The Merchant

At The Merchant, we make almost all our fare from scratch. The building itself is a big space that served for more than a century as a leather goods store. We've brought in high-top tables near the windows ... a 40-foot bar on one side of the room, and more formal dining spots on the opposite side. We have a semi-private dining room in back, and another dining room downstairs.

For our menu, we cure and smoke all the meat in house. Our burger is top-notch, as are other dishes like roast chicken, dayboat scallops and “rustic” desserts. The Merchant serves salads, sandwiches ($10-$15), and more for the lunch rush. And for dinner, we are a full-service brasserie (with most entrees ranging from $22-$26).

The bar has 36 beers on tap, many of them locally brewed, plus a full selection of craft cocktails to serve our patrons, especially the after-work crowd. Our raw bar is open from 11 am till closing, part of a late-night menu that is served each night(until midnight or 1am).
