The Mill — Restaurant in Mammoth Lakes

We are a group of 40 somethings who visit Mammoth Mountain 3-4 times during the winter season. With each trip, we look forward to visiting our favorite female bartenders at The Mill. We have explored the bars at the other lodges, but none of them compare to the service at The Mill. Cathy & Courtney are friendly, personable, efficient, and professional. Our drinks are never empty. Their Mai Tais, Margaritas, and other cocktails are delicious. Their beer poor is nothing less than perfect and everything is served with a smile. Everyone is treated with respect as long as they follow the rules, which they are not shy about enforcing. No smoking on the patio. Keep up the good...

A friend and I went to the Mill near Gold Rush and Stump Alley chairlifts. We arrived early, before the lunchtime rush, at about 10:15 am. We got juice and soda, and I bought a croissant for $6. We spent the next three hours chatting with lunch goers in our five chair table. Someone stole the fifth chair to another nearby table but we didn't mind. At 12 noon, we got lunch. My chicken sandwich and bottled water totaled $18. It's resort pricing ! Not bad, considering we got to talk to a lot of other guests...

The loaded nachos are a great meal for two people or the best-ever shared snack for four or more. Good drink specials and on a sunny day, amazing place to sit outside. Beware, however, that on bad weather days the place gets PACKED inside and there’s hardly any room to even move.

Keep in mind that there are not very many “healthy” options here — a grilled chicken sandwich and a sad salad are the closest you’ll get.

There’s also a tool bench if you need to tighten or switch up...
