My other sister arrived early to orchestrate the surprise and the staff were amazing and helped us pull it off. A beautiful setting, lovely decor.

Best Sunday Breakfast Buffet
April 15, 2014

The variety and freshness of the Mill's breakfast buffet can not be compared.
As the morning moves on the variety of meats and seafood increases.
If you're looking for a place with class and ambiance, this is it. The staff
is courteous. The water falls makes this place a great setting. We love Sunday mornings at the Old Mill.

Love the Sunday Supper
April 14, 2014

We went with friends and all enjoyed the Sunday Supper option. The food was delicious, locally sourced and beautifully presented. The dishes are served family style and there was plenty of food all round. Ambiance is fabulous as we were seated within view of the waterfall. We will definitely be back!

A beautiful setting and fine dining
April 14, 2014

Perfect for any occasion - dining out, wedding receptions, meeting facilities etc., the Mill is located next to and over a picturesque river with several falls - the original mill power source.
Lots of parking. Various rooms of different sizes.
Not "fast food" and not extremely inexpensive, but the atmosphere is worth a thousand words.

My review begins with a strong echo of those who remark upon the perfectly prepared, tasty food, impeccable personal service, and the most glorious ambiance sitting above the waterfall.

Beautiful Place to visit, but can't afford to stay
March 03, 2014

Very nice atmosphere, nice scenery and the food was good. But all that goodness is lost once the bill arrives. For such small servings and large prices!!! I ended up stopping at Wendy's for a burger just so I felt like I had something to eat. Will never go again, the food wasn't that good for the money.

Sunday Brunch
January 06, 2014

Best ever. Firstly, the restaurant is beautiful, fresh florals and beautiful settings. Everything you could ever want at brunch is there, hot dishes, wonderful salads, every kind of fruit, breads and rolls made on sight. Cold meats, shrimp and fish, omelets, waffles, all presented beautifully. Costly, but worth it.

The Ancaster Mill Buffet is one of the best we've been to. The selection is huge, the quality of the food is excellent and the service is terrific. Best of all is the view of the waterfall from the large room. We go there for special occasions and have taken family quite a number of times.
