About the iron kettle

The Iron Kettle Legacy

The Iron Kettle Landmark Restaurant was first established in 1947 as the Aurora Drive-In.  In 1960, owner Phil Milliron changed the name to the Iron Kettle and it has been known as such ever since.  The restaurant has always thrived, featuring home-cooked meals prepared in-house every day.   Unfortunately, circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic forced  closure of the business.  


Under new ownership since 2022, the Iron Kettle Landmark Restaurant continues its rich tradition of high-quality food prepared from scratch daily. 

Dine In / On-the-Go Take Out / DELIVERY

We welcome you to experience the unique warmth & quaint beauty of our two dining rooms.  Each room features their own fireplace and has been named after our children, Ella (age 13) and Alex (age 8).   From time-to-time, you will find Ella and Alex helping out!    


The coffee shop offers a cozy space to enjoy your meal and chat with some locals.
