OUR HISTORY
Nestled in the heart of Grafton, Ontario, the Grafton Village Inn is a charming piece of the village’s rich history. Originally built in 1832 to replace a log structure, the building was first known as Grover’s Tavern, after its founder, John Grover. The village itself was named after the tavern and in 1832, when Grover sold the tavern to Edward Pepper, it became known as Pepper’s Tavern. It was here that the name "Grafton" was officially adopted, in honour of Grover's hometown of Grafton, Massachusetts.
