The Historic Clifton Mill is a popular destination, especially during the holidays. The restaurant offers delicious meals, friendly service, and a unique atmosphere. Vegetarian options include cornmeal pancakes, skillets, and wild mushroom omelets. The historic grist mill overlooks the scenic Clifton Gorge and features a world-class light display at Christmas. It's a wheelchair-accessible spot for a day trip from nearby cities.
Visitors praise the interesting history and attentive staff. The meals are well-liked, with customers enjoying a variety of dishes. The large pancakes and skillets are especially popular, with some guests noting how huge the portions are and how tasty the food is. The staff is friendly and keeps coffee cups filled. Many appreciate the quick service, with some saying they only wait a few minutes for their food, and leftovers are common for big breakfasts like the Big Breakfast, which is only $30 and feeds five people. The setting, including the covered bridge and the view from the mill, is very picturesque, and the water flowing through the stream adds to the soothing atmosphere.
During Christmas, the restaurant transforms with an extraordinary display of lights and other wonders, making it a complete experience. Guests can tour the mill, buy old-time candy, and enjoy the impressive light display. The gift shop offers items like pancake mix to take home. Overall, visitors find the place charming and recommend stopping by if in the area, enjoying both the historic site and the delicious food.
