Lifestyle Shopping Center Adds Popular Pocono-based Brewery
CENTER VALLEY, Pa. – April 16, 2025 – Promenade Saucon Valley, an open-air lifestyle shopping center in Center Valley, Pennsylvania (www.promenadesauconvalley.com), today announced the addition of Barley Creek Taproom, a Pennsylvania microbrewery offering Pennsylvania-made craft brews, spirits and wines. The new 3,119-square-foot restaurant, expected to open this summer, will be located in between Melt and Kome.
“Promenade Saucon Valley is proud to have been selected as the newest home for Barley Creek Taproom, a well-known and respected regional brewery,” said Patrick Turner, general manager of the shopping center. “Their reputation for quality and community engagement makes them a perfect fit for our center.”
Guests can look forward to a menu of delectable food offerings, including flatbreads, soups, salads, burgers and more along with a unique blend of award-winning Barley Creek craft brews and small-batch spirits and a great guest selection of other Pennsylvania craft brews, spirits, and wines, all in a fun and relaxed environment.
“Barley Creek has had a great relationship with guests in the Lehigh Valley for nearly 30 years,” said Trip Ruvane, co-founder of Barley Creek Brewing Company. “We have many regulars who drive up to visit our Pocono Mountain locations, as well as those who buy our craft brews, spirits, and ready-to-drink cocktails at fine establishments all across Northeast PA, including at nearby Coca Cola Park. And now we’re thrilled to be bringing our newest Taproom to this truly beautiful and unique setting at Promenade Saucon Valley.”
The addition of Barley Creek Taproom to the center’s tenant lineup not only adds a new and exciting dining option, but it also expands the center’s Sip & Shop program, which provides adult shoppers (21+ with valid ID) the opportunity to enjoy an alcoholic beverage while shopping at the center. Traditional Sip & Shop opportunities have been limited to special events, like Girls Night Out on Saturday May 3rd and Party at the Patio which kicks off on June 4th. Now, with the addition of Barley Creek Taproom, guests will be able to Sip & Shop year round.
Today’s news comes on the heels of a string of successes in which Promenade Saucon Valley significantly expanded its tenant roster, adding 12 other top retailers and restaurants, including Sephora (coming Spring 2026), Relux (coming this Spring), The Hive (opening this month), Color Me Mine (coming this Summer), Good Shepherd Rehabilitation (coming this Fall) and Dolly’s Dressing Room, Fulton Bank, J.Crew Factory, The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill, Slime Time, Five Guys Burgers & Fries, Rally House, Mason’s Famous Lobster Rolls and SmARTivities Showcase (all open now).
