A short ride from DWG, but if you're looking for good food, I recommend it. Be prepared to spend some money.

Old school, family run business. Fresh pies and pastries, breakfast sandwiches, quick lunches. Amazing pulled pork on summer weekends. Sit by the creek and enjoy yourself or get something to go.

I love the trolley ride. When I first moved to DWG she let me ride for free the first time to check out the area. It's a one hour narrated trip through the area. Seasonal.

There are now three Thai restaurants in the area, but trust me this is the ONE. Another family owned biz. Saen cooks (have never seen her!) and husband Boon works the front end. Make a great team!

A main attraction of the area. Tons of great trails for hiking and biking. Float down the river. Chill out at Smithfield or Turtle Beach (NJ side). Take a ride down River Rd. or Old Mine Rd (NJ side).

Food Scene

Family owned and operated. Owners may seem "rough around the edges" at first, but they are good, hard working people. If I'm not getting slices then it's a cheese steak for me, with sauce and onions!

Walking distance from the house. I eat here often. Nightly specials. Full bar. Pub menu, lunch & dinner. Once in a while service is off, but I'm usually relaxing so I don't mind. Also locally owned.
