All of us were battle- scarred from 4 hours at the Crayola Experience just a minute away.
In fact the people at the Crayola recommended this place to us.
Just around the corner from the side entrance of Crayola in a charming old bricked-over street.
Great ice-cream. It had been ages since I had Purple Cow flavor.
Friendly service- It was a hit al around.

I love this bakery. The quality and taste is the exceptional. Whether it's a more savory items such as the pizza pie or sweeter items like donuts the quality is consistent. I have been eating here since I was a very young girl and this is one place that still gives me a feeling of nostalgia. The sugar cookies here are the best I have had anywhere!

We are a bookstore with over 50,000 rare, used and out-of-print books with a small cafe serving breakfast until 2pm and lunch until 3pm (2pm on Sunday). We make food to order using the freshest, and when possible, local ingredients. We are a place to browse, relax, eat and have conversation.

The building is historic, the coffee is great, and the books chosen with the collector in mind. The atmosphere is informal and relaxed. I was only going to have coffee, but the food the other diners had ordered looked great, so I ordered lunch. It...MoreSounds like you made the best out of your visit to the Quadrant.

We had delicious Indian food while on a trip to London and decided to try Clove. What a find! We never expected to find such delicious Indian food so close to home - and in Phillipsburg, of all places! The staff is wonderful and helpful and the food is fresh and delicious. This has become one of our favorite places - both to eat in and take out. Highly recommend the chicken tikkah masala and the lamb pasanda!

Reviewed By Janine H - Pocono Mt., PA
Love, love, love it! Fantastic Mediterranean food! We honestly couldn't decide so we created our own messa and picked a bunch of appetizers. Daddy's style hummus was the first plate cleared. The foul mudammas was next and not to be missed. Everything was just delicious and the portions were very generous -- my sons were very appreciative that I brought home left over chicken livers (OMG, that pomegranate sauce...!). Grabbed some spinach pies to go as well and they were really sizable for the price. Go there. Just go there!

Had a terrible experience here a few years back where a phoned in lunch order came 45 min after being seated. Wanted to give them a second chance tonight, so we decided to go back with our children. Hostess treated us as second class citizens because we had kids (we leave places whenever our kids are having a bad night). She could take a few lessons from our server on how to treat people. I have run multiple organizations in town, and they NEVER support the local groups. Never going back!
8. Ocean
Overall Ratings

Reviewed By SilverSageMag - Bethlehem, Pennsylvania
At first glance, we were a bit surprised by the name of the restaurant. Sitting at the fork of the Lehigh RIVER and the Delaware RIVER, Ocean seemed a bit pretentious. But then we realized, the owner - Mick Gjevukaj, also owns River Grille. So, okay. Ocean it is.
The venue - was a bit mixed. Cold, efficient and small. It definitely felt "oceany." But there was also an asian fusion feel to the restaurant that gave it a bit of a kitschy vibe. The big tables in the back felt a bit more private and comfy, but the rest of the tables were situated close together and sterile - right down to the fake candles on each table that didn't flick their fake flicked lights.
Wait staff - we had Sarne. Not sure if that was her real name or not, but she was efficient, pleasant and definitely knew her profession! The mixed was the wait staff uniform - jeans with black tops. Perfect for a steak house or homey fish house, but it didn't seem to blend well with the vibe of Ocean; which attempted to lean more to the "cool" than the "outback."
Food - some was yummy and some not so much. We started off with the Lobster Empanadas - wow. Bursting with flavor and the carmelized onion on top was delicious. We also started with the Panko Crusted Calamari - meh. Without the sauces on the side, the calamari was quite bland. And the sauces seemed to come right out of a big box restaurant or jar - nothing fancy, flavorful or original. Standard sauces.
We then ordered the Seafood Pot Pie - at first glance, quite disappointing from what the waitress described as "more than 7 oz of fish." We were expecting a deep dish full of deliciousness. What we got was a shallow dish - full of flavor, resonating with amazing broth and loads of different fish. YUM! The other main dish was the Filet Mignon - not expecting much from a seafood restaurant - but this was grilled to perfection (just red on the inside) and teeming with robust flavor.
Too full for dessert, we finished the night with a flavorful coffee (Irish) and waddled back to our car - full and happy.
Although our bar bill was nearly the same as the food bill - it was good value.

The Chicken sandwich was delicious and Waffle Fries were great as well. The service (DRive through) went quicker than expected and in fact they brought out a new Lemonade Drinnk for us to try. That was delicious! Would recommend if on the road and need to eat en route.

Reservations are recommended, but there are high top tables for two in the bar area for walk ins. We got lucky. The menu is diverse and there is something for every palate from fish to pizza to pasta. Great salads. Vegan options. Lots of appetizers. The service for exceptional. Friendly and attentive without being intrusive (thank you Shawn!) Nice atmosphere. Easy to have a conversation.
