    Oh. My. Honestly, one of the worst meals I've had in a while. I think this place is probably more about the concept than the food or drinks, and I have to assume they rely on tourists vs. return business. I ordered the karaage chicken bites, and they are simultaneously dry, hard, and tasteless. Yuck. I don't think I've ever left a full meal on the table before today. I would have to be very hungry to eat this food. Since this is a serve yourself place, I felt like I'd have to be a jerk to let the establishment know how bad my food was. However, when someone came by to bus my table, she noticed the food hadn't been eaten, took the order off my bill, and was super nice. So...really great service. But I will not go back.

    This place is an experience, a great one! You get a card at the front kinda like going to a Dave & Busters. The card is directly tied to your credit card, so you get to roam through the place and choose whatever you want to charge to it. Drinks are self serve! Scan the card and you pay by how much you pour! Multiple different food options ranging from sushi to BBQ to American to Mexican to ice cream! Can get a sushi roll, a burger, and an icecream! They text you to let you know when your food is ready, so make sure it's charged! It was packed on the Sunday that we went! Casual place you'll run into people in their bathing suits after the river. Indoor and outdoor seating. Food was all delicious! Really impressed and would love to come back!

    Very fun spot right in the middle of Golden! Right across from the Coors factory. Great food options as well. We got a bbq burnt ends sandwich with Mac & cheese on the side - fantastic. Wish I coulda had 2! Wife ordered the Mexican nachos and they were alright - we regretted it after having the bbq and wished we had doubled down on that instead. Beer-ordering process is awesome- so nice to be able to serve yourself, try new things, and no need to open/close tabs with the card system. We need this everywhere

    This place is huge! With so many people there, I am surprised we found parking no problem, got checked in right away, and there were no lines (except for the bathroom). We found a spot to sit and eat, and our food arrived really quickly! It was also delicious! They came up with a pretty good system there. The mulled red wine and tacos were soooo greasy I got really sick afterward! Next time, I will try something else. Cool place! Definitely try it!

    Awesome lively space to get a drink, which is charged by the ounce, and maybe even a meal (the chicken karaage is great!). Came in on a Wednesday evening for trivia night and had a blast. Certainly worth a visit if you're in Golden!!

    This is a real toss up for me. We were with a visitor who had been there when in Golden for a conference and thought we would like the concept of a food hall and like the sort of food she had there in the past. I am familiar with food halls at home in Boulder that I like and frequent regularly. This was nothing like them in so many ways. It was obvious that this is lived locally but in a holiday it was so ham packed that it was unpleasant for a newcomer to negotiate. Yes, for beer lovers the concept of self serve from the many taps and pay by the ounce Baxter so many in stock is novel, but I don't drink beer or margaritas and I could not find a simple ice tea. There were sodas from a machine which also did not suit me either. The concept of the scan card seems good for the cafeteria atmosphere and the beer supply but the food places did take credit cards, where at least you see the receipt etc. you leave the card in a box when you leave and they charge the credit card you entered to get it. No real review apparently by the customer. Most of the food I saw in menus and the tables were not my style either, huge portions of mediocre looking food. My husband had trouble figuring it part of the ingredient in the biggest burrito I have ever seen. He could not pick it up fore the crema decorating the tortilla which was thicker than any I've ever seen. On the other hand, my food was fairly good though grease dripped out at every bite. It was a Gordita made with crisp little corn cakes and the al pastor filling was tasty. The others in the group all had large portions of unappealing to me food so I did not taste and far too. Big for a healthy lunch. While we were eating at compared communal tables , the restrooms across from them were propped open for the steady stream of users. But on a holiday weekend a prime lunch time when we arrived, it was the only option. The entry line to get the pay card was nearby and the line went up the stairs to the entry with at least 20 to get and register the card, many with children in tow. Our guest knew where to park so that was no problem jf you are willing to pay to park for a meal. We were, but would have lived a quality meal and not a madhouse. The only staff person I spoke with because her food was dessert and not peak season for ice cream was so friendly and helpful and mad a custom snack size of her New Zeland style treat. She saved the day for me. I will not return but others in our party might should the occasion arise and clearly the locals who are regulars keep them well supported. I will stick with my local more intimate and curated food hall kitchens.

    The Golden Mill has a great overall vibe with many food vendors, a huge beer dispenser wall and a beautiful rooftop. Even though we visited on an extremely busy weekend, we still didn't feel under serviced. The entire setting and backdrop of the mountains in Golden is beautiful and they have many fire pits and seating to fit all. We tried the chicken karage and thought that was great. Highly recommended if you are visiting Golden!

