Miller Tavern

Story

The Miller Tavern is an historical building located at 3885 Yonge Street, Toronto, Ontario. Originally called the York Mills Hotel, the three-storey building dates to the 1860s. A barn to house horses was located on the north side of the building. Following changes in ownership the hotel was later renamed The Jolly Miller after a local mill owner. It later catered to gamblers and was often raided.The hotel was renovated and turned into a seafood restaurant and renamed with the current name.HistoryEarly in the 19th century, a tavern keeper here named Vallière was offering food and shelter to soldiers returning from the battle area during the War of 1812. His was one of many taverns that for years lined what was little more than a muddy trail leading north from the Town of York. In fact, Yonge Street boasted more taverns than any other road in the province. There were drinking establishments, on one side or another, every half-mile between Toronto and Lake Simcoe.The York Mills Hotel, known today as the Miller Tavern, was a hotel built circa 1857 to replace an earlier establishment which was destroyed by fire. The new hotel was constructed by John and William Hogg, who developed the Hoggs Hollow subdivision on their York Mills property in 1856.The York Mills Hotel was a focal point for the mill village, and a stopping place for the mail stage and omnibus between Toronto and Richmond Hill.During Prohibition in the 20th century, the building housed a gambling den that was eventually closed down following several police raids. In 1930, the old hotel was remodelled with the intent of creating a prestigious dining establishment. It was renamed The Jolly Miller, a name that remains in use to the present day. The sign board depicting a Jolly Miller was painted by noted Canadian artist Charles William Jefferys.

Great burger and sandwich. Little over price, yet they have great beer and wine selection. Also great service by waitresses
I very much enjoy their food and customer service, great location right next to my apartment. The cashiers are always very nice. Will visit here again.
Ordered the New Years Eve takeout special for two Wellington beer not included but a propros. For $120, it was well worth it and delicious. Looking forward to a sit-down meal in the future!
Ordered a burger medium well. Not only was the burger undercooked, but it was legitimately raw. Took one bite and threw the rest out. Not medium rare, or rare, but RAW meat. I didn't order tartar I ordered a Burger. I hope I don't get sick.
absolutely delicious, did take out: bone-in rib eye, garlic spinach, mashed potatoes, mushrooms - the best so far, not salty and flavorful. better than all the steakhouses we tried to this day. easy access with a car, free parking.
Fantastic ambience and very personal service. The food was fresh and enchanting. Will easily recommend this spot to friends. Affordable prices and large portions. Good job.
Love this place! Went here for an engagement dinner for my brother and wouldn’t regret it. The food burger was really tasty! Got ourselves a bottle of wine on their outdoor/ covered patio, so it was covid safe as well. It’s definitely a bit pricey but worth it for a special occasion.
Really nice patio right off Yonge street next to a park. Comprehensive wine list even though it's not what I would come there for. Food quality is decent and the atmosphere is relaxed. Service is prompt friendly and polite.
I was here last week for a birthday party with some friends we’d never been here before and we were wowed with the taste and quality of each dish. We decided we’re going to start coming here more after that one dinner. Service is excellent!
