The Mill was built in 1859 by a Scottish immigrant named George McLean. The village of Aberfoyle was named after a small village below the Trossachs mountains, about 40 km north of Glasgow, by another Scottsman named George MacFarlane. The Mill Originally functioned as a grist mill, powered by the pond situated at the back of the building. In 1867, the Mill won a gold medal, for its oatmeal at the World's Fair in Paris.more...See more text

I would definitely return to this restaurant. The meal was fantastic. Everyone at our table had Prime Rib and we were all in heaven. I think our server was a little bit strange but nothing too memorable since I can't remember the details.
Was at their Sunday Brunch today.
They have the appetizers, desserts in another room and they serve the main course. Their are 4 choices, my girlfriend and I had the eggs, pea meal bacon and potatoes. Everything was great, the chocolate mouse was fantastic.
Upon entering the Aberfoyle Mill, I felt a little trepidation. The Mill is a very unique building but the decor is very dated and some of it verges on tacky. The host was friendly, if a bit unprofessional in his boisterous greeting. The food, however, made up for it all. The caesar salad my husband had as a starter was lovely and the vodka smoked salmon appetizer I had was delicious and generous in portion size. I followed it with the rack of lamb which was cooked perfectly and generous in portion size compared to other lamb entrees I've had. The accompanying vegetables were also delicious!!! My husband had the duck confit which he thoroughly enjoyed. We finished with creme brulee, another hit. It was an all-around good dining experience, if you can overlook the few flaws the place has which have nothing to do with the food.
Very cool building and lovely location for a restaurant. However...I was really looking forward to it, having heard about the Mill's reputation for fine cuisine. It was more like your average steakhouse. I can't complain too much, most of my party seemed to enjoy their food. I ordered the porkchop, and it was really very dry, and not all that appetizing. I guess that's why they serve it swimming in a pool of red wine sauce. The pate, however, was delicious.
Our server was unfriendly and not all that proffessional. She didn't offer us coffee or tea anything with our dessert. I just expect more when someone is dropping $300 plus on a dinner. Not really worth the money for me, somewhat of a disappointment.
I felt like I was in a family style restaurant not a fine dining restaurant. We went for a special anniversary and were seated in a hot room with what seemed to be a birthday party. Very noisy and bright. Atmosphere zero. The prime rib (which you could only get as med. or med. rare) was tasteless and put on plain mashed potatoes. Very disappointing. I did express my displeasure to the man at the desk and got nowhere. Would never go back and wouldnt recommend this restaurant at all! This may have been the place to go in years gone by but not now.
