Nice historic building. Restaurant poor. Poor service - plates dropped, wrong dishes, no sorries, cold food, overpriced cuisine and wines. Staff distant. Bygone days - may have been something. Adelaide has much better restaurants. Does our city a disservice!

Recently I shared lunch with two friends at the Bridgewater Mill restaurant. I booked a table following a friend's recommendation as well as being a long standing fan of Petaluma's Riesling and Croser Sparkling. The meal and wine were exceptional. My seafood soup with mint and almond flakes followed by lamb for main were perfectly prepared and presented. My friend's... More

This is a fantastic setting inside an old watermill. Our party of 8 enjoyed some wonderful food complimented by beautiful wine. It is a special occasion resturant, achieving a high standard. It is not a cheap lunch but one can reasonably expect to pay for quality, and this resurant delivers just that. Well worth a trip.

Having been wanting to dine here for a number of years - we finally made it here on a weekday with only three other tables of guests. We waited to receive menus, we wasited to place our orders, we waited for our drinks and we waited and waited for our food. The staff were totally distant - not that I... More

We have been constant and loyal patrons of the Bridgewater Mill restaurant over the years and hope to continue our love affair with this well established Adelaide Hills venue into the future.

Service was good but somewhat brusque. Wines were very good and there was a wine tasting area adjacent which was very well set out and very... More

It had been nearly ten years since we had lunch at Bridgewater Mill but we enjoyed it as much as our last visit. This time we went on a sunny Sunday afternoon and sat out on the deck. The sound of the waterwheel was very soothing. Three waiters were very attentive and helpful and gave good advice for matching wines.... More

I'd been meaning to go here for many years and finally managed it today for our anniversary. The setting is lovely, it'd be even nicer in Summer out on the deck by the big waterwheel. The service was prompt and friendly, despite the restaurant being nearly full. The food was really nice, though I wouldn't describe it as really outstanding.... More

We picked the restaurant because it was attached to their cellar door wine tastings and it seemed like it had nice ambience and a good menu. But we were quickly shocked to see that they insisted on a minimum food spend of $30. With starters costing around $26, you had to have 2 courses, or just a main meal. (... More
