01 / The story of this place
Make time for these
Rochester Mills brews its own ales and lagers on site in the old mill, which keeps its original hardwood floors, exposed brick and wooden beams, plus pool tables and an outdoor patio. It advertises live entertainment every Friday and Saturday night and keeps a Live Music & Events calendar. The yearly Oktoberfest in September 2026 added a big tent with German music from Enzian and a Saturday-night set by The Jello Shots.
