However, sometimes we tend to visit the same places over and over again instead of getting out and exploring new towns.

Sometimes it's just easier to stay close to home and head to our favorite local restaurants for dinner than travel an hour or even a half hour to a place we've never been to before.

Recently I decided to take a drive and explore a new area of New Jersey.

I can't believe I've lived in the state my entire life and have never visited this gorgeous and historic downtown area.

That's not to say I've never been to this town, but I've never spent an evening strolling the main street and dining at one of the many outstanding eateries in the downtown area.

It was such a great day! I can't wait to go back and try out a new restaurant!

Visit Beautiful and Historic Downtown Bordentown, New Jersey

First, we sat and visited the boat ramp, watching the boats come and go. It was a beautiful Saturday so we sat there for hours.

Next, we walked over to the historic main street, Farnsworth Avenue.

It has so many restaurants to choose from, some BYOB others with a bar.

There was also a brewery with a food truck out front, a coffee shop, and a cute ice cream boutique.

We had dinner at Old Town Pub which had a really cool vibe. I ordered the chicken pesto sandwich and it was delicious.

If you're looking for something fun to do this weekend I recommend you take the drive and visit Bordentown, New Jersey.
