    They are expensive. The size is well worth it. Taste good with option of adding your own salt. Like home cooking from the gravy to the biscuits delicious.

    Very good food and the chicken fried stale is great, and good old fashion country food.

    I was super excited and very hungry. Came for a meal over the 4th of July weekend. I was…read moreimmediately confronted by a wait person who accused me of dining and dashing the last time I came here for dinner. Mind you that I have never in my entire life ever left a restaurant without paying. I'm no teenager so definitely can pay what I owe. And in fact, in the last few visits, have generously tipped the old mill staff at minimum 20-25%. When I chose to give them $100 to cover the bill they accused me of not paying the last time...they at first refused then proceeded to tell me the truth...that the machine they were using the night I was accused of not paying was not working and they had encountered multiple problems with different patrons that night...and many other payments had not gone through. In fact, they said after that they were forced to replace the entire system. So I ask, if you knew it was your system...why would you then accuse a patron of purposely not paying the bill. I stayed to eat. I even tipped extra. But after I left, I realized the situation put a distaste in my mouth. Hopefully the server and mgmt learn not to blame a Patti for their bad machine/system. That was in poor taste. That approach made the food tasted mediocre after that. Next time I'll think twice before I choose to come again.

    ZERO STARS!!!My first time visiting this coffee shop was 4 years ago. And it was great. We went…read moreback today and had our best friends with us, excited to show them a really neat and eclectic coffee shop. That is NOT what we found. When we walked up the once cute landscaping on their patio area was unkempt and cluttered with old motorcycle parts. Walking in I immediately noticed the lack of cleanliness. There is just clutter everywhere. And it was covered in dust and grime. There are three tables in the place. Two of which were being taken up by people that weren't actually eating or drinking anything. The other table had a dusty Christmas tree sitting on it with no space to be used as a dining table. One of the workers was I guess just kind of hanging out with those people and the other worker was standing at the register. What I'm getting at is, neither worker was actively making anything for anyone that was currently taking up dining space for actual patrons. The space was so cluttered with stuff you would have thought it might be someone's storage space instead of a restaurant. The whole atmosphere of the place was just gross. I needed to use the bathroom as we were on an 8 hour road trip home. The bathroom was absolutely disgusting. There was no soap in the bathroom and the sink and toilet looked like they had never been cleaned. I live by a rule I learned from watching Gordon Ramsey. If the bathroom of a dining establishment isn't kept clean the kitchen won't be either. This rule has served me pretty well I think. And this place was screaming food poisoning central. The two that worked there seemed nice enough but the pride they have for the place is completely absent. The menu they have in place looks good, but the cleanliness of the place completely ruined it for us. We decided not to eat. We still needed a stretch of the legs before getting back on the road so we were going to enjoy some fresh air outside on the patio. We couldn't even do that because it smelled like pee. And there was bird poop all over the tables. I really love to see quirky and eclectic places succeed, but this place has lost its pizzazz and needs to be closed down. How the health department hasn't done this yet is beyond me.

Castle Donuts has easily earned a spot among our all-time favorite donut shops. Are they decorated like some over-the-top social media donuts? Not necessarily. But honestly, who cares when they taste this good? Everything was fresh, soft, fluffy, and packed with flavor. The cinnamon rolls, bear claws, and apple fritters are HUGE! And the apple fritter? The smell alone had us hooked, and somehow it tasted even better than it smelled. I'd much rather have a donut that's simple on the outside and absolutely incredible on the inside than one that's picture-perfect but tastes like air. Castle Donuts gets it right where it matters most: flavor. If you're anywhere nearby, do yourself a favor and stop in. You'll understand the hype after the first bite. We loved every single thing we tried and will definitely be back the next time we're in town!

    Breakfast one morning while in town, the cafe was within walking distance of where we were staying…read moreso we walked. A small old school diner. A busy locals spot, we were not greeted walking in but grabbed a table and someone came over with menus a few minutes later and asked if we wanted coffee. About five or so minutes later another person stopped by our table to take our order. Our food arrived timely enough but was literally dropped off by another person with no interaction. Paper menus were well used. After looking it over I went for the Dads favorite omelet, with applewood smoked chicken sausage, mushrooms and onions, jack and cheddar. Hashbrowns and toast on the side. A big breakfast, it was okay and met my needs that morning but just okay. Not the most friendly folks, no hello walking in and no thanks or good bye going out. It is what it is but it does effect my returning. 3.5 Stars rounded down for the non effort 01201

The service was friendly, the only thing we realized after the meal was that no one checked on us after we got our meals and therefore we had no opportunity to order more beverages or ask for anything we might need. The meal was ok, honestly I expected more after reading the rave reviews, but I found my California Crepe to be just so-so. Also, the iced pumpkin spice latte didn't have any pumpkin flavor to it. On the plus side, the portions are huge and the menu is very extensive. I appreciated the amount of vegetarian options! Even though I didn't rave about my meal, I'd still come back to try something else. A few in my party had the chicken fried steak and they said it was very good!
