It’s a cool little experience and a nice view, but I didn’t eat at the restaurant or meet anyone that actually worked there.

Such a beautiful old mill that has stood the test of time. The little store is so cute and the restaurant was very good. Had lunch here after a long hike in the nature preserve. Want to come back to see the Christmas lights for sure!

Beautiful place with outstanding food. The pancakes are massive, the pecan smoked bacon is sublime, and the home fries are fried to perfection. Excellent service from attentive staff. Stop in and eat, you won’t regret it!

Great atmosphere along with friendly staff. Food came out in a timely manner and everything was exactly as ordered. Food and service were great. Cute little general store. It is a smaller establishment so there might be a wait time and parking may be hard to come by. But there is plenty of on street parking. Loved the views and history this place has. Will definitely be back.

What a wonderful experience with the family. You have to go here and experience this little piece of history. I hear it is amazing during Christmas. We enjoyed our time together here.

This place is neat. It’s small, we went through everything within an hour. We went on a weeknight in 2022 before the bad weather came so I guess everybody tried to go as well. There was a traffic going in for about 10 mins. Thought we wouldn’t get parking spot but we did. We had a 4 year old with us and she loved the display, so did we! We didn’t need a stroller for a place that small. I think 2 or 3 years and above could walk the place just fine. They had Santa working in a building that waved at her and took a picture with her from the window. Hot chocolate was about $3-5 depending on the size you get or what kind you get. We didn’t get it at the time. Overall we had fun and would come back. I think they just need kids’ price instead of everybody paying the full price for 4 years and above.

Historic Clifton Mill is a beautiful place to visit during the Christmas holidays. This place is very well lit up with over 4 million lights. There is a lot of walking around to the many themed settings as you walk through the area. There are a few locations where you can purchase soft drinks, hot cocoa and even a gift shop to purchase decors, food and gifts. A lot of work has been put into this place for everyone to enjoy. Be ready for the lights to go out at certain time throughout the night for a beautiful light show to Christmas music. There is staff on the premises to park vehicles coming in as well. I highly recommend this place to bring your family or friends for some fun.

We went for their Christmas display, and have been coming here for the last 14 years. It’s fun to see the working mill with the beautiful lights. My kids now love it too. It can be really busy, so go when it’s a weekday (and it’s cheaper), and when the weather isn’t optimal…otherwise it’s packed.

We did not go for the food, just for the views. It definitely smells good! There were a lot of people there, parking was on street parking. They do have a very small gift shop where you can purchase tshirts and pancake mix. I would love to go back and try the food.

My boyfriend and I came here for lunch after hiking in Yellow Springs. Beautiful place to eat, quick service and the waitresses are all super friendly! Some of the BEST biscuits and gravy I’ve had in the area, and the raspberry tea was amazing.
