davecallahan Says: This is a huge metal one story building with wall-to-wall, ceiling-to-floor stuff.It is one booth after another of odds-and-ends that you might want to buy.There are farm goods (in season: corn, strawberries, peaches, apples, beans, etc.etc.).You can get straw hats, or...
PhillyJohn Says: I highly recommend the guided tour of the old court house. The guides are (I believe) volunteers who are very knowledgeable about the town and Delaware history. You will even find out why the state of Delaware has the only rounded border of any state! Be aware that there are...

Jessop's Tavern: Don't miss this place!
kooka3 Says: This is a beautiful place with wonderful food. It's a long room with old beams on the ceiling and wood floors. There's a long bar with 10 padded stools and stained glass around the back of the bar. There are a couple booths in the back of the restaurant, but mostly there are...
Seasons Kitchen: Chinese Food ... Yellow Rice ?
April1985 Says: At work, a few co-workers wanted to get take out. Chinese sounded like, something we all wanted. So, Seasons Kitchen it was ! Now, again, I know I am comparing a lot of this stuff to South Jersey, but, what can I say, we have good food there! Now, this Chinese food was good,...
Dom's Deli - Subs - Steaks - Sandwich: Huge Sandwich !
April1985 Says: So this was the first place I ate at. I decided I wanted a sandwich. There are great deli's in NJ so, of course I have to compare. From outside, it looked like a hometown deli, that if I were a tourist, I would not have stopped for. It is in a row or other stores as well....
IHOP International House of Pancakes: i stop for i hop
davecallahan Says: I don't know how they do it but they can take a line of people a half a block long (exagerating) and get them all seated in under a half hour.It always seems that this place is busy when we go there. Most other places, I would just turn around and find someplace else to eat...
Pizza Hut: we never went back....
davecallahan Says: It was late. We had been driving all day. We were starved and needed some food fast.Luckily we found a Pizza Hut that served a pizza within 15 minutes because that is more time than we could stand in this restaurant.Friday night, pizza parlor on main highway and no customers...
The Arsonal is a great spot to visit during the day, but if your ever in town during a Wednesday Night and want to have a few drinks and try out your singing skills, then The Arsonal is where you want to go. Things usually kick off at around 9:30 -10:00. The dj is an amazing singer and has just about everything you can imagine from Country, Rock, R&B, literally EVERYTHING!! It's a great place to just go, hang out and have some fun.
Dress Code: There is no dress code.

tpangelinan Says: You should park and walk. You will step back in time! Walk around a town George Washington, William Penn, and George Read once walked around too.This town has been around since 1651!
Cactus Wren Gallery: Native American Jewelry and Arts
kooka3 Says: They have an extensive variety of Native American jewelry here, representing over 100 artists. It varies depends on what you get
tpangelinan Says: There are a couple of shops to choose from. Look for bargains only! Fake antiques abound in these small shops in Delaware. Good luck with that...
davecallahan Says: We have very few of these in our part of New York. Legal U-Turns, that is.In Delaware in general, on most of the interstate highways, the center divider keeps you from turning left into the entrance way for many businesses. So you have to drive by the business that is on...
Take a walk through the old town...
tpangelinan Says: and then down by the river. If you are lucky enough, pack a lunch and picnic here, or ride bikes! It is a nice town. Check out the little shops along your way.
davecallahan Says: These local issues seldom affect tourists directly (unless you happen to be at the wrong place at the wrong time) but it is always good to know the facts and be safe.The New Castle newspapers have been riddled with stories about drug related activites over the last 6-9...
davecallahan Says: The crime statistics show that New Castle rates about average for crime risk.In a six-year study, the yearly average showed no murders, 2 rapes, 5 robberies, 25 assaults, 30 burglaries and 190 thefts. There was nothing alarming in those numbers.BUT....there are 125 sex...
Helpfulness
Tomb stones from over two hundred years ago here. Some are hard to read. If you are lucky enough to go inside the church, you will know what it is to sit and pray where others were in George Washington's time.

Helpfulness
You can bring a bike and ride for miles around Old New Caslte and Battery Park along the Delaware River.
Equipment: Bring your lunch, (perfect picnic grounds). Bring fluids also, strict codes have prohibited much business from sprouting up, and the Restaurants open when the feel like it.
Parking is free. It is pretty crowded, so go in the morning if you don't like crowds.

davecallahan Says: The city of New Castle is in New Castle County but it is not the county seat. That honor goes to the city of Wilmington.New Castle County has about 500000 people and is by far the most populace county in Delaware (there are only three counties). It is also the most hectic...

Nice place to visit, lots of history. You get Philadelphia type history with Delaware prices and ease of traffic and crowds.
New Castle is about 10 minutes south of Wilmington, and worth a few hours to look around if you have time.
Yep, I work in New Castle. I have only worked here for a week, so I am still exploring. Now, I live in Atlantic City, NJ. So, it is a long commute to New Castle. But, I take Rt. 40 all the way there,...
