Laurel Villa reopens

MILFORD, PA — The Laurel Villa Country Inn & Restaurant, a Milford tradition since 1876, has returned under its previous ownership. Three years ago innkeeper Janice Halsted and Chef Carl Muhlhauser turned the Laurel Villa over to new owner Ken Pisciotta, who re-named it the River Rock Inn, but it closed last winter.

“We never expected to be back in business,” said Halsted, “but the Laurel Villa has been part of the Milford dining scene for over a century, and we wanted it to continue.” Through the winter and spring the couple has been busy giving the historic inn a new look. Chef Carl’s new menu features customer favorites from his former menu, including schnitzel and soft shell crab, plus some popular items from the River Rock menu including mushroom bisque and a generous selection of new appetizers and entrees created especially for the re-opening. The inn also has 10 guest rooms available for nightly rental.

The Laurel Villa is located at Second and Ann streets. Email info@laurelvilla.com or call 570/296-9940.
