Waterwheel Café, Bakery & Bar

We truly enjoy our experiences at the Waterwheel Cafe in Milford, PA. The food is outstanding, offering a delightful blend of flavors that surpassed our expectations. The picturesque atmosphere adds a charming touch to the meal, making it a memorable and enjoyable visit. Highly recommended for those seeking a culinary delight in a scenic setting.

Had the best brunch here today. Everything we ordered was excellent. The atmosphere was really lovely and can’t wait to come again. I only got to try the cinnamon bun but the other pastries also looked amazing. Highly recommend! Also enjoyed the self guided tour of the building. Such a great spot. Will definitely be back.

The atmosphere in the little restaurant is fantastic. I loved the food. It was some of the best food I've had in a very long time. Darren the owner was one of the nicest person I've ever met. It's amazing that the water wheel still works even after almost being 200 years old. This is definitely a place you need to visit. Milford PA is a great little town with lots to see. The water wheel had some of the best food I've ever tasted as a I've been to a lot of good restaurants. You will be impressed with the food.

I dropped by the Waterwheel because I heard they had spaghetti carbonara as a special. Being somebody that lived in Sicily for a period of time along with other parts of Europe. I’m very partial to spaghetti carbonara. i’m going to tell you the spaghetti carbonara that was created by the WaterWheel was amazing. The flavors were on point, and the creamy goodness with the crunchiness of the pancetta was out of this world.

Nice place for an afternoon bite. Four of us, all eating the vegan choices - which were limited but good. Lattes come in cute but not easy to drink from glass cups; smallish for a latte. Ginger ale was great. Coffee was good. Wrap was described as having avocado but it did not. Asked if wanted spicy - YES! but not at all spicy.

Delightful atmosphere for Saturday morning brunch! Delicious foods, great service, friendly staff. Take a few minutes to walk through the self-guided mill tour while you're here.

Had a phenomenal meal here! Great service too. The croissant for the BLAT was delicious and the potato pancakes were SO good! Definitely would come back when I’m in the area again.

Our food was very good. Everything I had from appetizers to dessert was delicious. Our server was nice and did a fine job. But never came back with the second drink I asked for. Other than that, it was an overall pleasant dining experience.

This is truly a hidden gem! What an amazing experience! The food was out of this world. It is a small place, but they make the most out of every inch; it is cozy and welcoming. The staff are the most friendly people. I honestly can't wait to go back! 5/5

Waterwheel never disappoints. Great specials & I like how they rotate the beer selection so I get to try a different IPA each time I go. Servers are always on the ball and the owner is hands-on to make sure everything runs smoothly. Don't forget to check out the bar area downstairs, such a cool spot.

We had the pleasure of dining here while in town. The food was absolutely delicious and the staff were all very friendly and attentive. We enjoyed the salmon special and the vegan curry. Both ordered a local cider which was also fantastic. We also enjoyed a breakfast and lunch on separate occasions both of which were good as well. For lunch I definitely recommend the vegan tofu wrap (spicy)…so good! There is an old functioning waterwheel that the restaurant is built around. Very cool piece of history. They also sell baked goods and T-shirt’s. If planning a dinner visit reservations are recommended as they fill up quickly. Thank you!

This is by far the best French toast I’ve ever had! The service was nice. And the prices were reasonable. I will be definitely be coming back. If you happen to be in the area I recommend checking it out.

Hosted my daughter's baby shower at The Waterwheel Cafe. Cozy, rustic environment with great service and delicious food. Nancie and her team created a fabulous brunch which included gluten free options. Her attention to detail with the presentation of food was impeccable. Darren was so accommodating for any needs we had and the waitresses were amazing!! Would definitely book my next event here and plan to have brunch in the cafe more often.

Been coming here for years. The food is beyond delicious and really has earned its five stars. I love the atmosphere and the sales staff are so friendly. There is a small section for little grocery items mainly gifts. They also have a large pastries selection to choose from. Worth the drive, it’s a clean, neat place with a small waterwheel you can see when seated in the restaurant and I think they also have a mini tour of the waterwheel history.

For the area, very quaint, small place but the food is very clean and not heavy with oil and fat. You can tell the chef pays attention to the quality of the ingredients because each salad leaf was crisp while the meat was very tender. Excellent place and very reasonable prices.

Went here for lunch with ny friend and was a lovely time. Great service, friendly & attentive staff and delicious food. We got the Vietnamese noodle bowl with tofu and the chicken caesar salad. Both were very good. Can't wait to go back.

My husband and I stopped in the Waterwheel Cafe when we happened to be in Milford, hungry and ready to eat. We were seated right away and provided delicious coffee and great service. We shared a brie with nuts appetizer and I got the warm ham and brie (I love cheese!) And everything was delicious. You have the check out the desserts while you're there, there are so many kinds and everything looked amazing. We got some rainbow cookies for the road and they were incredible and 1 peanut butter brownie which was probably the most tasty dessert I've ever had. It's so cute and cozy here with delicious food and even more delicious desserts. If you're ever in the area do try it out!

Really cool, rustic, historical spot with excellent food (and beautiful bakery desserts!) and service. We were visiting from out of state and relatives treated us to dinner. Our party of 8 was seated quickly on a Saturday night and our friendly waiter didn't miss a thing. What a gem in Milford! We look forward to coming back.

One of my favorite restaurants in the area. We’ve been coming to Waterwheel for over 6 years now; whenever we are in the area. Never disappointed. The service - always quick and efficient. The staff - kind and knowledgeable. The food is always delicious; whether it’s brunch, lunch, or dinner. Their desserts are always amazing as well. We’ve dined here for New Years and it was very special. I brought my mom here on another occasion and she loved it. Thank you for the wonderful food and memories Waterwheel!

If I could give 20 stars I would. The staff was incredibly friendly and very attentive. They have an entire vegetarian section of the menu and the food is amazing. I even took home an apple pie home. The decor is A+. I highly recommend coming here even if you are passing by to go somewhere else. You must stop here!
