This place has a great location and well done interior design. The cocktails were great and so were the appetisers. Unfortunately all of the mains we tried, we were a group of three, were not good. The mussels were old tasting (if you eat a lot of mussels then you know the taste), chicken shawarma was bland, and pork rump was okay. The staff were awesome though and it was overall a good experience.I still think that this place is worth a visit but maybe order something different than we did.

Less busy than the places in central Cambridge. However, slow to take orders, food average (the pork was over-cooked), and cocktails were very sweet. That said, our waitress was friendly and the setting was nice, so it was fine to spend a few hours. Just don't expect anything amazing.

The food was exceptional. The Lamb Croquettes were really good. As a main I ordered the pork which was cooked to perfection. My partner had the Moroccan Spiced Coley which had the most amazing flavours - one of the best meals I've ever tasted in a restaurant. The staff is super friendly and very helpful. Highly recommended!

Lovely food with a Moroccan taste. The Goats shoulder was different and 1st time to try and was cooked beautifully. Nice old converted Mill and still with the working water mill thats placed in the middle of the dining area encased in glass. You can sit outside by the river and even take in a bit of punting. Heron and wildlife also to see. Nice area.

Good terrace and food options. Friendly staff. Very welcome Some low/no alcohol drinks. Cauliflower Salad a bit pricey but tasty

Nice location and decent staff but that's all the good things. Chicken wing starter cold and undercooked, even our table staff agreed it wasn't good. Mains came out at different times, 3 of us had started before the 4th meal arrived. Chicken burger appeared reheated, bacon almost raw and chips not quite warm. Ribs overdone, side salad dry. Then they add ÂŁ10 service charge on. Admitted they took some of the bits off but if it was cooked correctly they wouldn't have too.Won't be rushing back.

Millworks punt was lovely, especially with those fried Halloumi sticks. The rocket leaves make me feel less guilty. The squash hummus is a little too salty and overpowering—more like a spiced dip than hummus or squash.My friend says the pulled pork was far too sweet… Maybe there’s too much ketchup.

Had an amazing meal by the window with a beautiful view over the river. The lamb leg steak was delicious, and my partner also agreed with his choice, which was the chicken.I also absolutely loved the button to call the waiter if we needed something. So useful.

The interior of the venue is neat and quirky, I really liked the theme. We ordered lots of wings, a pizza and halloumi fries. The wings were fine, buffalo being the best, but the halloumi fries were cold. The pizza felt homemade and was tasty, although I would have preferred the base to be crispier. Overall the food was average, and the service was pretty poor. Our waiter clearly didn't want to be there today. He was very slow, unfriendly and took ages to get our bill. Having been charged 10% service charge automatically was a bit cheeky, bearing in mind the service was naff and there was only three of us. An extra pound is also added if your bill is over 30 quid, to help local charities, but this was clearly stated on the menu and I don't mind. Overall food was fine, service was poor and left me feeling underwhelmed.
