The Stone Balloon

Unfortunately, the one and only Stone Balloon has been scheduled to close on December 17th. This historic bar has hosted some of the most famous performers and bands. Some of these include: Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, The Dave Matthews Band, Metallica, and Train. Some other favorite cover bands include Mr. Green Genes, Kristen and the Noise, Burnt Sienna, and Love Seed Mama Jump. The Balloon has even been rated by Playboy magazine as one of the top 100 college bars in America. Every single Tuesday and Thursday night you can get $1 Natural Light Drafts, $1.50 Shiner Bock and Moosehead Drafts, $2 One Liquor Rail Drinks, $3 any other drink, and $4 180 and Red Bull. The last Mug night is on December 15th and the last actual night at the Balloon is the 17th. Sadly, these mugs are no longer sold: ( Make sure you check out the Balloon before it closes. You'll definately have a good time!)

Stone Balloon is located on 115 East Main StreetNewark, DE 19711.

Bloom
If you walk down Main Street you may come across a teeny store with extravagent window decor. This little store that you walk past is called Bloom. Not many people know about Bloom. I couldn't even find information pertaining to their location on the internet. Despite their lack of marketing, they do seem to have a steady flow of customers coming in and out of the store. Bloom carries a variety of housewarming gifts including candles, frames, cards, and other various odds and ends. Bloom is one of Newark's best kept secrets. This gift shop has many gifts to choose from. I once bought my sister an assortment of goodies for her birthday and the present was a hit. So next time you need to buy a gift- stop in Bloom!

Bloom is located next to Abbott's Shoe Repair, Bert's Record Store, and Cafe Gelato

D.P. Dough

Okay, I don't care how healthy you are, at one point in time everyone has had D.P. Dough. Their calzones have to be one of the best "late night" foods around. Fortunately or unfortunately(however you like to see it), Newark has a D.P. Dough. Like many other college campus towns, Newark's D.P. Dough is located on Main Street. D.P. Dough can be seen as the fear of the incoming, toothpick-size freshman or the friend to those looking for cheap food. Many a Thursday, Friday, or Saturday night is spent by college students and Newark residents at this establishment. They have the Roni-Zone, the Pesto Zone, The loading zone, and the buffer zone among various other zones. You name it, they have some sort of crazy calzone made to please your taste buds. If you're looking after your weight, this would NOT be the be place to go (unless you want to get one of their salads). They even have the construction zone, which is where you can build your own calzone. So, if you're looking for a place to eat late night- D.P. Dough is where to go.

What kinds of calzones can you get?
