Perhaps this review is a bit belated, but it's never unnecessary to mentally return back to a trip…read more(from a few months ago) to ensure I close out my reviews from that time with one more stellar write up. Herein lies the five stars of Stella of New Hope which was a superb dinner for my wife and I on what was a lovely April night. This evening of early April was nice enough to warrant eating outside (albeit with the help of some heat lamps) on Stella's deck area overlooking the Delaware River. It's quite a calming view and definitely set the mood of the night. What also helped was some fabulous service as our waiter was kind, attentive, and gave a few great suggestions for the menu. After getting a couple of refreshing drinks (the wife did a margarita while I had the bourbon-based Stella Spritz) we headed down the food path. Those aforementioned menu suggestions started playing a role here as the waiter suggested the house-made bread, but told us we can get the brown pumpkin sage butter that's usually on top of said bread on the side (a fantastic idea, especially because my wife can be a little iffy with pumpkin/sage). Now it was a great thing to have that butter for dipping, but dang I wish the Delaware River was filled with it because that was some good spread! The wife even enjoyed it, and the flavors really complimented the warm, fluffy brioche type loaf that we consumed. For the main course, my wife got what can only be described as every onion ever (more on that in a sec), while I took the waiter advice one more time and got something I don't normally have, hence why I went for the house-made lobster ravioli. Wow were these tender morsels exquisitely delicious. The butter, lemon, and truffle found in the sauce added such flavorful notes. Speaking of flavors, it's onion time! My wife ordered the French onion pasta which literally lists four or five different kinds of onions in its menu description and really creates a wild punch on the palate. It was a little rich and perhaps overpowering for my wife to finish on her own (I can understand how it might be a bit heavy to attack for one person), but I helped to get her through most of the meal and I can't say I didn't love the onion life. Maybe it's not for everyone, but if you enjoy a good onion, get this. Overall, Stella of New Hope is a wonderful spot to dine at. There are great views, lovely service, delightful drinks, and some fantastic food worth experiencing. Not the cheapest meal I've ever had, but well worth every dollar spent. I can't say when I'll be back to New Hope, but it's not that far from where I live so there's always a chance I'll return. And if I do, Stella will be on my mind.

My friend and I went to Stella for dinner before attending a play at the Bucks County Play House…read more We did not have an appetite for alcoholic drinks or soup to nuts that night, but I will tell you that our entrees were enough to fill us up for the whole night. My friend ordered the salmon special, and said that she really enjoyed it. I forgot to note how the mashed potatoes were made but I do know they had some paprika in them. Almost like a twice baked but different. Delish! I had the French Onion Pasta. OMG. If you are a French onion fan please run to Stella. I have thought about it ever day since. What a wonderfully bouquet of onion. The whole meal was onion yet not overpowering at all! The cream sauce was not too heavy. This meal is to die for. I cannot wait to go back. The view is amazing, we ate at the window by the river and of course all of the servers and runners are polite and friendly, as is the nature of the upscale restaurant. We both highly recommend Stella.

Whether you're a local or just visiting Lambertville for the day, a trip to OwowCow Ice Cream is…read moreworth it. Saturday started off with lovely temperatures so I was craving ice cream. My fiancé and I visited a friend who lives nearby and he recommended we go to OwowCow. Oddly enough, the temperature dropped 20 degrees in a matter of hours, but I was already committed to wanting ice cream so we went anyway. The line inside was long but it moved quickly. There were a good amount of employees helping to ensure everyone was taken care of. The flavor options here are so diverse and interesting! They have cute merch for sale, too. The honey lavender ice cream caught my eye so I decided to go with the Tea & Biscuits sundae. It consisted of two scoops of honey lavender ice cream, a lemon curd hard shell and shortbread crumble pieces. It was the most delicious, perfect, spring flavor combination. Inside the shop it was very warm. The heat must've still been on. Seating is also limited so if you want a seat, you should try to grab a table as soon as you see one.

