Once the Erie Canal opened in 1822, only a few yards from the town center, Brighton became a popular tourist and trading destination. The canal became Rochester's chief commercial artery and connected manufacturers and farmers alike with bustling canal towns across New York.
The Brighton was opened to give weary travelers a home cooked meal and a warm bed on their journey. Officially abandoned in 1920, the old Erie Canal bed gave way to a railroad, a local subway and ultimately the 490 Expressway. Over the years, The Brighton has also survived many renovations and changes, but remains a place where Rochesterians still find good food at reasonable prices served in a warm and welcoming atmosphere. We hope you enjoy dining with us and visit often!
