    Great staff. Fun to go. A quaint place but can get loud if all the tables are full. Food was delicious.

    Dessa was our server & she was incredibly kind & attentive. We ordered the breakfast burrito & the chicken fried steak. I’m a big fan of chicken fried steak & order it whenever it’s on the menu for brunch. Few places get it right. Crispy, not soggy, light but flavorful sausage gravy. The burrito was just right chorizo was flavorful but not too salty or dry, eggs cooked perfectly & the onions were nicely sautéed. My husband asked for it without the red bell peppers & when our plates came out, my breakfast potatoes had sautéed onions & bell peppers with them but his did not. A simple detail that might have been overlooked elsewhere but did not go unnoticed here & we’re very appreciative of it. We wanted to try their blueberry pancakes as well for a sweet treat at the end but my husband convinced me to see how portion sizes & how we felt before we did. We’re glad we held off because the amount of food was the perfect portions to be full & satisfied but not heavily groggy. They also had fresh baked cinnamon scones on our plates that did the trick & my tastebuds couldn’t be happier. 10/10– if I ever opened my own bed and breakfast or bistro, I’m 1000% taking that move right out of their playbook. We both would order these menu items again & will definitely be back, in addition to taking all our friends when they’re in town for a visit.

    This was my third time to the windmill Bistro and the third time I did not enjoy my experience. I would not have gone back but my spouse likes the place. They had a menus for vday weekend that I was not aware of but that was what it was. However if you are going to serve a $50+ steak you should know how to cook a steak. This isn’t the first meal that was not prepared correctly that I have had there. Needless to say I will not be back if I can help it.

    Very pleasant lunch celebrating my sister's birthday. We enjoyed the beet salad, onion soup with a side of crispy fries and fab chocolate mousse cake for desert. Good coffee. Bryn was our server and couldn't have been nicer. I'd recommend this restaurant, consistently good. Will be back.
