The Donut Mill is a good place to stop for a coffee or a sandwich if you are traveling past Red Deer on the QE2 Highway. It is located south of Red Deer on Gasoline Alley, just past Glenn’s Family Restaurant. Keep your eyes open for a windmill structure and you can’t miss it.
According to the sign inside the front door, 90% of their food is made fresh on site daily. There are free coffee refills for stay in customers. On hand are fresh donuts, muffins and pastries. They also offer salads, sandwiches, subs, soups, stew and chili. There is enough friendly staff on hand to take care of a rush of customers. Like other donut/ coffee shops, this eatery is set up cafeteria style, so a waitress won’t be coming around to your table. They do have a drive through for those in a rush.
Stop by the Donut Mill next time you are looking for a coffee and a pastry. It is less hectic than the famous
coffee chain down the road, and a good spot to read the paper while you enjoy your java. Pick up a coffee card to buy 9 coffees and get the tenth one free. And don’t forget the free refills!

I am a coffee and pastry lover from way back. I love cinnamin rolls with glaze. I go to the cider mills around here for pastries. I lived in apple country for quite a while now I live by Holland Michigan and we too have the windmills.
Now you just made me want to blow my diet!
