The Miller Tavern was one of the many 19th Century inns along Yonge Street in Toronto, Ontario.

Originally called the York Mills Hotel, the three storey building dates to the 1860s. A barn to house horses was located on the north side of the building. The hotel was popular for travellers looking for a drink.

The hotel was renamed The Jolly Miller after a local mill owner. It later catered to gamblers and was often raided.

The hotel was renovated and turned into a seafood restaurant and renamed with the current name.

  • It was a bit disreputable back in the day. In the mid-60's I was underage and young looking, but the Miller could almost always be relied on to turn a blind eye instead of carding me.
