Crema's Take
“Nestled in Traverse City with a picturesque creek running alongside, The Mill Glen Arbor charms visitors with its thoughtfully renovated space that feels both homey and polished—perfect for lingering over specialty drinks, matcha, and pastries in a setting that celebrates the outdoors. While some find the pricing steep for casual coffee stops, the venue truly shines as a destination spot for special occasions and unhurried moments, whether you're catching up with friends or marking a milestone like an anniversary.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.
