Visited in the afternoon on a sunny day- nice small outdoor seating area. Local spot, friendly service and very quiet. If you're looking for a place to wind down and eat outdoors but not in a crowd, here is a nice spot- especially the view of the lake. We got the chicken sandwich and grilled salmon panini. Both were good sized portions at a good price and what you would expect taste wise- we said "not wow but perfectly fine", you wouldn't be disappointed with either. The fries that came with both (one sweet potato and one regular) were both really good though. Overall a really nice lunch experience! read more

Authentic German food and they are nostalgic nestled next to a pond in Yaphank. Staff is friendly and courteous on point and the food is always fresh and delicious. Highly recommend. read more

I am so sick! Doctor said I got food poisoning. And my friend gave the waitress specific food Allergy information & then got sick with the exact allergy reaction that she gets. Thank God she is OK. Too bad bc we loved the outdoor live Music thing they had last night, but can't trust this place! read more

This place is mostly location. Wait staff is great. Food is ok. All about how pretty the place is.

Took my granddaughters and daughter-in-law there before going to the Yaphank farm and the food was delicious and the staff was very accommodating to my GRANDAUGHTER's dietary needs read more

The food was delicious! Service was good but towards the end of our time there it seemed to get spotty but think it was because of a big party! We will be returning! read more

Great fresh food Fabulous service Nice atmosphere Easy parking especially for handicap patrons read more

Had the fried seafood dinner. It was all previously frozen, over breaded and dry with no seasoning. Wife had the stuffed salmon in a wine sauce, sliver of salmon with stuffing. Crab cake was small, but almost reasonable with a price of $16...it was good. Onion rings were good, the beer was cold. I don't think I'll be coming back. read more

Asked if the sandwich had seeds on it I'm allergic she said no the sandwich came out with seeds she said she would get a seedless roll came back with a dry panini bread toasted with the meat and no cheese and gravy when I asked about it she said she would tell manager sent check out with someone else I'm not one to complain but this place is terrible read more

This place is great! Has a real upstate vibe! Lovely view of the lake. Food was delicious! Almost everything for lunch was $15... sandwiches and salads. I got chicken on mine for $5. The price of health lol. My husband loved his mill house sandwich. My son loved the gummy worm ice cream Sundae that came with his lunch ($10 kids lunch). I would love to come back now that I know it's here!! read more

See all

Had the "Seafood Fra Diavlo" - tasty, spicy sauce, but all seafood was overcooked and rubbery. Got the public school cafeteria vibe with the red tray The dinnerware had that 'egg' smell.. My wine glass had lipstick on it and water glasses were empty for too long. One and done for me read more

Great food at this bar by a pond! Found it by a mistake and stopped in. It was a happy mistake ! The baked clams were VERY GOOD! I had the crab cake sandwich, which was fabulous! My husband said is steak sandwich with sting onion rings was too! read more

Food and service is good. Prices are fair and portions are average. I would recommend this restaurant.

This use to be one of my favorite places but today i went there and was told they no longer allowed dogs outside. What???? Really???? So needless to say they have lost my business but because they lost my business a new place found it. Southpaw brewery in yaphank was amazing. Sorry millhouse but you won't be seeing me anytime soon. read more

7 of us made a reservation and met there for dinner. Awesome steak tips as an app.....at least three of us said we'd order those as an entree in the future. The nachos and scallop apps were also great. I can't say enough about how good the meatloaf was. The service was amazing. Definitely our go-to place from now on. read more

Saturday evening birthday dinner...came to dine Al fresco while listening to country music by Chantilly Whiskey. The outdoor deck is super smoker friendly; both at the bar & tables all had ashtrays as well. Being an asthmatic this is a big turn off for me but it was a no deck, no band set up so we went for it. Service from our older waitress was very good; she was attentive, professional and super nice. However I had asked to hold the croutons on the Cesar salad and the broccoli on the salmon special neither of which happened. I asked what type of specialty coffees they serve b/c another table nearby had some and was told Mexican but then the bar staff didn't seem to know what Mexican coffee is and had to look it up?!?...it initially came out without cream. Food itself across the board was just okay; nothing to rave or complain about. Don't know that we'll return as dining overlooking the lake was a big draw and my idea of a perfect summer night but not with the full on bar scene going on simultaneously. Should also mention the hubby called ahead for a reservation and that was spot on; we had a sign on our table when we arrived and it was a good thing as the deck was filled to capacity...very much appreciated the follow through there. read more

Love their German / American Cuisine and beautifully decorated dining room. We've had lunch here several times and recently stopped by the bar for an amazing Mill House Salad and cold beer. Great food and impeccable service, cheers... read more

