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.

Excellent chef who knows, which is very rare, how to cook fish the right way, namely, the flesh remains moist and tasty.

Meal was okay. Portion size was significantly smaller than prior visits. Beet salad was supposed to be made with beets and baby kale. Instead it was made with regular kale that was not edible. Complaint about the salad resulted in a shrug of the shoulders by the waitress.

Food and staff always excellent. We were seated outside and there were a number of speeding vehicles racing by throughout the meal which was unfortunate it beyond the control of restaurant. Recommend sitting inside unless it’s later at night.

We have been to SMC several times and they always deliver on service and food prep. We had several of the new autumn menu items and enjoyed each one. It’s also a perfect setting for a fall meal.

French food is hard to find and they do it right. Small menu but still had to choose because the dishes are so interesting and authentic. Service is great as well.

I wish this restaurant was closer to my house as I would be here more often! Celebrated a friend's birthday, with Spring Mill our new traditional place to come. We arrived early and were invited to sit outside and drink our champagne. The food was delicious, sharing the cheese plate and pate as a starter then the salade de canard for me and the steak frites for my friend. We were both ex-pat's in Paris and how we met. We definitely felt like we were back in France enjoying brunch in a lovely bistro. Wonderful ambience, food & service and love that it is a BYOB!
