Great bar! They have lots of events and great live groups plus a good selection of board games to play
Great Sunday Brunch 9am-11am! $5 gets eggs and bacon or a breakfast burrito or pancakes or biscuits and gravy. $3 mimosas and bloody mary's too!
Wonderful place, wonderful people. Order a wine bomb, you won't (maybe) regret it.
Aaron SJune 20, 2012Great staff, good food, and AWESOME shows of all kinds. It's just off the Ped Mall and the people are cool even if a few too many of them are sipping PBRs.
LevakerNovember 2, 2015Work at the mill until you die. Or drink at the mill until you pass out. Best bar in Iowa hands down.
Brian FNovember 30, 2011I was recommended here by a friend and it didn't disappoint! Large servings of pasta with garlic bread on the side. And even better.. FREE DELIVERY!
Definitely recommend The Mill. The grilled cheese and nachos are both amazing!

Christopher WeitzDecember 6, 2011Great bands in the back and I would highly recommend their breakfast. A lot of fun and a relaxed atmosphere.
Alex ShockeyMarch 5, 2010The Chicken Curry Salad was very tasty. It came with apple slices, caramel dip, and bleu cheese as sides. They always have good music too!
