About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Neighborhood gem
This restaurant housed in a former bank building in the heart of downtown Tipp City offers quality dining in a small-town setting. The decor is warm and welcoming and is a delight for the senses. The fireplace creates a cozy atmosphere while the full bar allows patrons a relaxing stop while awaiting a fabulous meal. The inviting atmosphere encourages relaxed conversation. You may be surprised to find that a restaurant in such a small town has some rather sophisticated choices on the menu alongside your more normal fare, with entrees such as ostrich being offered. If you are looking for a decadent dessert, look no further than the butter-drenched English Tea Cake! An easy drive from all points in the Dayton area, words cannot do it justice. A visit is a must and will be the first of many.

    Another wonderful dinner experience from Coldwater! Both the salmon and the pasta were delicious and Kelly’s service was five star as usual! We so appreciate how welcoming and accommodating she is.

    They have the ‘pay at the table’ which in my opinion is always awkward with the server kind of looming over you as your entering your tip info, but apart from that everything was very good.

    food is excellent and flavorful. I have dietary restrictions, primarily sodium and sugar, and there are no healthy choices on the menu. The sauces and accompaniments are very tasty, but also salty and often sweet. I can't dine there as often as I'd like. I'd like to see the kitchen turn their talents to also crafting some "healthy" items to also add to the current excellent menu.

    Amazing food in a beautiful environment. It's also easy to have a conversation because it's not noisy. I love the decor.
