Enjoy beer or wine from the Mill Street Grille's extensive bar while also drinking in the history of the building. Built in 1927 as the Waldron Hotel, the building has housed a radio station, the district court's holding cells, and even Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. for a meeting in 1958. The ambience of the site remains today, with ruby-red walls and cherry wood hugging diners as they gently coo within their cocoons of good food and $2 beer specials.
