Quiet atmosphere (no TVs) for conversation, courteous staff, good food.
The place was very clean and look fantastic. The server was friendly, informative, and attentive to our needs.
Very nice. Small . nice atmosphere. The food was good
The food is always excellent. I love the crab omelette
Other than being just a bit too loud for conversation at our table, everything was wonderful.
Nice decor inside but really nice outside on a warm day.

This is a fun and lovely place to meet a friend for lunch. I enjoy the outdoor seating when the weather is warm, as you are surrounded by gorgeous flowers. Inside is a little noisy, but still a good place to go.
Food was delicious, each of us found something we loved on the menu. Sitting outside was delightful. A super day to celebrate 2 birthdays!
We both had the open face crab sandwich, that was delicious. She had salad side and I had fruit side. The sandwich serving is generous and the service is efficient. Great Lunch!
I came in on my lunch hour and had to be back to work within 50 min. We got in and out even on a busy day
We had a nice server, the ambience was good and the food was AMAZING.
Unfortunately, the food was mediocre, not as good as we've had in the past. Service was poor, we did not see the server after our food was delivered. I had to flag the host to get some water. Very disappointed.
Atmosphere was lovely, all the servers were polite and helpful, and the food was very good.

The steak salad was yummy & the steak was done perfectly! Thank you!
Excellent food & service. Attentive but not hovering. Enjoyed a delicious lunch with a friend. Would recommend Windmill Bistro to everyone.
Great food, attentive service and order was 100% correct including all my modifications.
Our server was sensitive with our time to dine offering an extra minute to chat before ordering. She hit every point of service flawlessly. The food, as always, was flawless all the way down to the plate presentation. By far the best French Onion soup for MILES.
The service and food were amazing. Quality ingredients cooked to perfection.
Learned to make a reservation and got right in. Very nice waitresses that are starting to recognize us after half a dozen visits. Do wish that the crab sandwich had a little more crab like it used too.We usually order the same things.
Awesome breakfast. Everything was great. Best crab omelet we've had. Super service.
Excellent service as always, Juanita was our server and she is wonderful, friendly and took care of us all the time . We love to come to this place often.
We left a message for a reservation, having been advised to call ahead on the weekend. While they didn't get the message by the time we got there, they did get us right in. The only reason they did not get an excellent in the quality of the food is that the crab was a little skimpy on the sandwich that we always get.
The place is great. Atmosphere and the family touch along with fresh fresh fresh food make it a repeat! The owner and the family all work here, it has a wonderful garden and garden supply that you can wonder through for hours. They have a beautiful wedding venue not to be rivaled by anyone local.
Service was excellent. Everyone was pleased. We will schedule another event there again.
Service was great, food was bland, hard to have a conversation because of room being so loud
Very pleased with lunch. Three dollars for a soda is a little expensive. We did sit outside in the nice shady corner. Waitress was very efficient. Food was excellent. Will be returning but just not ordering three dollars.
The gardens are beautiful to stroll thru while waiting for a table. There were empty tables so I guess they were short staffed, because my wait was half hour for a late lunch on Friday.
Menu unbelievable. Wife and i had difffernt salads sandwiches and both super. Onion soup also super.
We ate on the patio and the flowers, etc were beautiful. Gorgeous surroundings and the wait staff did a great job.
Service it's amaizing, caring staff and friendly. The food: outstanding, they present their dishes beautifully and serve food portions too. We had corn beef hash and breakfast burrito, all was very good.
The crab open face sandwich was excellent, as was the sweet potato fries.
Serving was large, presentation was great, but taste wasn't as good as I expected.In my opinion the meat in our sandwiches was overcooked.
I love a crab melt. The one I ordered didn't seem to have much crab on it, especially since it was one of the more expensive items on the lunch menu. A lot of the other meals looked very good.
