NJ 101.5 Finds Hidden Gem-Robin’s Nest Restaurant in Downtown Mount Holly

Posted on

Robin Winzinger’s dream took shape almost 40 years ago when her mother bought a rundown building in the center of downtown Mount Holly.

It was 1986 and the town had been through some tough times. It is the county seat of Burlington County and not much was happening in the way of business in town.

That has changed quite a bit in the last three-plus decades but what has remained the same is the quality and charm of this New Jersey hidden gem of a restaurant.

Downtown Mt. Holly has seen a rebirth in recent years and the town is loaded with history and gritty charm. The Robin’s Nest is a woman-owned and operated business that oozes character, and quaintness and offers great house-made food in a unique cozy atmosphere.

The menu is simple yet diverse and offers made-from-scratch desserts from their bakery. Robin was a pastry chef all those years ago in a small bakery in Haddonfield.

If you’ve never been to Mt. Holly, it is worth the trip from anywhere to check out the quaint, historic little downtown and especially The Robin’s Nest. The town is not far off exit 5 of the New Jersey Turnpike and this restaurant is worth the trip.

The charming historic building is on the corner of High Street and White in downtown Mt. Holly.