    I was recommended the golden mill by many people when visiting golden and had to give a try! On first glance, it is located right along the river that goes through the town, which is an amazing view. Once inside there is a first floor that has a few different food options as well as the pour your own beer options as well. In order to partake in the beer option, you need to get a card that you can tap to the machine and you pay per the ounce. They have other drinks beside beer on tap as well such as different types of cocktails. They have a great food selection. That includes many different varieties of food throughout the venue as well. The top floor also has a few additional beer options as well as food options. I decided to go with a barbecue option which I got a brisket sandwich which was really good as well as a side of fries and some of the barbecue sauce. I also got a beer on top from one of the local breweries. It was a chilly day out, but I still wanted to sit on the patio on the top deck, so we sat by a fireplace. They have a ton of different fireplaces, all throughout the top deck as well as the lower deck as well so sitting outside was an option for the time of the year that I was there which was March. Maybe in the dead of the winter they don't have this option but just keep that in mind. Anyways, I thought the view of the course brewery factory right across the way was really cool to see as well. The food was really good and I love getting beer by the ounce because if you don't like the beer, you can just get a different one and you don't have to make a whole glass pour every time you get one. I definitely would recommend the golden mill. It definitely seems like a place that a lot of locals hang out and there is a food or beverage option for everyone so even picky eaters would love this place. If you are in Golden, you have to visit!

    This was the perfect first stop on our Golden weekend! SEATING There is TONS of seating and we had no problem finding a great spot with an amazing view for the 6 of us. There's tons of variety in seating options: tall tables, comfy lounges around firepits, etc. We opted for bar-style seating along the stream. FOOD We were a group of six, and everyone was able to find something they liked here. I got a birria burrito bowl - as did another in our group, three got the BBQ, and one got the sushi. Quality was great and awesome to have variety! My burrito bowl was reasonably priced: the only higher-than-expected pricing was the sushi: two (nicer) rolls for $40. All are counter service, and you pick up when you get the text that it's ready. They have a drink/tap wall as well for serve yourself drinks!

    GOLDEN MILL SUPREMACY this place is just a classic Golden spot. Love a food hall. Love a beer. Love a cider. Love to pour a beer or cider.

    Indoor/outdoor establishment with several options to eat, along with even more variety in adult beverages. Check in at the counter to get your "experience card". This card accounts for all your food and drinks. At the end of your stay, you turn card in for one total bill. Beware, adult beverages (all beverages) are charged by the ounce. The machine does tell you the price per ounce and when finished fill your glass, you do get a total -- however, if not paying attention, you can get carried away.

    Awesome self service atmosphere here! Grabbed lunch and a beer while visiting friends in Golden. I would love to come here in the summer to enjoy that outdoor patio and rooftop! After getting a card, you can go to the tap and select any beer you want and serve yourself. The card keeps track of your tab. There's also a couple different spots to get food. I decided on the Baja bowl with birria pork. Delicious. And cool view of the mountains and coors factory as well!

    Crazy mix..lets break it down. Pros: 1. Great quacamole, cornbread, and the chicken wedge was solid. 2. Like the quantity of offerings for the beer on tab. 3. Beautiful location. Cons: 1. Parking was crazy. 2. The place is serve yourself but they force an 18% gratuity on your bill. 3. The BBQ is served cold .. sausage and brisket. Little smoke taste. Weird! 4. The Aztec salad was meh ... added carne asada .. got ground beef

    Ask the Community - The Golden Mill

    Is there seating inside, and enough to fit a party of 6?

    Yes there is seating for 6 but I'm not sure if you can make reservations, its first come first serve

    Can place place accommodate a private party of about 50?

    I didn't notice any private spaces when I visited. Maybe contact Sushi Sora directly, as they have the upstairs spot and you might be able to rent something at their rooftop bar.

    AMAZING. OMG. Seriously. Are you a Mexican food lover? Do you like lovely slow cooked meats…read more(carnitas, barbacoa)? This place is OFF THE CHARTS excellent!! We are in Denver for business - and a friend recommend this spot. On our first visit (YES, we are here for only a couple days, but have been twice, so far...and plan one more visit before we leave)...we ordered the Al Pastor Tacos and the smothered Carnitas burrito. I am a HUGE carnitas fan...and this burrito was sublime. It's about the size of two traditional sized enchiladas (not too big)...had an amazing tomatillo sauce...with a wonderful pickled cabbagey thing on top. Seriously, every bit was moist and delicious. Baby had the Al Pastor tacos - which he pronounced "the best I've ever had." So, a couple days later we took my brother (local to Denver). This time, we took the waiter's recommendation (he is also the owner)...and I had the Barbacoa Quesadilla (which comes with Barbacoa "juice" and a nice little hot salsa) - SO great!; Baby had the "pork belly tacos" which, in his description, "Sublime! From a reluctant Mexican food person...those tacos were blessed." (He is Canadian and also not religious...so, this is unheard of...) We are in town for a couple more days...and plan to go back before we leave. We also purchased some of their salsas! Yum...all different, but lovely. No preservatives...just beautiful fresh ingredients. This place is a MUST GO! (Also, good and easy parking for our big truck) Nice outdoor seating with umbrellas! Super service. Our server clearly wants you to enjoy your experience. If I could give this restaurant a 10 star, I would.

    Taco Tuesday was the night we visited. So many great varieties of tacos- chicken with mole…read more Quesadilla with cheese and potatoes. Steak. Mushroom- Cauliflower.' Apparently they change the menu weekly. Can't wait to return -- but I sure won't order the rice again. That was the only disappointment. Service was as quick and attentive. Nice outside patio for a lovely evening
