If you’re looking for a nice dinner, with wonderful food and unique atmosphere in the heart of downtown this is your place. The Boiler Room Restaurant is called that because the space was the boiler room providing heat for the 120 year old Bemis Bag Building. The steal beams and brick offer a romantic state of decay and weather that provides a vibe you can’t find anywhere else. The food is amazing and showcases the talents of local growers and the finest of their harvest.
