There has been a roadhouse on this site since 1844. With a rich history, it has hosted everything from church services to vigilante meetings. It was recently renovated and is now an upscale inn with an attached bar and restaurant. The Jordan House Tavern's latest incarnation includes original wooden beams, and the fireplace is made from fieldstones that were part of the Jordan House cellar: the old place is gone, but far from forgotten.
Niagara wines, beers on tap and a full bar are offered along with a menu of casual food that features soups, salads, burgers and other grill items. Watch the world go by on their front porch or stay indoors and play pool, watch TV, or just chat with friends and locals by the fireplace.
Friday and Saturday nights they may have a local band to boogie the night away.
