Max Hansen Carversville Grocery has become something of a destination in and of itself. While most stores are utilitarian, Hansen has become famous for his smoked salmon, which he has been lovingly crafting for decades. His store reflects his dedication to finer culinary experiences.
On weekends, people flock to the store for his gourmet breakfast sandwiches and coffee before setting out for a day of sightseeing around Bucks County. During the week, locals and contractors come to partake in one of his sandwiches or lunch entrees and one of the store's amazing baked goods.
Be forewarned - indoor seating is very limited. However, if you come on a nice day, you can sit outside on a bench or at a table in a grassy glen by the creek. You may also wish to phone in your order ahead of time if you plan on getting lunch or coming during peak-times. Everything is made to order, so the wait is longer than a typical deli.
Hansen's is cyclist friendly with a bike rack to the left of the building. The store is stocked with a variety of cyclist friendly foods, from coffee and baked goods to energy bars.
