Tales From an Urban Chef

When the word “Quakertown” comes to mind, great food isn’t immediately associated with that town. It’s not a culinary juggernaut by any sense of the word.

My brother-in-law urged us to try this tiny BYOB years ago, and to this day, we can’t go anywhere else, but La Campagna. It’s a hidden gem in the woods of Nockamixon State Park, which appears to be in a used to be office building. There is absolutely nothing fancy about the place. It’s simple in design, but the food is out of this world.

Mussels, Caesar salad, and Bruschetta are rop notch. My wife gets the Frutti di Mare with clams, mussels, shrimp, and cod in a white wine sauce and I opt for the Ripieno which is a stuffed chicken breast, breaded and pan fried on a bed of risotto. Amazing! Their desserts are made in-house, and the staff are beyond friendly!
