There are a dozen and a half draft and another two dozen in cans and bottles ranging from $4 to $14. For example, there are only seven whites on offer, and living in the Finger Lakes, I would have liked to see a dry riesling instead of one of the three cChardonnays. ” I never respond because it’s a quick way to make one restaurateur friend and dozens of enemies.

The first Miller’s Ale House opened in 1988 in Jupiter, Florida, as a local place to be enjoyed by all walks of life. We are a sports-themed casual dining restaurant with a wide variety of entrees for a great value. He emphasized the larger selection of flatbreads, the introduction of an ‘Impossible’ burger option and other meat substitutes, and the roasted cauliflower as great options for diners to check out. The move did not happen upon City Centre completion and was further delayed due to COVID-19, finally opening its doors to the public at the beginning of Dec. 2021.

It came on toasted bread with the crusts removed and, because of the creamy nature of the ingredients, was a bit mushy. The bread, too, was just a tad greasy, but overall, I did like the sandwich. Their decision to not just remain downtown — but expand downtown — is great news for Ithacans and their guests. I’m grateful for their investment, and can’t wait to have another burger in their big, beautiful new space.

I once ordered the “Chicken Wings” ($18) from the “Smaller Plates” part of the menu. I think the cooks serve portions based on weight, trying to max up with about one pound. They were covered in a relatively light breaded crust and came with a few fresh carrot and celery sticks with a choice of blue cheese or ranch dip. I chose the blue cheese and was glad I did, as it had bits of cheese incorporated. If you order the wings, you’ll have a choice of about a half- dozen sauces.

It was a long process, with O’Leary having originally made inquiries with the new building owners soon after the corner was sold, working with Holt Architects and local contractors to make it happen. While the easy to spot sign has been on the new building now for much longer, owner John O’Leary says that the pandemic, supply chain issues, licensing delays and other factors delayed the opening of the new location. I have always enjoyed the food at tThe Ale House and find it a fun place to eat. I’ll look forward to eating here many more times in the near future. An email has been sent to with a link to confirm list signup.

Another important category of entreées is “Hand Stretched Pizzas” and the ones I’ve tried are terrific. “Artichoke hHeart” ($16) came with bits of fire- grilled artichoke hearts and red peppers with concentric rings of baby spinach. I can also recommend the “Garlic Shrimp Pie” ($17), which came with about two dozen baby shrimp strewn across the top along with bits of basil. I recently had the “Ale House Burger” ($17) because I like blue cheese and bacon. It came rare, as I ordered it, open faced on a large hunk of focaccia.
Ithaca Ale House: New Location, Same Great Burgers, Lots to Drink
There were two slices of fresh lettuce, two beautiful tomato slices, and four pickle chips on one half, with a plump burger, blue cheese, smothered onions and two crisscrossed bacon slices on the other. In the “Larger Plates” section of the menu, I’ve tried the “Sweater Weather Sandwich” ($15). It has a myriad of ingredients, including smoked mozzarella, kale bits, roasted pepper relish, garlic aioli, and bacon-onion marmalade.
I want to warn you that “garbage” sauce is a bit hot and I prefer any of the milder ones. Incidentally, the wings were more expensive than four of the “Larger Plate” offerings and could easily serve as a satisfying lunch. I once ordered the “Chicken Wing” ($18) from the “Smaller Plates” part of the menu. I think of the food offerings at tThe Ale House, as mostly comfort food, and I tend to prefer beer with comfort food and wine with more upscale offerings.
ITHACA, N.Y.—The Ithaca Ale House celebrated its official reopening with a ribbon-cutting ceremony Dec. 16, 2021. Members of downtown Ithaca were in attendance, including Gary Ferguson, executive director of the Downtown Ithaca Alliance (DIA), on behalf of Mayor Svante Myrick who could not attend. But now that it’s set, O’Leary says it’s been a “pinch me” moment to have this new space. The walls are adorned with tasteful photos of some of Ithaca's campus landmarks and unique wall art of waterways like the Finger Lakes and the Cayuga Inlet, giving it a nice bit of local flair. With our extremely comfortable atmosphere, we seem to see the same faces day after day enjoying themselves in our modern industrial décor.
In case you haven’t heard, the Ale House recently moved from “Rrestaurant Row” on Aurora Street to near the corner of State and Aurora Streets. This incarnation is about double the size, although, as with many restaurants these days, the menu offerings have been reduced. I think of the interior as minimalist industrial with track and pendant lighting. As for the food, the owner says that while they are still focused on making their burgers great, they’ve added more healthy and vegetarian options. They also welcomed a new chef, David Schaap from the New York City restaurant The Butcher’s Daughter, an all-vegetarian restaurant. His résumé includes running other restaurants in the city as well, including barbecue, giving him a diverse culinary background coming to Ithaca.
