    Lovely lunch here with 2 friends . I have Coeliac Disease . Menu items were well marked and our server Ricky , very kindly offered and double checked my options with the chef so as to confirm there would be no cross contamination. I ordered the fries to start as I cannot have the flower pot bread they serve . I had the gf mushroom soup and the quinoa fritters. All delicious! I would highly recommend this restaurant for the service , the food and warmth of everyone who works there ! A very safe place to eat for people with a gluten allergy !

    Another great meal at Millwright's. My husband and I celebrated both of our birthdays here on a Friday night on the bridge. Our table was ideal, overlooking the waterfall. They have done an amazing job enclosing the bridge and making it warm and cozy and not jamming too many tables in there. Service was perfect throughout. We were wared that entrees were taking an hour, but our meal was very well paced. We started with shrimp cocktail and a cocktail. We had wine with dinner, which was duck breast for my husband and Lamb shepherds pie for me. Both were excellent. Dessert was a banana sticky toffee pudding, which was very good - but not quite as good as Gordon Ramsey's :) Millwright's offers plenty of vegan options and, for the service and ambiance you get, I think the food is priced very well. Except one steak, everything was under $40.
