Restaurant Review
The Lambertville Station Restaurant is the most popular, largest, and touristy of Lambertville's restaurants.
The restaurant is located in a restored 19th-century train station prominently at the end of Bridge Street, overlooking the canal and the Delaware River. The decor is upscale and contemporary.
Ask to sit downstairs along the windows, where you'll have a dining experience with nice views of the canal and the Delaware River.
There is also casual dining and live entertainment downstairs at the Station Pub.
The Traditional menu includes salads, soup, sandwiches, comfort food, and entrees.
While healthy grass-fed beef and fresh local farm-to-table ingredients are used, the preparation and presentation of the menu items tend to be inconsistent.
The wine cellar offers a selection of over 50 boutique wines, which can be enjoyed by the bottle or glass. Stone walls and ceilings with original exposed beam work from the 1800s are complemented by contemporary furnishings in rich shades of chocolate brown and turquoise.
Expect to wait for a table during the peak seasons.
The service is attentive and friendly, although rushed during the peak hours and tourist seasons, especially in the Spring and Fall.
