Aberfoyle Mill Restaurant - Guelph

On our way home from Cambridge we decided to have dinner here (5:00 PM) and I am glad we did. Staff was very knowledgeable and friendly. The dining room where we ate is filled with antiques and we sat near the fire place. We were told a brief history of the mill and told to wander around which we did. All the gears and water from the original mill are still there. They also have many different areas to eat in, Later that night they were hosting a murder mystery night upstairs. In the summer they also open the patio which can accommodate many people which I never knew they had.I had the roast beef (house favourite) and my wife had the lamb accompanied by a tasty red wine. This was preceded by a Caesar salad whose dressing is made in house! Don't find that very often these days! I would recommend this place to anyone.My only disappointment is that I have passed this place many times over the years and never once did I stop to eat here. It certainly was a delightful experience.

Service great, atmosphere pleasant, food was amazing . Very experienced wait staff. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

Personally, I was disappointed. The variety of food in the buffet was so so at best. Having poultry and lamb on the same cutting board shouldn't have happened. Staff should have re-stocked the buffet in a timely manner and we felt rushed to leave.

I have been to the Aberfoyle Mill 4 times. The food has always been fantastic! I would definitely recommend. It seems to be an older crowd - many in their 60's + and the mystery dinners I've attended also seemed geared towards that demographic. The building is beautiful ... the ambiance is classy and unique. Living close by, I have seen many weddings on the property - great setting! I planned a function for 30 people and they got everything right ... everyone had a great time.

We had: a bottle of Baco Noir from Pelham Estates, the spicy shrimp appetizer, the stuffed chicken and prime rib and finished with the creme brûlée and cheesecake. Everything was amazing. We requested the fireside table and they were able to accommodate. Staff were attentive and genuinely interested in us having a night to remember. The food was fabulous and we couldn't have asked for a more perfect night.
