What a delightful little park …read more I'm happy to see that this is the school mascot . I didn't know prior to today. Very tidy park and only one other person, enjoying it at the same time as me . I was a little surprised there weren't more students sitting and reading and enjoying beautiful day today in this delightful park . Enjoyable

When you are Yelp!'s #1 OUTLAW where do you hang your spurs?…read more Palmer Square at Princeton University! Why you might ask!? Because I am the least preppy and run-of-the-mill hanging-on-mom-and-dad's-expense account type. My ruggedness fits right in at 'Palmer Square' with my leather jackets and frayed jeans: the way oil and vinegar mix! That said, I enjoy my outlaw status at Princeton's angled walkways and shops and cliche coffee houses. When I enter Small World Coffee or order up at The Yankee Doodle Tap Room the women visibly gasp at my long locks and muscles in disbelief! People either think I am an astrophysicist on a hallucinogenic or a Greaser from the 1950s. The Rebel Chef has what is sorely needed in this town: frassos. Palmer Square is where all the ritzy brats in this town go to buy their $500 undershirts, Choo-choo train toys and loafers. It's a lit-up snazzy horseshoe shaped little park with some sign posts, historical markers, restaurants, bars, clothes stores, arches and bookshops. People come to walk poodles. It gets busy around here between about 10am until 3pm, after that all the monocled scientists and 'an athletic scholarship in high jump bought me my way to a degree in biology' - types go to their small dorms for long naps. Palmer Square is nonetheless an archaic but valued (if for its aura and celebrated window shopping) nexus and hub for the hamlet of Princeton. Every now and again when I come through here - I grab a pint and some bar food and enjoy the seasons. Palmer Square Review: 5

One of the best Wawa's in the area - hand's down!…read more 1) This Wawa is next to the Princeton University's parking lot 23 & the train station. 2) The spot is open 24/7 - one of the few in the area. 3) Clean restrooms are available for the customers. 4) Excellent soda machine.

What i love most is the service - everyone is Italian and they speak Italian to during breaks - very polite, friendly, fast, and they know how to build a sandwich.

Princeton Corkscrew is a standout wine destination in town. The shelves are thoughtfully…read morecurated--full of small-producer gems and global varieties--and every bottle feels hand-selected with care. What truly sets the shop apart is the team: the staff are warm, knowledgeable, and eager to guide you to the perfect pairing, whether you arrive with a detailed brief or just tonight's dinner menu. Laurent, the owner, leads by example. His genuine passion for wine and hospitality creates an inviting atmosphere where you never feel rushed or out of your depth. Talking with him is like getting a mini masterclass, and his recommendations consistently impress. The store doesn't always have every bottle back in stock, but you can always discover an equally exciting alternative for your meal or occasion. My only request is for the city to convert the permanent parking spots directly in front of the shop into a 5-10-minute loading zone reserved for Princeton Corkscrew customers.

A WINE SHOP THAT SELLS NO BAD WINE!…read more One of the mottos we wine drinkers have frequently heard is "Life is too short to drink bad wine!" This is the credo of the Princeton Corkscrew. This well researched and mindfully assembled "wine library" has best representatives of even the tiniest microclimate where wines of note are produced. The associates working beside the owner Laurent Chapuis are well-studied connaisseurs who can talk intelligently about every bottle in the shop. Before a new bottle is placed in the racks it has been tasted and discussed by members of the team. Laurent, himself, visits the winemakers and the terroirs to select only the best examples and best vintages for his shelves. Open tastings invite we consumers to meet the makers and taste their wines including vertical samplings which educate us. I've never visited a better educated shop than the Princeton Corkscrew. And I have never bought a wine that didn't live up to its portrayal. Good advice. Good information. Good pricing. GREAT WINE! Merci Laurent!

Well, as my family will tell you, they love it when I'm wrong and the 7-11 in Princeton Junction is as clean and modern as any convenience outlet in central Jersey. Bright and spacious I might even consider eating something that originated here (when no one is looking of course.) Let's not go crazy, I'll start with coffee and gasoline and work my way up. The coffee in particular is a terrific eye opener as you watch with incredulity as the attendants raise the price of gas every ten minutes... but that's happening everywhere. To me 7-Eleven has always been snake eyes. Well, their location in Princeton Junction has made a liar of me and my family couldn't be more pleased. Five easy stars.

As one of the originators of the c-store concept it's like they just invented the thing and stopped. While the Wawa's and QuikChek's of the world are for the most part, bright and inviting, the moribund 7-Eleven always seems locked in a sepia twilight even at high noon. Is every flickering florescent in the place five minutes from extinction? And after a few decades, I'm still waiting for a decent cup of coffee. Not good.
