As everyone knows the Mighty St. Lawrence has been a historic waterway for centuries. You can't get much better than sitting waterfront on a beautiful summer's day while eating some great food and watching a gigantic freighter go by. We were lucky this past summer...that our stop into Bella's for lunch coincided with a "salty" going by. Well it could have been a "laker". There was a bit of a debate about which is which going on at the table. LOL.. Anyway, we try to get up to Bella's each year and have our family "river day". We're from Central NY. It's a straight shot up Rt. 81 and you're there in no time. Favorite dish? The Lobster Roll, Boathouse Beet Salad, Cranberry Turkey Panini, and anything from the breakfast menu. We can't leave Clayton without taking some of their baked goods home too. The staff has always been great. You can always check the "Marine Traffic" app to see if any ships will be passing by and maybe you can time your visit to Bella's perfectly so you can have some great food and be amazed by how big those boats really are as they glide by.More
