The Small New Jersey Town That’s Become A World-Class Destination
Tourism is New Jersey’s second-largest industry and it’s really no surprise with our spectacular shore towns. People come from all over to visit Cape May, Asbury Park, Wildwood, and Ocean City (among others). However, it’s not only our shore towns that are bringing in tourists. One small town on the western side of our state has been making major waves.
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life. While we continue to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, please take proper precautions or add them to your bucket list to see at a later date.

The People's Store Antique Center spans four floors in a beautiful 1839 building in the heart of downtown. There are dozens of dealers offering everything imaginable. I was absolutely enamored with the selection. Address: 28 N. Union Street, Lambertville, NJ, 08530

It's a restaurant, inn, and popular wedding venue. Address: 11 Bridge Street, Lambertville, NJ, 08530. Other top eateries include D'floret (farm to table fare), El Tule (Mexican/Peruvian), and Caffe Galleria (global eats, espresso, and gelato).

Music Mountain Theater offers top-notch (and budget-friendly) musicals and live theatrical performances. Address: 1483 Route 179, Lambertville, NJ, 08530.

There are several parks including the popular D&R Canal Park featuring a wheelchair-accessible trail for hiking and biking. It's absolutely beautiful.
