Nestled in the heart of Central New Jersey, our vibrant downtown district pulses with the energy of a community passionate about food, culture, and connection. As the proud stewards of this gastronomic haven, the Downtown Somerville Alliance (DSA) invites you to embark on a culinary journey like no other. From cozy bistros serving up traditional Italian fare to trendy fusion restaurants blending flavors from around the globe, our dining scene is as diverse as it is delicious.

Our bicycle recipients don’t just receive a bike; they also receive a new future. Your donation will hugely impact and completely change the life of a member of our community. We’ll be holding a two-day bike drive to accept your bike donations!
