MIAMISBURG — The Chimneys Inn restaurant has closed, but will continue its catering business and will have special events in the facility at 67 S. Main St. in downtown Miamisburg, according to chef-owner Matthew Hayden.

Hayden, who also is co-owner with several family members of the Pourhaus restaurant and bar at 536 Miamisburg-Centerville Road, said he closed The Chimneys Inn to spend more time on his catering business and other business ventures, and with his family.

"We put a lot of thought into our decision," Hayden said. The restaurant in downtown Miamisburg "had slow growth," but it "represented most of my expense but the least amount of revenue" and was time-consuming, he said.

The Chimney's Inn, located in a spot that once housed TW's Restaurant, opened five years ago, closed nine months later, then reopened in September 2006. It has hosted musical acts and other special events, and was open for dinner Thursdays through Saturdays, featuring a Cajun and southern-inspired menu.
