Falling for Fall’s New Seasonal Menu Items at Mimi’s Cafe

Pumpkin, butternut squash, apple cinnamon — the flavors of fall are downright divine.   To ensure we’re all swooning over the season, Mimi’s Cafe has added a new seasonal menu that features your new favorite fall flavor, Samuel Adams!

We received a complimentary meal in order to facilitate this review.   All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Mimi’s Cafe has been a favorite of my family’s for decades, and I’ve shared our love for all things corn chowder and special seasonal menus in the past.

When telling my eldest daughter where we were headed for dinner, her immediate response was “YAY! BREAD!’ because that bread basket is something we all dream about.  But there are brand new flavors that will be fulfilling your fall fantasies.  The new Mimi’s Cafe menu features Samuel Adams sauces, making Sam Adams the new fall flavor you’ll be falling for.

Our evening began much to our eldest’s delight with a basket of bread and drinks.  Now that our kids are a little bit older, taking them out to restaurants is getting easier and easier.  There’s hope, parents of young children.  They will sit still at restaurants.  They will try new foods (and they’ll even share with you if you ask nicely).  Yet, Poppy’s only 4 so she still appreciates a good coloring page and a cup with a lid.  Our super sweet waitress even brought over a stash of her granddaughter’s gel pens.

We decided to order a variety of menu items so we could share both the new seasonal offerings and some old favorites.  It was a great plan because it meant we all got to try selections; however, when we first took  bites we realized that sharing any of the Samuel Adams menu options was going to be such a challenge.  Everything was so yummy!

The new menu includes:

  • 10 oz Bone-In Pork Chop with Samuel Adams® Glaze, served with potatoes au gratin and fresh broccoli.
  • Brisket Ciabatta Sandwich with melted Monterey jack cheese, red onions and Samuel Adams sauce, served with a side of french fries.
  • Chicken Ciabatta Sandwich with Monterey jack cheese, green leaf lettuce, Roma tomatoes, pesto mayonnaise and Samuel Adams sauce with a side of french fries.
  • Loaded Brisket Mac & Cheese with penne pasta, bacon, and brisket tossed in melted cheddar cheese and topped with a crispy panko Parmesan crust.

There’s a malty sweetness of the Samuel Adams sauces.  Added to seriously delicious things like mac and cheese loaded with bacon and brisket, it’s a meal deserving of its own season. But the seasonal Samuel Adams won’t last all year long.  You’ve got to grab your pork chop and the most amazing au gratin potatoes by November 11th!

  • I can’t believe how good everything looks. I will have to try everything ( except fish) on the menu. Loving fall with the pumpkin spices, apples etc ., I’m in heaven. See you at Mimi’s

  • All of the food looks delicious. I’d love to try the loaded brisket macaroni and cheese myself. It has some of my favorite things!

  • Everything looks so delicious. I love when a restaurant changes things up seasonally. Reminds me of home cooked meals

  • I’ve been to Mimi’s twice and really enjoyed their corned beef! Thanks for sharing I may make a stop one of these days

  • Menu looks good. I like eating meat dishes made with beer or alcohol sauces and glazes. They really liven up the flavor of the meat.

  • I have never tried to eat any dish with alcohol ingredients but those menu looks really good and I am sure my sister will love these type of dishes.

  • This food looks incredible. I’m from Massachusetts but more to GA 8 months ago and I’m loving all things southern cuisine.

  • Looking at those food photos made me drool. It is unfortunate we don’t have a Mimi’s nearby. Southern food is the ultimate comfort food!
