Dine in Style
At Mill River Resort, we take pride in highlighting the simple pleasures found on the Island’s Western Cape. Embodied by the pairing of live edge timber slabs with elegant clean lines, contemporary décor compliments rustic style at Callahan's Restaurant & Bar. Infinite windows fill the space with natural light, creating a memorable atmosphere in which one can enjoy fine food and great company. Sunrise or sunset, Callaghan’s offers unobstructed views and outdoor seating on our seasonal deck.
Overlooking the manicured greens and natural treeline of Mill River Golf Course and grounds, our spacious deck provides a perfect opportunity to take in the beauty of the Island. Enjoy a quiet morning coffee, recoup after a round of golf, or raise a pint of local craft brew after a day enjoying Mill River Resort’s endless amenities - Callaghan’s has you covered!
What’s in a name you ask?
At Mill River Resort, we believe in family and the strength in our heritage. Our owner Don McDougall is a proud descendant of a long line of Islanders and you needn’t look far to see how deep his roots run. Callaghan’s Restaurant & Bar and each of our Meeting Spaces have been named after ancestors and family, a legacy of Irish settlers that dates back to the 1840s.
Fidus et Audax (Loyal & Brave)
William E. Callaghan and his wife Ellen (Pendergast) were among early Irish settlers to Prince Edward Island. They made their home in Ebbsfleet, along the Island’s westernmost cape on the Northumberland Strait. William E. and Ellen homesteaded, living from the land as their family grew to include seven children: William Patrick, James, Peter, Mary Ann, Anna Jane, John Andrew & Alice Maude who were known as “The Seven Branches”.
The seven Callaghan children each went on to have a large family of their own marrying into the Doyle, Smith, Hogan, Clohossey, Shea, Wallace and Roberts families.
Island history runs deep in this family of farmers and lighthouse keepers, even today many descendants still reside in Prince County. The Callaghan family roots are proudly honoured at the resort by using the family namesakes throughout property.
