The Mill

Love this place! Owners are awesome people! Staff are awesome as well!Great caffeine options! Local bakery stuff to munch on! Lots of space to remote work or socialize! Lots of social events to partake in! And they have an awesome selection of brews on tap to try!

Did not try the food or coffee but I did go in expecting to grab coffee but went in sitting down reading a comic and drinking a beer ! Amazing atmosphere very settle but out there . Awesome staff with the great service and comfortably of talking with them. Overall nice little hang out spot even to just read a comic with a beer next to you .

Staff is friendly. Lots of drink choices. A great place to hang out. There are a number of drink options as well as snacks, most provided by Stick boy bakery. They allow dogs so you can meet furry friends too. Coffee is really good. Fresh brewed and not bitter.

I love it here. Been coming here since 2015 and it has not lost its initial charm. From ripping hairs over high school chemistry homework to grabbing a drink with friends, board game night to late-night (8pm) bible study, the mill is the best. Life can get chaotic and social interactions can become a rarity. Regardless, the mill IS your neighborhood coffeeshop.

I stopped in The Mill today. It was my first of many visits. We greeted and served by the most polite gentleman named Robert. He was so knowledgeable about the coffees and made the perfect suggestion since we had no clue what we wanted. He’s a huge asset to your business. Thank you Robert !

A great place for a meeting, getting work done solo with great crafted drinks right there at your fingertips. In line waiting to get a gift card for a gift and staff new orders and names of patrons. Asked if they wanted iced or hot but otherwise knew all 3 orders in front of me. A true small town gem!!

Great place to work remotely and have some coffee. I wish the refills were free and they used ceramic mugs, not the paper cups, for people staying there. Less waste that way.

Absolute favorite place to get some work done. Perfect 3rd space. They do community events and meet ups which is nice. They have daily specials on beverages, and if beer is your thing, they have an enormous tap set up downstairs. I've only been for the coffee and to work, but I do know a solid beer list when I see one. I should mention that if you're going to work, the tables are a rustic raw wood, so not remotely even or flat. So you're going to want a mouse pad. Or a notebook of some kind to smooth everything out.

Love The Mill! Cinderella latte is my fave fall drink here. Customer service is percent, it is super cozy, and there are so many places to sit and get some work done if needed on your computer!

A cute coffee shop and bar! A great spot in downtown Fuquay near other shops and restaurants. A great place to meet up with friends for a drink or work on your computer. The shop also has outdoor seating for when it's nice and a few TVs. I tried a coffee drink off their fall drink menu. It was called Cinderella's pumpkin. It was really good. I really liked the vibe here. Staff was super chill and welcoming. Small town charm at its finest. I for sure will be back!

I happened to be in downtown Fuquay for work one morning and knew I needed coffee. I'd been to The Mill for one of their past art vendor fairs, but hadn't gotten anything to drink. It was around 10am and there were people inside, but nothing crazy. The barista was friendly and greeted me, asked if there was anything I needed help with. I did ask for his recommendation on syrup flavors for a latte and decided on an iced, nonfat cinnamon sugar latte. It was just right! Sweet, but not too sweet, and I could taste the espresso. I also got a 1/2 off scone (which he warmed up for me at my request) from the day before and it was still soft and tasty. It appears you can also get wine and beer depending on the time of day. Friendly town, good coffee, I'll stop by again!

This quaint little spot is perfect for a quick meeting or a pick me up. The airy feeling is inviting and warm and the staff makes you want to stay! Enjoy free wi-fi and work the day away!

Quaint and cozy! Coffee is good and cheaper than other big name place. The main thing here is location and entertainment!! Good bands and good spot to look out window in super comfy chairs!!

Wow this place is COOL! The space is much bigger than it seems on the outside and has such a calming interior. The turtle latte was one of the best lattes I've ever had. The bartenders were extremely nice & friendly as well. For my gluten free folks, they had a few ciders you could get from the bar in cans as well as a decent wine selection. I love the Golden Arrow cider, definitely worth the try. Not sure if the latte was gluten free but I did not have a reaction so it's at least wheat free. My husband really enjoyed the beer selection. Lots of local beers to try both on tap and canned. We will definitely make this a regular spot for us!

Great breakfast spot that just opened. Their mimosas are tasty and they have gluten free options.

