Water Street Inn - Stillwater, MN

The historic Water Street Inn is a distinctive hotel located in Stillwater, Minnesota and overlooks the St. Croix River. Granicrete countertops can be viewed within three locatations within the Inn: Charlie's Irish Pub and Restaurant, Papa's Rooftop Bar, and the hotel's lobby. Granicrete Minnesota was selected for this project due to the highly customization of our product.

Charlie's Irish Pub and Restaurant

The historic Charlie's Irish Pub and Restaurant received a facelife when the new horsehoe bar and drip plate was installed. This countertop was the perfect fit both literally and metaphorically. Physically, it fit the space perfectly and was the largest horseshoe countertop created without seams. Metaphorically, Granicrete's NSF certification and ability to heat up to 500° fulfilled the needs of the Pub.

Papa's Rooftop Bar

The new Papa's Rooftop Bar features numerous historic Stillwater and Waterstreet Inn photo inlaid into the countertops. Since the counter is on the roof, Granicrete's poreless surface is able to withstand the elements.

Water Street Inn Lobby

Granicrete countertops can be found in two locations in the Water Street Inn's lobby. The first is the check-in desk, which boldly greets new guests with its swirled kelly green color that also features a vibrant green inlay. On the other side of the room, another Granicrete countertop is used for the coffee bar.
