A Family TraditionServing You for Over 65 Years
The Steak House was opened in 1957 by Fred and Annie "Jo" Howey. At that time, the restaurant was only the front two dining rooms and Fred and Jo raised their three children, Dave, Dale and Kay in the apartment directly above the main dining room and kitchen.
In 1979 their eldest son, Dave and his wife Barb, purchased the family restaurant and converted the garage and parking spaces into the third dining room we call the"Tea Room", paying homage to the Orange Tea Room that was in this location prior to 1957. Geoff and I purchased The Steak House from my parents in 2005 to become the third generation to have the honor to welcome you and your friends and family to "our house". We hope you enjoy your dinner, our company and our fine town! - Chris & Geoff Coffee |
