    It is definitely much better managed these days but unfortunately today it must just be our luck at that place but they forgot our order and it wasn’t processed properly through to the kitchen. Our friends who ordered after us got their meals 15 minutes before us and I had to go and ask the waitress where our food was and yes unfortunately it had been missed. They brought it out asap and it was delicious but just a shame as our friends waited for us to eat so their meals went cold. Anyway. Not the end of the world. Still a nice place and yummy food with good atmosphere.

    Amazing food and service. The Scones are to die for! My Dad said the Brekky roll was delicious. We will definitely be back!

    We thoroughly enjoyed our morning at Historic Rivermill. We visit frequently. Service and food was excellent. Staff were extremly accomodating. Food came quickly and was hot and fresh. So much entertainment for kids of all ages. Jurassic Party was unexpectedly there hosting their reptile show. A lovely experience to add to the holiday program.

    We had a lovely time here for my daughter’s birthday. The lines initially for food and drink were quite busy. But lovely cafe experience, and wonderful attraction to feed the turtles, and the farm animals. The people running the horse riding were amazing, very accommodating and my children had the best time. Thanks so much for having our big group of 22 people we will be back.

    Food was good. Service was excellent & the view looking out onto the water & the greenery was beautiful. For us personally,the music was a bit too loud, it would've added to the peace & serenity if there were no music & all u could hear was the sound of nature. The $4 animal feed was too over priced considering the size of the cup. Overall, it was a lovely place to visit & we'll definitely visit again. It's a great place for families with small children. Thank you for sharing your piece of paradise with us 😊
