Manitobans will once again be able to dine on tea and scones while taking in history — the tea room at the Captain Kennedy House is reopening.
Environment and Climate Change Minister Mike Moyes said in a statement on Thursday the Heritage Tea Room is reopening after a $1.4-million restoration of the historic building on the Red River south of Lockport.
The stone house, a provincial heritage building, was built for Kennedy, an Arctic explorer, Métis community leader, and Hudson’s Bay Company employee, in 1866.
It closed because of structural problems in 2015.