A Yaphank institution! Everybody loves Mill House Inn. The food is great, the drinks are great, great view of Yaphank Upper Lake, and the service is friendly and helpful. They have American food and also authentic German cuisine. And this building is legendary, goes way back before this business took it over in 1998. Growing up in Yaphank, this place has always been popular in the 70's, 80's, and right up to current times. As kids, from this parking lot we used to swing off the tree and jump into the water in the summer and launch off the grass with ice skates in the winter. This place gets pretty wild, they throw some awesome parties and events too. read more

Lots of good dishes to choose from. Wraps and philly cheese steaks are my boys favorites. I like the pasta dishes.

Great food and great prices. Crab chowder and lump crab burger were fantastic. Beef stew with noodles also fantastic. Go here. You won't regret it read more

In the summer, we ride our bike, get drinks, and relax by the pond. We have eaten here many times; cannot believe I never rated it. Tonight, I had my usual yummy French Onion Soup. My husband ordered the creamy crab chowder. Creamy and crabby, but not really chowder, still, tasty. My husband ordered the baked clams and sirloin tips for appetizers. Baked clams were not very clammy, and loaded with too much flavor of herbs. Sirloin tips were flavorful and tender, perfectly served with garlic bread for dipping in the teriyaki sauce. My husband had a perfectly cooked burger, piled high with fried crispy onions, bacon and cheese. I had the chicken Milanese served with artichokes, spinach, asparagus and mashed sweet potatoes. The perfect, delicious dish!!! Good, quick service. I also wanted to order a take out meal for my daughter, that was a lunch item, and the server was so nice and accommodating!! Price on point. Overall, just basic taste preferences for us, but an excellent meal. A definite must! read more

This place has a lot of potential. We came in here to eat after kayaking up the river. It was a very nice day and they had live music in the back which I thought at first was karaoke. So we asked if we could sit outside but the tables were full. The waitress said that there were some people that looked like they were about to leave. We sat at the bar while waiting. At the bar there was a bartender that it seemed that every interaction had some sort of strange tension to it. There were menus all over the bar that said lunch and it was 4pm on a Sunday. My friend asked is this the menu right now? The bartender said "is that like some sort of trick question?" She said well here is the dinner menu too. (Not telling us what menu was in force) The dinner menu was almost exactly the same besides some of the lighter items were off it. When we got seated (1 hour later) it was told to us that Sunday is "dinner menu all day". But they did allow someone to order a lunch menu item. Seems the owner was working like crazy in the kitchen, but she should be out on the floor checking up on the staff while delegating some of that kitchen work to others. read more

Meh. I don't want to give this place a bad review, because I came here expecting something different then what we got. Preface: every so often, I like to get jiggy with my charitable self, and sign up for a cycle event with my local Team in Training Chapter. I love these people, and I'm doing the 2012 Ride to Montauk Century with them, raising money for LLS. We have our ride next weekend, and we wanted to go out as a group after our wind down ride of 50 miles, for a bite to eat and some beers. We had a group of about 20 people, and decided to sit outside. enter: mountain bike crew. We had a mild turf war over tables and seats and whatnot with these guys - it was one of the weirder experiences of my life....and.... cut to: overwhelmed wait staff trying to accommodate a deck full of hungry, hot and sweaty cyclists grumbling about having to share with each other. That just led to very slow, inaccurate service. I believe some people waited a good 30 minutes for a beer (wha...follow me, young grasshopper, to the bar inside and order it instead of getting it from the waitress...you'll even get the second one free) and close to an hour for our order to come out. We didn't order anything too fancy, I'm talking like sandwiches and burgers and the like. A few of them were wrong, we had trouble getting water and napkins and just general stuff you'd expect when eating out. me? I ordered wings and a lump crab meat burger to split it with a friend. The wings were bad. I honestly love wings, these were dry and small some were burnt, and they were served with watery ranch dressing (a huge f-cking faux pas in my book). The burger was more stuffing then crab, which is unfortunate considering we are ON LONG ISLAND, but I wasn't expecting a gourmet meal. I do think that the food and service was sub par the price - which honestly wasn't expensive. Those two items came to about 20 beans, which is reasonable, but only if it were closer to edible. Did I eat it? Yes, I was f-cking starving, but if I wasn't so hungry I wouldn't have gone through with it. the sweet potato fries however, were off the f-cking chain. So much so, that I stole them from my teammates (think, tap on the shoulder, whats that! grab fries and run). They were big and full...mmm mmmm good. And the honey mustard they had was good (way important to have good Honey Mustard). My friend loved her salad with seared tuna, so it may just have been a mistake in the ordering process. I just have a hard time thinking that I need to be careful ordering bar food staples, they shouldn't' be THAT bad...how hard is it to make some wings? That was a rant, I apologize. NOW had I come here with a few friends to sit outside, have a few beers and maybe grab a meal, would I be giving this place 3 stars? No, I'd be giving it 5. The location has a view of a pond that people are fishing in, kids are playing in, and doggles are swimming in. They have a set up for a live band, and the guys we were with were playing some sweet tunes, and they have a bar right outside. If I had a motorcycle, I would ride it here. I think that they were overwhelmed by the amount of people, and it seriously affected the service and the food. read more

