I love this place and happy they have bathrooms now. Back then they did if you knew the people who cleaned the park . The little now gone red house had a tiny bathroom in it.

Still no change in the attitude of squirrels here. They will go in your stroller if they smell food and come right up next to you. Nice little park for kids but be prepared to fend off squirrels!! - Mike

Brooklyn Smorgasbord is too packed for you? This is a smaller version with great food and a beer garden. Perfect lunch spot in the summer. - Scott Sklar