I have been to The Mill a couple of times now and have enjoyed both the coffee side and the "adult" side of it. They have a good variety of syrup flavors and drinks to choose from. While I enjoyed the drink that I ordered, it wasn't my favorite. I struggled to find any flavor last the chocolate sauce. I would definitely go back for coffee drinks, just would get something without chocolate in it. The "adult" side of The Mill has a great selection of beers on tap, wine and cocktails. I got the Hop drop and roll by NoDa that was on top and it was really good. They don't have hip in the name for nothing. lol All in all I have enjoyed both visits there and will definitely be back to visit both sides.

Yummmy. I only had a chai, but they had lavender syrup and YUMMM. I love lavender in ANYTHING! I noticed they serve foods and spirits. Haven't had a chance to try as yet. I will definitely return soon. The scene looks pretty chill. The human who made my chai was responsive, quick, and very nice. I willlll return very soon though.

Love coming here to work and enjoy a coffee. The ambiance is friendly and chill. I love the music they play. If you're going there to work and need a quiet place, this may not be it. It gets a little loud. But if you can use noice cancelling headphones, you're golden.

If you want to be ignored come on in!! I was completely ignored so I charged my phone then left for brus on main where they smile at you when you walk in! I'm actually still charging at the moment.

Love the mill, I've been going here for a few years. Love their hot coffees and chai teas, and they almost always have some pastries on hand. Great beer selection, and even better service! Food trucks tend to be outside on weekends as well as live music. My more recent visits I have noticed there have been cool mystery books you can purchase. They are wrapped and have an overall description of the book where the cover is, I thought that was cool and will definitely get one next time.

Okay so the coconut almond Frappuccino was beyond amazing. The food is from stick boy Bakery. Got a few items half off for being a day old and honestly shouldn't have gotten it, ended up throwing them out because they were so very stale and dry. Nothing worse than a dry stale scone. The cheesecake was amazing though

Enjoy starting the day with a coffee and pastry or ending the day with a beer and entertainment at The Mill. The staff are also

My go to NC coffee shop. Love this place and staff is awesome. Can't wait to go back.

Awesome local beer and wine selection. Fun vibe to sit with friends. No food, but they have food trucks often and there are many other downtown food options with short walks if you're hungry.

Coffee here is always good. Upstairs room for computer geeks that sit there for hours . Bakery items are paltry. Wish they had more of a selection . Good people work here. Jim Iocca

Always helpful and friendly staff. Nice atmosphere to chill and relax. They have a nice upstairs and large menu. They have special events that are a lot of fun.

Great local coffee shop. Environment is good for remote work but you may want to bring noise-cancelling headphones in case people beside you are extra chatty or a group is meeting up. I love that you can order food from Anna's Pizza next door and bring it in (though you can't bring your own drinks, for obvious reasons). Staff is always friendly, even when there is a line of people waiting for drinks.

Simply put, The Mill is a great cafe. It has a homey feel to it and everyone that's ever made me a drink has done a phenomenal job. I do like the social distancing set up as well as hand sanitizer availability. However, I saw an employee not wearing a mask the last time I visited, which is unfortunate and the reason I have not stepped foot in the cafe since the summer. Please enforce mask wearing as much as possible. This cafe attracts a diverse base. If an employee is seen not wearing a mask, and wearing it properly, it is a big turn off to many who want to support local businesses who follow proper Covid precautions.

I found The Mill this weekend and I'm so thankful! This place is amazing! A great selection of beer on tap and a very friendly staff. It's a very happening place and great for parents with kids. My new Saturday hangout for a beer with friends.

Friendly staff and a wonderful atmosphere! You can get coffee, or alcohol and make the experience what you want! Some even come here to study. Would definitely come back soon!

Came in on a rainy day for a hot coffee and sweet treat. I was noticed immediately and greeted by the bartender at the coffee bar. I ordered an Americano and a homemade chocolate chip cookie. Both were fantastic!! The place itself has so much charm. Made my experience that much better. Check it out.

Pretty pricey for coffee, but a cute trendy hang out space with coffee and beer. I also like the fact that they utilize their space for other things than selling coffee. Especially the mystery events or when they have craft shows or sales of any kind. Also enjoy when they block off the side street and bring in the food trucks for hanging out at night. Coffee is great!