The oven was out, so we ordered other items than we would normally get. Food was very good and they had reserved a table for us, since we called ahead. Can get really busy on weekends. The gals recognize us now, so that is a plus.
Excellent as always-miss not being able to dine there during dinner hour.
Food is great and the restaurant is cute. The service is excellent. The sandwiches are very tasty with a choice of several and salad are yummy. And the nursery is a great place to visit while there.
We both had the 3 item lunch combo. French onion soup was rich, flavorful and crusty cheesy as anticipated. Both salads were excellent. Each chose the turkey club. It was fresh and tasty but could have used a bit more mayo or even an aoili twist.
I had special dietary needs and they were able to accommodate me.
Great food and beautiful presentation. Service was most satisfactory. They know how to please the customer.
Our server was very knowledgeable and could inform us of the menu.
We really enjoy this restaurant! The staff is friendly and professional. The food is consistently delicious with great presentation. The warm and friendly ambiance keeps us returning.
Great service and fabulous food reasonably priced.
The tea room feeling atmosphere was sweet. Food is really. Reservation is helpful in the busier hours but we were able to get seated with ease.
Neat & clean with top shelf food PROFESSIONALLY served. You need to find this place !
beautiful setting, lots of shopping after you eat...
good food and pleasant staff.
Food is always great. However, this time, portions were much smaller and prices have gone up!!
Windmill Bistro is a charming restaurant that provides a very relaxing dining experience. The variety of menu items is sure to suit all tastes. Very well-balanced and fresh. Added bonus is that the property also includes several other points-of-interest, such as a full nursery, spa, and tea shop!
We had some specific wants, like the sweet potato fries with less salt and a little less done. They did well, although there were fewer fries this time.
The food was wonderful and the atmosphere was very relaxing
This place is great! Well run, organized, friendly, and efficient. Our server Jake was fantastic, catering to our every need.
Good food and Jake was attentive and professional
Limited hours
We feel we had to wait longer than necessary when there were a couple tables available.
The server was kind, attentive & informative with the menu. The food was excellent. Love the atmosphere.
good food and service
Very friendly staff. Service is a little title slow but I think they just want you to sit and visit for awhile.
Light and airy neighborhood restaurant. They REMEMBER you ! Moderate pricing for HIGH QUALITY food ! The servers listen and they check back. I will travel to dine here !
We love the Windmill Bistro! The food is always excellent. Live music on friday makes for an awesome date night. Our server seemed a little distracted at times, and it took a while to get our bill, but otherwise a great experience!
Excellent food and service. The atmosphere is very pleasant with the flower gardens in full bloom.
the gardening atmosphere is fun! Food is good and service fast.
We thought the wait was too long considering the time of day and the amount of people they had at the time.
We were made to wait without reservations for 35 minutes even though there were empty tables and then seated at one of those tables that sat empty the whole time we were waiting. Unbelievable
Great server, very friendly and welcoming.
Always love the food and service.
Ambience was casual yet charming. The wait staff very friendly and the food was fabulous. The bonus of live music made the evening perfect. Definitely a return visit is in order!
I entertain at restaurants at least once a week usually at smaller non-chain spots. Windmill is a go-to location when I want high quality food and service. Every time I am there I wonder why I don't go there more often !!
Waited a bit too long for meal, however, they were busy which is a good sign
Both food and service is always excellent.
Food and service was wonderful
The food was excellent and our waitress Melissa was the best!!
Good service and food!
Seated right away, service was excellent and the food was fabulous. I took someone that had never been before and they were impressed. I will certainly be going back.
Ambiance, personnel, food.
atmosphere is excellent, especially when able to use the outside garden dining
quiet enough to visit, pleasant surroundings, very good food.
The wait was a bit long, but the grounds are GORGEOUS!OH, and don't order an Irish Coffee...they don't know how to make it. Food was excellent!
Great restaurant
Food, service and setting are excellent.
Food and service always consistently good.
One of my very favorite places to have lunch.
