Their winter hours are 10am to 6pm Wednesday through Sunday.

The 1856 building has nearly always been a place that serves tasty treats to the community of Wilton.

The pressed-tin ceiling is original, as is the antique phonograph in the corner and displays full of Thelma Nopoulos' hand-lettered menus.
