So happy that Willow & Whisk is now in Millburn. I went for brunch with friends and it was a great experience. I got the lemon ricotta pancakes and they were delicious. I love syrup, and seldomly do I decide not to use it on pancakes, but the lemon pancakes were so packed with flavor I did not need it. The lemon is prominent in the taste, but not overwhelming. Just perfect. The service was also very good. I got my masala chai relatively quickly and my meal came shortly after that. The truffle fries were also very good. The ambiance of this place is great! There's a bar area and seated areas. Pretty much everywhere in the restaurant you have space as it is a spacious area. Very good restaurant with very very good food. 5 stars. read more

First time here, beautiful ambience and atmosphere. In the heart of Milburn downtown. On a Wednesday morning, we had to wait 20-30 mins to be seated, but it was worth the wait Ordered eggs Benedict with smoked salmon, pancakes , oat honey latte ( loved this ) and a side of skillet potato's ( also delicious ). It's definitely an upscale brunch experience, servers and service were amazing. Will come back for the lunch menu. read more

Willow and Whisk accomplishes being both casual and upscale at the same time. Others have describe the high-ceilinged dining room. When weather permits, the patio in the back is equally charming. Service was gracious and efficient. I have eaten there twice and it was excellent both times, whether my usual breakfast order--eggs over easy--or something more ambitious. My daughter likes it, too. (She is in her 30's.) A real gem in Milburn. read more

This restaurant has a very nice ambiance visually. I especially liked the indoor lighted willow trees. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating available. My only complaint was the noise level. Our server could not even hear our order. The menu offers about a dozen breakfast items, about a dozen lunch sandwiches, five salads, and a few other items. I opted for the Cobb salad. The salad itself was very good. However, I did not care for the green goddess dressing that comes with it. I then asked my server if I could just get some ranch dressing and she said they did not have ranch dressing but offered the lemon parmesan or the vinaigrette soy. I decided to go with the lemon parmesan but to be honest it had no flavor. My husband had the chicken sandwich with sweet potato fries and seemed to enjoy it. read more

Well, this place sure is popular on a Sunday during brunch and I can see why! The hostess was very kind and said it would be an hour and fifteen minute wait, but if a seat became available at the bar or high tops, we could sit earlier. We elected for the bar and were sat in under twenty minutes. Our waitress' name was Alana and she was excellent. She took our drink order right away. My mom had decaf coffee and said it wasn't bad. I had the campfire S'mores latte which was delicious but the latte itself had an odd aftertaste. It even has teddy grahams on the top, and I would not recommend getting if you don't like sweet drinks. The fluff on top was delicious especially paired with the graham cracker crumbs. As for our starter, we had the pumpkin popovers which were different. They kind of reminded me of little muffins with a different consistency. The star of the show here was the pecans which were so delicious. For mains, my mom got the whisk omelette, which she said was rich and delicious. I got the lemon ricotta pancakes and the pancakes were so fluffy. I would get this again. The lemon sauce on top tasted like a lemon loaf from Starbucks which I did not mind at all. The blueberries paired with the lemon were a perfect combo. I also got the patatas brava which I would literally go back just for that. The potatoes were cooked perfectly and the aioli was absolutely mind blowing. I would come back here again. The atmosphere is perfect for brunch or lunch. I'd recommend a reservation if you can make one since they are so busy. On a random side note, there are a ton of people working here and everyone is so helpful! I will be back. read more

As you walk by from outside, Willow and Whisk looks like potentially like another big production atmosphere dining spot, where the food will be overpriced, bland and nothing special. We have been pleasantly surprised that the food, especially the omelettes, are amazing. First, they actually saute the contents to ensure the taste comes to life to complement the fluffy eggs of the omelette. The combinations of ingredients blend together. We loved the Farmhouse, the Mushroom Thyme and the Whisk. For whatever reason, the service timing of the coffee/drink bar does not complement when the food arrives. Even when it's not particularly busy. During our first meal there, the coffee drinks came almost at the end of the meal. The second time, drinks came just after the meals were served and most recently, they came after we intentionally ordered just drinks and French toast bites first, to try and avoid late drinks. The servers are all nice, but management needs to figure out this basic synchronization, especially for coffee lovers who want a few sips of caffeine before the plates arrive. Even basic diners have quick ice water and coffee service down to a standard protocol. Otherwise, this is a high quality breakfast and brunch spot in a cute suburban Downtown. 75% of the tables are walk-in's... a welcome business model recently where impromptu dining is discouraged. Definitely don't miss. read more

