The Miller House Cafe & Brasserie

Great view. Limited but tastefull menu. Excellent service. Parking is a bureaucratic issue. Covid wasn't a big enough issue, politicians had to add their 2 cents to make matters worse.

The best view in the county!! We loved the wines we tried (Del-Gatto Vidal and Huff Estates Rosé) and our Local charcuterie board was delicious and so was the crème brulée cheesecake! The weather was perfect and we enjoyed the sunset view. What a perfect way to start our vacation here in PEC.

Had the Flambée maison. It was good but nothing to write home about especially at $18. The view is indeed spectacular and clearly the reason most people come here. Customer service was lovely and the local beer was fantastic.

A place with a gorgeous view of the lake. We ordered "The Local" and the "Smoked Local Whitefish". DELICIOUS! And the bacon marmalade that comes is DELECTABLE! Nice customer serve too. * But the beer wasn't cold. It was warm. * They need to figure out how better serve their plates. It's a place with delightful breeze because of the altitude. It was a time that the paper decoration of the plate threw our food because of a suddenly and stronger breeze and we needed to pickup the cheese, salami in the table, which unfortunately wasn't so hygienic to do it because of the design of the table... * The regular glasses are very stained and all scratched.

Would love to give this place 5 stars but they just missed the mark. Short wait to be seated as there are no reservations which was fine. Also only outdoor dining with apx 12 tables. Ordered the Brewhouse charcuterie board and the croque monsieur which took a little bit to come out but were both very tasty. View is also incredible. After we were still hungry so we ordered a flat bread. This took over half an hour to come out and was very underwhelming. Flatbread itself was very hard and chewy. We heard the people beside us saying the same thing. After that we asked for our bill and it took almost 20 minutes to come with the machine. The waitress said that they are all sharing one. She was very friendly and nice and believe the kitchen was just not up to par and very slow.

The only plus point of this location is the view; other than that, it has the slowest service and not many food choices on the menu. I got here before 4pm and there were 2 groups of seniors ahead of me in the lineup. One of the staff came to the waiting table and guided them to their table and then disappeared; to the extend that the senior couple in front of me went and sat down on the bench outside, waiting for her to come back. She came back after 15 15 minutes and got their and my number and put it on the list and disappeared again. We watched 2 groups finishing up their food and drinks and leave the restaurant. But, she never came to guide us to our table. Instead she was running around with the other waiting staff, literally doing nothing!!! By the time she eventually decided to come to us, there was a huge lineup behind me. I'm not sure if they are deliberately doing it as a marketing tool to create a huge line up and make it look like they are more popular than the restaurant on the other side of the road or they are severely understaffed! After more than 1 hour, I was led to my table, but again, it took them literally 20 minutes to bring me a menu! There is not many various or complicated options on the menu, a few flat breads, charcuterie and appetizers. So, I ordered a flatbread and waited forever for my food to arrive. Sometime in the middle of the 2 staff running around, one of them brought me a glass of water. I believe it was around 5:30 pm that they served my VERY SIMPLE flatbread. She asked me if I wanted another glass of water and went to bring me one, but by the time she brought me the next glass of water, I was already done with my food! I requested the bill and I told them I would rather leave sooner. But then again, it took her 10 minutes to bring me my bill! It was almost 6:00pm by the time I could escape that place! What is going on here? Is the owner keeping the restaurant understaffed as a marketing tool, or is too cheap to pay for more staff??!! I don't think the view is worth being stood up like this!

This is a cafe or brasserie, which means they do not serve mains or entrees. Coming here hungry is a problem as the items are nibbles and they are pretty expensive. The highlight of this place is the variety of beers they have on tap and the awesome view. The view is worth 5 stars, but price of the food is about 3 and drinks 4, so it's still a 4 stars place afterall. If you can get the extreme deep end tables, you'll be able to look out and have a great view of the lake (pretty much still Lake Ontario). As you can tell, you are paying for the really nice view. We waited more than an hour for a table as we were walk in customers. Do make sure if you drive, to park at designated places for the cafe customers or the hotel nearby or risk getting ticketed. You usually will need a pass to park everywhere else near here but if you can get a parking lot allocated for customers, that'll save you a lot of trouble. Also, it's free so don't bother paying for parking unless you are here for anything but the cafe. Do note that they are extremely busy on weekends and customers take their time to savour the view and enjoy their drinks, chat and relax, so don't expect to get a table quickly. Also, they tend to be understaffed so be patient with them, they will definitely call you out when it's your turn.

Was a very great experience. Such a beautiful view overlooking the lake below. It's great for the family, for dates, and other occasions. Great friendly staff, and amazing food!
