The Old Mill Restaurant

Continuing on the prior topic of breakfast venues, my favorite local Sunday brunch spot is The 1761 Old Mill Restaurant in Westminster. The buffet spread includes a variety of outstanding breakfast foods in addition to carving stations, other entree items, and a tempting array of desserts. The cost even includes a champagne toast! While the food quality and variety at The Old Mill is fabulous, the true highlight of this restaurant is the quaint atmosphere. Brunch is offered in a cozy, window-lined room overlooking a small pond. Reservations aren't required (or necessary, at least the mornings I’ve been there), but consider making one anyone to request a window seat - the staff cannot guarantee seating requests but will do their best to accommodate. The grounds are gorgeous, as are the many character-filled dining rooms. Special events are frequently held at the restaurant, with the classic setting serving as the perfect backdrop for photographs. The Old Mill also has much to offer in the way of lunch and dinner dining, and the Cracker Barrel Lounge area is a charming spot to relax with a drink.