Boyfriend & I decided to check out The Mill this weekend. We walked in and headed back to the bar area to sample and order a few beers. Tonights special: $3.50 Bombshell beers and you got to keep the glass (Boyfriend was not happy that I was collecting another glass). Started off with a Bombshell Coconut Stout followed by a Double Barley Gourd Rocker. Boyfriend ordered a Deep River 4042 Stout followed by a Bold Rock Cider. We loved our beer selections so many local options! We were in the bar area to start off with then by beer no 2 decided to head upstairs. A band was playing, it was a bit tough to understand what he was saying but it was not overpowering. I loved the exposed brick and light fixtures! If you do not drink beer, the first bar offers coffee options along with cakes slices. I have not experienced anything like this around the Fuquay Varina & Holly Springs area so Boyfriend & I really enjoyed it. We will definitely be back!

Absolutely love this place. My wife, daughter and I bring a board game and order pizza from next door from time to time.

Great vibe for studying or just meeting with a friend to talk. I do wish there were a couple more food options, each time I go the case is almost empty. Coffee is delicious. Staff members are always kind and attentive.

Stopped here while traveling through the area. Needed a place to open computer and do some zoom meetings and other work before traveling on. Perfect place for that. Two stories so you can find a relatively quiet area. There is background music but not too loud. Like an Internet cafe but not. Good coffee, great local beer selection, friendly staff. Food selection is limited as there is no kitchen but a selection of pastries and some quiches. Atmosphere was very nice. Sorry I can't be here for Friday trivia.

The Mill is a neat little spot. I like the ambiance but the temperature is just really too warm. It was 90 degrees outside and it felt just about the same inside. The employee said he wasn't allowed to turn the air down but wished he could. I feel kinda bad for the employees. I would be back if I knew I wouldn't sit there sweating in the summer.

Come in and get an ice tea, hot tea, flavored coffee or a beer or wine! Whatever you like after a long day at the office! The staff is eager to suggest a flavor for you and always there to help! It may not be Cheer's, but it's a great community spot!! Give them a try, if you haven't already!

The Manager, Anna is very very rude. My fiancé and I came to the mill to see his brother perform. We stood in front of the performer for three minutes wearing masks, and she quickly came over to TELL us to sit down, and that we need to buy something if we want to stay in the facility. So, I asked her the reason why we are not allowed to stand up and she abruptly told us that it is because of Covid and that she didn't have to tell us why. Then said, by the way tables are only for paying customers. I'm sure there will be more, as I am not even done with my coffee yet. If I could put zero stars I would.

The Mill is the perfect spot to come relax, and enjoy a refreshing beverage. Whether beer, wine, or even coffee, there is definitely something for everyone. They do not serve food aside from a few snacks, but you're able to bring in pizza from the joint next door. During the nicer weather there is the possibility that a food truck will make an appearance, and who doesn't love yummy food truck food!! The atmosphere can be loud on a Friday evening, but it's not ridiculous. It is quiet enough during the week that you can snag a spot on their comfy chairs and do some HW. Depending on the day, if you're wanting more of a private area, the upstairs is a great spot. Bars can get so loud that you're unable to carry a conversation with the person next to you, but I haven't had that problem. Hours of operation are 9AM to 10PM, which I think caters to both coffee lovers and beer drinkers. I have not had the opportunity to visit during the day but I can still confidently say that The Mill a great spot in Fuquay.

I used to LOVE this place! My last visit, there was a different barista there than I've seen before. Simply put, she was incredibly rude and disrespectful the entire time. I was so disappointed. This is where my partner and I had our first date over 2 years ago, and we went back to enjoy a date together. We had to leave after 10 minutes because she interrupted our conversation to tell my partner to put her mask back on (as we were sitting at a table, she was still finishing her drink AND we were 6 feet apart from other guests) and wouldn't leave us alone. She went out of her way to get in our faces, yell, threaten to call the police, for absolutely no reason. I'm honestly still in shock that someone could be that rude to paying, loyal customers. I really used to love this place and even recommended it to plenty of friends! It saddens me that the employees have become so disrespectful.

Very expensive for coffee, but it's good. Nice hang out and they do lots of events at night too.

