A Slice of Lockport History: The Volz Building
Our story begins in the Volz Building, a historic Lockport landmark that lay dormant for years after a devastating fire scarred its interior. However, in 2015, thanks to the unwavering dedication of the local community, this landmark was meticulously restored and transformed into a cherished family restaurant, reminiscent of a classic 1920s speakeasy bar. Embers Tap House now stands as a tribute to Lockport's rich heritage, offering a variety of charming event spaces suitable for your special day.
