If you’re ever in Danville, Bridges Restaurant is a must-visit spot that perfectly balances exceptional food, expertly crafted drinks, and a warm, inviting atmosphere. It’s our go-to place for a reason, and every visit reminds us why it’s such a beloved institution in this charming town. For starters, Bridges isn’t just about the culinary experience—it’s a part of cinematic history! Fans of Mrs. Doubtfire will recognize it as the setting of the iconic “run-by fruiting” scene. The ambiance alone is worth the visit, blending timeless elegance with a cozy vibe. On this visit, we brought friends from out of town, and as always, Bridges delivered. The menu is thoughtfully curated with dishes that cater to every palate. Whether you’re indulging in their beautifully plated entrees or sipping on a perfectly balanced cocktail, you can taste the attention to detail in every bite and sip. The service? Impeccable. The staff are knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely passionate about ensuring every guest has a memorable experience. Bridges is more than just a restaurant; it’s a Danville institution that captures the spirit of the community. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, this is a dining experience you don’t want to miss.

Beautiful restaurant with friendly staff. The food was blah. Bland fish, over cooked pasta. Over priced for what it is and a terrible wine list.

We dined outdoors this evening, as one of our party is immunocompromised. The heaters kept us warm, and the atmosphere was lovely. The wait staff was attentive without rushing us, and the food was wonderful. One couple shared a salad, and it was served split on two plates without that even being requested. One of us enjoyed the perfectly crisp brussels sprouts and the fourth said the tomato bisque soup was tasty. Three of us had the NY steak entry, and each steak was prepared perfectly to different temperatures. The fourth said the pork chop was delicious. Overall, the evening was very enjoyable, and I think both the food and the service an improvement since the new owners took over.
