Great stop for a good sandwich & happy vibe when traveling. Off the beaten track & tasty! Will come next time we pass thru. Loved the Brie sandwich & salad! read more

My memory is hazy as the visit was back in November but I do remember just loving the food.

Nice roadside stop in Montague. It's really the only place that's alive up here. Overall the mill is rundown and neglected. Lady Killigrew is all that's left. Food menu is limited. Indoor and outdoor seating. Ambiance outdoor needs help. read more

The Lady Killigrew Cafe - Lady Killigrew - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Montague, Massachusetts

Classic, simple menu with an extensive local beer, wine, and cider list; friendly, easy-going service, but the view of the River along the mill make this a forever return. I enjoyed the special sandwich - kielbasa, cheddar, saurkraut, and a little whole grain mustard on grilled sourdough. I also nabbed a cold peanut udon noodle situation for my drive later. Love a morning spent in the stacks at the bookmill followed by lunch and a bev at lady killigrew. A western Mass weekend staple. read more

The food is really good. Enjoyed it all. The location is off the beaten track. The views are great. It's a quirky place with a limited menu. Don't expect lattes and other fancier coffees. They don't make them. The salads are awesome. Food is fresh, simple, delicious. And with it being attached to the Book Mill bookstore is another huge plus. I hope this place lasts forever. read more

Found this place close by to a concert we were going to at Montague Retreat Center. Unfamiliar and in the middle of nowhere where, The Lady Killigrew Cafe was a blessing! Timing was great as they close their kitchen at 8pm so we got there around 7:40 with just enough time to grab a bite. Cute and quaint, right near the flowing waters - I wish I got to see this place in the sunlight! The tunes here are great, I was dancing immediately. The staff here is sweet and the space itself is so fascinating! Has a cute charm throughout all the way down to the bookshop. I ordered the Number 1 sandwich. It was flavorful and just right to warm up my stomach. The salad was fresh and unique! Tasty stuff that had me perfectly satisfied. read more

When you're at the Montague Bookmill, this is a must stop. Seating inside and outside with a gorgeous view of the river. Food is extremely fresh and oh so good. We've only been there for lunch and the sandwiches are amazing. My son recently had the brie, apple and apricot jam and it was grilled to perfection, served with a delightful side salad. 10/10 strongly recommend! read more

I stumbled across this place on the long drive home after hiking the Mohawk State Trail, it was definitely off the main road but it is the definition of a hidden gem. The food was fresh and delicious, but the view was definitely a highlight of this visit. We ate right over a waterfall with the sound of water complimenting our whole meal. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone driving through. read more

Had the curried chicken sandwich , delicious! Salad dressing was the best! View was amazing and connected with a wonderful book store. Great place to hang out and relax read more

Why they have a web page is beyond my comprehension. The listings on the menu are incorrect and don't say what is grilled, just that it is grilled. It says to get an updated food list you can order online. I tried. I called and got "oh that was for the pandemic, the web page is kind of wonky now, you can't order online. FIX THE WEB PAGE. What serious business leaves an unusable web page up for years? And people wonder why many restaurants go out of business. By the way, if the take the time to go there, the atmosphere is pleasant and the food is good once you get a chance to see a paper menu. Oh my, you have to be there to see a menu. So much for attracting out of towners. read more

Beautiful view, excellent service, fabulous food. Loved that it opened up into the used book store.

Wonderful place to relax, kickback, cup of coffee, something simple to eat in a really pleasant environment.

Located next to the Montague Book mill, this cafe has such a charming location! We sat outside with a beautiful view of the bookmill. The inside is quite nice and quaint as well; it's definitely a place where I'd like to drink a nice cold tea while looking paging through a novel. The menu is quite short and simple but the food is delicious. I got peanut noodles and my friends got ham sandwiches. The peanut ginger udon was delicious but I'm not rly sure why they call it udon because it is not udon! There was slightly too much ginger for me. I wasn't the biggest fan of the curried chicken because I was not used to the sticky texture. The sandwiches were yummy! My only complaint is that the food took sooo long to arrive. We waited maybe 40 mins for 3 dishes. Granted, it was quite a busy day for them, so we didn't mind as much. read more

Good food, great view, lacking in any A/C. Even the ceiling fans are not in use, on today's 90° weather. Some of my party had to leave due to indoor climate. A little unclear on dish expectations post meal, food is brought to you, but I believe you're expected to self-bus your table. Food selection is solid, connected bookstore adds to complete a quaint café experience. I would recommend, maybe on a cooler day, though read more

Delicious food in the coolest setting. Make sure to visit the used book store which is attached to the restaurant. read more

Great vibe, dedicated and friendly staff, tasty sandwiches and simple lunch items. Unique location and co-located with a great used bookstore - the Book Mill. Best when not too crowded. read more

I live nearby and love the Killigrew. The view is great and people working on their laptops and the music do not bother me one bit as others have complained here. It would be nice if the menu and tea selection were updated. I also wish the hours would expand to 9pm again. I miss holding my writing group here. It's hard to find out what the story is with the constantly changing hours since the owner doesn't view or maintain online sites - Yelp, Facebook, Chat, Google business and even their own website. The hours are out of date on all of them and they don't respond to messages. Doubt they'll see this. read more

