Excellent local ice cream made on site. You can get there walking the greenway, which I recommend in summer. Look for a bike rack on the left side of trail with a short switch back path leading up to Blue Clow.

Nice restaurant with indoor & outdoor seating right on the greenway. I like to park near River's Edge park and walk to it.

This is a good, budget friendly steak house. Nothing too fancy, but the steaks are good and the salad and potato bar is really nice. The train memorabilia is interesting.

Tasty and cheap. They haven't updated much since the 50's, including the prices. You can still get a hamburger for $1.50. Basic, basic, basic....like what mom used to make when money was tight.

Great ramen and other Japanese food. My wife's favorite is hibachi steak and the kids like the salty salmon & katsu curry.
