Additional Details:
Old Joppa Grill and Sandwich shop is located in the historical Village of Elmwood, Mass. Originally called Joppa. The first house was built in 1662 by Thomas Whitman. In 1682 a tannery was started by Ensign Edward Mitchell who employed a tanner by the name of Simon, and as the Bible speaks of "Simon, a tanner from Joppa," the name Joppa was given to the village.
