    Brightwater Hotel is a local hotel overlooking the lake at Brightwater. I was greeted by waiting staff on arrival and guided to our table for 6 - unfortunately due to illness 2 of our group were unable to attend. I was guided to our table and provided with menus and a drinks list. I was asked if I wanted a drink - yes and paid for it at time of order - sooo easy. The rest of the crew arrived and ordered drinks - paid for individually. We then ordered meals and paid individually - again sooo easy. Food came out after a short wait and everyone was pleased with their choice, cost and service Well done staff. A lovely afternoon had by all - simple and easy process and not too noisy. Would highly recommend this venue

    As a huge fan of piano bar, I was eagerly anticipating the return of a venue like this one, and the architect certainly did not disappoint. The ambiance was perfect, the staff were excellent, and the food was delicious— I highly recommend the lamb. I'm looking forward to many more nights here!

    Great food, great service but not the place to go if you are wanting to chat over dinner when the Trivia is happening. Would've been better before or after dinner hours.
