Miller's Ale House Opens First Somerset County Location

WATCHUNG, NJ — Miller's Ale House has opened its first Somerset County location.

The new location opened Monday at 1664 Route 22 (at the corner of Route 22 and Terrill Road) in Watchung on the Scotch Plains border.

Watchung Mayor Keith Balla will host a ribbon cutting this Friday at 10 a.m. out front of the restaurant, weather permitting.

This is the restaurant chain's fifth New Jersey location. Other locations include Mt. Laurel, Paramus, Rockaway, and Woodbridge.

The 8,202-square-foot restaurant features Miller’s newest restaurant design with indoor and outdoor seating for 230-plus guests, more than 60 TVs, a Florida Room with garage-style exterior walls that can be raised in good weather, and more.

"Our new location in Watchung provides great visibility for the restaurant in the popular shopping and dining destination on U.S. Highway 22,” said Miller’s Ale House Chief Development Officer Ray Holden. “We have made a lot of Raving Fans in the Garden State since we opened our first Jersey restaurant in Mt. Laurel in 2012, and we look forward to bringing the brand to the state’s central region with our fifth Jersey location.”

The Miller’s Ale House menu offers more than 60 items including appetizers, soups, salads, sandwiches, burgers, flatbreads, pastas, steaks, seafood and entrees, plus daily lunch and dinner specials.

The first Miller’s Ale House opened in 1988, in Jupiter, Florida since then the sports-themed casual dining restaurant has opened 90-plus locations in 10 states.
