Waterwheel Café, Bakery & Bar

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.

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.

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!

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.

Good coffee paired with a great bakery. Excellent outdoor atmosphere. Interesting American/Vietnamese concept in a neat historical setting. Very friendly and welcoming. The lemon lavender muffin and raspberry cheese croissant were exceptional.

A cozy, quaint eatery that does well to use the charm of the Poconos and old Americana as a strength. I came here for Brunch, and had an omelet packed with brie, sun dried tomatoes, and spinach; it was filling and satisfying. While the dining space is limited it only took twenty minutes for my group of five to get a seat.

It is cramped so if you like to have a lot of space I would skip this place, but if that isn't an issue for you I suggest giving this place a visit.

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.

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!

Excellent coffees and bakery! Got to do a self guided tour of the waterwheel operation. Beautiful wood structure with simplistic analog operations that were highly functional and used simple water flow with gravity for operation. I would love to have seen it in the days of operation.