Went here for lunch on a busy Sunday, around 1:15pm. Restaurant was packed but we had a short 5-10 minute wait for a table for two. We were seated and it took approximately 10 minutes before anyone came by, and when he did, we placed our order: two drinks (lemonade and a jasmine iced tea, both delicious), a So-Cal Crispy Chicken, and a Turkey Club. 2025.06.30 Updated edit to original review: changed Service from 4/5 to 2/5. While it was busy, it would have gone a long way had our waiter come by within the first 3 minutes of us being seated and said something along the lines of, "I'll be with you in a few moments". But the big reason for this score change is the fact that my GF saw something I did not: a woman had finished wiping down two tables behind me and while walking away, past other patrons, was swinging the cleaning rag she had just used around in circles. Another 10 minutes went by and we were brought ice water and our drinks. And another 5-ish minutes went by and my GF's So-Cal Crispy Chicken sandwich (which she said was good and would order again), and I was brought a panini, the prosciutto panini, I think (by someone who wasn't our original waiter). I obviously sent it back and about 5 minutes later, I was brought a Turkey Panini by the same not-original-waiter. I flagged down our original waiter and asked him if my sandwich was in fact, not a turkey club. He apologized, removed the turkey panini, and about 5 minutes later, brought me the correct sandwich. So, the wait was worth it: absolutely one of the best turkey clubs I've ever had. Just wish it had arrived correctly. The waiter comped my lemonade. I told him the third sandwich was worth it, and he seemed surprised that I got two incorrect sandwiches. Not a huge deal, won't stop me from returning to order it again. As far as the ambiance: it's loud. If the restaurant is full, expect to be straining to hear conversations with your table-mate. Overall: 3.6/5 but I'm rounding down rather than up to make a marked point about the service issues. Food and Drink: 5/5 Service: 2/5 Ambiance: 4/5 (probably a 4.5/5 if seated outside where it was less crowded) read more

Nice brunch spot, the decor is bright and airy, with lit trees indoor. They also have an outdoor section to eat. Make sure you have a reservation, it was busy even for a Friday afternoon. My party was seated after a bit of confusion, we had a stroller that they swear was in the way, but it wasn't. After being seated it took a while for someone to take our order. Our waiter finally came over and was friendly, but when we placed our order he kind of questioned everything we chose, we asked if there was anything he would recommend, he didn't have a great answer. I ordered a cold s'mores latte, tasted mostly like milk, I should have accepted the hot one they mistakenly brought out, it looked yummy! The pancakes & bacon ordered were good. My friend enjoyed her burger. We were chatting and one of the last few inside, but never felt pressured to leave which was nice of them. read more

Upscale family friendly breakfast and lunch spot. Was quite busy on a Saturday morning, but the service was very fast so they kept things moving. Simple food but cooked expertly and was delicious. Nice selection of coffee drinks. read more

It's a beautiful restaurant and the design is very well done my favorite were the trees with the lights on them it felt very rustic. I was seated quickly and our waitress was very friendly and paid attention to my needs. I started off ordering a Mini Brioche French Toast. It was amazing it came with chopped bananas and strawberries with a side of maple syrup and whipped cream it was a perfect way to start my meal. My main dish was the Farmhouse Omelette with breakfast potatoes. It tasted home made and even though it had red pepper coulis it wasn't spicy. The breakfast potatoes were crunchy and seasoned well. I will definitely be coming back in the future read more

We've been coming to willow and whisk for a few years now and the food is always consistently good. We were pleased to learn they had opened a location in millburn which is a bit closer. We decided to stop by for lunch and I ordered my usual dish which is the goddess chicken sandwich on their rosemary focaccia. It tasted fantastic as usual! I also had the butternut squash soup which I tried last year and absolutely loved it. This one was a tad bit sweeter than I remembered but great nonetheless. I'm happy to know that the food quality is consistent. Inside is beautifully decorated like their Wyckoff location and there is a convenient parking lot across the street. Service was good, no complaints. I look forward to coming back in the near future! read more

