They are additionally located off of County Route 26 on the snowmobile trail. For anyone who likes to snowmobile, the restaurant makes for a great pit stop to unload or load gear. They have a large parking lot that’s perfect for tractor trailers, commercial trucks, buses, light trucks and cars.

Then there is, of course, the gas. The Grist Mill has Sunoco Gasoline and Diesel fuel, and they accept most major credit cards and a good amount of the major fuel cards.

The food at The Grist Mill is classic diner fare, done really well. For breakfast, we recommend The 18 Wheeler, a very filling combination of two eggs, two pancakes, two slices of bacon, and two sausage links. It’s under $12 for all of that!