A place to get great tasting coffee but with poor customer service and a ridiculous no outside beverage policy that is enforced upon patrons. After waiting patiently in line for over 20 minutes without even ordering our drinks yet, my wife decided to get a cup of warm lemon water from across the street while I remained in line. When she returned shortly thereafter, the barista had the nerve to stop what he was doing and inform my wife that she must leave the establishment and wait for me outside because she brought in an outside beverage (lemon water). Not permitting outside beverages is understandable if people come into the establishment just to take up seating and do not purchase anything but to enforce this ridiculous policy on a paying customer makes absolutely no logical sense and is downright rude. Needless to say, The Mill has lost my business indefinitely.

Great environment in general. Baristas just want your money though. We were told we had to buy something in order to "keep our table". Also tried to make us pay two dollars for usually free water.

A very nice, clean, modern and local drink stop. I stopped in for coffee and also found a local bakery selection of scones and cinnamon rolls. The view is awesome and quaint. The menu also shows a selection of beers on tap. The atmosphere is relaxing and fun. Look forward to stopping in for a beer next visit.

My son love it. Nice calm atmosphere . Clean with friendly staff. Coffee taste great.

Dig this place to stop and have a beer or a hot chocolate while shopping in Fuquay. A great place and great vibe

I really love this coffee shop. It's big - 2 stories but the top floor is cozy with brick walls, beautiful wood tables and room to work remote. (this is very important to me because I work remote 100%). They serve beer, wine and coffee (my three favorite beverages) and baked goods from Stickboy Bakery across the street. There's a nice mixed crowd (remote workers, hipsters, moms with kids) and oh, yeah, the coffee's great. This is my favorite coffee shop to hang out in ​Fuquay-Varina.

The environment is great, but the staff is very obnoxious. They kept yelling randomly making it very difficult to focus on anything other than them. When approached politely if they could quiet down slightly the response was "Well here's the thing, this is a bar" as if that makes it ok for the staff, specifically the Manager Anna, to be disruptive and disrespectful to the customers. Do not recommend.

The #1 spot for coffee and beer in a beautiful building. This is a great community hub in Fuquay-Varina. I personally love to get some work done here but plenty of people show up for the community, delicious baked goods, awesome coffee, and events like live music. The staff are friendly and charming and I've never had a less than fantastic experience here. I would choose this over Starbucks any day. Get the London Fog. It's awesome.

This is a pretty cool pub. Very clean and new. I would have given it 5 stars if they had a food offering, all they have is chips.

Enjoyed my time here. Interesting to have a coffee bar as you walk in front door and then walk back to a bar with wall of taps. Good selection of beers with a cider or two at reasonable pricing. It can get a little loud especially on Friday with live music. There is a food truck on side street which can be brought in as The Mill does not serve food. Good service.

This place is a bit of a joke...Arrogant New York attitude from the barmaid along with New York prices for beer and wine. $8 for a draft beer....seriously? ..To top the cake off with a cherry the miniscule wine serving at $15 a glass was served in a frat party plastic beer cup....That's really classy Clark..... The Niche Wine bar in Holly Springs gets it right. Better everything.....The folks at fainting Goat Brewery have reasonable beer prices and reasonable attitudes and make sure you know you are welcome...

My husband and I decided to explore Fuquay Varina on a weekend evening. What a pleasant surprise to come across The Mill! A very upbeat place to hang out with a group of friends or just an intimate evening with your partner. There is a bar area in the back and couches and chairs closer to the front of the store with a counter also in the front where you can order a small sampling of desserts, a variety of coffees, and hot organic teas. There is also an upstairs room where you can sit and enjoy drinks. They were fresh flowers on our table as we sat in the front corner of the store on sleek comfy chairs. The organic tea was delicious, and for only two dollars you can't beat the price for unlimited refills. My husband and I will definitely be back for a nice evening out to chat. Staff is very friendly and the place is very clean and upbeat with a trendy ambience.

Great place to meet a friend, grab a drink, play a board game. Staff is always friendly and they often have fund things like live music and trivia night. Definitely worth your time.

Just moved into town and I am so glad that this is my new local coffee shop. I'm a writer and love to sit in Kool environments and right. Needless to say I will be doing a lot of writing in this place. It's also a good place to meet with people and chat. Or bring a good book and sit down and read. I'm not a drinker but they also have a section of the shop that has beer on tap. Fun environment with lots of good energy.