Amazing!! This place is everything you'd want in a brunch spot. I stopped with a friend for brunch on a weekday and it was pretty busy. We waited a short time before being seated at the bar. Service was quick and friendly while the vibes were great for brunch! I would probably make a reservation next time and definitely on the weekends. We enjoyed the truffle fries and ricotta poppers with a delicious lemon curd. I also enjoyed the truffle chicken salad sandwich with sweet potato fries. I felt the portions were big and well priced. The menu had a wide variety to choose from for brunch of both savory and sweet and I'll definitely be back to try more! Located in downtown Millburn, it only has paid street or lot parking. read more

Popped in for a quick visit this week. Tables are close together so would imagine weekend brunch being quite crowded. Only after ordering did we realize how little time we had to get to our next appointment, but everything came out quickly and efficiently without seeming too rushed as if corners were cut. Quality was not compromised at all in the quick turnaround. Lavender lemonade was delicious, and so many yummy sounding seasonal coffees. We tried tres leches, amazing, piled high with whipped cream and drizzled with caramel - dessert in a cup. The big chains have nothing on this coffee. Truffle fries were some of the best I've ever had, not greasy at all and just enough for the truffle to not be overwhelming. My guest took a box for the black onion burger since we ran out of time to finish. When we got to the parking lot she noticed our waiter walking around, I thought he might be on break, but nope! Came running out to make sure she didn't miss out on the sauce that was left behind. Talk about going above and beyond. Shout out to Elijah, he's the best! 11/10 service! Can't wait to come back, maybe next week! So much on the menu I'd like to try, and staff overall were very warm, friendly and welcoming. Happy to find a new favorite. read more

I'm new to the area and wanted to try Willow and whisk because I love going out for breakfast. Everything on the menu looked fabulous but I opted for my usual bacon and eggs which was really good. The service was very attentive without being intrusive eggs are done perfectly, and I got the little extra bit of toast. I wanted to dunk into my soft yolk. Happy to find a great brunch place near my new home. read more

It was ok. Not great, not terrible, just right down the middle. Service was fine, the dining room is bright and airy, and the staff seemed friendly. Some misses with the food (cheese not even close to melted in the omelet, some of the food was cold, and took forever to get coffees) but the best part were the "appetizers" like the French toast bites and the frittata bites. Glad we tried it, but IMO not worth the cost. read more

I take my friend Rose she's really like my mom. She is 77 yrs old and doesn't like to eat anywhere including home. At Willow and Whisk she found her most favorite place to eat. She feels like she is the First Lady of the USA. From the moment we pull up in parking lot till she is done eating the service and friendly atmosphere is obvious. I wish I can give Willow and whisk a 100 star. I highly recommend Willow and Whisk to anyone you won't regret it. LOVE LOVE how this particular restaurant give a chance to our youngsters and college students. they give young women and men an opportunity to proof themselves to our society. keep up the excellent service, hospitality, food. Family oriented place to go.BTW we Go every day. read more

Brunch at Willow & Whisk was absolutely delicious! I got the Espresso French Toast and I cannot get over how amazing it was.

The restaurant itself has a great ambiance that is both inviting and comfortable while also being instagram worthy. I definitely can't wait to visit again and try more of the menu! read more

Willow & Whisk is an aesthetically pleasing brunch spot that delivers prompt service and delicious food. For coffee, I got a sage and butterscotch latte with oatmilk and my sister got a gingerbread latte. Both had a nice flavor profile without overwhelming flavors. For the appetizers, we got the lemon blueberry ricotta poppers with lemon curd. They were fluffy with a great flavor and kid friendly. The mains we got were the huevos rancheros style and cacio e pepe scramble, both of which were great. The potatoes were flavored well and crispy. I will definitely be back to sample more items on the menu read more

Friendly relaxing space and a broad menu of breakfast/brunch items makes this a pleasant and easy way to start your day. Great for groups as well. Many food items are pre-made and par-cooked, so they can be a little less satisfying and somewhat bland. This was my experience with an omelet a sausage. The omelet was a pre-cooked egg "patty" reheated and wrapped around filling of choice. The chicken sausage was tasty but a bland texture, not crispy on the outside like it was just cooked in a skillet. Overall, a nice spot and not too expensive. read more

