This is the only licensed casino in Bensalem. It is a very large facility jam-packed with various entertainments such as horse racing, poker, slots, table games, and sports betting. There are numerous bars that serve up everything from fancy cocktails to the casual beer; and if it's a real meal you want, choose from Cafe Parx, Parx Grill, and everyone's favorite, Chickie's & Pete's. The Xcite Center hosts concerts, entertainment performances, comedy acts, and boxing and MMA matches. Directions are easy to find on the Parx Casino website, but it's very hard to miss if you're driving along Street Road, parxcasino.com/#/directions/Directions. Valet parking recommended. The parking lot is rather confusing.

This park is along the Delaware River in the lower Bucks County area, including Bensalem. Taking its name from Neshaminy Creek, the park measures 339 acres and has multiple hiking trails to enjoy during the warm weather seasons. The picnic areas and swimming pools are the most popular park attractions. Great for relaxing and spending a quiet day. Farther up the river is a marina in Croydon.
