Salads so big we had left overs which is not a bad thing. And tasted really good. On the left a taco salad and on right a cheft salad with a soft buttery Bread Stick.
First time i had been there in many years. Food was awesome and they had adequate number of staff. Great experience.

This is simply a comfortable small town cafe. Limited but home cooked menu.
I don't think it was the best breakfast in 43 miles or whatever the billboard said...the service was pretty slow but I only saw one waitress and we were there on a Monday morning around 10. It was somewhat busy but not packed. The food was adequate but again, nothing special. My partner ordered scrambled eggs but got like an egg omelet??? See picture with pancakes.
Good home style cooking. Great breakfasts and delicious coffee cake.
My friend ordered the Cookee Skillet for $14 and it seemed like a kind of small portion for the price. Plus they forgot his toast and made another trip.I ordered the Reuben Sandwich and french fries. Their french fries are homemade but fried from a raw state. Not only were they made incorrectly but they were inedibly greasy, and didn't arrive with my food.Despite the fact that we were here at a slow period (there were two other tables and one left before ordering) our waitress was not around.Would not recommend, will not be returning
The breakfast wasn't anything to write home about. I prefer right up the street. The waitress wasn't attentive at all. Was really excited to try and turned out pretty disappointed.
They cheerfully accommodated our group. The service was excellent and the food delicious.
We were extremely disappointed with our dining experience at The Sawmill Inn. The place was filthy with ants on the table and floor next to us. The service was not good either. The server never checked back, never refilled our drinks, nor took any of our plates when done. She basically dropped the check/ticket and never even said thank you or have a good day. Our daughter said let’s leave right as we sat down and I wish we had left. However, I will say, best streusel coffee cake I have ever had, so if you order that to go, you will be golden.

Stopped here for lunch while we passed through town. The decor is very homey with a vintage feeling. The service was fast and friendly and the food came out quick and was very fresh. I had the mushroom Swiss burger and my wife had the bacon amercan cheese burger. Both burgers were delicious. My wife made a comment about how the bacon was perfectly cooked. The fries were also amazing. You can tell that they were cut from fresh potatoes in house. We are glad we stopped for lunch and will be back as soon as possible.
Love this place! Great food, great prices. Always stop here at least once when we're in Brainerd.
The meal was good but it could be fast and not half hour ti get the meal
Great food Been there many times and always good
My wife and I had never been here before, so we stopped for breakfast. We were quickly met by our waitress who showed us to our table. She left us with menus and filled our cups with steaming coffee. The interior was very interesting, especially the Saw Mill blade art. I'll have to admit the service was a little slow but our cups were kept full. My wife ordered the Wild Rice & Mushroom omelet with Cinnamon Streusel coffee cake and I had the Bacon N Cheddar Omelet with Marbled Rye toast. As we enjoyed the coffee we watched the passing traffic and listened to customers having great morning. When our meal arrived it was hot & tasty and smelled wonderful. I very much enjoyed my omelet as there was a lot of bacon in every bite. The Sawmill is what all small diners should aspire to be. Great service and great food.
