The Yardley Inn

Yardley new american date night cocktails

Built in 1832 as the White Swan Inn, this white-clapboard spot sits right where the old covered bridge crossed the Delaware, and the kitchen still cooks off named sources like Griggstown quail and Loch Duart salmon. Get a table by the water while you can: the whole building comes down in 2027 for a larger replica, though they stay open right up until then.
