There's a back patio area along the water and kids were fishing. I had some high hopes! When I ordered the flight, 2 of my glasses were not really filled up. In the picture - I haven't touched them. For $12, I really want to see them filled better. The IPAs were mediocre too. Nearly impossible to distinguish one from the other, even though they were described in very different ways. My fave was the PB Dunkel. I'll probably check back in a future trip, but not going out of my way to go here again.

The server wasn't too friendly, but it's all good brother. I had a Hazy IPA while enjoying some food from one of the restaurants within the market.

Sharing a light lunch of the Wagyu Beef Tacos - House-smoked Wagyu tri-tip, guacamole, salsa roja, was a very good option as an add-on for the beer. Service was great at the bar. The place itself was surprisingly large and having a lot of parking available is a huge bonus for anything in New Hope. Yes, of course it is still paid, but such is New Hope.

I really, really enjoyed my Snowy Cosmo cocktail very much! Service was very friendly - would visit again.

They've got pages upon pages dedicated to wines, whiskey flights, and even wine flights, which feels fun and adventurous. That said, I was really surprised (and honestly, a bit disappointed) to find that most of the wine is only sold by the bottle. For a wine bar, that feels like a major miss -- not everyone wants to commit to a whole bottle just to try something new! Food-wise, it was a mixed bag. The ceviche tostada was a letdown -- the seafood tasted far from fresh, with that overly fishy flavor that makes you push the plate away instead of dive in. The charcuterie, on the other hand, was solid -- tasty, but nothing remarkable enough to justify the price tag. In short: super cute vibes, extensive drink menu, but the food quality and pricing don't match the charm. Probably not somewhere I'll be racing back to.

People really need to lighten the F up! I say that based on most of the reviews. If you feel it's…read moretoo expensive, don't go! The price is the price. It's not like they hide it and then spring it on you. Yes it's difficult to understand what's being said through the speakers. They need to address that. But the employees who walk through the cars answering questions make up for it. Very pleasant and knowledgeable. The ride through parts of New Hope was a delight. I had a cousin visiting from the West coast who is, "in to trains" like Sheldon Cooper! He was absolutely thrilled. We all loved how the people in the houses along the way waved to us. If you enjoy vintage trains and a nice ride it's great. The children that were on board all seemed to be having a great time. Next time my cousin visits he already requested that we return. We will!

So I'm updating my review. I returned (admittedly with great reluctance to be honest) to the New…read moreHope Railroad. When I rode this train last year, it was truly an awful experience and thought it was ridiculously overpriced. Don't get me wrong, it's still overpriced! But what has changed that I could see was a massive improvement in customer service with the workers we interacted with. I only returned since there was a ticketing snafu where somehow I got charged double. Last year, I tried calling to resolve it and despite all my efforts, they would not refund my money. With this in mind, I booked the Santa Train since I already had most of the train cost covered with last year's double booking from the credit that I had on file. My family and I came during Thanksgiving and I was initially really surprised by just how empty our car was. It was the last train of the night, but still, I would have thought a busy Thanksgiving holiday weekend would have been packed. It could also be that people like us have booked in the past, got frustrated and swore off coming back for good. I waiting to board the train, and was standing outside in the freezing cold weather and the worker told me I could hop on. I really really appreciated this, since on my last ride, I ended up standing outside while the train was in the station but they were super strict on the boarding time. Once inside the train, they were efficient in the boarding and making sure we were comfortable. Off we went, and we were entertained by singing and the band even requested songs by all those in the car. And other staff offered to take our family's photo. Santa came through and even gave the kids a little gift. Santa and Mrs. Clause spent plenty of time chatting with my kids and it was very nice to see. There is a small cart that is rolled out where you can purchase drinks including alcoholic beverages for the adults to add to your hot cocoa. They also had some snacks for purchase. A nice touch was the complimentary hot chocolate and baked cookies. My daughter got caught up in the excitement and spilled hot cocoa all over her lovely dress. Not only did the workers offer to help clean it up, but they even brought over a bottle of sparkling water for us to use along with a towel to clean her up. The woman helping out even got in and started scrubbing the dress with us. We had a nice dinner planned for after the ride and it was just a really nice gesture and my partner and I couldn't believe how much was improved from our previous experience. I'm willing to come back and give this place another shot.

We got the last table - a cute place right by the window and it felt like we were outside but without the chill of the autumn air. The ambiance was relaxed with lots of exposed wood and brick and greenery everywhere. Service was good and although food took a little while, it wasn't too long. Husband got a Caesar wrap which he liked. I got the stir fry veggies with rice and I added chicken. The veggies were crisp and plentiful, sauce seemed to be teriyaki. Good chicken. I was so excited to eat it, I forgot the photo! The only problem for me is the rice was fairly scant. I like lots of carbs. If we were just going home, I'd have a snack but we were out of town so I ordered more rice which took a while again. And they gave me a full side order which was too much. But still, all the food was excellent and exactly what I'd wanted.

Therefore, I'm not going to say that Fran's in in the running for a Michelin star but as a pub, it certainly did the trick offering up robust sandwiches and a couple of cold ones - all without a single mention of being farm raised or ethically sourced.

With just 1.27 square miles of land area, New Hope's primary industry is tourism. Year-round and especially on weekends, visitors clog the narrow sidewalks on Main Street, window-shopping or enjoying one of its numerous eateries. This was my first time back from an 11-year hiatus. My partner and I decided on a quick bite for lunch yesterday and chose Fran's Pub, known as Biker Central in the spring/summer on South Main Street. It offered multiple distinct dining areas to match one's mood, whether enjoying a family dinner on their semi-enclosed patio, playing pool in the pub bar, or people watching from the impressive large outdoor seating area with umbrellas or heaters. Greeted by the staff upon entering as first-timers, we sat in their semi-enclosed patio, whose doors that opened to the street had the nice warmth of the sun. With a five-page menu consisting of house-made or house-prepared dishes that cater to all appetites, we decided on a small Beef Vegetable soup (soup of the day), Hot Pastrami Pub sandwich, and Aioli Pesto Chicken sandwich. The sandwiches accompanied house-made Fried Potato Chips. Food was tasty and satisfied our stomachs. Service was fast, friendly, and our server was Melissa. Price was reasonable. We could recommend this place.

The pros: Our tour guide/bus driver, Don, was excellent. He seriously made the whole trip. He was so kind and helpful and fun loving, he was a great match for our group. The wine tour was excellent we had an extensive tour of the grounds and they make their wine. It was the best tour we got the whole trip. The brewery had corn hole which made a great activity as our day was winding down. The pub lunch was great and had choices for everyone. Cons: Definitely overpriced for "tasting tours" when out of the three places when we only got one real "tour". Pretty disappointed and we all wished we got actual tours of the distillery and brewery since that is what we paid for. We didn't get to stay at the winery very long or hang out before we had to leave-- we thought this was the best location out of all three.

We were able to take the train from Center City to Doylestown. At Doylestown, their driver - Linda (actually the founder) was there to greet us. Leading up to the planning of this event, we worked with Linda and had a very good experience. She knew the area, suggested eateries and talked about the country side. All this just added what I call "free extras" to the already low price. Plus there are shopping baskets, bottles of water, and storage cases for new wine while on your journey. This is a well thought out operation. We had a group of 5. Our biggest concern is who we would sit with on the bus; however, after the first stop everyone was loosened up (the first stop allows you to pour or own samples!) and the conversations just started rolling out. We had a great time and thanks to Linda for making it work out.
