NE meets MW...the restaurant??

Here's why impromptu roadtrips are so much fun...you never know exactly what you are going to find.


On Saturday, I spent the majority of the day in the car, driving all around Southwest Ohio as well as a tiny sliver of Indiana. We drove by the Pier 27 Beer Garden & Grill, just outside of Hamilton, Ohio, and I immediately asked my travel companion to turn around when I saw this building in the rearview mirror. Tip: Always bring a camera on roadtrips.

While we didn't have a chance to go into the restaurant (it was only 11:00 am), I did find the the Pier 27 website which makes me want to head back there as soon as I can. Apparently the owner is a native of Maine and his motto is "Northeast Meets Midwest". The restaurant is also billed as a taste of New England in Ross...according to a review in The Oxford Press.

Who knew that a taste of Maine is only 30 minutes away?
