New Jersey’s northern counties are full of small towns and stunning scenery. Luckily for those of us who live up in the Skylands and Hudson Highlands, there are also a ton of great homestyle restaurants around! What the rural towns of northern New Jersey lack in chains, they make up for in mom-and-pop old-fashioned dining rooms. One of these, in Vernon, is called the Lamp Post Inn.
You’ll find the Lamp Post Inn a short drive from Mountain Creek, which makes it a popular spot for people who are hiking, biking, skiing, or enjoying the resort waterpark.

You’ll walk in to the bar first - if you just want a drink and some bar bites, come on in and make yourself at home.

For a more formal meal, head to the dining room. There’s hardly ever a crowd here on a weekday, but during the weekends, you may have to wait for a table. The people of Vernon know where to find good food.

While the Lamp Post Inn has a variety of dishes on their menu, it’s the Italian food that brings people back again and again. From pasta to pollo to vitello, every entree is cooked fresh to order and packed with flavor.
