Atlantic City Food Tours
Atlantic City in the Ducktown Section
Ducktown is a district of Atlantic City that was heavily settled by Italian immigrants in the 20th century. Over the years, the neighborhood has gone through changes but some of the eateries have passed the test of time. Come hear the rest of Ducktown’s story when you join our walking food tour.
On this tour, you’ll stop at local restaurants that have been established in the neighborhood since the early 1900s and are considered restaurant institutions in the city. First up, Angelo’s Fairmont Tavern has been around since 1935 and has been managed by three generations of the family; here you’ll enjoy homemade traditional Italian comfort food. Next, we’ll stop in for an Italian sub at White House Sub Shop, which has been in existence for seven decades, serving quality sandwiches and regularly making the list of best subs.
We’ll go next door for a delicious fish taco with a tasty house sauce from Barbera Seafood Market, an Atlantic City landmark for fresh seafood since 1919. Take a walk to the historic boardwalk and stop in 1919 Steel’s Fudge for a mouthwatering sweet treat.
Start your journey off with a tour of The Noyes Arts Garage of Stockton University, the cornerstone of the Arts District in Atlantic City with a mission to promote education, provide resources for emerging artists, and enrich the community. You’ll be glad you joined the tour!
