Testimonials

Fantastic Fleetwood Mac Tribute

We went to the Fleetwood Mac Tribute Show with a group of 12. The band was excellent! The dinner options were great, the service great and a great time was had by all! My group wants to go back for another evening of dinner and dancing soon.

Classic Tea Time

Yesterday my guest and I enjoyed a classic tea time at the Old Mill The ambience was charming and historical and the tea delicious which paired well with the scrumptious traditional sandwiches and sweets The staff were attentive and non intrusive refilling our teapots I recommend enjoying the experience with a like minded person for a civilized respite.

The band was fun and energetic!

We had so much fun dining and dancing at the Old Mill’s St.Patrick’s Day party this year. The band was fun and energetic, and we were comfortable to dance pretty well the whole time that we weren’t dining. So much fun to have a night out!

The Perfect Night Out!

What a fun night – dinner and dancing was fantastic ! Loved the people and the atmosphere. Just right for a fun night out without the hassle of going downtown.

Lovely Afternoon Tea Birthday Celebration

We had a lovely afternoon tea to celebrate our joint birthdays. Excellent staff who took great care of us and regularly topped up the hot water for our tea. All the food was excellent. Good variety in flavours and textures. Special shoutout for the delicious clotted cream. Wonderful experience. Looking forward to coming back in the future.

Great Meal and Jazz at The Old Mill!

Great meal with friends, then thoroughly enjoyed the Jazz Lounge. Old Mill team, you’re doing a great job with great food and service and top rate Jazz.

A Lovely Afternoon of High Tea

A lovely afternoon of High Tea in a historical setting with wonderful friends. The Old Mill transports you to another time and space. The only comments is I wish we had a variety of menu items for the tower (more options for the sandwiches). We will continue to visit and refer friends and family.

Incredible Jazz and Great Service

This was an amazing show. We really enjoyed this and we see and listen to a lot of jazz. Please have Carlos back. He is a gem! Service was great and the evening was wonderful.

Fabulous Girls Night Out

We had a fabulous time on our girl’s night out dancing away at the amazing Fleetwood Mac cover Band. They were awesome. We had the best view from our table and choose to have appetizers instead of a meal. We absolutely loved the Mediterranean Fatbread, the Old Mill salad with shaved brussel sprouts, fries with Aioli, finished off with the cheesecake. Yummmm! Marian was our server and we enjoyed her presence and service. She made our evening very relaxed and fun. We felt well taken care of.

Fantastic Buffet for a Special 90th Celebration!

We celebrated my Mother’s 90th birthday at the Old Mill on the weekend. The lunch buffet was fantastic. The food selection for the buffet was great with lots of different dishes to choose from. Everything was very fresh and the presentation was exemplary. Our waiter was very attentive throughout the 2 hour window that we were there. Afterwards we were able to enjoy the grounds.

Perfect Mother’s Day Celebration with Great Food and Jazz!

Amazing night! Loved the food and the live jazz! My mom and I really enjoyed the ambiance. What a wonderful way to celebrate Mother’s day.

Delicious Food and Amazing Jazz!

We ordered calamari, salmon and steak. Everything was very tasty and well prepared. Plating of the food was amazing too. Deserts were surprisingly good. We enjoyed the jazz show as well. All in all, it was an unforgettable dinner event for us. Thank you!

Perfect Date Night – Amazing Food and Abba Mania Performance!

It was a wonderful evening. I had the sea bass and my husband had the steak. Delicious meal. Service was very good. The highlight of evening was Abba Mania. Incredible performance. They had everyone on the dance floor engaged. This was our 3rd experience event at the Old Mill and each time we had a wonderful time. Perfect date night. We are looking forward to the Winter events at the Old Mill.

Outstanding Food and Service!

The Old Mill is such a special and unique setting, whose grace makes any occasion more special. It was a great place to entertain an out-of-town guest coming from a city where everything is modern. The variety of foods at the buffet is extraordinary. A huge variety of choices and many of them quite creative. It is possible to find tasty choices for any diet…. and we did As always, service is attentive and professional. All in all, a delightful visit. Can’t wait to come back again!

WOW!!! Epic Night!

This experience was EPIC!!! I planned a surprise for my Mother and it could not have been more perfect!! We attended the Dining and Dancing Prince edition!!! WOW!!! This was legit one of the best experiences I have ever had!!!

Extremely Accommodating to Vegans

We had the most amazing experience at the Old Mill for afternoon tea. The food was delicious, they were extremely accommodating to vegans and the service was fantastic! Highly recommend.

It was a beautiful setting with well curated nibbles. Drink offerings were unique and plentiful. If your looking for a traditional afternoon tea in a relaxing atmosphere this is the spot!

Elvis’ Tribute Was Unforgettable

Elvis personifier was able to totally entertain and motivate restaurant guests to dance. He was able to genuinely connect with patrons and enrich celebrations! His talent and performance made the evening worthwhile. We totally enjoyed ourselves.

Luxury Tea Experience

Incredibly priced afternoon tea. Luxury experience with delicious food.

An Amazing Night at the Jazz Lounge!

Jazz Lounge is fabulous ! Caity G up close and personal – really great seating. Great food and ambience…thank you Old Mill team.

Best Buffet in the City

This might be the best buffet dining (or brunching) experience in the city. Variety, freshness, food quality, presentation, service… all very high standard. Pricing is towards the high end, and value is comparable. Expect food, a beverage or two, taxes and tip to end up in the 90pp range. Reserve early, this is a favourite spot for family festivities… birthdays, showers, anniversaries and reunions. Deservedly so.

Simply Fantastic: Enjoying Live Jazz at Its Best!

Simply fantastic. I went to attend one of the Friday night Jazz sets and it was wonderful! Fifth Element were playing and they are great! Sitting and enjoying a meal in such a lovely venue with a live jazz band playing music is so worth it.

Toronto’s Best Jazz

This is a great place to take in some of Toronto best jazz artists. Quality entertainment in the Jazz Lounge Dining Room.

Beautiful High Tea

We had tea in the oldest room in the mill. Great service. Beautiful tea and 3 tiers of sandwiches, scones and treats. Great for a special event. We have gone a few times now and would recommend.
