The Raven

My first visit here this evening in celebration of a friends"s birthday. Great bar staff, excellent nibbly bites to eat and a wonderful room ! Thanks to all the staff, a great experience.

The Raven has undergone several reincarnations in recent years, including a near death experience a few years back but thankfully it survived. The days when the Raven was part of the New Hope gay trinity of the Raven, the Prelude and the Cartwheel are long gone but it remains a good destination for day trips from NYC or Philly. And of course their infamous drinks have kept the local DWI legal eagles fully employed for decades.

The food here is awful awful awful.

The Raven pool is fun in summer, but unfortunately the gay scene in New Hope is aging.  Most nights you wish you'd gone to Philly.
