About Us

The foundations of 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 were formed in the back yard of a home in the Harris Mill village.

 From Beginnings to Restaurant Dreams

From Beginnings to Restaurant Dreams

Around 2006, a small gas fired brick oven was built that hosted many gatherings, one pizza at a time. Good beer, good pizza, and good company were good times to be had on the mill hill. In 2009 the market took a turn for the worse, and Gianpaolo Bonaca decided it was time to get out of the then dying real estate market and instead lose sleep over building a restaurant.
 From Vision to Community Hub

From Vision to Community Hub

So they found a building in a quiet part of town, and began working on a plan to bring the same good times from Harris Mill to what would become The Mill House. Once we (barely) got open, The Mill House began to come alive on its own. As a strong team developed, we explored new things, expanded our horizons, and our community embraced us as we grew.
 Expanding Horizons

Expanding Horizons

Since starting as a small pizza and sandwich shop, we continually broaden our menu, cultivate a fine craft beer selection, host Sunday brunches and beer dinners, and keep the Good Times brews flowing from our on-site brewery. We support local farmers by using local produce and meats when possible, and our team takes pride in the quality of our work, the freshness of our ingredients, serving our patrons.

But none of this would have been possible without our dedicated team and outstanding customers. We always love to hear your feedback to help us make this a better experience for you. 🖤♨

With nearly 20 years combined experience with The Mill House, these two are the beating heart of our establishment. Their dedication to bringing outstanding service and a quality product to our community is a key part to what makes us tick.

Gianpaolo (also answers to 'GP' and 'Geep', and has been called worse) came from Columbia SC to attend Lander University. In 𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟏 he graduated from the school of Business, and decided to stay involved with product development in the horticulture industry. This somehow seemed to lead to projects varying from building growth chambers, to electrical contracting, to real estate investing among other things.
