By Melanie Noto Senior Writer Quality food, homebrewed drafts and a quaint dining atmosphere make the Selin s Grove Brewing Co. a local gem. The hidden treasure is tucked away in the basement of the historic Governor s Mansion in downtown Selinsgrove. From the N. Market Street sidewalk, venture down the stairs to discover an adorable beer garden and the side door to a wonderful restaurant. Inside, the d cor reflects the era of the building, which has been standing since 1816. There are fireplaces and candles burning, copper pots hanging on stone walls and antique looking wooden furniture.
Booths are old church pews with wooden crosses on the side.
With a Susquehanna pennant hanging next to a patchwork quilt, this small place caters to both the antique-lover as well as the university crowd. The background dinner music, featuring Dave Matthews, Blues Traveler and Counting Crowes, transformed the restaurant from a museum to a hip dining scene. Another popular feature is the quality beverages brewed on the premises. From homemade root beer to the strong Stealth Triple beer, this place has something on tap for everyone. However, the premises are restricted to the 21 and over crowd.
