Our Teenage Mutant Ninja Burger is loaded with zesty pizza sauce, ooey-gooey cheddar cheese, crispy pepperoni, savoury parmesan, and a sprinkle of fresh arugula. It could be our best Burger Week creation yet!

Here’s to a spectacular New Year!

Sincerely,
The Millstone Public House Team

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.

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.

As we tip our toes into the new world this fall we are beginning to gather together again.  Masks on, palms sanitized, we nod instead of shaking hands, limit hugs and keep a distance; but we need to be together.  Even animals in the wild come together at the water hole.  Our collective will to limit the spread of Covid 19 is strong, and we as a province have proven that we care enough about each other to do what is needed to keep our people safe.   But, done safely, we can still be together.

At the Millstone Public House we continue to offer sanitizing spray at the door, single use menus, physically distanced tables and more.  Our staff have always worn masks and are now greeting customers at the door who also wear face coverings that can’t entirely hide their smiles. Sure it’s weird, but it’s also a daily demonstration of togetherness.  Care for the common good.  It’s not forever, but it is for now…

We would like to invite you to join us for Brunch at the Millstone Public House.  After a busy week it can be a real treat to let someone else make the eggs and fry up the bacon.  Having someone else top up your coffee or bring you another Mimosa is also not a bad way to enjoy a few leisurely hours on a Saturday or Sunday.  Call a friend or family member and pop down to the Millstone for Brunch this weekend.  We’d love to serve you.

Our full menu is available on our website HERE.

*During brunch service, which runs Saturday and Sunday from 11:30 – 2:00pm, we also offer our fabulous burgers, pasta dishes, appetizers and more.

Check out our new online ordering system.  We think it’s pretty slick.  www.millstonepublichouse.com

At this point in the new year you may be searching for ways to add a little more greens and fresh veggies into your life.  After a month of chocolates and cookies your body could be craving the elegant crunch of a crisp salad and we’ve got just what you’re looking for.  Chef Jamie has put two NEW salads on our menu and they have really raised the game.

First we have the Caprese Salad.  It is a true Italian classic with simple yet exceptional taste.  Thick sliced tomato, thick cut buffalo mozzarella, fresh basil, house made balsamic reduction, sea salt and cracked black pepper.  It packs a punch of freshness, texture and flavour!  Try it once and you’ll be packing your bags for Naples.

Next we have a NEW Spinach Salad that is sure to please.  Fresh Baby Spinach with dried cranberries, pistachio nuts, hard boiled egg, crumbled goat cheese and red onion tossed in a delicious house made grapefruit vinaigrette dressing.  *Add seared scallops or shrimp to kick it up a notch and you’ll be glad you did!

To check out our new menu click HERE , then give us a call to book a table.  We’d love to see you.

We’d now like to take a moment to celebrate our first 365 days in business in Bedford with a full week of awesome specials!

As we enjoy this beautiful holiday Monday we may wish to raise a glass to the woman responsible for this National long weekend. Her name is Queen Victoria…and until 2015 when Queen Elizabeth stole the title she was the longest reigning monarch in England. With a total of 63 years on the throne this must be viewed as a rather large accomplishment in a time when many people did not live past 40. The period of her reign was known appropriately as the Victorian Era which is hallmarked by strict standards of personal morality and dress.

Victoria was born on May 24th, 1819 and was the fifth in line to the throne. When all four of her brothers died without heirs she ascended to the throne following a rather sad and lonely childhood. She was an 18 year old Queen, married to her first cousin when someone tried to kill her during her first pregnancy! She went on to have eight children and many more assassination attempts all while ruling an empire until her death in 1901 at the age of 81.

Her legacy includes the gradual establishment of a modern constitutional monarchy and reforms to the voting system which increased the power of the House of Commons and reduced the rule of the house of Lords. This forever changed the role of the British Monarchy and informs the way in which the current Queen interacts with the Prime Minister. In 1867, Walter Bagehot wrote that the monarch only retained “the right to be consulted, the right to encourage, and the right to warn.”

What a lady. What a life.

Both Millstone locations will be CLOSED on Monday May 21st.

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