At Millpond Gatherings, we are an all encompassing hospitality center where you can eat, celebrate, shop, and stay with us here in the quaint town of Northford, Connecticut. The Millpond Steakhouse, run by Executive Chef Pedro Avila, is a farm-to-table modern American steakhouse with a fine dining flare. Our dry-aged grass fed beef is sourced from our own cattle farm just 2 miles up the road, and accompanied with local produce from our surrounding farmers. Downstairs in the Tavern we encompass the spirit of historic New England with a cozy laid back atmosphere and weekly live music on Thursdays and Sundays.

Millpond Events is our venue hall located adjacent to the restaurant. This rustic charming space will harvest many special memories and celebrations.

    The dry aged steaks were phenomenal! The flavor was perfection. The individual sides were very overpriced for the size they were 10 dollars each and it was just enough for one person. 10 bucks for a little mashed potato is a stretch in my opinion. The carrot cake was delicious and they make a mean espresso martini! The restaurant itself is gorgeous with a few stone fireplaces throughout and it’s very cozy.

    Attractive setting, fantastic steak (filet) and fish (:salmon)and wonderful sides (garlic mashed, delicately cooked spinach, or broccoli/cauliflower). Good wines by the glass, and a freshly baked popover. Not cheap but prices were fair for the quality of the food. We will be back soon.

    Food was good, service wasn’t awesome. They were not attentive to filling water glasses or clearing dirty dishes. We had to ask for steak knives! Desserts (cheesecake pops, molten chocolate cake, pumpkin cheesecake & carrot cake) were outstanding! Table was very crowded for 6. Seemed like they had a skeleton crew working the steakhouse, perhaps due to an event going on in the front banquet hall.
