The food is good, the tea is awful. I received a small pot without a cover and water warm enough to put my finger in to test. The tea, naturally, did not steep well, nor did it retain what warmth it had since the pot was uncovered. I admit to being on a campaign for tea as good as the coffee other folks receive. So often we get barely hot water with a tea bag, and no one ever comes around and offers us a second cup, or bottomless cups, like the coffee drinkers get. Maybe we get more water, but never another (free) tea bag and the weak tea that comes from re-using a teabag is deplorable. Not fair, especially since tea is far cheaper to buy and make when compared to coffee. read more

Food was delicious! Lobster omelette loaded with lobster. Skillet was a great combo. Large portions. Good hot fresh coffee! Service started out strong but got distracted. Also first coffee cup was dirty, they changed it quickly when asked. Homemade muffins were great too! read more

Every time I come here it gets better and better! The food is fresh and the staff is welcoming and hard working. Katelyn has been my server quite a few times and she is great at her job. The Mills really is one of the best breakfast/lunch restaurants on Cape Cod. read more

My only complaint is that the restaurant is tiny and there is often a wait to sit. When you do get a seat you are often bumping elbows with people next to you. However, the food is excellent and I recommend the corned beef hash. read more

Went in by the reviews thinking this was a good place. Took my friends here, what an embarrassment! Ordered the apple crisp French toast which still had uncooked batter in the toast which we told the waitress about, she took it without telling us whether she was bringing some back or not. We were just left wondering. Our friends ordered the salmon baguette. The eggs were runny and uncooked but the manager still argued that the eggs were fine. She still had us pay for the uneaten salmon! It's to my understanding customer satisfaction is key in the restaurant business and we left completely satisfied. I feel terrible for not leaving a tip, I've never done that before, but te waitresses not once stopped over to see if everything was okay. Because of that our friend had to use a spoon to eat his eggs and French toast. We were left thirsty. No one came to fill our waters, or ask if we wanted more coffee. It seemed like they were avoiding us but we weren't being difficult. I wil never recommend this place and never stepping foot in it ever again. If I could give it 0 stars, I would. read more

First I should start by saying my daughter and I have eaten here several times under the new ownership. My daughter has a peanut allergy and we are diligent in telling servers everywhere we eat. We have told each server at the mills each time we eat there. They acknowledge the allergy and my daughters usually gets a waffle or an egg dish. This time however was quite different. After ordering, the server came back and said we cannot guarantee anything is peanut-free and asked us if it's a real allergy. Trust me no one fakes a peanut allergy. I informed the server that we just ate here two weeks ago and have been here many times over the last year and this is the first time anyone has approached us and told us they couldn't guarantee my daughters safety. She then went and brought the chef/owner over. This is where it went south very quickly. He was rude and condescending and brought my daughter to tears. He said listen sweetheart I don't want you to die or have to use your EpiPen here. I use peanuts all over my kitchen. I let him know that we just ate hear and he said no one would serve us under his watch which is completely untrue as we've eaten here no less than six times since he's owned the restaurant. I have no issue with a restaurant telling me that there may be an issue however his over-the-top you may die comments and I don't want to see you use the EpiPen in my restaurant in front of all of the customers brought my daughter to tears. And in 16 years with this allergy we have never once had to leave a restaurant due to someone telling us they could not manage her peanut allergy. In this day and age where people have allergies to have a chef/owner talk to a customer this way is completely unacceptable and over-the-top. We left and went down the street to Percy's where they have no issue serving my daughter. We will never go back to the mills because I've never been talked to that way by anyone. UPDATE: I appreciate the owners response given the fact that his first angry posted response demonstrated my point. I am glad to see he realized that. read more

Tried the Mills for the first time today and will DEFINITELY be returning! The inside of the restaurant was cute, bright, and cozy, and the staff were all very friendly. It's a very small place, so be prepared to wait if you visit during a busy time - but it's worth it! My husband had The Whole Farm, which is kind of a breakfast sampler with eggs, pancakes, etc., and he enjoyed it. But MY breakfast was the clear winner of the meal. I'm from the South so I had to try the Southern Jumbo Biscuit and Sausage Gravy from the specials menu. Holy crap, y'all, this was LEGIT. A huge, fluffy yet dense, perfect biscuit with the sausage gravy I never knew my life was missing. We're talking, like, 90% sausage, 10% gravy. I cannot possibly overstate the amazing deliciousness of this dish. I literally cannot wait to go back and order the exact same dish for as long as it's on the menu. I have no idea what their lunch food is like but if this biscuit is any indication, then it's probably effing delightful. read more

