The Spring Mill Café has been serving French country fare since 1978. We're a BYO that serves lunch, dinner and Sunday brunch. The historic property features the original Spring Mill general store, and the picturesque converted farmhouse. When the weather is nice, guests are invited to dine outdoors adjacent the gardens, either on the patio or on one of the porches.

We were pleasantly surprised with authentic and delicious French food. Very quaint and romantic. A wonderful experience and look forward to go back in the warmer months. Only complaint is the very cold draft each time someone entered or left the restaurant. They really need an additional door outside to keep the cold for guests.

The food was delicious and authentically French. Service was fine. If there is a large party, eight or more people, in the restaurant they could dominate the noise factor but a minor issue.
