I'm so happy to see Mickey's is still thriving! Well, this is almost 40 years late, but better late than never! My workout buddy and I used to train on base at RAF Mildenhall, then pop over to Mickey's, where he would make us the biggest, most delicious, tuna specials! We were pretty big boys at the time and he always took care of us. I can remember them to this day...and I remember Mickey too, such a sweet person, always so friendly. Hope you are well Mickey!! 1984/85.

Was stationed at Mildenhall 69-72 and stayed at the barracks about 400 ft E of ???????????????????????????? ???????????? ????????????. Loved picking up their Tuna Fish sandwiches for lunch, then on to Bldg 591.

I was stationed at RAF Mildenhall from summer 1962 to summer 1964. I was originally born in London and therefore drink tea (with milk). I used to stop in at Mickey's on the way to work for a cuppa. Sometimes I would have a hamburger. Loved it.

Honestly the most comfortable place to eat. Food is consistently great, no matter what dish I order. Honestly surprised there isn't more traffic in this historic little restaurant. Talking with staff is always a treat. I would certainly miss dining here once my time is through and I've moved on. It will be the first place I take in processing airmen, and it will be the place I take friends and coworkers.

Terrific Tina and Malcolm Love them both. Great food and place So clean. Worth the 2 hour drive to get there.

I was on TDY (temporary duty) twice early '78 & early '81. I ate more meals at Mickey's than I did at the Chow Hall. I'm very happy to see that it's still thriving!

We love Mickey’s. The atmosphere is so inviting and you can’t go wrong with his chicken curry and rice not to mention his sweet tea. The closest I have found to tasting like Texas tea with lemon. Yum , it makes me go back every time.

I've had many meals here and enjoyed every one. Thank you Mickeys for the memories.
