For just $30 you will be handed 8 deliciously cold 3 ounce beer samples to enjoy plus finger foods that pair well with good times. Funds raised will be donated to the Heart & Stroke Foundation!

After proudly serving this great community for just over a year and a half it must be said that we love what we do.  When we began to dream about the Millstone, back in the fall of 2015, we imagined a place that would welcome everyone and make lone diners and groups of 30 feel at home in our Public House.  The softness of the leather booths, the roughness of the antique rowing paddles, the smoothness of the 300 year old bar top….it’s all meant to give our valued customers a sense of calm and a pinch of nostalgia.  The muted sports theme is a call to remember what it means to play and an invitation to do it again.

We are very happy to announce that we have been offered the chance to breathe life into another Millstone Public House, this one in Bedford.  Cindy Toner and Jason Plotsky, owners of the new Sante Centre, dined with their young family at our pub back in the spring of this year.  They loved it, they felt it…they got it and something inspired them to ask if we would be interested in developing the last vacant space in their building.  Humbled by their offer, we began to imagine another labour of love coming together across the water.  It felt both exciting and daunting but once again the faces staring out from our antique sports photos said ‘do it, you are here but once”.  We leaned in and said yes.

From that moment to this one we’ve been hard at work pulling it all together.  It must be warm, welcoming and inspiring.  The food must comfort and wow our guests.  From paint colours, to unique decorations and the padding in the chairs, it’s all been carefully considered to invite our new friends to dine with us.  We are grateful for the chance and excited at what’s to come!

The official grand opening is scheduled for November 18th and will be celebrated in style by the entire Sante building.  Our doors are likely to crack open before then though.  Like proud parents, we can’t wait to introduce our new baby.  Stay tuned here for details.

To everyone who has raised a glass at the bar, a burger at a table and an eyebrow in conversation at the Millstone Public House we want to  take a moment to sincerely thank you for inviting us into your lives and giving us this chance to do what we love to do!  Cheers to many more…

Sincerely,

Adam and Joanne

You can travel the world for culinary delights but the truth is the North American contribution to gastronomy centers predominantly around the humble hamburger.  We eat them in the backyard and in our cars, we eat them for lunch and dinner and we never grow tired of the hand held delight.  At the Millstone Public House we have taken this diet staple and kicked it up into position with the finest of foods.

“The Millstone” starts with fresh ground  certified black angus beef, expertly seasoned, rolled into a ball then hand pressed onto a hot griddle to sear in the flavours.  The top side of the buttery bun is then prepared with fresh arugula and sliced plump tomato.  The bottom receives the hot hamburger patty and is topped with sautéed mushrooms and onions, smoked bacon, creamy melty brie cheese and a delicious sauce that oozes over the sides.  This masterpiece is then complimented by our never-frozen hand-cut french fries and a bowl of our oh-so-garlicy caesar salad.  The result is a meal you’ll come back for again and again.

Have you tried it yet?  We hope you’ll come in soon.  To view our full menu please go to www.millstonepublichouse.com

Life is busy and time can be short.  We grab a bite between meetings or scarf down a burger in the car on the way to soccer practice but sometimes we need to slow down and eat some food that took time.  At the Millstone Public House we proudly make things from scratch.  Our Seafood Chowder has received universal rave reviews from customers, family members and critics and we think it’s because our Chef knows how to make things with layers of flavour using fresh ingredients and the right amount of time.  It’s not easy.  It takes years of study and endless practice to make it look effortless but the truth is that things just taste better when they are done right.

Take our Seafood Linguine for example.  The pasta is cooked to a perfect ‘al dente’ when the order is made.  There are a million ways to ruin pasta but when your Chef spent months living in Italy you know it’s going to be done just right.   The fresh seafood is then tossed in garlic butter and sautéed perfectly to ensure it is cooked but not overdone.  Then comes the fresh cream, garlic, seasonings and other fresh ingredients that elevate the dish to something you’re really going to love.  Why is it so good?  Time…and experience…and knowledge…and skill.

We hope to see you at the Millstone soon.  We are open from 11:30 am daily. To view our full menu please see our website at www.millstonepublichouse.com
