Babe’s Grill House

Hours | M-F 4pm-11pm, S-Sun 11:30am-11pm
You may know it as Babe’s Grill House; we know it as Babe’s Grill “home” to some of the best organic, locally sourced menu items. Farm-to-table ingredients highlight the hard work of local farmers, plows, and pastures. Sample an array of saucy wings, pair them with a soup and salad, or dive into the Smoked Brisket Sandwich. Plan on taking a short drive from 1825 Inn Bed and Breakfast for a craft beer or sweet cocktail while tuning in to a game or two, or team up for a Trivia night extravaganza.