Enjoyed the music very much
Each of us boxed up half of our orders: fish tacos and BLT.
patio was beautiful
Nice calming environment. We chose to eat inside and viewed the gardens after lunch.
Food was delicious, service was efficient and friendly, and the outside dining area was beautiful.
Nice setting, polite help, good food.
Was a bit slow getting our food.
The food ( this time) was really great and the service as well. We were happy we tried again ( the food) . Thank you!
The place is a real find in Sumner. Do not miss it!
Food is always great, freshly made and many good choices for every type of appetite. I have never been disappointed in the food or the service every time I visit. I have introduced several people to this restaurant and they all agree it's a great choice. It's especially delightful eating outside on the deck surrrounded by gardens on a nice sunny day.
Melissa was our server and she was great!
The food was great. Our waitress a bit aloof, however.
We have been there several times for breakfast, and every time it is amazing!
They had a large party of very noisy boisterous people, and because they have no drapes or other window coverings, the sound was deafening!
Enjoyed the food and the outside eating area.
LOVE THE FOOD CHOICES AND THE FRIENDLY STAFF AND ATMOSPHERE
We got there 20 minutes before they closed. They did say that we could be served but we felt rushed and didn't have enough time to enjoy ourselves.
good food, charming setting and excellent service. Our server was very patient with our large party.
Enjoyed the beautiful garden for dinner. Had a musician playing. Very relaxing dinner.
lovely outdoor dining setting.....excelklent food and service
The food is always great, and the people who work there are so nice, and attentive.
Fabulous customer service --A++
We have always loved coming to the windmill to celebrate our birthdays, but this time the food was just ok and the service was slow, took a while for our food to come and when we were done - we put our plates on another table to open the presents,
Great atmosphere, great attentive wait staff, and great food.
MY 95 year old friend could not stop talking about our lunch and visit.
We were seated at the bar which made hard for us to visit, plus there were a lot if people including servers constantly walking behind us. Then the oven wasn't working so the one item I had planned to enjoy - crab sandwich - was not available. My second choice Asian pear salad and chicken walnut salad were ok, but not extraordinary. We had to ask for salt and pepper.
Had to wait while very busy but worth it. Food great. Visiting from indiana.
We had friends visiting from San Diego. The weather was beautiful so we were able to sit outdoors. They enjoyed it very much. We have enjoyed coming to the Windmill for many years and recently moved to Sumner so will be visiting more often. Don't know what the bill total was as our guests insisted on paying. We did have $25. coupon.
Very nice restaurant. Clean, great food.
The chop salad and French onion soup were excellent.
The owner's are over the top in service, food quality, and consistency of preparation and presentation.
Server wonderful, cheerful, and helpful!
I get something new every time and have yet to be disappointed. The food is delicious.
Second time for lunch and I just love the menu and quality of food and service
the atmosphere, service and food were absolutely wonderful! I will be back!
It was a little noisy but the food was so good.
They were really busy and the waitress seemed to be overwhelmed. I ordered water and got iced tea and my friend ordered a caprese sandwich and got something totally different. However, the waitress was very apologetic and gave me my water right away and my friend received her ordered sandwich as soon as she let them know the issue. The food was wonderful and the atmosphere great and it was so nice to eat outside in their beautiful garden.
Our only complaint was that the chef was very skimpy on the hollandaise sauce.
Our favourite restaurant!!! Love the outdoor seating this time of year and the food is always wonderful!!!!!
It was a gorgeous, sunny day so we chose to dine outside. The garden setting is truly peaceful and beautiful. The service was top notch. The hanging flowers were abundant and so colorful.
Looking for a great place to eat? It's like eating at home and having someone come in and prepare the food for you. We think it is just great!!!!!
No matter what I have ordered at this restaurant, it has been wonderful and the staff is very nice. It is a great, relaxing place to eat.
Good service and wonderful food
Windmill Bistro is always a fun place to have a special event or just a regular meal...I would always recommend it to my friends.
