Dinner and a show!

February is technically the shortest month of the year, but for many it feels like the longest. If you are looking for a way to shake things up and stir up your soul a little, we would like to invite you to the Millstone King’s Wharf this Saturday to enjoy some beautiful live music!

We are thrilled to welcome the talented Willie Stratton to the stage on February 25th at 8:30pm.  Tickets are $15 before or $20 at the door.  If you’d like to buy them ahead of time you can email Megan@millstonepublichouse.com  or call the restaurant at 902-404-8053 or stop in at King’s Wharf.

“For more than a decade now, Willie Stratton has been building his good name on stellar sonic shape-shifting. The Halifax-based singer-songwriter has proven time and again that he can dive into any of rock ‘n’ roll’s various iterations—heartsick blues, twanged-up country, hip-shaking rockabilly, groovy surf, anything and everything in between—and emerge, again, as a maestro of the style.”  – https://williestratton.com

Call a friend or two, grab a few tickets and come early for a nice dinner before the show.  Live music has a way of connecting us.  You get to truly feel the energy of the artist and the crowd; it’s an unforgettable experience.  If you aren’t already a fan of Willie Stratton, you may well become one!

We will be offering a feature cocktail for the evening.  The Sparkling Raspberry Cosmo!  Light and refreshing..perfect weekend vibes. This delicious concoction will be available at all three locations.

Remember, life opens up when you do. So pull up a barstool and have some  fun.

What would you do with a $100 Bar Tab?

As we round the corner on two years on the waterfront at Millstone King’s Wharf we are constantly told by new customers that they had never been in before….didn’t even know we were there!  Once they settle in to their cozy table they often comment on how great it is to see the water on all three sides of the restaurant.

It’s been a crazy first 22 months in that beautiful spot with many interruptions and restrictions to our operations but we are happy to have taken the plunge and excited about the busy holiday season and more. We are even booking weddings on the water!  What a stunning location to tie the knot and have a party.  If you’re interesting in options to host a wedding, retirement party, birthday, staff event, holiday gathering or more please contact Megan@millstonepublichouse.com

We would love to give you the opportunity to enjoy a great night out on the waterfront and are currently running an online contest where you could WIN a $100 food and beverage tab at the Millstone King’s Wharf.

Live Music at King’s Wharf – Brooklyn Blackmore

Last Thursday we enjoyed Live Music on the Waterfront for the first time and it was a huge success.  The customers sang along and enjoyed a beautiful candlelit evening on the water with friends and family.  At our beautiful King’s Wharf restaurant there are cozy nooks where the music is a little quieter, and barstools where you can get front and centre for the experience.  We hope you will come and check it out.

This Thursday October 27th we welcome award winning singer songwriter Brooklyn Blackmore.

Brooklyn Blackmore delivers captivating lyrics, dynamic vocals, and powerful mel

odies with a vintage feel. Her sound reflects influences of the old-school mystical style of Stevie Nicks and modern artists like Miley Cyrus. Blackmore won the Global Country Star Search in 2016, and Female Vocalist of the Year and Female Entertainer of the Year at the North American Country Music Association International in 2017
