The recently renovated White Horse Inn is now open for business. The legendary spot in Metamora has served as a stop for stagecoaches and trains, a hotel, a brothel, an Underground Railroad stop, and, most recently and once again, a restaurant. Purchased by local restaurateurs in 2013 and undergoing a massive renovation, the multiple-story, white clapboard building, which was built in 1850, has been lovingly refurbished to feel similar to an 1800s establishment, but with practical updates. The menu features All-American comfort food with house made soups, sandwiches and entrees for any budget. Casual, but elegant dining is family friendly and can accommodate guests looking for everything from vegetarian to gluten free to wild game selections. The 2nd floor is great for large groups and private parties while the first floor features a large stone fireplace and hearth that is perfect for visiting with friends on a cold winter day.

Throwing it back to 1989—when one of our former chefs shared his bouillabaisse recipe in The Flint Journal. 📰🍲 A little slice of White Horse Inn culinary history, straight from the archives. Classic, comforting, and definitely a labor of love.

Is anyone feeling ambitious enough to give this recipe a try?

Fall Meet at the White Horse Inn, 1968. Huntsman Tom Marshall leading the way through Metamora — hounds in stride, riders mounted, and the White Horse standing watch just as it does today. Some traditions fade. Others ride on.

As regular guests of The White Horse Inn, Alexis and her husband knew exactly where they wanted to capture a few moments from their wedding day. We absolutely love seeing our historic building through their wedding photos and knowing it holds a special place in their story.

Wishing the newlyweds a lifetime of happiness and many more visits to The White Horse Inn!
