Grist Mill Garden Cafe - GRAND RIVERS

We had the BarBQ plate with slaw, potato salad, roll w/strawberry butter and Diet Coke. Delicious food . Just as one would expect from any of Patti’s kitchens. The waitresses are veery friendly . Good out-door dining.

This place is amazing food is great and the ladies are some of the friendly people around so if you are in the area check them out.

Patti's is a great local experience. It's more than just a restaurant. It is a nice little village with mini golf, small shops, moonlight tasting, a hotel and more. It's nice to wonder from one shop to another to see the interesting items everyone has. During Christmas, the lights display is almost overwhelming, in a good way. The food is usually really good and the service is on point. They are known for their delicious 2 inch pork chop. Your flowerpot bread and strawberry butter are amazing and their dessert menu will skip your entree all together and go straight for the good stuff. The only drawback is the pricing, as some menu items and most articles are overpriced in stores. We recently bought strawberry butter and they calculated an excess of $14 for 12 ounces. Last time I tried the Tropical Piston and I wasn't a fan. The salsa didn't complicate the pork chop as much as I thought. The pork chop level is much better.

Had lunch at the Grist Mill Café in Patti 1880 settlement, it was very good. I had the Pulled Pork Sandwich that had a really good smoke ring and taste. The bbq sauce was a really good sweet and had a molasses taste. The woman tried the chicken salad on Croissant and she really likes it, she also had the side of the potato salad, but she wasn't crazy about the big boiled egg in it.

On the way to Chattanooga for lunch. Had a little wait to get a table for two, but not bad. Just enough time to walk around and stretch our legs. We ate in the “family” room, which was beautifully decorated and cozy. I had the Kentucky Hot Brown and enjoyed it very much. The chips with him tasted homemade and were delicious. My friend got a club sandwich and salad and could eat only half of her sandwich. The bread was great. To dessert, my friend had seen dustcake they enjoyed. I have the coconut ring. I knew there would be a lot of success, but I was hoping for a little more cake under all this trouble. I was a little disappointed, but it tasted good if I scraped off about two thirds of the way. Good to stop.
