Cresskill Food & Drink

Cresskill supports a surprisingly varied dining scene for a two-square-mile borough, with Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cooking, Japanese and pan-Asian menus, Vietnamese food, kosher dining, pizza, bagels and neighborhood casual options.

Most choices cluster around Union Avenue, Piermont Road and Madison Avenue, making it easy to combine dining with other downtown errands.
