When I first saw Mill Street Brewery there was a line to get in. I almost skipped it, I personally hate waiting in line for restaurants, and I was a little concerned since I just had some not so great beer at Granite a few hours before. But I'm glad I got in line... it only took about 10 minutes to get in and there were plenty of tables I just think they were busier then they usually were. The place is really big with a huge outdoor patio area. Once we sat down the waiter came to our table right away... we were not given a beer list so my finacée just asked for the sampler and I ordered a Tankhouse Ale since that was the first thing I saw. Once he walked away we grabbed a beer list off the table next to us and quickly saw we could have ordered some other really good sounding beers. Once he came back with the beers we were still looking over the menu for what to get to eat... looking back now I wish we would have ordered right then because he didn't come back to the table for awhile.
Before I get into the food let me just say that the Tankhosue Ale is tasty stuff, like Luke A said it's solid. The sampler my finacée ordered had "the big four", Tankhouse, The Organic, Belgium, and the Coffee porter. The Tankhosue was the best but the Coffee Porter was also very good.
Finally we were able to place our order for a couple appetizers (Crab Cakes & Brie Quesadillas). Both of these were excellent. While we were there I also tried a sampler of the ESB, which was ok and the IPA which was very good. Mill Street is a good place in my book, I liked the beer and food and the environment although busy was pretty nice.
