HOPATCONG-SPARTA, NJ – We know every town has its fair share of hidden gems, so what sets Hopatcong-Sparta apart from the rest? For a lot of people, it’s the food and the restaurants that have been the focal point of many memories.

We asked on Facebook, and Patch Readers told us which gems shine brightest in their neighborhoods.
