Historic Beginnings
Rooted in History, Standing with character
Constructed in 1900, the building that now houses Three Oak Steakhouse first served as Grollman’s Department Store—a bustling hub of commerce in Easton’s early downtown. It stood as a symbol of the city’s growth at the turn of the century.
A COMMUNITY LANDMARK
In the decades that followed, the property became home to a pharmacy owned by Frederick J. Thompson, a prominent local businessman who also lived at the nearby Townley House. This chapter added a layer of personal connection and service to the building’s legacy.
Rebirth Through Challenge
During early renovations to transform the space into a restaurant, a major collapse of the east-facing wall forced a complete rebuild. Rather than abandoning the project, the visionaries behind Three Oak saw the challenge as a chance to rebuild with purpose—and honor the building’s past.
Reclaimed wood, repurposed materials, and custom details throughout the space were crafted entirely onsite, bringing to life an aesthetic as unique as the stories behind its walls.
A Legacy Continued
Today, Three Oak brings people together in a space where history meets hospitality. With every meal, we honor the spirit of this building—its stories, its resilience, and the community that continues to shape it.
Our name pays homage to the oak tree—strong, grounded, and enduring.
The Meaning Behind the Name
The warm wishes and encouragement we received from the people of Easton helped us endure in the early days. Opening Three OAK—our third Easton restaurant—was only possible because of loyal guests like you. We’re grateful for your continued presence in our story.
