Welcome to Metuchen's favorite destination for gourmet food and a traditional and historical atmosphere. There are indications that Metuchen Inn was in existence as early as 1843, but it may have been in existence even earlier. If this holds true, Andrew Jackson was the president and anti-abolitionist riots were going on in New York and Philadelphia. Just visualize the candle lit room, horses outside and customers conversing about the most incredible recent invention- the telegraph (1835). The Metuchen Inn is proud of its history and is committed to maintaining the unique ambiance that makes the restaurant stand out. The menu features something sure to impress every palate with notable selections that include the Grilled Breast of Chicken (on toasted brioche with fresh tomato, sliced red onion and basil mayonnaise finished with baby greens,) Grilled Filet Mignon (three onion marmalade with wild mushroom and herb potatoes hash,) Barbequed Pork Tenderloin (red potato mash with braised cabbage and red wine demi glace) and the Slow Poached Lobster (with cauliflower, curry puree and fresh herb oil.) Treat your family and friends to the elegance that only the Metuchen Inn can provide.
