For the beer drinkers out there! IPA-heavy brewery in Bloomfield. They usually have a food truck out front. Check their IG for events.
Brewery with more sours and some non-alcoholic options. Small indoor space with an outdoor patio. Recommend ordering from Spak Bros next-door while you sip your brews!
More beer for y'all - This one is in Lawrenceville and has a pretty big indoor and outdoor space to hang. Sometimes has a food truck, otherwise recommend grabbing a pizza from Driftwood!

The locals call it "Penn Mac." Family-owned Italian food store running since the 1940s. Pop in and take a walk around the strip!
