Waterfront Park

• Group outings are possible here at the home of the Trenton Thunder, a minor league affiliate of the New York Yankees. The park is situated along the banks of the Delaware River. The team has been recognized at the “Nation’s Best Franchise.” Who knows what famous player groups may see rehabbing a knee or shoulder injury. We can’t promise you’ll see A.J. Burnett, though. www.trentonthunder.com

Yankee Doodle Tap Room

• This pub, located in the historic Nassau Inn in downtown Princeton, is just dandy for enjoying some cold brews. A dozen world beers are featured on tap. A cozy fireplace and a mural painted by Norman Rockwell in 1937 hanging over the bar complete the atmosphere. www.nassauinn.com
