The atmosphere is spacious and pleasant and has the advantage of being one of the few paces open later in the town. A small... selection of sandwiches and treats are available Baristas are usually friendly although service tends to be slow Drinks arenot expertly made but certainly drinkable For aprox 3 times in a row drink orders have been mixed up, which having been abarista in high end coffee shops, I get it, things are busy it happens, smile to the customer and remake it, your tip jar willshow peoples appreciation. The last one was a Flat white being turned into a 'Large Flat white' which is simply a latte, a flatwhite requiring a specific milk/espresso ratio and 'silked' milk, it is traditionally a 5 - 6 oz drink and is made to emphasizethe taste of the espresso. The last time I simply took the drinks back, apologized for the hassle, to which the baristagrimaced, poured the poorly steamed drinks into smaller cups waited a minute as if they remade them and re-served them. Weleft the drinks on the table and decided the cafe could use some constructive comments to an otherwise decent cafe. I wouldrecommend proper training to bring staff up to modern standards, which would speed up the long wait times and eliminateconfusion on how to actually make the drinks that are ordered Read more

Their hot drinks are good, but not the frappe. Too iced, that when you drink it, lots of iced is left like a slurpee... we asked... for a mug to reduce waste and we will be drinking inside, but they gave us a reusable cup. Read more

This has got to be one of the best coffee shops in town. The people are so personable and take the time to learn your name. The... drinks, breakfast sandwiches, and treats are delicious! You seriously cannot go wrong with any meal, worth the wait. The decoris so hygge, his wife does all the decor! I may need her to design my home she has great taste! We love this place, and Dionawesome, so is his daughter! I?m not sure how to spell her name, Tatiana I believe! Oh and Elena is a total gem and will alwaysmake you feel special. Read more

Overall: Independent coffee shop with friendly staff, would return. The Mill Coffee shop is an independent coffee shop, on par... with others we?ve been to. The coffee was good (with the milk froth aesthetics that add a little touch), the granola bars weretasty, and the breakfast sandwich was better than Starbucks. We also really appreciated the change table in the bathroom! Read more

A cozy pleasant atmosphere makes this a nice spot to stop for a beverage and light foods such as muffins, scones and sandwiches.... There are good safety measures in place with tables spread apart and sanitizing practices between customers. You can choosebetween a light or dark roast for lattes and they have specialty teas and hot chocolate. Masks are required in store except whenseated. The store does steady business serving take out customers as well as those staying in. The staff are very friendly aswell making this a business we are happy to support. Read more