Driving out to Millburn has always been a trip to buy bread at Livs Breads because their sourdough is really good but we stumbled across Willow & Whisk because we were looking for some breakfast. Let me tell you something the food is amazing. Our waiter was amazing and very welcoming. Actually the whole staff were very nice and approachable. When you walk in you see these two white sparkly trees and all the color choices and aesthetics of the place are very appealing. Now onto the good stuff. My daughter got the mini brioche French toast and she loved the two dips maple syrup and whipped cream cheese topping. She was dipping her strawberries in it. My husband and I split the lemon ricotta poppers and those were very good. I got the Breakfast Classic with their homemade chicken sausage and homemade sourdough. The chicken sausage had very good flavor to it and it was light. My husband loved the brussell sprouts with lemon Parmesan dressing and the Breakfast Burger. Everything was very good and quality and the price is perfect. Can't wait to come back!!! read more

If you're on the hunt for a standout breakfast or brunch spot, Willow & Whisk should be at the top of your list. From the moment we arrived, the warm and attentive service set the tone for a great dining experience. Our server was on point, taking our drink orders right away as we waited for the rest of our party an early sign that efficiency and hospitality go hand in hand here. To start, I had the golden milk chai latte, which was perfectly balanced not overly sweet, but full of warm, spiced flavor. My husband and father enjoyed their coffee, which they both gave a thumbs-up. For an appetizer, we shared the mini brioche French toast, and it did not disappoint. Crisp on the outside, soft and fluffy inside, and paired with a whipped cream cheese dip and maple syrup it was a delicious way to begin our meal. For the main course, I had the Whisk Omelette, and the bacon-onion jam took it to the next level. My husband went with the classic breakfast, adding the house-made breakfast sausage, which was hands down one of the freshest, most flavorful sausages we've ever had. My dad ordered the buttermilk pancakes, which were fluffy, golden-brown perfection, while my mom--the birthday girl opted for the So-Cal Breakfast Bowl which she thoroughly enjoyed. The portions were just right, the food was fresh, and the service was excellent. A few things to note: I loved that the staff was diverse and welcoming. If you're looking for a place to relax and linger for a long time, this might not be your best bet Willow & Whisk is bustling, and while you won't feel rushed, there is a timed seating policy. Parking is convenient, with street parking and nearby lots. All in all, Willow & Whisk delivers on quality, service, and atmosphere. We'll definitely be back! read more

What a gorgeous space. Went on a busy Saturday afternoon. Was happy to have been able to get 1:15pm reservations as when I walked in, folks were being told that it was an hour plus wait. We started with coffees, Honey & Oat Latte for me and Butterscotch & Sage for my friend. So heavenly. For shared appetizer we got the lemon ricotta poppers with lemon curd. It was nice (a bit on the drier side) and so glad it came with a side of lemon curd. I got the cacio & pepe eggs with a side of bravas patatas and my friend got a burger which came on sourdough bread not a bun. We both enjoyed our meals. I will caveat this to say it was super busy and the wait staff was lovely but the one call out would be that they never came by to see if we needed more water or coffee. At the end of the night we had to ask multiple waitstaff where our waiter was so that we could get the bill read more

I love this restaurant. The food come out really quick, and the seasonal menu was amazing. This is one of the first brunch spots where I can focus more on talking than hungrily waiting.

I am not one to do bad ratings but this time it's necessary. The place is nice and new. Clean. Food was decent. However our waitress was rude and cold. She should not be a wait staff. Awful service! No WiFi to share. This is odd since there has to be WiFi for the staff. I Do not recommend this place for business meetings to meet there. The waitress said they only allow 90mins per table. We were willing to order more food or drinks (which we did) and continue to work and enjoy our meal. But she was rude and just handed our bill without asking if we would like anything else. We were not told we only have the table for 90mins when we arrived. Customers should be told. And make exceptions for business guests and be more accommodating if needed WiFi. read more

What a really nice addition to Millburn. Came here with my Meetup brunch group and we were all pleasantly surprised. We were a party of 8 and our server was able to provide us each with separate checks which was really nice. I couldn't decide between lunch or breakfast because everything sounded so good. I decided on the shallot burger with mixed greens as my side. The burger was cooked a perfect medium rare but it was a little greasy. That's my only complaint. I also had a gingerbread latte which was quite yummy. The service was great and the ambiance as well. I'll definitely be back with my man one day soon. read more
