The Willimantic Brewing Co./Main Street Café is a living landmark restaurant and pub brewery. Housed in what was once a U.S. Post Office, the early 20th century architecture and remnants of post office memorabilia create a pleasant atmosphere for dining. Featured in our dining room is a 12‘ by 17‘ mural, created by Gordan MacDonald, depicting 1920‘s Main Street scene. A 60‘ mahogany bar, crafted by Peter Huckins is the centerpiece of the pub area. Viewed from our Dining Room, our 7 barrel brewery produces our freshly made handcrafted beers. Please feel free to explore our main floor and discover all our hidden treasures.
