News Business strong since Lager House move to Commercial Hotel Jeff Heuchert aismin If a steady flow of patrons in recent weeks is, any indica- tion, Donna Ellis' decision to move her restaurant - The Lager House Pub and Grill - to the other end of Seaforth's Main Street, was a good one. "I think people were anx- ious for us to re -open and people can find us easier now," says Ellis, who owns what is now called The Lager House Inn and Grill. Ellis decided to pack up and ship down the street when her lease ran out at the old location, which was near the corner of Goderich and Main Streets. To her, although a signifi- cant amount of money had to be shelled out for renovations at the new location, what was once the Commercial Hotel, the decision was a relatively easy one. "We have made so many friends and our clientele has risen. I wanted a bigger place so we can hold wedding, retirement, birthday and anniversary parties," she says. At their old location, which she operated from for four years, Ellis says they could hold a maximum of 84 people. At their new location, their maximum has risen to 234, not including the seating an outdoor patio will provide. The square footage has jumped from 1,000 at the old location to 7,000 at the new. "Our games room is actually larger than the old Lager House," she says. "I'm going to be able to have bands, dinner and comedy theatre - something for every- one." Ellis says the. building had to have extensive work done on the inside before opening, such as replacing the ceilings, bathrooms and "just getting it up to code." The work was completed in 10 weeks, which Ellis says would have never happened without the help from mem- bers in the community who donated their time and. efforts. Ellis has made some slight changes since changing loca- tions. She now offers a Sunday brunch the last week- end each month, more spe- cials, new items on the menu and quicker service. "We've become faster. But our stuff is still fresh. We're still taking our time," she says. Ellis has also increased staff from eight to 15, and expects she'll have to hire more in the near•future, Business has been strong since re -opening, even though the Lager House has not yet obtained their liquor licence, which should be on its way within the next five weeks. "I thank everyone for their support. It's been phenome- nal. I don't know how to thank them," she says.
