SawMill Grill — Restaurant in Oxford

Update 08/24: After several years, I decided to give them another opportunity. It was pretty much the same experience as previously. Average service, we waited about 10 minutes before a server came out to recognize our existence. Sub-par quality foods, and we had to go inside to get our own silverware. What made the experience worse was the fact they do-not support the 🇺🇸US Military🇺🇸, which is appalling and disgraceful behavior. In-fact, it's totally inexcusable and they should be ashamed of themselves for disrespecting the Military and our Veterans! Have a Blessed day....

I went there when they 1st opened and thought they were pretty good, but went back the other evening with a friend and he ordered the nachos and a cheeseburger. The notchos were not so great as they were not homemade they were from a box or plastic bag pre-made elsewhere and the nachos seem kind of messy. The cheeseburger I tasted was very salty and not as good as I remembered when I 1st went there when they just opened up. It could be just me, as my taste buds have improved over the past few years. I'm what people call a foodie. I don't just eat food, but I taste every part of the food, from the texture, to the full flavor, unlike most people who just eat food to fill their bellies. The staff was very friendly, even though they were closing within the hour. My friend had to place his order immediately as the kitchen was closing within a few minutes. My friend wanted to order some dessert, but was told by the waitress the kitchen was already closed, which was kind of odd to say, as it's not very difficult to put a piece of cake or pie on a plate and bring it out to a customer, which doesn't require the help of a kitchen staff member. Lol.... Overall, a decent small town bar-restaurant. Have a Blessed...

I never ever write bad reviews, especially for a local business but the meal was so poor and the service so medicore for a special occasion, and we chose to celebrate here.. First the location is not handicapped accessible so we struggled to get my eldery mom with a walker in the door, then they give us a table with more stairs, why??..The waitress was not nice, rather abrupt, no smile, not friendly. My mom and I ordered crab cakes and my husband the steak, med well done..The steak was raw and a big white tendon going through it..the waitress was no where to be found to send back to cook longer. The waitress never reappeared until our meal was more than half way through, we needed butter, steak sauce, drinks, etc..no service The crab cakes were bloated, with breading and too much bay seasoning..While trying to eat them, another patron came over to our table and said to us, aren't they terrible, and proceeded in telling us she too made the mistake of ordering them...this didn't make us feel too happy. We all ordered mashed potatoes, which we thought were going to be regular mashed potatoes but we were served were boiled, waterlogged potatoes, luke warm, not whipped with butter and milk..we couldn't eat them, horrible. We spent $100+ for food and tip, for a special birthday meal that we couldn't not eat..I am so disappointed because we spent a lot of money and it was a special event for my family, and it was such...

On vacation we were out for a drive and found ourselves in Oxford, PA. Looking for a non-chain type place to eat we found the Sawmill Grill. The reviews looked good so we figured we'd give it a try. They had a good crowd for a Friday lunch but we were seated quickly in the upstairs section. A little too noisy for my wife. There was a loud group on one side and a very young child that couldn't get him mother's attention on the other side. Turning off her hearing aids resolved that issue. Service was quick and the food came out hot from the kitchen. I opted for the Bruhlwich. A Buffalo chicken breast between two waffles drizzled with syrup and powdered sugar. An interesting flavor combination that seemed to work. With each bite you could taste the waffle, syrup and hot sauce. My only issue was the dish was so heat hot that I had to let it sit to cool down a bit and the waffles got soggy with the syrup. It didn't effect the flavor at all and I ate every bite. It just made it a little messy cutting it. My wife had Grandma G's Homemade Chicken Salad Sandwich. Nice, solid chunks of chicken with good flavor. Both dishes came with their soon-to-be famous Sidewinder Fries. I'd venture to say that each side of fries was more potato than you'd get with a large baked potato. We ended up taking most of the fries home. If we ever find ourselves in Oxford again we know where to eat. There are other items on the menu that I...
