“We were so glad to find this place in the Snowcreek resort (inside the athletic club) while on vacation in Mammoth! Our family - including grandparents and young kids - all enjoyed breakfast, lunch, and dinner here on several occasions. Each meal was delicious and also exceptionally healthy, satiating, and of high quality - hard to find in restaurant food. The prices were very reasonable for the area and superb quality of ingredients. We loved walking over from our condo in the resort for meals or just one of their delicious iced espressos. The owners and their staff are all super friendly... it felt more like going over to a friend's place for a delicious homecooked meal instead of your every-day restaurant. the atmosphere was welcoming and had space for our 5 year old to let loose and play. Worth the drive if you're not near the resort as well. We will be back on our next trip to the area for sure!“

“Best place to eat at Mammoth. Delicious food. Best sauces and side dishes. Very friendly owner Matt Toomey and all stuff. Please make your breakfast back with coconut pancakes and smocked trout bagel! We're missing it so much!“

“Honestly that was a good sandwich. Grilled patties, caramelized onions, Pastrami. It’s rich and balanced. Fries were good too. Crispy and well seasoned. Thick cuts. But 23$ for that sandwich is insane. Probably will go back to starving on ski days.“

“Great beers 🍻 and great staff, atmosphere is excellent 👍🏻 cheers 🍻“

“Delicious coffee!!! We will be back!!!“

“It started with an amazing cheese plate in the lobby area accompanied by live music. We moved to a lake view table in the dining area and continued with a beet and date dish that stole the show. Service was top notch, main courses were fantastic and dessert was perfect. Highly recommend the experience.“

“This is a reslly cute lodge. The rooms are really nice, spacious. Good air-conditioning as it can be hot in the summers. The couple whorun the lodge are so nice. highly recommend this place!“

“FREE! Really like parking here and using it as "a home base" for our ski day. Small lot fills quickly, but you can drop off skiers close to the lifts and find ample parking along side of road. We bring a picnic lunch and usually manage to get a closer spot at lunchtime. The Mill Cafe has decent food choices, too.“

“Excellent service and amazing dinner . Mahi Mahi was delicious and our server was super nice and friendly . Highly recommended.“

“Great food Nice people,you need to eat there it gifs you a smille“

“If you're reading this, don't tell.anyone about this great.gastropub. It is crowded enough already. Send them to the bar at Slocums instead 😜;-)“

“The Mill is our go-to for a midday break from the slopes. The bartenders here are fantastic – friendly, attentive, and always make us feel welcome.
The pulled pork and tri-tip sandwich is absolutely delicious. Perfectly seasoned, tender, and just what you need to refuel before heading back out. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it the ideal spot to recharge.
We stop here every time we're at Mammoth, and it never disappoints. Highly recommend!“

“Outstanding! The spirits, beer, food, service, and ambiance were all outstanding. Bought a bottle of their single malt and tequila to take home. Actually considering going back for supper tonight.“

“This restaurant is located on the second floor inside Monmouth Mountain In, which makes is convenient and one of very few dining options in the area. Restaurant is beautiful, well maintained and offers plenty of seating. Service is good and staff is very friendly. Food, however, could be better considering a price tag of $32-$48 per main dish. Both the salmon and fingerling potatoes were very greasy; short rib fries appetizer is just chunks of meat on top of fries with a bit of marinated onions of squirts of mayo; rosemary airline chicken breast is tiny and dry and mashed potatoes don’t have much flavor at all.“

“Bloody Marys are masterfully crafted, perfectly peppery, and just the right amount of spiciness. The Mill is the perfect on mountain spot to grab a drink and hang out in a lounge chair. I got an order of the chili cheese fries and was pleasantly surprised!While there's not a lot of indoor seating, there's plenty of outdoor hightops by the bar that open up quickly as well as patio tables and lounge chairs closer to the lifts.“

“The chicken pot pie empanadas were a unique, creative appetizer. We all liked them very much. The meat dishes featured a good quality meat. If you're a meat eater, stick with meat dishes such as beef stroganoff, beef bourginon or filet. They are your best bet. The airline chicken crashed on the landing as it was exceedingly dry. Out of the 5 dishes we ordered, 4 were hits and one was a flop, so I'd say it was a hit overall. Good wine list. Nice servers. Lively bar.“

“Great food and really good service. Friendly staff! We love the upstairs dining room, well-stocked bar and beautiful views. It’s the only place we go out to eat when we are in town. The mud pie is to die for!“

“I may be biased for having hiked in the wilderness for days before, but oh boy they make the best cheeseburger I’ve had in my life!

Wendy the cashier (“like Peter Pan and hamburgers” as she introduces herself) is a national treasure. Her attentiveness and impeccable humor made our experience thoroughly enjoyable. She had warmly welcomed us at breakfast when we stayed here last year, and we were so glad to enjoy her hospitality this time around too.

All the staff we interacted with were super friendly and helpful. Make sure to get in line early in the summer before it gets long; and when the line does get long, more hikers should show the staff the patience and respect they deserve.“
