With its warm, pub-style ambiance and a menu that brings together the best of hearty American fare and upscale comfort food, it’s more than just a place to grab dinner. It’s a local institution.
Walk through the front doors and you’re immediately welcomed by a cozy fire, dark wood finishes, and a rustic elegance that balances tradition with a modern edge. The Moot House feels like home — if home came with a craft beer list and a chef-driven kitchen.
Whether you’re dining with family, meeting friends for happy hour, or enjoying a date night, the menu rises to the occasion. Standouts include their signature Prime Rib, wood-fired flatbreads, and elevated takes on comfort classics, such as the Mac & Cheese with smoked bacon and poblano peppers. The beer-battered fish and chips have loyal fans, while their seasonal features and cocktail selections keep the experience fresh and dynamic.