Great food, service and atmosphere

Excellent as always - great coffee and service!
Great place! Fabulous food.
Our favorite restaurant! Superb food and atmosphere with super friendly folks!!!
The food was amazing. They really pride themselves on quality. Will dine here again.
Everything was fresh and delicious. Service was quick. Love this place. We had two kids and although it's great for kids, I did feel like we were a little loud with our demanding 1.5 year old. :)
Wait staff is very friendly, food is amazing!
Food was fine but for the price the entree should have come with a salad.
Great food and service
Beautiful location!
Excellent food, excellent service.
The service is always great and the food, no matter what you order is always excellent.
My new favorite salad is the Windmill Bistro Sesame Chicken salad! Great food, Great service, wonderful with kids and beautiful garden outside for photo ops.
Beautiful gardens outside & romantic seating inside. Great kids menu. Food is homemade delicious & service is great. The perfect quaint bistro setting! The Crabmelt is amazing!
This restaurant has the best food and the best service around. No one would ever have a bad experience at the windmill bistro. The food is worth every penny that they charge for it.
The food was delicious - a little heavy on the balsamic vinagarette dressing, but everything else was delicious!!!
The food was wonderful!
excellent food..lovely out door dining area
Outside seating was delightful on this beautiful sunny day!
It was good but the service was a little slow.
We sat outside and it was a great choice. The soup of the day was Tortilla Soup and it was delicious. Had the Patty Melt Burger with cheddar, onions and 1000 Island dressing on toasted sourdough. My kind of burger, cooked to perfection on a grill and served hot. Service was very good even outside.
Atmosphere is a little to open/cafeteria style for my taste, the outdoor seating is great though.it was my first time for breakfast and probably my last, food was just mediocre.
We enjoy the great food and then walking through the adjoining nursery.
Clean, bright and inviting. We unexpectedly met some friends there and the staff quickly accommodated us by moving us to a larger table so we could enjoy our dinner together.
Wonderful food and service has great! Nice atmosphere, and beautiful area.
The food is wonderful and the people working there are very friendly and cheerful. The grounds are beautiful. One of our favorite places
The food was very good!
It is always a pleasant place to eat and visit. The selection of food is great and the service is always friendly.
Very attentive servers and excellent food.
love this restaurant! Best Chop Chop Salad around!!
Our waitress was fantastic!Food was very good but overpriced.
Charming setting, very pleasant staff, signage is poor so my companion missed the parking lot and entrance three times. An employee's car, parked on the street, BLOCKS the entrance sign!!! Food service is slow so be patient. NOT a place for hungry children. Food is very nicely prepared and servings are large. Prices higher than expected for lunch. Nice place for small birtday aprties, wedding showers, etc..
This is my favorite place for lunch and brunch.
The atmosphere, food & server were all great.
Great Food. And great service
Delicious food, excellent service.
You don't expect much from a place with bistro in the name. This was 5 stars--excellent quality, flavor, portion, service. Seasoning was perfect. That is rare.
Resaurant has a nice atmosphere and is very clean. The food was outstanding, but a bit pricey for what you get. Service could have been better.
Waitress had a bland personality. wasn't especially attentive. Excellent food.
Great food and very friendly service!
Best breakfast around!!!
Our server was great, very attentive.
Friendly inviting atmosphere with goo selection of food items.
The wait staff was very friendly always smiling!
We froze, it was very chili. Most of our meal was good althoe the french onion soup needs work! More than $50. for lunch for 2 I felt was over priced especially for what we got!
The atmosphere and service is the best! The food is good.
The atmosphere was very cozy and the staff were very nice and helpful.
The service was excellent and friendly. Food was very good and nice portion sizes as well. Very nice environment.
Fantastic experience!
love the outdoor dining!
Services is great! Food is delicious. Great atmosphere.
