This is one of the oddest travel plazas I've ever stopped at, and I'll describe why shortly. It's…read moresomewhat easy to access, being off of Interstate 80, and either the first or last exit with services in New Jersey. It has gas if you need it. The interior is the odd part, as I've never seen the Auntie Anne's or Sbarro's open, and I've stopped here several times. I've seen both the Chick-Fil-A and Starbucks open, but if you stop here on a Sunday? The Starbucks might be the only option. The Chick-Fil-A here is also expensive. Why stop here? The bathrooms are clean and it's perhaps this travel plaza's best feature. There is a small convenience store that has a limited selection if you are in a pinch. Overall, for most people, you'll want to stop at the TA a short drive down the road instead.

The trucks use the areas on both sides for parking, so keep an eye out for them too. The rest area has the usual with restrooms, vending machines and a spot for dog walking. It's nice and green here, a great break from fighting with highway traffic. Unlike New York, Pennsylvania does not have limits on how long you can stay and I did not see any signs.

My tendency to drive non-stop until I arrive at my destination is foolhardy because of the higher likelihood of developing lower extremity blood clots, and also as my body nature's my joints stiffen up more readily.

I did notice that they had changed the name from the previous New York State rest stop and they had did a lot of remodeling to the inside and outside. They had a lot of great things to offer like a Chick-fil-A, Panda Express, Shake Shack, Starbucks and they even had an espresso bar station. It was really high end looking and a lot better than what I expected. The bathrooms were very busy, but they were also very clean. I also like that there was a lot of seating and a lot of tables for people to sit down and maybe work or eat with your friends and family while you are on the road. I also felt like the prices were pretty reasonable compared to what I've noticed, just coming from the airport.

My visit here was on October 5, 2019. After some issues debarking the cruise due to technical issues, we got to our driver to get us back to southern New Jersey where we would be staying for a few days before going home. All of us needed to use the restroom, so we stopped at this rest stop. This was a typical rest stop, but not like others I have seen in New Jersey along the turnpike. This rest area had a convenience store and gas. Many of the others have more options than a convenience store, such as fast food restaurants and the such. The good thing is that we weren't looking for any food items, just the restroom. The restrooms here were clean and maintained, which you don't always find at rest areas. The inside was your typical convenience store, but a bit larger. There's lots of snack and drink items here if you are looking for that kind of stuff. There is a Sunoco gas station at this rest area as well if you need gas. Gas was not needed at this time, so there was no stop there. Overall, this was just a rest stop. If you need to get some gas, use the restroom, or just get a few snack type items, this would be a place to stop. Further down, it seemed quite a few of their rest areas were closed for renovations. Although there was nothing to wow me about this place, it did get the job done and back on the road to my destination.

Server at dinner was friendly, but food took over one hour with little apology or explanation. Food itself was way below expectations for standard cafe fare (pizza, sandwiches, salad).

The staff was friendly and helpful. Couldn't beat the price either- great AAA discount! Would stay here again in a heartbeat
