Richard & Son, and  DSW Shoe Warehouse.  Among the popular restaurants in town is O'Connor's Beef 'n Ale, an Irish establishment known for affordable prices and a generous salad bar, and the Prime Steak House. Another gathering place is Melissa's Deli, in the Triangle business area, which also includes a florist, a jeweler, a pizzeria, and a Chinese restaurant.  The closest major malls are the Mall of Short Hills, 13 miles to the northeast, and Bridgewater Commons, 12 miles to the west.

Living –  The 6.2-square-mile community of Watchung sweeps across two ridges of the Watchung Mountains, wedged between New Jersey Route 22 and Interstate 78. But unlike many other bedroom communities, Watchung offers large properties, undulating hills, narrow winding roads, abundant wildlife and two lakes: Lake Watchung and Best Lake.

Schools, Health, Transportation - Students in Kindergarten through eighth grade are educated by the Watchung Borough Schools.  Watchung's students in public school for grades 9-12 attend Watchung Hills Regional High School in Warren Township together with students from the neighboring communities of Green Brook Township and Warren Township (in Somerset County) and Long Hill Township (in Morris County).  Minutes from some of the top hospitals including JFK Medical Center, Robert Wood Johnson Hospital, Somerset Medical Center, and Morristown Medical Center.  It is roughly a 40 minute drive to New York City, and a 30 minute drive to Newark.  Newark Liberty International Airport is 15 miles away.
