I went here on Halloween to enjoy a night out with friends, only to be greeted by rude staff who went out of their way to make unnecessary and disrespectful comments. Instead of embracing the fun, inclusive spirit of Halloween, they chose to be judgmental and unprofessional. I was expecting a night of fun, but the staff’s immature and nasty attitude completely ruined the experience. If you’re looking for a place that actually respects its customers and values a good vibe, save your time and money and go anywhere but here. This was hands-down the worst bar experience I’ve ever had. Never again.
What a treasure! This iconic spot has maintained the charm of its eclectic design, featuring a stunning bar on the lower level while also boasting a trendy upstairs bar that adds to its appeal.

Went out and celebrated all of my friends birthday month this past Sunday, we decided to go Dowtown for a beer and the only place open at 10:30pm was Millers. We went to the upstairs bar by the time I arrived bartender has served my friend glasses of water. When I asked them what they wanted to drink I stood by the bartender, she wasn’t busy at all however, she was walking up and down her bar and I felt ignored, I patiently kept waiting I even had time to go say hi to a different friend that was sitting at the bar when I saw an opportunity where bartender could clearly see me, I moved in front of her and she still didn’t look at me, when she finally did she asked what did I want I asked her for 2 ciders and a whiskey sour, she asked what king of whiskey and ID’s. I asked my friends for their ID and handed them to the bartender, all 3 of them. She immediately noticed 2 of the IDs were for tourist, the other one VA ID. She declared ABC did not allowed out of country ID, I proceeded and pulled out my work permit ID and insisted she could not accept that either bc it wasn’t an USA ID; keep in my work permits say USA all across the top in bold big letters word for word. I removed both foreign IDs and just asked for my friends whiskey sour, this is where it got extremely UGLY!! She said the issue was that if neither my friend and I had a USA valid ID I WAS NOT ALLOWED TO BE IN THE TOP BAR AREA, that I had to leave. I was shock, in disbelief and extremely hurt to the point that she belittle me and made me feel inhuman. I wanted to hurt this lady, however I calm myself down and picked up a glass of beer that was on the counter and spilled it on her counter as I walked myself out without any force. She got upset that I made that move, which I could of just pour it on her, however, I did not. I picked the counter to take my anger out on her. As I was going down the stairs she screamed to the top of her long that I was BANNED FOR LIFE FROM MILLER AND SHE WAS GOING TO CALL THE COPS, I told her go ahead called them and she yelled out when I’m almost at the door to her customers to look out after her bar and walked downstairs, proceeded to call the cops right outside downtown mall, nowhere in millers property and lied to the cops that she had a customer and her husband inside miller that that did not want to leave the premises. I was already out of millers and not only that the man was not my husband and she never explained as too why this all had escalated. I was highly upset and did not wait for the cops to arrive which I regret because she is nobody to make someone feel little only bc she’s not educated enough to know what a work permit is in the USA and where it comes from. I had never witness any type of disgusting behavior as to separating me and my other friends from my group of American friends.
I was told to leave before my actions escalated; and thank you for reporting the videos, I did not want to miss out on video footage before it was too late and the truth come to light.

The other night I visited Millers with friends and we experienced extreme discrimination. The server refused to take the orders of my friends, stating she could not accept their forms of ID - though they were legally able to be used (US issued license, permanent resident card, and employment authroization cards - all updated and all displaying date of birth - everyone in the party was above the age of 21). When she was asked about her decision not to serve them, she then told them that they must sit downstairs (away from the rest of our party, and where they still would not be served).
When we questioned the legality of her actions, asking why the other forms of ID were not being accepted, she then told them to leave. We vocalized or disappointment and how we felt the situation might be discriminatory, the two patrons were told to leave, which they did without force. she then called the police and stated that they would not leave the establishment. At the point that she called the police, both friends were outside and not on the property.

Loved coming here and I’m not from C-ville, just visiting a couple of friends. The food was good, I had the Pimento BLT with fries and a iced chai latte, the service was great along with the atmosphere. Walking in I definitely smelled coffee and felt a good, welcoming vibe. I’ll definitely have to come back again!

Bartender on the third floor stopped serving for no reason. Had a girls reunion and she treated us with disrespect. Do not go here, bad vibes and no fun.

Went here with my friends and left so disappointed. We were on the third floor and the bartender kept giving us dirty looks. We took one round of shots and she immediately cut us off. (This was our first stop of the night) when we asked why no reason was given. Made us feel very uncomfortable and we left immediately.
