The Best Restaurants in South Jersey, Picked by Locals

Hungry? You’re in the right place. South Jersey has a better food scene than most people realize. We have BYOBs with pasta made by hand that morning, taverns older than the country, and diners that still bake their own cheesecake. We also have strong opinions about pork roll and about where to find a cheesesteak. That’d be on a round poppy seed roll in the city of Camden.

New park opens at former Cherry Hill swim club site

Nobody's splashing, but kids are having fun again at the former site of a Cherry Hill swim club. Kingston Park has opened on a nearly four-acre that once was the longtime home of Kingston Estates Swim Club, a gathering spot for area residents from 1957 to 2020. Cherry Hill spent $4.7 million to buy the site, demolish the club and build the recreation area over several budget years. The park includes separate play areas with cushioned surfaces for younger and older children at Deland and Princess avenues in the Kingston neighborhood. Preserved property: Cherry Hill farm returns to agricultural roots The property includes basketball courts, a street hockey rink, a walking path and a pavilion for community use, according to a statement from the township. In a sign of changing tastes in recreation, the park now has multiple cornhole boards. It does not retain some time-honored features of the swim club — like bocce and shuffleboard courts, ping pong tables, and a tetherball pole. One feature echoes the property's past. A concrete seal that served as Kingston Estates' mascot was removed and restored during the playground project. The seal is now positioned to greet visitors at the park's entrance. The

Tiny NJ suburb boots 138-year booze ban in historic vote

Let’s drink to that! A New Jersey suburb voted Tuesday to ditch its 138-year-old prohibition on liquor licenses, paving the way for booze sales. Located in Camden County — roughly six miles outside Philadelphia — the borough of Collingswood had been famously dry for generations before residents backed the binding referendum , according to NJ.com.
