Earl's Coming Back To Peddler's Village, But With a New Look

A new restaurant will be opening in Peddler's Village next month.

Earl's New American is slated for an April 12 opening.

The restaurant will be located in the same spot as the former Earl's Bucks County, but will offer "a completely new dining experience," according to a restaurant spokeswoman.

Earl’s New American "will bring a polished, casual dining experience with creative, contemporary cuisine and a vibrant lounge," the announcement said. The 140-seat restaurant has undergone extensive renovations to give the space a "contemporary farmhouse feel" well suited for intimate dinners and group gatherings.

The menu will offer dishes that use seasonal ingredients from local farms. Menu items will include steaks, chops and seafood. The restaurant will have an extensive wine list, according to Peddler's Village.

Bill Murphy, a Culinary Institute of America graduate, will be the head chef, bringing his experience at Jake’s in Manayunk and with Philadelphia restaurateur Stephen Starr.

Earl's Bucks County closed in January 2015.
