Johansson’s Dining House

Written By Jack Perdue
 

Johansson’s Dining House was an English-style tavern with a historic ambiance. They brew beer onsite with a rotating selection of seasonal and house brews, including an IPA, amber, blond ale, and specialty seasonals like German Alt and Belgian Wit. Known for proper serving temperatures and quality, the brewery pairs well with its pub-style menu featuring seafood and American fare. The venue features multiple dining rooms, a cozy bar atmosphere, and an active taproom. They featured an in-house microbrewery.

“Today is our final day, please stop in and see us!” (June 7, 2026). After more than three decades in downtown Westminster, Johansson’s Dining House closed its doors, with a new group taking over in the later portion of 2026. Plans call for the downstairs portion to become The Corner Ledger, while 1623 Brewing will operate the upstairs portion and plans to brew beer on site.
