Bay Pony Inn

508 Old Skippack Rd
Lederach, PA 19438

Andrea C. writes: I had my wedding shower at the Bay Pony Inn. The "banquet room" is a narrow, long room that seats approximately 20-25 people. If you fill it to maximum capacity, it's a bit of a tight squeeze. My sister booked the event and said the pricing was very…

Heng's Thai Cuisine

1156 Baltimore Pike

Neighborhood: Mill Creek

4345 Lancaster Ave
Philadelphia, PA 19104

9 Market Sts
Philadelphia, PA 19102

Parvin's Pharmacy Prescription Department

30 N Bryn Mawr Ave
Bryn Mawr, PA 19010

Lauren H. writes: Parvin's is an old school, family-owned pharmacy and drug store. It reminds me of the one that was in my hometown before it was bought out my evil corporate assmonkeys CVS. As a result, the prices here are a bit inflated, but y'all should support…
