Solberg has no restaurant. Blairstown is ok for a fast burger or something, but I
would recommend either Sky Manor (near Alexandria) or Central Jersey.

If you do go to Sky Manor, be a bit careful about the runway. It runs downhill to the
west. If you're landing to the east, you get the distinct impression that you're high
on final when you aren't. Landing to the west, the numbers are on flat land. Hit
right after the numbers, and everything's fine. Try to land 100' further down, and
you're likely to plant the mains about midfield. Takeoffs to the east present no
problem, other than the long ground roll you'd expect from an uphill run. For some
reason, my plane gets squirrely if I try to raise the tail at the usual airspeed (~40
mph) when taking off downhill. You might want to keep the tail down a bit longer than
usual when departing to the west.

If you're coming through on a Saturday, there are frequently enough unusual aircraft
parked around the place to make it worth the stop for that alone. There are two of
those Russian amphibian aircraft based there.
