Deer Park Tavern is an amazing historic tavern in the heart of Newark. This is where my parents and I ate while visiting Delaware to meet my graduate school which is now the Biden School of Public Policy and Administration, and I've eaten here numerous times during my program between 2013 and 2015 including my 24th birthday in 2014. It was fun coming back a decade later with my wife and best friend. Our friend had a burger and me and my wife shared a Philly Burger and Chicken Cheesesteak which was amazing as well as various beers from their large selection. There is plenty of seating in this rustic tavern and the service is always a great

Stopped for a quick lunch. We were greeted with a big smile from Autumn our waitress. She had our drinks and first round of chips and salsa within 5min. Our food was brought out within 20 min. Autumn didn't wait for chips to go empty before she brought out another serving. We both had the "Chicken Fajita salad with chipotle dressing. So good and fresh. A delicious choice. It's been awhile since I've been to Border Cafe. I'm wondering why? Will be back. The decor is true to the Tex-Mex vibe. Great throw back country, bluegrass "Oldies ballads" playing softly. Perfect lunch.

I've come for breakfast here with friends and family a few times. I've enjoyed the eggs benedicts I've gotten here, especially the crab cake ones. We also had mimosas, and I love how the place just feels rustic. The service was fine and I will definitely be coming back for the brunch.

Starting with a Blue Moon who know where I'll go from there. Coming here for a quick dinner with a great coworker and soon to be Yelp Elite. Checking out the restaurant for the first time during the off semester season while the rest of the Blue Hen UD population is away. This place is always busy during the semester but today it's calm for a drink and bite to eat. No happy hour on Fridays but we still grab some drinks and a French Onion sandwich made with burger meat than roast beef. I'm ok with that. The bread was crispy yet soft along with the dipping sauce gave it some more flavor and didn't make it all soggy. I'll have to continue to check this place out through the year with friends and coworkers.
