What Makes Our Restaurant Different?

First constructed in 1714 by John Dyer, Water Wheel Tavern is a restaurant engulfed in a rich and complex history. When it was originally built, the tavern was utilized as a grist mill, followed by being converted into a post office and a general store. Only after the repeal of prohibition in 1933 was the building transformed into the tavern the locals have come to know and love today

Although in recent years, the restaurant has undergone several renovations and updates, it still maintains its original chic charm and character in addition to beloved food options. If you're looking for a quick lunch, upscale indoor dining, or if you're seeking some of the best food Doylestown has to offer, the Water Wheel Tavern is the place to be in the 18901.
