Tips for Dining, Eating and Food Shopping in New Jersey

Quick Sat. lunch in Lawrenceville area?

I'm going to be in the Lawrenceville area and won't have much time for lunch on a Saturday. Any suggestions on where I should go? All the L'ville restaurants I know are more formal affairs and I just don't have that much time. Any type of food is fine, so long as it's high quality.

  1. In actual Lawrenceville, there's a cute cafe called the Fedora Cafe. People really seem to like it. They have a funky menu that's all over the place. I've only been once and it was just a fun experience. A lot of the kids from The Lawrenceville School come in, and they cater to that crowd to a certain degree, but it's not a raucous kiddie joint. More of a "coffee house" vibe with a full menu. The soups are supposed to be very good.

      Have not been to Fedora in several years. U was a regular some years back. It will likely fit your needs, but it can be busy. It is VERY popular, at least it was when I used to go. It is right on 206 just a mile (maybe) north of the 295 exit for Lawrenceville.

    2. Simply Radishing in the Lawrence Mall. It has a variety of soups, sandwiches, entrees and very good salads. They also have vegetarian selections. I've always had a great lunch here.

        Unfortunately, Simply Radishing recently closed:( I think their location finally did them in.

          Oh, that's too bad! I agree the location wasn't the best. Thanks for the info.
