Intimate & full of character, Cafe Mir is worth any trip distance. We had the Popes 2nd favorite lasagna and Joe Thighsman chicken. Smaller plates but a gastro experience you won't soon forget.
Always such an amazing time here! I’m telling you this place has wonderful vegetarian and vegan options, great service and very prompt, friendly, affordable and the vibe and atmosphere is absolutely fantastic. I will always come back and recommend! One thing I will say is you will need a reservation to eat here the majority of the time especially if the outdoor dining isn’t available, they have made accommodations but we also have been turned down. But hey it’s popular!!Vegetarian options: Always has vegetarian appetizers, entrees and dessertsDietary restrictions: Vegan options and gluten freeParking: It’s a small town they don’t have a parking lot but there is free street parking. But it can fill up but you maybe just have to walk a little bit but not alwaysKid-friendliness: Very kid friendly
I have never had a bad meal at Cafe Mir. Service has always been Excellent & Menli is my favorite she is so kind to everyone.I recommend this restaurant to anyone I know passing through the area. The prices are reasonable if you consider the quality of the food & the flavor!!Also, you will have leftovers as the food is very filling.

My wife and I drove two hours to experience Cafe Mir. It is a gem hidden in a small, but charming, town. The atmosphere was excellent, as was the staff. We enjoyed an incredible dinner, with their organic approach and creative combinations. The Heirloom tomato salad was our favorite; made from fresh local grown ingredients. The lamb sausage pizza was a close second. We enjoyed the duck confit that was prepared perfectly. The portions were large enough to be shared by the two of us. We will most definitely be making the drive again!
Our all-time favorite restaurant!
