Old Orchard Inn

The Old Orchard Inn traces its story to a hunting lodge built around 1901. The location didn’t host its first restaurant until 1931, when a tearoom opened. It soon became an East Aurora landmark, known for its stone fireplaces, original cabinetry and rustic setting. Operated by the Romanello family since 1997 and sold to Brian Fischer in 2025, the inn nonetheless remains true to its roots. Guests favor Old Orchard Inn’s scratch-made American fare and the unhurried, classic service set on the restaurant’s pastoral grounds.
