22 Businesses That Should Come to Mercer County, NJ in 2022

From grocery stores to retailers to fine dining fast-food restaurants, Mercer County, NJ is home to a ton of great businesses that we love.

But, of course, in an area (such as ours) that is constantly evolving and growing, we're always dreaming of what could be next.

In fact, this is always a great topic of conversation amongst locals. So I recently my friends and family in Mercer County to weigh in on a controversial topic: what (chain) businesses do you want to see come to Mercer County in 2022?

Before we get to the list, I'll be explicitly clear: we love mom-and-pop businesses in our area. But if you've ever traveled away from the Northeast and our area, in particular, you know there are some chain businesses in particular that you'd love to try right here in our area.

Though, it seems like every time we debate such a topic in our area that it naturally goes to food. So I expected to see a bunch of comments for burger eateries like Whataburger and In-N-Out, and those were certainly mentioned in the comments on Facebook this weekend when I asked.

But, as you'll see below, there were quite a few eateries that I was surprised to see on the list. Now every time I drive around Lawrence or Hamilton Township, I am going to be wondering if one of these businesses can open in any of the vacancies that we see.

So I made a list of the 22 businesses we'd like to see open in Mercer County in 2022. What did I get right? What did I get wrong? Open the PST app and press chat right now to sound off!
