Big breakfast with all the trimmings after a night on the town.. and a good latte.
Great service, and very reasonably priced.
Definitely come here again.

Fabulous Pumpkin Vege Pizza with Creamy chili prawn. Surprise to see this bar's food is getting better and better. Service is awesome. Staff is very friendly and warmth. Oh forgot to say that chicken wings is brilliant as well.

A hidden gem in the heart of the city. 
Decided to have a quick lunch at the Mill on Hardware Lane. I like the atmosphere as you can sit inside and enjoy a meal far away from the hustle and bustle of the city noise and traffic. I like to use my imagination and pretend I'm looking out on the little streets of Venice, but that's just me. Ordered the Bruschetta as an entree and had it with the Chili Prawns, I think it went well together. Had a lemon, lime and bitters with it. The prawns were well cooked and tasty, the chili it came in was spicy and zesty and the bruschetta was nice and filling with a little salad on the side (because we all have to eat our greens). Great ambience and mood, I'd recommend the Mill as a place to take both mates or dates if you're in the city. 

Very nice food, great service and staff who were warm, inviting and made me feel welcome. I feel as if the Mill have earned their five stars here (and also feel like others are being a bit overly critical).

Great waitress, attentive and friendly even took the time to write a list of bars to visit that night as we were only in Melbourne for the weekend and had no ideas about the nightlife, food was good prawns were amazing and went back the next day for dinner, salmon was good.

Nice waiter was good for a laugh. Risotto with pumpkin seeds was great, pork belly needs to be ordered with sides and the classic Mill burger is a tasty choice.

I'm so glad I stumbled across this place on Zomato while trying to find a place to dine today. Everything about our experience tonight was spot-on! The service was impeccable, and I've no doubt it would be the same even if it were busier- our waiter was absolutely lovely and so hospitable, making sure we were enjoying our meals and even bringing us a plateful of extra crackers to mop up our delicious duck liver parfait. It really would have been a shame to let that go to waste! The food was delicious without being pretentious- something that is a refreshing change in Melbourne's dining scene. This place definitely deserves an A+ and I'd urge you all to try The Mill at least once!

I didn't find it overpriced at all. The meal was very well cooked and presented, the service was friendly and efficient and the drinks good value. It's not a five star restaurant but it's not pretending to be, just a good place to eat in a major city centre.

I have been here a few times. It's usually not full with people. The waiters are friendly the menu... If you are watching your figure not a good place to go.

The food is good but over priced, there is technique here & they get it. The food is cooked beautifully but it lacks that something special making it unfortunately forgettable

Based on what my friend and I had, you don't come here expecting sensational flavours or cutting-edge techniques, but what appears to be on offer is decent-sized portions of pretty good food (it's not often I'm pretty much full after a single main and half of a side-dish).

I had the "pan roasted chicken"... it turned out to be two good-sized chicken breasts cooked very nicely (still moist all the way through, which is no mean feat) with some slices of baked peach (cold - which I wasn't expecting), some chunks of nicely baked potato, shredded bacon and some (underdone, for my mind) brocolli.  It was a big meal and all pretty tasty.

Friend had the lamb shank.  It came with a lot of sauce (a very tomatoey concoction with a strong taste of sage) and a decent supply of mashed potato.  Dish could have done with a bit more meat, but it was tasty, nicely cooked and a good-sized portion.

Side was the "cauliflower grattan" - perhaps the sauce was a little more runny than I'd have liked, but it was still nice (and very, very hot when it got to the table).

Yes, it may be a little pricey for the food provided, but that is probably down to location. Overall, no complaints.

If you're in the area and are looking for something roughly equivalent to a good pub-style meal, you probably won't go too far wrong here.

We came here for dinner. Although the restaurant hadn't opened yet, they still brought us in and seated us at their window table. This slight gesture brought us relief after a tiring day. Everything else followed perfectly; the food was excellent as per the recommendation from their server. We started with olives and toast, then had slow-cooked pork and seafood basket as mains. We had better for these dishes, but this also does not mean these are no less delicious. With this, we bring our score to 4 out of 5. We would consider coming back to this place, not just for the food but for the overall experience.

Service was very adequate, the owner did great on his feet. The food was delicious especially the mains. Rib eye steak is a must and the Seafood Linguine with Chilli just devine.

Went there for my daughters 18th earlier this month. We were visiting from interstate. David(owner), the German(waitress), & son (chef) were all great in their roles. Everyone in the group (ranging from 4yrs to 70) had a great time and commented how awesome the food was (& how entree was perfect for our group). At no stage were we rushed out the door. My daughter was made to feel special by making a cocktail. Yes, I did book ( but only about 3 days before), and we were given a limited menu option (but preferences were spoken about, and it suited our group). We had preordered 9 meals, to try and make it easier. David seemed very proud of his establishment and just wanted our group to enjoy their night. He wanted to please and ensure he had enough food etc. It’s impossible to stay fully stocked when you don’t know if you’ll be closed/locked down again next week (or with a few hours notice). Thanks David and crew for a great night.
