This is a cute and casual winery in Geneva, near a couple of bed and breakfasts and air bnb options. The wine is OK, but we were still there twice in 2 days because it was walkable from our air bnb and the price point is very reasonable, so while we had nicer wine during our stay, we liked Old Mill well enough to hang out. It is a bit dark and throws dive wine bar vibes. I found it fun and laid back. They have a nice looking food menu - I only ordered the spinach and artichoke stuffed potato skins, because I love skins, but since I don't eat bacon, they're not always the best choice. The veggie option was delicious, and they came out hot and cheesy. I found the wine very sweet (and I'm a sweeter wine gal). Also note - they close pretty early! I think we went in around 7 on a Friday and the kitchen had already closed, and we were the last people served drinks at the bar. I could be a little off on my times, but it was not late for "big city people," and was consistent with the area.

This is one hidden gem near Geneva on the lake. They've got multiple patios and plenty of free parking. Only disadvantages occasionally a train goes by and you can't hear anything because the train tracks are less than 20 feet from the restaurant. The food was good.The service was outstanding.The price was extremely reasonable

What an interesting first experience! We were introduced to the Old Mill Winery by a family member and decided to check it out for lunch on a Saturday. There are three parts of this review to consider. First of all is the atmosphere. It's a blend of casual-comfy that isn't trying to be too fussy. Indoors has several seating areas; all were busy even on a rainy day. Outdoors, they have two seating areas. A kind of a courtyard patio just off the parking lot and another a deck which has half of the seating area covered by a roof. This turned out to be spectacular because it rained most of our visit. Consistent with the "casual-comfy vibe," the outdoor deck seating was really enjoyable and casual, reinforced by the plastic tables and chairs. The deck has a substantial cooking station at one end, which is kind of fun to watch them grill and prepare things in addition to their interior kitchen. The deck is on the road side of the restaurant which made for regular vehicle noise. if you want a really quiet wine bar atmosphere, the traffic was a little bit of a distraction, but for us with a impromptu Saturday lunch with family, the afternoon was lovely. Coming to service, we were greeted by a friendly face and were quickly seated; we had the privilege of being taken care of by Madison, a remarkable young woman who was extremely attentive, a good conversationalist, and, upon getting to know her little bit, has thought deeply and with great insight about her career pathway. She was attentive without hovering and had an uncanny sixth sense about when to appear for drinks or next courses or the check. Now the crown jewel: the food! The menu was wide ranging and substantial. Unusually robust for a local winery. We were taken by the "Buffalo burger with blue cheese" special and three of our four guests ordered it. The fourth ordered the tropical salad with grape vinaigrette. When the hamburgers arrived, we were blown away. The presentation was attractive, the brioche style bun was delicious, and the preparation of the hamburger and its accoutrements made for an outstanding hamburger. Two of us ordered zucchini fries with a third ordering french fries. The zucchini fries could've used more time in the deep fryer as they were a little mushy; the french fries were spectacular. The tropical salad was ordered as a half salad and even that serving size was substantial. The side loaf of bread and grape vinaigrette dressing were tremendous. Ironically, none of us had any wine on this particular visit, but we are all interested in going back to sample other menu items in the future. If you're looking for a reliable, casual, and charming place for a drink or a meal, the Old Mill Winery was a good choice for us.

Very accommodating and friendly service, especially for our large group. Dining room inside is comfortable and spacious with antique type decor. Basic menu with something for everyone which was helpful as we had vegetarians, vegan, and GF diners with us. It's a big menu with a lot of great options. Food was solid overall, we especially appreciated the GF pizza crust option. Ohio wine is always on the sweeter side and their wine was typically sweet, at least from what we sampled. They make a wine slushie that sounded great- I didn't try it but the folks in our group raved about it! They also had a gorgeous outdoor seating too. Solid stop.

The Old Mill is still charming as ever. I went and had dinner with friends on a Tuesday night. We were seated immediately. But...the service was slow as molasses. Granted, they were short staffed and our wonderful waitress was busting her butt to keep up. It took about an hour from the time we sat down until our food arrived. So, don't go here if you're looking for a quick in and out bite. I had to knock off a star for that. The food was great, cooked to our liking and reasonably priced. The outdoor grill smelled amazing the entire time! We didn't have any wine, just beer, lol! (I've had the wines before and they're nice. They have a lot of sweet Ohio varietals.) And they have a craft brewed root beer which was tasty! Again, I recommend this winery if you've got time to kill and you're not too hangry!
