Plenty of places to eat, art and gift shops and a ton of other things. Take 340 (the main street) west toward Lancaster City and there are small fabric places along the way. You go through Bird-in-Hand which has a farmers market, QS and FS, bakeries, etc.
The FS in Denver is wonderful but it's a bear to find. Nor is there a real need to as it has now merged with Zooks in Int.
I've lived in the Lancaster area for 10 yrs. and these are the places I go. Have a wonderful time, it's beautiful country.

Shady Maple is more than just food - they have a huge gift store downstairs with lots of Jim Shore items, quilts, knick knack stuff.

The Old Country Store is a great place and if you go there, go upstairs to the People's Choice Museum. It's small, but worth a few minutes to go through. Across the street from that is the Kitchen Kettle Village, a fun place to go through.

Have a blast!

All of these are great! Just adding to the list, check out quilt shops in Ronks and Bird-in-Hand, PA. They are just a few miles within Intercourse!

If you can make it, we are offering a motorcoach trip to this area in 2012. A bus with friends is always a good way to see an area like this. The full itinerary is found here. This will be a really fun trip!
