Dining

There’s no need to pack a lunch if you’re coming to Princeton for the day. Over a dozen restaurants are waiting for you to stop in and enjoy some home cooking.

These are the kinds of places that Presidential candidates visit to show how regular they are, the places where the waitress knows your name and your regular order, and begins to worry if you don’t show up at your regular time. If you arrive in the morning, you’re likely to run into groups of locals solving local and world problems at their daily coffee-and-breakfast get-togethers.

If you are in town for an afternoon of shopping there are a variety of satisfying dining options along our business districts. If you’re looking for something beyond familiar country cooking, we have places that specialize in Asian and Mexican food, and even a restaurant that offers a gluten-free pizza!

In Princeton, you can cook your own steak just the way you like it at a communal grill, or satisfy your sweet tooth at a spot that specializes in doughnuts, pies, or homemade baked goods. Wherever you choose to eat in Princeton, we promise that you won’t go home hungry!
