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.

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

We went there yesterday for my sons birthday. We had a great time. The staff were very friendly and attentive. We had a wings and squid for a starter, it was so delicious. I had a burger it was also so good.
Kindly the staff put a candle on my son's dessert and sung happy birthday for him. He really enjoyed his cookie and cream cheesecake. I would definitely go back there again.

Excellent food, friendly service. I wasn't expecting to order pork ribs while in the UK, but they were fantastic! Nice cocktails as well. The place is really big with a lot of twists and turns so it feels small when you're sitting at your table. They also have a service switch/light at each table for when you need something, which is helpful for Americans who don't know how to politely call a waiter over in Europe. :-)

Excellent, excellent, excellent! We stopped here twice. On our way to our AirBnB we took a quick break and sipped mulled wine and sat outside. The cold weather didn't even bother us because the service was just right and the view was lovely. We dined for an early Christmas Dinner. Everything that was ordered was super yummy! All the serving staff was accommodating and kind. They were busy and it did not seem to change their ability to meet all of our needs. From the delicious local brewed coffee to the flexibility of the staff, this is a must dine. The kitchen was fast too. Even after we left

Came here for dinner and was first off surprised by how big it was! It was much larger than it looks on the pictures. I was here with a friend, and we ordered the Mezze Platter for 2 as a starter - wonderful way to start the meal. For my main I had the Tabbouleh Salad, and it was absolutely delicious! So many wonderful flavors going on all at once. For dessert we shared the Orange Custard Tart, I'm not a big fan of custard, but it was yummy and Orange-y. The staff was super friendly and I also had a kind of coffee/vanilla cocktail that the waitress recommended - it was absolutely delicious

The food and cocktails here are absolutely delicious. My friend took me here flr the first time last night and the service was just as amazing as their carefully crafted cocktails. I highly recommend their Burnt Lemon Aviator. Thanks for the outstanding service from Kathie or Kathy. I know the receipt accidently said Katie so I was unsure hlw to spell our servers name. Everyone on staff was beyond friendly and welcoming. If you are in Cambridge be sure to put this establishment on your must visit list. Thank you again everyone for your outstanding service.

By far one of the best restaurants in Cambridge. First off, the atmosphere is amazing. Built in an old mill, the interior of the restaurant is nothing short of amazing. One of the dining rooms even contains the working waterwheel encased in glass. There are also glass panels in the floor where you can see the river flowing underneath the room. Second, the food was superb. We had the meat feast for 2 and it did not disappoint. The meat was cooked to perfection (not over cooked at all). Lastly the service was fantastic. They have buttons next to your table that you can push and it alerts the waitstaff

Nice modern restaurant. It is part of Cambscuisine, an independent group of 7 restaurants. They offer lunch, dinner, a picnic menu etc. We came as part of a work function involving around 70 people. The dinner was well coordinated and organized. We mostly pre-ordered from a fixed price menu. I had the roasted squash salad, mussels and gooey brownie. The salad and mussels were good but not fantastic. The dessert was excellent. I'm not sure how much of it was due to the kitchen not being able to keep up with a large group. We definitely enjoyed our visit and would like to visit again

I am originally from the UK but have lived in the US for the past 11 years and as I travel all over the globe for work I get to eat at a variety of different places. During my most recent trip to Cambridge I received a recommendation to try Millworks and after looking at the reviews on tripadvisor and yelp I was excited to try this new restaurant. I walked to the restaurant and the location leading to the restaurant is beautiful. Upon arrival I entered a very clean and new looking facility where I was greeted immediately by a number of smiling faces. I wanted to just relax for a while before
