The Cranberry Orange Scone is PERFECTLY made - incredible flavor and not AT ALL dry. The Garden Omelette is beautifully composed and chock-full of the freshest veggies (and cheese), with the side salad as great accompaniment to a wonderful meal. We look forward to their brunch in the winter (just wish y'all could continue it throughout the year!)!!

This is THE farmers market to stop in if you're in the area. Even in mid April, they had some fresh…read moreproduce, whereas the other local farm market had none and snipped at us when we asked if they had produce as if it was an unreasonable question. And Pennings has everything -from nice gift items, to fresh baked goods, including bread, to a great garden center. I was especially impressed with their native plant offerings, lots of options among perennials, for example in a small smaller size, a little easier for the pocketbook, and some amazing soil options, including mushroom compost, which I've never seen anywhere. And the staff was lovely. It was nice being there on a weekday afternoon when it was quieter. I'm guessing on the weekend and in season & apple picking time this place will be hopping.

Also known as Ramstein brewery, this is an awesome spot that all of the Butler locals seem to…read moreconverge at. They have excellent beers (they have this watermelon beer right now that's really yummy) of all different types, the vibe is super fun, and the people working there are all soooo friendly. They also often have a food truck open with brats, but if it's not, you can bring your own food which is cool. Great spot!

This is Ramstein brewery. Went on a Saturday afternoon…read morearound 4pm (it closes at 6pm) and it was super quiet. I ordered the blonde beer and it was quite tasty though not super cold. The staff was lovely. The inside is quiet small so we decided to sit outside. There are tables outside and they are definitely trying to give you a beer garden feel but really you are sitting in the parking lot. They don't serve food but they do have menus from local places that will deliver.

I have visited Skylands several times now and have enjoyed the overall experience. Skylands has the…read morefeel of a country brewery. But since they don't brew anything I guess they would be categorized as a tap house. They offer a nice variety of mainly local beers. They also have a relatively small menu of food items. I have tried several different things. Nothing to really rave about. But nothing to complain about either. All in all pretty decent fare. With that said the real draw here is the property. A country setting strewn with picnic tables and Adirondack chairs. Making it a very nice place to hang for a while. Especially, that they often have live entertainment. I'm a biker and this makes a great destination or pit stop. I will return to Skylands for sure.

Living close to the NY/PA/NJ border definitely has its perks…read more Decided to head over to Sussex County NJ to try something new for lunch. First of all, the beer flights are only $7, the downside is all beer is served in plastic cups, but the pours are nice size. They do have wine but nothing that this wine snob wanted, lol. The kitchen offers something for everyone. I had the hot Italian panini, my husband the pepperoni pizza, zero complaints. Big bonus there's was music on Sunday! Nice gentleman singing not your ordinary songs, like Eleanor Ribgy! Very cool. 2nd Bonus. There's specific parking spots for motorcycles. So we will definitely be back on our scoot with some friends, scenic route from home is no highway. Nice outdoor seating and ice cream for kids, bring the whole fam, no dogs tho.

Same goes for their tomahawk ribeye when it's available! Incredible. The value is off the charts. I love their IPAs and even their stout is crack and I don't usually order anything besides IPA. Really great that they have food during the week, but if you're fortunate enough to be there during the weekend BBQ, I don't think you can go wrong with anything they offer. Can't wait to go back. I might drive an hour in the snow today just to get that beef rib... Cheers* Service 10/10 Ambiance 10/10 Food 10/10 Beer 10/10 Distance from me 4/10 ;(

The parking lot is small but luckily it wasn't crowded on a Sunday afternoon. The food was excellent. They have a wood fired grill menu only on the weekends. We ordered the Brussels sprouts, the smoked wings with Thai chili sauce, the pulled pork sandwich, the hangar steak, and the burger. All were great as were the fries. The service was above and beyond. Also, they had some great specials on cams to go that we took advantage of. 10% off for dining at the brewery, a free branded glass with every 3 4-packs, and a free bottled stout with the purchase of a case.

The food is also excellent , the pizzas especially and they can cater to allergies and have vegan options. The service is also very friendly and the space is open with an expansive back yard area with fire pits in the winter (although they can get smokey) and a large lawn. Can't wait to go again - nice stop if you have kids skiing at Mt Peter in the winter and you need a solid lunch spot after, or, for any other reason :)

Very busy place and nice atmosphere inside and out. Kids everywhere…read more Tons of IPAs and fruity beers on tap (apparently all the rage) at $10 a glass, but no traditional real beers. Undecided? Company policy allows for one sample. Roll the dice and try a 10 cent shot. If it sucks, now what? Easy decision, turn around and walk out. Typical small time mentality. Business is booming, why strive for anything resembling excellence? Hard pass

Dark As Your Soul is an Imperial Stout that Steve and I enjoyed. With it's roasty, sweet and smoky flavors this strong tasting beer definitely hit the spot.

There is freshly popped popcorn for a snack and you can bring your own food. It is a beautiful trip to get here driving through the northern-Jersey countryside. As our bartender said, this is just about as far north as you can get in NJ!

There was a birthday celebration going on inside that seemed to take up every table except for the bar. Wasn't sure if they rented out the place as we were still able to come in and get drinks. We ordered one drink each and were in and out quick because it was a feeling claustrophobic from the party going on. I was impressed with the blackberry sour I had. And my boyfriend enjoyed his IPA i can't remember which one he had. Pretty sure it was the Dubco ipa. They also have a food menu seems to rotate the food options here as well. The bbq smelled amazing but we didn't end up getting anything. They are dog friendly and my dog loved it here as the girl behind the bar instantly offered treats and water if she needed it.

DUBCO is a brewery based on Long Island and this second location, on sprawling wooded grounds, is absolutely awesome! The beer selection is varied and good, both on tap and by the can. While they offer a couple of local wines and spirits/cocktails, the focus is on beer. Food-wise, there was pizza and some snacks in-house, but they also bring in different food trucks and outside food vendors. The Octoberfest catering was provided by Trattoria Italiana GWL on the day we went, and the grilled chicken and sausage & onion sandwiches we had were both delicious. The place is spacious both inside and out. There are ample outdoor seating and picnic tables, or you could lay out a picnic blanket on the grass. Family friendly too - the ladies room is large and has a changing table which I appreciated. Picturesque, chill and relaxing, with great beer and food, and things to do in the area. What more can you ask for! 5 stars all the way.