1.) coffee was very good (so many breakfast places really fail in this category) 2.) huge menu, all the basics, and tons of really creative choices too. for example, had to decide between the special of lemon ricotta pancakes and something called the "Cotuit Croissant." chose the latter and was delighted. 3.) EXCELLENT service. I was there on a weekday, so it wasn't busy, but the staff was attentive and went above and beyond in a huge way while I juggled hyper toddler twins as a solo parent. 4.) inside is super cute, modern, fresh and clean. I saw families, business breakfasts, vacationers, this place is for everyone. Can't wait to return! read more

This is a cute and cozy restaurant with a local feel. We went on a summer weekend and waited about 1/2 hour for a table. The food all seemed freshly prepared and came out pretty fast. Our waitress was also really sweet. Coffee was pretty good and this was one if the most reasonable meals we had while on the cape! Although this place was nice I wouldn't recommend going on a weekend. It's small and it was really loud. Also, because it was so busy it felt like we were all sitting on top of each other. The people next us may as well have been sitting at the same table. read more

Our mid-western family of 4 loved this spot for breakfast! Friendly, fast in spite of being a packed house (10:30 in a Thursday, busy but no wait), and delicious! If we were in town for another morning, we would be back to try something else from their extensive breakfast/brunch/lunch menu! Strong coffee, charming decor, moderately priced ($62 for 2 adults, 2 teens). Lemon ricotta pancakes were tasty, steak and egg burrito was huge, all meals were satisfying! read more

Second visit here for Mother's Day and it was great again. Friendly service, great food.

We were served a raw pancake and we politely asked the owner to take it off the bill and she gave us a rude answer back to that question we have been there many times also with not the best expirense and now we will never be going back read more

If you're looking for an excellent breakfast spot and good service, look no further than The Mills! The food was fantastic, the chef was nice enough to come out and talk to us about his Superfood Salad, and Lisa was the cherry on top! read more

Delicious! Never been let down. Always good food, omelettes,sandwiches, sausages hash home fries you name it! Jalapeño cheddar muffin griddled is to die for. Have been with my girlfriend and my family and we all love the place! A little small so during the busy hours there may be a wait but it's well worth it! Call for pick up and they're always ready when promised. Can't say enough!! read more

Rough place for brunch, waitstaff was rude and food was below par, especially for the price.

If I could give 10 stars I would! My family and I went there every morning for breakfast for a week straight last September. We were visiting from Seattle. The food is out of this world!! The strawberry cheesecake pancakes and apple crisp French toast is the best! Their brown bread is amazing!! Please make a trip here if you are in area. You will not regret it! read more

Friendly service, good food and a cute location. The food was all very good and slightly above what you'd expect for a diner. I'd go back here again if I found myself in the area. read more

Didn't have the best experience, however the response and thoughtfulness of the owner has convinced me to go back and try it again. I appreciate their honesty and commitment to their customers. I'll be back. read more

Outstanding breakfast today. Lobster/spinach omelet and crab/asparagus with fresh-squeezed OJ. Highly recommend.

Great place...clean and welcoming atmosphere. We love the staff and the food is amazing! The restaurant is very busy but we are always seated in a reasonable time...even as a family of 6 including our 14 month old. The coffee is great...and my favorite is the eggs Benedict. read more

"The Mills is a Must!" Always busy and we can see why. Had the Cape Eggs Benedict with homemade fish cakes that were light and tasty, two perfectly poached fresh eggs, lemony Hollandaise Sauce, homemade brown bread and home fries. Yum! My husband had the Traditional Eggs Benedict cooked just the way he likes them and our friends said the homemade hash with poached eggs were the best they've had anywhere this summer. Service is excellent, staff are friendly and the place is cute and clean. Doesn't get much belter than this for breakfast or lunch. read more
