The Dominion House is the oldest remaining continuously run tavern in the Border Region. From its inception, when the stagecoach ran between Windsor and Amherstburg, it has served local residents and numerous travellers. When Frederick Neil published “The Township of Sandwich Past and Present in 1909″, the Dominion House, owned by John McCarthy, had been operating at its present location for 26 years; 118 years later, it operates in the same building and location, having survived fifteen or sixteen different innkeepers.