A-OK café attached to the book mill. The view is impeccable. It was very hot inside so I opted out of having lunch here and ordered a hibiscus iced tea and a cookie outside overlooking the waterfall. read more

Excellent food and beautiful and beautiful spot. Could use soup choice-they would sell a lot I think. Salad and sandwich was tasty. read more

Really nice location next to a used book store and the view is lovely down to the river. That said, I thought the food and service were mediocre. I ordered a black tea and it was bitter and cloudy. Staff did not offer to exchange it, it was so bad we threw it out. Our four sandwiches took forever and mine arrived cold. They serve the sandwiches with a side salad and didn't even think to offer, if they even have options, for the kids in our group. Overall, the vibe was somewhat pretentious, somewhat disinterested. Sandwiches were ok, salad was good, but too bitter for my kid. I would not recommend. read more

Yes it is a little hard to find. But it's worth walking down the alley from the parking lot. Located right on a river the views are fantastic and the good is really solid read more

Great food, great ambiance. The Hot curried chicken with tomato and red onions was delicious paired with ipa brown ale. Eating by waterfall was very relaxing read more

What can I say? A beautiful summer day next to a waterfall location. All the window seats taken, but not one person talking or enjoying the view. All staring down at their IPads. The atmosphere was as dreary as forced attendance at Evensong. I had to laugh, one couple sharing a table, but not one word spoken between them. Just staring at the computers in front of them. Gee folks! It's suppose to be a cafe. Not a morgue. They should advertise it as such. Food okay, but very pricey and had to wait forever for a sandwich. Didn't appreciate the forced tipping on credit card before getting food. Had to carry our drinks to the table. Maybe I should get tipped for that? In the future, I'll sit on my deck, make my own sandwich and run the shower for that water effect. read more

this place is so cute and quaint! the staff is always super chill and nice. The view is also awesome bc of the bookmill!! I got the curry chicken sandwich (HIGHLY RECOMMEND) and the sandwich with apricot jam, brie, and apple (forgot the name). I liked the sweet sandwich but didn't particularly enjoy the apples (ended up taking them out and it was yummy without it). The salads on the side is also really simple but taste (has balsamic vinaigrette on it). read more

I like this place but it's impossible to a) study b) have a quiet conversation c) enjoy the idyllic sounds of the water (which is kind of the point of this place) with the loud music they chose to play here, which is clearly for the staff to enjoy. read more

The peanut noodles were delicious. Didn't wait long either. Plus with living right down the road from this place how could it get any better? It's just a small warm place. read more

A wonderful cafe located in a really cool old gristmill. Their grilled sandwiches are delicious, much better and more filling than what I expected from a cafe. I had the special of a grilled sandwich with carved ham, swiss, caramelized onions and sage mayo which also came with a good-sized salad. My bf had the curried chicken sandwich which was also really good. The prices seem a bit hefty at first glance but are pretty decent for what you get. It was super crowded when we went last weekend and rather difficult to maneuver around the small space but the service was friendly and pretty quick. Definitely check out the bookmill afterwards! read more

Curried chicken sandwich. Fresh brewed iced coffee looking at a serene landscape. That's magic right there.

Delicious, uncomplicated food, beautiful views of the river, and very friendly service. The curried chicken salad is delicious and the side salad that came with it was one of the best I've had in a while! 100% recommend! read more

Do not come here if you have a food allergy. I arrived at this restaurant and informed them of my nut allergy and when I asked for a deeper explanation on how they would prevent cross contamination, I was asked "what's my issue?" It was very clear that my questions to make sure that I would be safe were a burden to the staff. Find a kinder place to eat if you have allergies loves. read more

The food was the crappy the sandwiches where so bad it tasted like they gave a two year a bunch of ingredients and said make a sandwich.the bread was stale my mouth hurt trying to chew it .when we eventually got our sandwiches it was a hour later. My sandwich came out tasted it wasn't supposed to be tasted we asked if they could make it again and it came out 15 minutes later when you just had to slap ham and cheese and bread together. The bread when I eventually got the sandwich was the wrong kind of bread. The hibiscus Barry tea tasted like water.when we went in to order it was a oven. Most of this I would understand if it was a busy day but it wasn't busy. In all I wouldn't recommend this place save your money and eat somewhere that's good read more

Yeah, I just want to live here, OK? It's got everything, book store next door, windows overlooking a cascading river, the constant sound of running water over rocks, great teas, sandwiches, desserts, a chill crowd that minds its own business, wifi. The only bummer is that there are so few tables and seats that unless you score one almost immediately, good luck getting one since everyone seems to stay put for hours on their laptops. read more

Great spot to relax with good food and drinks! Great to do some quick work and enjoy a view

Absolutely delish lunch spot! My husband and I both had the curry chicken sandwich and we both loved it! The outdoor seating is perfect and we were lucky enough to get one of the tables on the side where you can see the river. Definitely recommend checking this place out if you're in the area. read more
