Chandler’s opened it’s doors in December of 1999 behind the historical Symons General Store building. It’s a cozy place with only 50 seats in the main dining room & 10 seats at the bar. When real estate is too tough to find - it’s standing room only! For a change of scenery, guests can enjoy dining in the wine cellar where they are surrounded by the 4,000 bottle collection that serves both the restaurant and Symons General Store. In the warmer months, guests can choose to dine outside, on Chandler’s brick courtyard.

    WE enjoyed a table for two in the wine room on Thanksgiving Day 2024. The service was great and the foods selection was not your typical turkey and dressing (however that was a special of the the day) Chandlers is a bit pricey, so be prepared for that. The food is very good, well done by the staff. The squash soup is really good, very different.

    Food is always top notch but the dish I had yesterday for brunch had sliced sausage that was tough and way over cooked.

    Our meal was fantastic, but what truly elevated the experience was Dawn's exceptional service. She was attentive and friendly, making our evening truly special. If you're planning a visit, ask for Dawn – you won't be disappointed!