This place is an oasis in a pond of crap! Its on a crappy weed filled pond too!! Go here if you want really and I mean really good german food. They also have great burgers and the tuna sashimi I had was probably the best I've ever had period. I've had it all over the world too and in Yaphank, tasting that nice pinky red seared tuna nearly drove me nuts...It was quite the trip. Fried Calamari was sweet and tender, served with three dipping sauces...Thai chili sauce for the win ;-) read more

Like my girl, Johanna, I also cannot give this place a bad review because 20 of us walked in unannounced, sweaty, tired and hungry looking for service. Every year I work with Team in Training doing endurance sports to raise awareness and funds for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. This year, I did a cycling event that was just this weekend and so much fun!!! So, the whole group of us, on our last team practice ride decided to get us some grub and beers! First, let me not forget, beers at the bar were 2 for 1! Ohhhhh yeah! So we wanted to sit outside and so did this group of mountain bikers referring to us all as "roadies." Very creative. Anyhow, I'm not here to talk about how they were annoying... I felt bad that the staff was so overwhelmed between the two groups. They did do their best to try and get everything for us but it was def. much easier to get a drink at the bar rather than waiting for a waitress. I ordered a chicken wrap with sweet potato fries and the sweet potato fries were amazing and the warp was just ok. They were setting up for live music on the patio when I left and I'm sure that's a lot of fun for a lot of people! :) I'd try it again with a smaller group - and if I do - I shall update my review. read more

One of the reasons why I bought my house this place is right around the block and it's amazing

New carpeting gave off a disgusting smell which certainly put a damper on enjoying our meal. Ordered the sauerbraten and I knew it wouldn't be up to the high standards of my mother's, but have no idea what this awful thing was. read more

Quite decent food at a fair price. Never been disappointed no matter what I've gotten. Never been completely wowed either but I don't expect to be. Good place for a quiet relaxing lunch away from it all. Updated to 4 stars. Must have been in a bad mood when I reviewed. Food consistently good. read more

Beautiful restaurant- the building was an old carriage school for boys, which is fun. The food is delicious, the servers are sweet and attentive. I've been here twice and haven't been disappointed either time. I recommend the chicken and waffles or empanadas for appetizer, and then DEFINITELY go with the pork chops for dinner. They are insane... Cooked perfectly on the bone over sweet potato mash with roasted brussels sprouts and a brown sugar glaze. read more

I went there for Psychic Night. Cooking is my passion and I am a foodie who enjoys eating out. I ordered a pasta dish with chicken and my Daughter has the Pork Loin. Neither one of us enjoyed our food. Mine was bland and the pork loin was tough and tasteless. They need a better chef. The ambience and decor was pleasant but I would not visit again. Maybe they can hire me as a sous chef, I am sure to pack the house. read more

We came here on a nice afternoon looking for some lunch before heading back to Queens. Located in what seems like the middle of nowhere with nice views of a pond. It has an indoor dining area, bar and pool table. The outdoor portion features a dining area and what appeared to be a (mobile) stage. They have a fairly large parking lot too. On to my experience.... Our group ordered the bbq chicken nachos to start. They were ok. Wished they had used some shredded cheese and in my opinion, pulled chicken might work better. They had a decent beer selection on tap, a long with unsweetened iced tea and lemonade. For lunch I ordered a chicken wrap. It was tasty and messy. Could tone down the sauce, but that might take away the kick. The rest of the party seemed happy with what they got. Chicken panini, cheeseburger and crab cake sandwich. I would definitely go back and would suggest it to any friends looking for a spot for food on their way back to the city. read more

I have been there many times and I have never been disappointed. The way the food is prepared it is always tasty to the palette. The service is good as well. If you get Margie to wait on you, you hit pay dirt, she is a gem. read more

It's been awhile since we have been there. We had the German Cuisine for dinner and it was excellent. If you like German food, be sure to visit the Mill House for a quality dinner. read more
