A Vineyard Escape Minutes from New Hope & Lambertville

Your Guide to a Weekend of Shopping, Dining, Theater
& Wine Country

If you’re looking for one of the Mid-Atlantic’s most enjoyable weekend getaways, start with New Hope, Pennsylvania and Lambertville, New Jersey.

These neighboring river towns are known for their charming streets, independent boutiques, art galleries, exceptional dining, and scenic views along the Delaware River. But what many visitors don’t realize is that just 10 minutes away lies another destination that deserves a place on every itinerary.

Old York Cellars invites you to trade the bustle of downtown for the rolling hills of Hunterdon County, where vineyard views, guided wine tastings, chef-crafted cuisine, and unique winery experiences await.

Whether you’re planning a romantic weekend, celebrating a special occasion, or simply looking for a memorable day trip, here’s how to make the most of your visit.

Friday Evening: Arrive & Settle In

Turn your visit into a weekend by staying at one of the area’s iconic boutique hotels.

On the New Jersey side, Lambertville Station Restaurant & Inn places you within walking distance of Lambertville’s restaurants, galleries, and shops.

Across the river in New Hope, the elegant Ghost Light Inn overlooks the Delaware River and sits beside the historic Bucks County Playhouse, making it an ideal home base for exploring both towns.

Spend your first evening strolling Bridge Street and Main Street, browsing boutiques, enjoying dinner, and taking in the unique atmosphere that has made these neighboring towns one of the Delaware Valley’s favorite destinations.

If you appreciate beautiful home décor and design, don’t miss Zinc Home + Garden, one of Lambertville’s signature shopping destinations featuring thoughtfully curated furniture, accessories, gifts, and seasonal décor.

Then cross the bridge into New Hope.

Browse the town’s eclectic mix of galleries and specialty shops before stopping at Ferry Market, where artisan food vendors, coffee, local beverages, and outdoor seating make it a great place to relax before continuing your day.

If you’re spending the evening in town, check the schedule at the renowned Bucks County Playhouse, one of the country’s premier regional theaters, or unwind with a glass of wine and small plates at Nektar Wine Bar.