I called when I was in Flemington NJ and called them because someone said there were two locations hoping to find them in Flemington. Anyone the person who told me there were two places was wrong. When I come to New Hope I usually bring cookies and pastries from Bensonhurst Brooklyn for my friends. Driving to New Hope was a last minute decision so a local bakery had to do. The person who answered the phone was bright, cheery, caring and made me want to drive 30 minutes to cry them. I arrived in New Hope, it's a small shop although everyone including the customer were very friendly. It seems like everything is baked right on premises, all natural and just tastes great. They have some unusual combinations of flavors and names that makes you want to try all the different cookies and pastries. As mentioned before, everyone was courteous, great pastries, cookies, and deserts. They bake everything fresh so if you wait until later in the day you may miss out on the great selection. I would highly recommend them and I'm sure they will not disappoint.

The Landmark Tavern, located in the Logan Inn in New Hope, is a casual but polished neighborhood…read moretavern featuring three distinct dining spaces that share a trendy "brick-and-leather" aesthetic; a menu featuring modern American comfort food with a range of classic pub favorites elevated with gourmet ingredients; an innovative and seasonally updated adult beverage program; and attentive and friendly service. The indoor space is divided into the lively 'Good & Plenty' bar area with several TVs for sports, the speakeasy-style 'Whiskey Lounge' specializing in bespoke cocktails, a slightly quieter 'Landmark Tavern' main dining room, and a cozy private dining room upstairs for special occasions. Overall, it's a very versatile spot that can be sophisticated enough in the 'Whiskey Lounge' for a date, casual enough in the 'Landmark Tavern' for a family meal, and energetic enough in the 'Good & Plenty' bar for beers with appetizers or a burger while watching a game. We visited for brunch on New Year's Day 2026, and the food was spot on. I had the Grilled Chicken Avocado BLT ($20) sandwich on a sourdough roll with applewood-smoked bacon and a side of truffle-dusted shoestring fries -- that was absolutely delicious. My dining companion has raved about the Logan Inn Omelet ($18), packed with bacon, spinach, and cheddar cheese as well as the Breakfast Burrito ($22) stuffed with scrambled eggs, mildly spicy chorizo sausage, and salsa verde. The cocktail program here is exceptional with a curated selection of craft spirits and innovative, seasonal cocktail options that feel both modern and sophisticated. A true standout during brunch is the Build-Your-Own Bloody Mary cart. It's such a fun, interactive touch -- a server wheels the cart directly to your table to craft your drink right in front of you which allows you customize every detail from the perfect level of heat to an impressive spread of garnishes. Each cocktail we have tried was expertly balanced and served as the perfect accompaniment to our meal. To top off the experience, service has been excellent--attentive and professional without being overbearing. It is worth mentioning that when I booked the reservation on OpenTable, I indicated that my dining companion and I were celebrating our anniversary (of our first date). The hostess and our server wished us a happy anniversary and gave us a more secluded table overlooking the bar-- an obvious sign of a well-trained staff that focuses on the details and shows an appreciation for their customers. Pro Tip #1: Parking in New Hope is always a challenge, but the Logan Inn offers two hours of complimentary valet parking for Landmark Tavern visitors. Just text when you're ready to leave, and they'll have your car waiting at the door. There's also plenty of street parking. You can pay via the ParkMobile app whether you park in the small private parking lot adjacent to the Ferry Market food hall, one of the nearby public lots (Union Square Lot @ 123 West Bridge Street), or metered on-street parking. Parking in one of the public lots or on the street in New Hope is $3.00/hour (up to a maximum of 3 hours) plus a $0.45 service charge for using the ParkMobile app

I popped in last year when it was still called Ferry + Main, and sat at the bar to enjoy a couple of the crafted holiday drinks. Loved it so much that I made a reservation for brunch this year. We got a table by the fireplace, and our server was hilarious and attentive. I ordered the Smoke & Rye toast as my main dish with a side of truffle fries and broccolini. Let me tell you, I've never had broccolini so perfectly cooked. I could have eaten it for every meal for the rest of my life. The main dish, however, was not great. They really shouldn't even put it on the menu -- the toast was too thin for all the toppings, and the tomatoes were mealy. My mom loved her Pork sandwich though, so I think I just ordered the wrong thing. Drinks were excellent. I had the Snowball old fashioned and then the Coconut hot chocolate in a cute Santa mug. I'd certainly return for the pop-up next year!
