The Yardley Inn is located on River Road and
East Afton.
The Inn has a plain and simple Victorian era
charm. Check out the pictures of the Delaware River flooding near the
entrance. If you are making reservations and want a good view of the river,
be sure to let them know. We sat right by the window and had an
excellent view of the river. There is a gas log fireplace in the corner of
the room.
We went for their brunch. Our son opted for
the waffles and blueberries.
I shared some of the Marguerita Salad
which was a true taste sensation. I started with a tomato and white bean
soup which was the soup de jour ($5) . I prefer my soup without a lot of
pepper. The soup was exactly the way I like it. I ordered the Grilled
Paillard of Chicken ($11) which comes with Boursin mashed potatoes and
roasted garlic jus. I also ordered a cappuccino which came in an oversized
cup.
For desert I ordered the chocolate cake which
was chocolate mousse with a crunch cookie like crust. Delicious..
There is plenty of free parking in their lot.
There are a few shops nearby and walking paths along the old canal. |
The Yardley Inn is very close to the Delaware river – so you get an
excellent view from the enclosed dining porch .
Food is Top Notch. Clam chowder ($6)had a tomato base with many tender
clams and carrots. The popular Marguerita salad was incredibly good – with
candied walnuts, chunks of blue cheese, melon, strawberries – all over baby
spinach leaves. The crab cake ($14) was extremely fresh and it was
full of crab chunks. The vegetables were mash potatoes and carrot and squash
medley. For dessert I had Tiramisu. Go any chance you can – indulge—than
relax and linger ---while the river floats by.
