the main street that is pretty cheap.
