Places like these add so much character and charm to New Hope! I was in absolute awe walking in and amazingly so, each step I took, I saw something even more extraordinary! I especially liked how there were so many hand-crafted items, a craft we should continue to admire and showcase!

Delaware Canal

A small stretch of the Delaware River: great for canoeing.

Reviewed By PeterWJr46 - Poughkeepsie, United States

This past week, my wife and I were able to ride the fourteen mile loop from New Hope to Washington's Crossing across to New Jersey back to Lambertville and the bridge to New Hope. The paths on both sides of the Delaware River and canals is relative flat and easily navigated. Be sure to bring a bottle of water. The ride is pleasant, but it is without amenities.

Farely's Bookshop

New Hope's hometown bookstore.

Reviewed By Bibliophile1

Independent bookstores are precious, and Farley's is my favorite. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly, helping me research books I'm looking for, recommending new authors, and ordering special titles they don't have in stock. I especially love the children's section; finding gifts is easy. They even have a rewards program; every so often, I earn a lovely gift certificate. It doesn't get any better!

New Hope-Lambertville Toll Supported Bridge

Reviewed By Unresolved_Issue - Edison, United States

Have walked across this bridge on numerous visits to Lambertville-New Hope. Great way to cross the river from Lambertville to New Hope or vice versa. If you plan on visiting both towns, no need to drive across - just park in one town and walk across the bridge to the other town. The walk across the river is scenic with great views of the Delaware River. And great for car watching too.

First time visiting Free Will and I'd definitely go back. The beer I had was called COB (Coffee Oatmeal Brown) ale and it was great. I actually purchased a 4 pack to take home with me. The staff waiting on us was super friendly and down to earth also.
