This morning, a friend and I went to have coffee here. Neither one of us had been here in many years. It was 10 AM and there was no one there. We didn’t know what to do so we walked to the back of the restaurant and there were two tables filled; that was it. We sat down.The server, Suzanne, drops two menus off at our table and when she comes back she says “ What can I get you”? We informed her we were only having coffee. She says loudly, “You can’t just have coffee here. You need to order food”. We said we didn’t want to eat, and this woman lost it! She blew a gasket. She told us we could go outside and we said it was too cool. Mind you, my friend is elderly, 80 years old, and it was a cool morning. She then said as loudly as she could that we should walk over to Lakeshore if we only wanted coffee. We left. We ended up going elsewhere and we spent $30 on coffee and a pastry, leaving a 25% tip. I would think that some business is better than no business, Suzanne. It was not as though it was a Saturday or Sunday morning, and people were waiting to be seated. There was no reason for you to become so irate.

7.4 💥. I stopped by for breakfast on a Saturday afternoon and was seated fast. The services was quick and friendly. The food here was amazing and cooked perfectly. The jam made in house was next level, I put it on everything. When in town check this place out for good eats. 💥 They also have pastries too.

Giving two stars instead of one because the barista is very nice. However, the coffee is extremely bitter, there’s no wifi, and there’s very little seating unless you’re eating in the restaurant. It’s also expensive, with a small regular latte costing $5.

Coffee Mill has never had great coffee, but the food is pretty good, and it's a nice place to go with the pup (dog friendly patio dining). I don't know what's happened in the past few months, but the service is just going downhill. Even the people who are usually good servers are just not up to par. I've taken to going down to Farley's for a great cup of coffee, though the service is also not great.

If you have not taken a trip to the Coffee Mill, you’re doing yourself a huge disservice.

Good place to eat when you desire the old traditional breakfast. My appreciation is that they will cook your breakfast just as requested without making you feel like your asking for more than requested.
