https://www.oldemillinn.com/grain-house/menus/We have so much history in this area. This restaurant has gone though many changes since the land was first bought in 1768, predating our country. Did George Washington sleep here? Who knows. They have the same question. The property did store grain for the troops in the Revolutionary War. We are lucky to be in an area with so much history.
The food is American fare. It includes burgers, fish, and a number of salads that you can add shrimp, salmon, or chicken. It sounds fun and casual in a historic setting. There is happy hour in the Coppertop Pub until 6pm.
There is a parking lot.
