Historic Clifton Mill in Clifton, Ohio for Breakfast

Not far from Clifton Mill in Clifton, Ohio is where we as a couple got our start in marriage. However, we never knew of this being a restaurant and not sure if it was at the time. Several years ago, we learned of this and have never made it over. But on a very cold January day (2026) with negative 10-degree wild chills we decided to start our adventures for the day here. Now mind you, we had another place in mind also for dinner, so we split a meal. Our waitress was fantastic and our meal was delicious. The eggs were very custardy but done thoroughly, the sausage was also delicious. We tried their sausage gravy and although we ordered white toast, the wheat was also good. Please forgive the moving too fast. We are learning just little slow at it haha! For more information about the mill go to their website and information credit goes to Clifton Mill that is posted below. https://cliftonmill.com/about-us/ The first mill at this site was built in 1802 by Owen Davis, a Revolutionary War soldier and frontiersman miller. The mill was built in this location to take advantage of the natural power of the concentrated water funneled into the gorge. Owen Davis and his son-in-law, General Benjamin Whiteman also built a sawmill and a distillery. Soon a village known as Davis Mills sprang up around the mills. The Little Miami River powered five other mills that were built within a mile of Historic Clifton Mill: a woolen mill, sawmill, paper mill, barrel mill, and another grist mill. Historic Clifton Mill is the only one still standing. Around 1810 Davis sold his grist mill to Robert Patterson, father of the founders of NCR. Patterson renamed the village Cliff Town, had it surveyed into lots and officially made a town whose name was shortened to Clifton. Clifton grew rapidly and at one point had a population three times that of today with blacksmith shops, a butcher shop, two churches, a school, a hotel, two grocers, weavers, shoemakers, paper makers, and more. Due to Robert Patterson being made Quartermaster, Clifton played a part in the War of 1812. Historic Clifton Mill provided corn meal for federal troops from this part of Ohio, while Patterson’s woolen mill provided cloth and buttons for uniforms. Robert Patterson sold Historic Clifton Mill to the Armstrong family who ran the mill for more than 20 years. Then three generations of the Preston family ran the mill until 1948. Many years and several owners later, the Satariano family purchased the mill to preserve such an historic and beautiful piece of property.
