The old Windmill Restaurant building has had several different businesses since the restaurant closed. I forget what's there now but the business sounds like what you have described. You probably were at the right place.

About a 1/4 mile from the Margate headed toward the Weirs, past the other motels, Oriental Gardens and that mall/condo place, the road (Route 3) curves left and almost forks with White Oaks Road. White Oaks goes up the hill while Route 3 follows Paugus Bay.

If that's where you were then you were at the old Windmill Restaurant. It was the first building on White Oaks Road as I recall.
