    a sign for up the creek
    Scott W.

    Going full on 5 stars. These people are great, their food is prepared wonderfully and they accommodate anything you ask. Had two perfectly baked pies tonight and some excellent garlic rolls. The co owner was hand making chocolates when I got there but was nice enough to share in some good conversation with me while I was there. It's great to see good folks like this succeeding in their business. Love this place!!

    I was driving past today when I saw the sign saying best cheesecake in all of New Jersey well. I took that as a challenge to myself so I pulled an illegal U-turn parked my car and went inside. I was greeted with a nice smile by a lovely lady, Behind the counter who asked me How could she help me? I said, could I please have the best cheesecake in all of New Jersey? She said I sure could and now that I've had the cheesecake. I can say of the 212 previous New Jersey cheesecakes that I had. This is now number one but I am not dead yet. The quest continues.

    Like stepping back in time. A cross between an old school tavern and a diner. Counter seating by…read morethe entrance, and a main dining room with dark wood, vinyl booths and stained glass overhead light fixtures. A menu made up of heavenly comfort food from fried chicken, to meatloaf and gravy, burgers, fries, and an unbelievable assortment of pies baked in house. My girlfriend and I came here for lunch on a Sunday in January after hiking for three hours in 25 degree weather at nearby High Point State Park. It was incredibly satisfying to slide into a booth and immediately be enveloped in the warmth and hospitality of this restaurant after such a cold and tiring morning. We both got the meatloaf platter which was on special. It came with two slices of meatloaf smothered in gravy, two slices of homemade bread smothered in butter, and three sides: fries, cole slaw and corn. It was hearty and delicious. Our waitress was far and away one of the kindest and friendliest people I've ever met. She made our experience a thousand times better. As others have mentioned, cash only so be prepared! I loved this restaurant and highly recommend it to others!

    What a gem of a tiny family restaurant. Grandma (literally) is in the kitchen making everything…read morefrom scratch from bread to meat loaf to pies. Mom runs the place like a navy ship, telling her "girls" to take care of their customers (and they do - Mom even refused to hand one guy a check for $26.66 because it had 666 in it, so she rewrote it for $26!) Ordered meatloaf sandwich special ($11!) which was simply a big piecce of delicious, melt in your mouth meatloaf between two thick slices of that homemade bread. Accompanied by potato salad and cole slaw, both homemade. Haven't tasted anything like that since my own grandmother was alive. (And to top off the old fashioned ambience, when I ordered a Coke, they said they only serve RC Cola) Definitely worth the trek, and I can't wait to go back and bring my family! (Oh and they only take cash)

    I've been going to this deli for the past two years and have noticed several things:…read more 1. The sandwiches contain less meat than they used to and are priced higher. They employ an old deli trick of piling the meat in the center of the sandwich which when cut in half makes it look like it has more meat than it really does. The recent Jersey sandwich which contains corned beef, roast beef and turkey had only two slices of corned beef. 2. Different employees will charge or not charge sales tax on the sandwiches and prepared salads. 3. The baked goods are very over priced. I mean come on, $12.95 for a 7 in. by 7 in. crumb cake (yes I measured it).. On the plus side all the employees I've encountered are always courteous and hard working. My wife likes the prepared salads but they are now over $10.00. If the price increases continue at the current rate I will have to go elsewhere although in Sussex county the choices are limited.

Their pies are 2 inches thick and fresh fruit not preserves. This pie had whole strawberries, bananas, blueberries and more. It was scrumptious as well as their cookie and apple pies. But, everything is amazing there. If you're looking for the best bakery in Sussex county Clove Brook is the one and only. Oh, and the ambiance is clean, and the cutest real country vibe. #best #bakery #sussexcounty #perfection
