The Mill on the River
2024 Jun 01
Hosted the rehearsal dinner for my brother's wedding - beautiful venue on the river, great atmosphere and decor, excellent and spacious banquet room upstairs with a great view overlooking the waterfall and river. Attentive service, they clearly host a lot of events and are a well-oiled machine - took and served drink orders while everyone was arriving and chatting, and once everyone was seated entree options of steak or salmon were promptly served. Warm rolls with butter were fantastic, and both steak and salmon were excellently prepared. There are some great cocktails on offer - Monkey Business is a simple yet perfect combination, and the Pineapple Blackberry is the tasty, fruity, and creamy rum drink of your dreams. Maple bourbon Manhattan is a stronger option, not too sweet with just the right amount of notes of maple, and the Pistachio martini is a must-try unexpected combination of ingredients that work together exceedingly well. Spring lychee and lemon blossom are both a touch heavy on alcohol and lemon, and light on lychee/elderflower respectively, but to each their own. Delicious chocolate cake for dessert punctuated a wonderful meal!

Excellent food and atmosphere, abysmal service, although I give them a slight pass as it was a very busy St. Patrick's Day weekend Saturday. Very slow and barely saw our server at all. Queso with chorizo was very good, a must-try, and prickly pear margarita was delicious and strong. Smoked pork belly and birria tacos were excellent as well, can't go wrong with anything on the menu.

Great meal in a historic and atmospheric venue! Hot apple cider was a fun try, and Serrano and black mission fig and smoked duck and gouda pinxto flights were excellent, as was Scotch egg. Sticky toffee pudding for dessert was very nice as well!

Good burger, curly fries, and loaded breakfast sandwich. Fast service. Milkshake machine was broken, but that's okay.
