Also – did you hear that Local Hero Pale Lager is now available for sale in the can at Nine Locks Brewing!  What started as a simple idea—to donate 25 cents from every pint sold to local minor sports—quickly became a major success at the Millstone. Local Hero Pale Lager quickly became our top-selling beer, and thanks to your support, we’ve donated thousands of dollars to sports teams across Nova Scotia.

Now, with Nine Locks joining us in this mission, they will also be donating 25 cents from every can sold. That’s right—whether you’re enjoying a pint at one of our four Millstone locations or cracking open a cold one at home, you’ll be helping young athletes thrive in our community.   Stop by today, enjoy a pint, and pick up some cans to take home. Be a Local Hero and help us make a difference, one sip at a time!

 

Local Hero Pale Lager: Proudly Brewed in Nova Scotia & Supporting Local Sports!

At The Millstone Public House, we are committed to giving back to the incredible community that has supported us since day one. That’s why we created Local Hero Pale Lager, a beer with a purpose. Every time you raise a glass of this crisp, refreshing brew, you’re helping support local minor sports—because for every pint sold, we donate 25 cents to teams right here in Nova Scotia.

We’re excited to announce that Local Hero Pale Lager is now brewed locally by the talented team at Nine Locks Brewing in Dartmouth! This exciting partnership means that our giving can go even further, as Nine Locks will also be donating 25 cents from every can sold to local sports teams.

From hockey and soccer to swimming, ringette, and football, we’ve proudly supported countless young athletes across the province—and with your help, we’re just getting started. Thanks to the popularity of Local Hero Pale Lager, it has become our top-selling beer at all four Millstone Public House locations. Now that it will soon be available in cans, we can take our mission of giving back beyond the taps and into your home.

While you may notice a slight change in flavor, one thing remains the same: each sip makes a big difference in our community. It’s truly a win-win for everyone involved—Nova Scotian brewed, locally loved, and fueling the future of sports in our region.

So, the next time you visit on of the four Millstone Public House locations, grab a pint of Local Hero Pale Lager and raise your glass to helping our local athletes. And soon you’ll be able to pick up a few cans for home, knowing that each one sold supports a great cause!

Welcome to the New Millstone Public House in East Hants!

We are incredibly excited to announce that our newest Millstone Public House location opened on July 14, 2024, in East Hants at 1135 Highway 2. As a family-owned business, we’re thrilled to join this tight-knit and growing community.

Owned and operated by Adam and Joanne McCullough from Dartmouth, the Millstone Public House is more than just a restaurant; it’s a family endeavour. Even their two sons contribute by working as hosts and servers. This isn’t a franchise, but a local business dedicated to making a positive impact.

At the Millstone Public House, our focus isn’t just on business; it’s on building community. We’re proud to have created over 100 jobs in the Halifax area and donated more than $25,000 to Feed Nova Scotia, along with countless contributions to other local organizations. One of our special offerings, and something we are very proud of,  is the Local Hero Pale Lager, a beer exclusively available at Millstone Public House.  For every pint sold, 25 cents is donated to support local minor sports.  As this is our top selling draught beer this donation adds up fast and makes a lasting impact on the community.

As it has been since day one at our first ever Millstone in Dartmouth, our menu features amazing dishes made from fresh ingredients and cooked with skill. From the unbeatable Millstone Burger to the crave worthy Maple Curry Chicken Penne our dishes offer an elevated take on pub fare we think you’re going to love.

 

As we get settled into our new community, we are currently not taking reservations at the Millstone in Lantz. We appreciate your understanding as we learn the ebb and flow of business at this new location. We are committed to providing the best possible dining experience and look forward to serving you.  If you’d like to order take out or make an inquiry our phone number is 902-883-8055.  We are located at 1135 Highway 2 in Lantz.

All four of restaurants celebrate the spirit of sport, featuring antique photos of teams, players, and memorable moments. We believe in the joy of coming together over a game, whether you’re an avid player, an enthusiastic sports fan, a supportive parent, or an amazing coach.  We work hard to make the Millstone Public House more than just a place to eat; it’s a welcoming space for everyone, whether it’s a family outing, a date, a team gathering, a business meeting or a quiet moment alone. Our staff is ready to welcome you and make your experience special.

We invite you to come as you are and experience what Millstone Public House is all about. We look forward to serving you and sharing the spirit of sport, community, and great food.

See you soon.

Sincerely,

The Millstone Team.

Burger Week is in full swing! Hurry..it ends Saturday April 20th

Dear Valued Customers,
We regret to inform you that after more than 8 years of offering half price wings every Wednesday night at the Millstone Public House, we must discontinue this beloved promotion. The decision comes as a result of the rising costs of chicken wings, which have significantly impacted our ability to sustain the promotion without operating at a loss.
Like many in the food industry, we are experiencing the effects of increasing food costs, and we have reached a point where continuing the half price wings promotion is simply not financially feasible. However, please rest assured that our commitment to providing high-quality and reasonably priced food remains unchanged.
While we will no longer be able to offer half price wings on Wednesdays, we will continue to serve our delicious chicken wings on the menu at the best price possible. We take pride in the effort we put into maintaining both quality and affordability at the Millstone, and this decision was not made lightly.
We sincerely appreciate your understanding and support during this transition. We value your patronage and look forward to continuing to serve you with the same dedication and excellence that you have come to expect from us.
Thank you for being a part of the Millstone community.
Warm regards,
The Millstone Family
