Mt Ephraim?

Don't shop at Acme, Shop Rite blows them out of the water price wise.

That Walmart is usually a mad house, shoot up to Target in Delran if you can.

All the streets between Rt 130 and River Rd (Broad St) are 25 MPH (except for Cinnaminson Ave) watch your speed.

Brothers Pizza (at the entrance to the Acme near West Coast video) has the best Pizza, but they don't deliver.

If you must have delivery, I like DiVicenzo's on Cinnaminson Ave.

For a Deli Sandwich hit Cioci's in Riverton (right near the light rail stop) or a Breakfast sandwich, which are also good.

For Breakfast Tara's Place, down by the Riverton Rite Aid is reasonable and good.

Plenty of Diners', but I'm partial to Nick's Diner in Delran.

Don't forget about that little Vanity Fair outlet next to the Acme, for anything from a pair of jeans to a small kitchen appliance to a Black and decker tool. They have some pretty good deals in there.

L&M up in Riverside is the best bakery.

Winter's Automotive in Palmyra is an honest place to get your car fixed. Those guys have always done right by me and my family.

That's it off the top of my head.

thanks Bill. I printed everything out.. I heard about brothers, Nicks and L&M already.. We were wondering how Coici's was to. Looks like a nice place .

I try to do most of my Mall shopping at the Moorestown Mall, that Cherry Hill mall is a disaster. Every day is like friggin Black Friday trying to get a spot.

If you need a small Hardware item, Schwerings in Palmyra has a lot of stuff, but they are pricey. You're paying for the convenience of shooting in and out in 2 minutes. If I need something big I hit the Delran Home Depot, as it's usually not that crowded.

The St Charles Carnival is a good time, it's usually right when school lets out, not sure if you have kids, but on one day they have wristbands for the rides, and area merchants sell ride tickets half price prior to the carnival. If you're going to go (and all the kids do) it's a good idea to pick up a couple sheets of tickets.

Again, not sure of your kid situation, but joining the swim club is a good time, you'd have to try and get on the list now, as the spots fill up pretty quick. There are actually 2, but Pomona is better IMO. Pheasant Run is mainly a swim team that happens to have a club. Pomona seems to be the more popular one where people socaliaze and hang out and have a few beers.

excellent Bill! Yes we have a 14 year old Son.. We went to Schwerings 2 weeks ago and was in awe. LOVE that place!

Im sure we will be heading to the home depot too..

I found info on the St Charles carnival.. And the swim clubs.. Thanks!

The swim club is key IMO. Solves the whole "Mom/Dad I'm bored" problem in the summer. If your kid wants to bring a friend, it's like 2 bucks admission.

I initially thought it was a waste of dough, the wife talked me into it, but it turned out to be money well spent.

Lots of kids there running around and playing wiffle ball or whatever, I actually live closer to Pheasant Run, but belong to Pomona.

Oh yea, if the boy likes sports, there's no shortage of youth sports. They have everything you can think of,

Like flyersfan says., Not the best area to raise a family. Not Camden but not Cherry hill either.. I would look towards others area first..
