    Dinner caused a spirited debate/argument: Which course was the best!? It was a good problem to have on my birthday dinner. The 5-course meal was perfect (perhaps the last two could have been marginally smaller). And whether the sticky toffee pudding was that, or more like an excellent bread pudding, would be another debate -- and the buttery sauce was amazing. We'll definitely return, and hopefully before another birthday comes along.

    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.
