Dutch Mill Cafe – Antonito

Dutch Mill Cafe

For those long time readers of the blog, you know that I am a sucker for a good sign when looking for a great locally owned restaurant. Well, in the lovely downtown of Antonito I was drawn like a moth to a flame by the sign for the Dutch Mill Cafe.

The old style of sign towered on the top of the main strip and I knew exactly where I would make my stop for lunch! The Dutch Mill Cafe is popular for their breakfast burritos and other Mexican specialties but they had already sold me with that big sign!

The Food

Now to the important part…the Food! I got to the Dutch Mill Cafe a little late for breakfast so I settled in for lunch instead. One look at the menu and I knew I had to order the Famous Chili Burger. It did have famous in the name right!. The Famous Chili Burger is an open faced burger on a bun smothered with green chili. It also comes with fries or mashed potato’s. I went with the fries and they throw those on top of the burger too as part of the smothering.

The Famous Chili Burger was really good. The burger was thick, maybe a half pound, and really flavorful. Like it came off the grill in my own backyard. The green chili wasn’t too spicy but had a nice rich flavor to it. It tasted very fresh. The chili soaked into the bun making for a perfect bite of slightly soggy bread. I definitely had to eat this one with a knife and fork and every bite was as good as the first!

I really enjoyed this burger and my stop at the Dutch Mill Cafe. It was also really crowded for a mid week lunch so you know it is a popular spot for locals and passers by like myself. If you find your self in Antonito, Give the Dutch Mill Café a shot!

Finding the Dutch Mill Cafe

The Dutch Mill Cafe is located at 401 Main Street in downtown Antonito. I didn’t notice a parking lot but there was plenty of street parking available on Main Street for an easy walk to the restaurant.
