My fiance brought me here for my birthday with a group of friends. The staff was extremely friendly, our server was awesome the beer was great and the food was fantastic.
What an amazing place! The selection of drinks is amazing, try some of the beers that the brewery makes you won't be disappointed. Food is amazing and I can't say enough about the customer services we received. If you want a great place to eat that offers a fantastic view, go to Mill St Brew Pub in Ottawa.....
Good place to go to at any time of the year. I've been here many times, and each time I've had the same problem. The food took forever to make. The restaurant also gives brewery tours and one time my family and I decided to go on it as we waited for our food. When we came back from our tour, we asked where our food was and they told us they just started making it so that it wouldn't get cold. I found that every time I visited this restaurant, the waiters were nice but also very forgetful. I like to get some nice ice cream after my meal, and every time I've ordered ice cream it took the waiters over half an hour to bring it to my table, even though I asked them where it was. There are lots of places to sit in the restaurant. I am giving the restaurant a 3.5 only because of how good their food is.
Sat on the patio with a great combination of sun and shade. Surprisingly quiet considering how close it is to the roads. The Belgian Ale was wonderful and perfect for a patio. Great beer for sure. The food was well enjoyed by all. The fish and chips were nice and crispy (nicely portioned too). The chorizo chicken pot pie was delicious and flavorful. The Bison Burger is probably the best burger I have eaten. Juicy doesn't describe it adequately. The mix of jalapenos and cheese was phenomenal. My mouth s watering again writing this review. Highly recommend going here for the great beers, great food, or a combination of both,.
Always a great time at Mill Street. Good
Food, great beer, awesome service and ambiance. My fiancé attended their annual Robbie Burns Dinner and it was amazing! A 5 course meal / beer pairing for $70. With Scot in my ancestry, I was excited to try food from the homeland. Smoked salmon, chicken soup, scotched egg, beef tenderloin and haggis, and sweet and spice vanilla ice cream for dessert, each pair perfectly with different beers. Not only that, the brewmaster gives a speech and explains each beer you are drinking as they come out. It was really cool. I love mill street on any given day, but I would highly suggest attending one of their sit down dinners, it's pretty sweet.
This is the place for good beers and good snacks. Great views in a nice old building. Tourtière was good and fresh with peas and ok mashed potatoes. Typical British style pub food but with some more sophisticated options. Many crave the elk burger here.
Went to the Mill Street Brew Pub for lunch on a Monday...Monday's special is their Angus burger for $5!!! Great value and very, very delicious Yukon Gold fries! Got a flight of beer and felt relaxed and ready to tackle my afternoon! Couldn't get a seat by the river-view because of many reservations but overall I was very pleased!
I have had several good meals at Mill Street. We biked here today along the River Pathway. It's a gorgeous setting, especially the patio. I love the smoked trout salad: lettuce, pears, dried apricots, pistachio crumble and a light "green goddess" dressing. This is my kind of meal, and it's great - light and fresh and savoury - but I wish it came with bread as it's a lot of greens and fish and something is needed to balance it all out. The organic lager is my favourite beer at Mill Street. They also make their own root beer. It's definitely worth trying!
The service is ok, pleasant enough. I would have appreciated a water since it was quite warm and we had been biking, but it was never offered and when I remembered to ask for it the server was nowhere in sight.
Great spot to stop for a drink. This is a perfect spot to stop for a drink if you are following the waterfront trail to downtown. Lovely patio, really pretty old building, views of the river, great beer.
Great good, odd service. The food was great and the beer selection excellent, even a good cider for my wife. However our waiter was very inattentive and didn't stop by at our table once to see how we were doing, we had to stop him as he walked by. I would recommend this place hopefully you don't get the waiter we had.
Building is awesome (but loud), Beer is fantastic, Food is OK. Love the building and the vibe is good. The beer is generally really good stuff. The food is ok but nothing to write home about. Location is a little weird but it is a beautiful spot.
Food is ok. Especially enjoy the charcuterie platter. Service is friendly. I just wish there was a better selection of quiet tables.
I had the fish and chips, probably the most reasonably priced item on the menu. The batter was perfect, it had that golden colour, and no hard brown parts. The fish was fluffy, and the batter was light, but somewhat oily. The French fries and coleslaw were perfect. Unfortunately I couldn't have any drinks, but I hear the beer 🍺 from those at the table was good. Great seat, and nice courtyard near the water.
We went to this restaurant on Friday night, the table was full so we couldn't get the window side table. But the food was awesome and the server was super nice. We came here just because the restausant we were supposed to go was closed. I am glad that we came here and my family had a really good time. Hope to sit patio next time.
It is a fun place, food is Ok. More vegetarian options would help, especially cooked food, not just salads.
It a great place to friends and family to gather and talk, it was not loud.
The staff is friendly and cheerful.
I will definitely come back.
A very nice place and location. We were a party of eight. People were happy with the food but service was very slow, it took an hour before food started to come to the table and was delivered over 10-15 minutes from the first person served until the last person was served. Some of the hot items were served cold. In fairness they seemed very busy for a Monday night. I suspect they were short staffed. I ordered the "Seafood Pot Pie" with the garden salad. It was good and presented well. Salad was just OK. The seafood pot pie said salmon, scallops and shrimp on the menu. In reality it contained scallops, maybe two shrimp but no salmon at all. It tasted good and the puffy crust was nice, just no salmon.
Edited....
So, my 2nd trip to Mill Street was like having a supernova light up a power outage. GM Amy and our server Cooper took care of our grossly large table from the second we walked in til we walked out the door.
Food was top drawer again, and this time the service was outstanding and well and truly appreciated. Nachos were delicious, the elk burger was scrumptious, and the poutine as to die for. I tried 3 of their beers... The Belgian, the lager, and the 100th meridian (which I shamelessly purchased only for it's Hip reference). All delicious and recommended.
Thanks, Mill Street!

No room outside, gave us a crummy inner table when one with the river view was open... Then server took 15 minutes to come speak to us. Food was good, the everything else was a little annoying.
Love this place! Amazing food and beer in downtown Ottawa, WITH parking! I recently photographed a wedding here and the staff was amazing, it's a beautiful venue for events with the exposed brick, wood beams and views of the river. Highly recommend!
Visited Mill St. Brew Pub during Canada Day. There was a reasonable wait and the staff seemed well prepared for the rush. Nice interior with great views of the surrounding water and historic building. The beer selection was good and the food was tasty. Worth checking out if you're in the area.
Excellent selection of in house brewed beers, a wonderful burger with a generous helping of fries. Couldn't be a better pub meal.... and the service , Pete was 5🌟! I always try and visit the MillSt. brew pub when I am in town
