We’re very excited to once again invite you to our Café At The Mill for a top-notch cup of coffee, a piece of quality homemade cake, or a delicious bbq brunch.

Café At The Mill becomes Bar At The Mill for all our Summer Season evening events. Perfectly complementing our wonderful live entertainment and special events + gatherings, our Bar is stocked with gorgeous products from local suppliers.

Our Café/Bar is open to accompany all our events. See you under the sails soon!

MUSIC AT THE MILL
Here At The Mill, we are big fans of music! We love a folk night in the back of a pub, we love a dance party under the skies, and Percy (our best little family member) absolutely loves rock’n’roll. So we’re bringing some amazing live music to our Gardens At The Mill. We’re excited to introduce you to local talent, original musicians, and national songwriters - we’re talking folk, funk, soul, jazz, hip-hop, and perhaps a little punk! Whatever it is, whether it’s music from near or far, it comes with a seal of approval from a house full of music lovers! All outdoors and undercover in our Theatre At The Mill; we can’t wait to host these gigs, and we can’t wait to welcome you.
