Dover is where history meets modern charm, where small-town friendliness meets big-city energy, and where every visitor leaves with a story to tell.
When you step inside the brick façade of Harvey’s, the smell of freshly baked bread immediately hits you in the face, and the long glass display cases show that morning’s fresh goods.
Downtown Dover is sprinkled with so many hidden treasures, but nestled right in the train parking lot is a gem that bagel aficionados will swear by: Bubby’s Bagel and Deli.