It is a beautiful setting and has a very nice menu. The staff was very nice and food came quickly.
We were not allowed to eat outside due to a wedding taking place and we were not offered a dessert menu. One server is not very friendly and flicked the lights at 8:00 while we were still eating. The food is always excellent so I will overlook the service.
have been going there for years. great place great food. Love the outside seating garden.
Our favorite restaurant! Love the managers, food and the atmosphere is the best!
Great options for gluten-free meals.
We enjoyed ourselves very much. Many thanks for good food and good service from our waitress Dale !!
Great place. Although busy we still had excellent service and cozy ambiance. The food was good, but a bit pricey. Overall a great experience!
Service was EXCELLENT. The variety of food was wonderful. Even though the menu wasn't extensive, the choices were healthy, and different enough from the standard fare, that it made for a perfect selection. I will definately return!
Thank you for a lovely lunch experience to share with my elderly mother.
Great place to have a relaxing weekend lunch outside in their garden.
Way overpriced. Loud atmosphere.
I had been looking forward to dining for lunch at the Windmill Bistro for quite sometime. I have purchased from the nursery for years. I thought the prices were high for the quality of their food. Will not return.
this was an enjoyable experience. The crab and artichoke melt was excellent.
Going back for breakfast tomorrow it was so good.
The nursery was cool. I bought a statue for my garden.
Enjoyed the lunch and walk thru the windmill nursery. Will definately be doing this again...
Windmill Bistro is a relaxing place to dine with excellent food. However, the service varies. It gets very busy at times and it seems as though they don't have enough staff to handle the crowds.
Love the atmosphere and friendly staff. I liked the beautiful flowers in bloom.
Sat outside ... it was wonderful
If it were not for the coupon, we would not have been able to afford the visit. The food was outstanding.
Service was slow.
Visited prior to this visit
Lovely afternoon!
very beautiful setting
We really enjoy the service, food and location. It is important to support local businesses. Recently celebrated a family birthday there with party of 10, service and food was also wonderful then.
Food was just OK, kind of bland. Most of the diners were older folks so I guess that makes sense. Very pleasant atmosphere.
I prefer to support local businesses. I have lived in Sumner for a long time and it is great to see to quality restaurant.
still an expensive meal with the coupon
Excellent food and service. Great place!!!
food was fabulous and lots of it... wait staff wonderful...
A very nice dining experience that I'd enjoy repeating. The server was superb, food good, if not exceptional.
Wonderful date night night with my husband. Thanks for serving such yummy food and providing such friendly service.
It is never good when the server takes your plate before you are done eating.
Live in Sumner and want to support a local business, especially when it provides such a pleasant dining experience.
We always enjoy eating here, food is great, and the ambiance of the place really can't be beat.
We were very impressed with the Windmill Bistro and are excited to return soon. The other items on the menu looked delicious!
Very good food, but portions are very small. My husband and daughters boyfriend would gave left hungry.
Wonderful experience for my husband, 12-year old twin daughters and myself. Thanks for a fun Friday family night out...:)
Long wait for food, fairly small portions for the price
I will definitely be back! Both food and service were amazing! I was really really pleased.
5+ minutes to be greeted was only negative
Very Nice!
The wine pours were very small. I wouldn't order wine there again. However the food was delicious and the portions were generous.
I have eaten at Windmill many times before. However, on this visit the food was awful and the service was awful.
A little on the pricey side - but delicious food.
We really enjoyed the quiet atmosphere and our overall dining experience. My wife is taking our daughters on a tour of Meeker Mansion in Puyallup next month and is going to take them by the Windmill Restaurant for desert and drinks.
The food was not as good as it could have been. There were several areas in the food that need improving. Very nice place to visit.
We had a really wonderful experience at the Bistro. Would go again next week. The happy hour menu was excellent. Great food at a great price!
atmosphere very quaint, excellent food, will visit again, and bought more certificates !!
food was great and service was excellent.
