The eatery, which specializes in American Chinese food, will be erecting a new building on the spot at 2029 Lincoln Highway that housed the diner under various names since 1967. In addition to the 2,500 square foot building, Panda Express will be upgrading the surrounding area to provide customers with the ideal dining experience. The chain will be making improvements to the parking lot and storm water management system, as well as adding a sidewalk at East Lincoln Highway.
An opening timeline is not currently available for Panda Express’s Langhorne home, however as demolition hasn’t been completed on the diner and the new restaurant must be built from the ground up, it is unlikely that locals will be able to enjoy the brand’s fare before mid-to-late 2025.
