Top 5 Specialty Food in Mercer County

92 N Main St, Windsor, NJ 08561, United States

“So i’ve been seeing lots of advertisements for this Chocolatier so i decided to go check it out. I went to their Hightstown (West Windsor) location. The store is very nice with tons of unique products to choose from. They do not accept credit cards only debit and cash (or at least the day I was there). Their location is in a warehouse park so if it were not for their directional signs I don’t think I would have been able to find it. I will definitely be back again.”

“Great experience & customer service was amazing. My wife family is from Trinidad and Guyana and she said the food tasted like home. They were so courteous and the restaurant was super clean. We will be definitely coming back. FYI: they get pretty packed in the morning and they only have 3 to 4 tables.”

“Thomas Sweets Ice Cream is awesome. The flavors are so delicious and hard to choose which one to get. I love their Sweet Cream as well as their Chocolate. My wife got pumpkin and loved it. Vanilla is always a great basic. I love to do the blend ins. It comes out so incredible. The atmosphere is great and inviting. The only reason I wouldn’t give it a 5 star is the staff. I felt like I was a bother by asking to be helped. No interaction with me at all. The young man took my order and the only time he spoke to me was when I was checking out to tell me how much it was for the total. Customer Service can make or break an establishment but because this is an iconic place in Princeton people still will go. I can only imagine how many people don’t go back because of the lack of Customer Service.”

“Extremely pleased with last evening’s dinner at 12 Farms. BYOB, and cash only. Delicious! Put this restaurant on your list of places to frequent.”

“We ate there once and did a take out another time. The place is very clean. The restaurant staff are very friendly. The food was prepared quickly both times. We had six ramens prepared by them combining over two times. Each dish tasted great, and was plentiful and reasonably priced. Our two daughters are crazy about this place and want to go there every week. Very happy overall and will go back there soon.”

52 E Broad St, Hopewell, NJ 08525, United States

“Nicely decorated for Christmas! Bread was nicely toasted and we got margherita pizza with arugula and procuitto which was amazingly good! Probably the best pizza i had in Princeton area! The dough was crisp but not burnt and the sauce, cheese arugula and prosciutto had a great balance! The lobster ravioli was full with lobster and the sauce was a nice rose sauce with very juicy tomatoes which made the taste and texture of the food more entertaining! Definitely recommend this place!”

“Great place for a night out. Sushi and sashimi, plus all Asian grill favorite. Menu looks extensive and lots to choose from. Friendly staff and servers are very polite. All around, just great atmosphere. Will be back again soon.”

“It turns out that if you go to a winery that literally has "dog" in their name but it's raining all day, you will see NO canine chums. A very sad state of affairs, but I certainly don't blame the winery for that. I do think going forward I would hesitate to go to a winery in rainy conditions unless I absolutely had to - you can tell this place is probably gorgeous outside on a sunny day, but we weren't able to take advantage of that. I came here with my cousin chums yesterday afternoon for a few hours. It's conveniently located in that it's roughly equidistant between us, a few minutes off the Turnpike and pretty easy to find with some GPS assistance. We were one of the few customers/guests there when we showed up around noon, but it did actually fill up a bit as the afternoon progressed. Many reviewers have mentioned the rules, and deservedly so. We'd all looked through them beforehand, and there are some VERY specific restrictions. I'm used to seeing a list of rules/instructions from wineries that clearly were written in response to some rowdier parties, but based on this compilation, it seemed like they had the Birthday Party From Hell at some point, featuring hoagies, kites and baseball bats. I've never seen anything like it. I will say though that, having actually been on the premises, I didn't feel like I was burdened by the rules, per se - yes, they are framed and displayed in a few areas (see attached), but I also expected one or two employees to sort of embody that mindset, and I didn't get that vibe, thankfully. Everyone was very pleasant and professional. There was an older gentleman outside I think overseeing the parking situation (it's pretty informal and mostly on the grass, so it does require a little direction at times), and he told me as part of his introductory script, "We only have one rule - to have fun." Sir, I saw the rule about the hoagies. Not true. Nice guy though. We decided to do the $18 tasting, which I thought was reasonably priced, especially when you take into account that a) you got a solid list of options to choose from, b) a bottle of water and c) a free winery glass to take home. I think that's one of the better tasting packages I've encountered, so kudos to them. The young woman who handled our tasting was very nice and accommodating (at one point, my one cousin chum asked if we could take a break to eat some of our charcuterie we'd brought in, and we were told it wasn't an issue since the place was still pretty empty), and was well equipped with descriptions and preferences for the wines she was showcasing. This is a personal palate preference for sure, but I just wasn't a fan of the wines. Even the Traminette to me (while definitely perfume-y with a distinct citrus note) seemed too light and bland, and that was a general impression I got from all of the wines I tried, including one of the Ugly Duckling sweet wines and the Chambourcin. It could be the soil in this area of the state, which is probably a bit sandier than what I'm used to from the northern area (I grew up in northern Hunterdon so I have a lot of experience with Alba Vineyard in Finesville, which is basically in the Appalachian foothills), but I didn't like any of them to the point where I thought it was worth bringing a bottle home. I also think it's a huge unforced error on Working Dog's part not to have some type of eating options on the premises, even just a fridge with some informal charcuterie options. This area is totally devoid of any legit eating destinations (I even asked a native of nearby Allentown if he had any recs for a post-winery meal and he simply replied, "No.") so you're basically putting the onus on your customers to ensure that they pack their own provisions for a trip here. That to me is the most obvious and easiest element to improve. This wasn't a terrible experience by any means and I always enjoy sipping some vino with my cousin chums whilst discussing Frasier reruns, but I'd be reluctant to come back given my tepidness on the wine and the lack of food.”

“We had a holiday get together with. Party of 13. Lauren, their event coordinator, did a very thorough and thoughtful job of having us plan the menu. Our service was polite and we were never feeling rushed which was good because we had a lot to talk about! The food was excellent whether it was the salad, the steak, salmon, pork chops, etc. everyone raved about the food as well as the overall experience. We will be back!”

“The best bakery ever! My personal favorite is the fresh french macaroons ! They always have so many flavors ! And the flavors change every week or so. To get authentic fresh French macaroons....is far and few between as the only other bakery that makes them fresh is 2 hours from Trenton/Hamilton. I have tried almost everything from muffins, cake pops, lemon tarts to a variety of cookies. They also make beautiful delicious classy cakes to order! It is has a very cute, clean and warming atmosphere. A small shop with the most fresh and widest variety of desserts and baked goods. It's location is also easy to find and get to! If you haven't tried K K Sweets you have to and you will not be disappointed !”

“I gave this Dispensary a five star rating for a slew of reasons. Number one being the professional set-up(display for the cannabis). Number 2 being the prices as well as the quality of the cannabis. Can’t beat that combination. Well there are out here including the staff but I’d go on and on. I would recommend anybody to pay them a visit.”

“If I could have given it six stars I would have! This was quite a fine! We've lived in the area for a long time and just never stopped in, but everything we had was amazing from the cowboy sushi roll, to the Thai green curry and the Le Dish supreme! The service was great. The atmosphere was wonderful. Really can't complain about anything! And even the prices were reasonable! Highly recommend bringing cash you get 10% off!”

“First time trying and i’m pressed. Store is clean and wide selection. Bread was amazing. Vanilla cake was perfect crumb but icing was too sweet for my liking. Service was quick.”
