Restaurants in Stockton, New Jersey
Stockton, New Jersey, is located between Lambertville and Frenchtown, and is 70 miles from New York City. For those who like to spend time outdoors, the Delaware and Raritan Canal State Park is a unique park system that is extremely popular with walkers, runners and cyclists. Stockton is located right on the canal, as well as the Delaware River, and is known for its scenic beauty. Adding to Stockton's historic charm, are its restaurants and shops.

Meil's Restaurant

Located on a scenic corner in Stockton, Meil's Restaurant is a BYOB known for homemade food and adventurous dishes. The restaurant itself is quite small and Meil's does not take reservations. As such, it is important to get there early to beat the rush, as it quickly gets crowded.

Meil's Restaurant also has a reputation that you either love it or hate it, so checking the menu ahead is advised to avoid a disappointing meal.

Stockton Inn

The 300-year-old Stockton Inn is a favorite spot for romantic dinners. The inside is cozy, especially during the winter, and in the summer months the Stockton Inn has outdoor seating on the front porch. However, the outside Garden Bar is open year-round, with a fire pit and outdoor heaters. The Inn also houses the Stockton Inn Tavern, which may be the first tavern in the state of New Jersey.

Via Ponte Ristorante Siciliano

Via Ponte Ristorante Siciliano is right on Bridge Street, close to the Delaware and Raritan Canal. This BYOB serves Italian cuisine in a friendly atmosphere. However, as with most Stockon restaurants, it is small so it fills up quickly. Making reservations on Fridays and Saturdays is advisable.

Stockton, NJ 08559

Dilly's Corner

If you want to take a stroll across the bridge into Pennsylvania, Dilly's Corner is legendary for its hamburgers and ice cream. Dilly's isn't fancy, and indoor seating is limited, but once you bite into a Dilly burger or Dilly dog, you'll know why they have lines around the building. This is a great place to take a family or large group looking to eat cheap, but good.

Dilly's Corner
2998 River Road
New Hope, PA 18938
(215) 862-5333
