Customer Review Summary
Friendly, welcoming staff are the most frequent draw, with reviewers repeatedly describing servers who go out of their way for families and special occasions. Food comes close behind, described as fresh, full of flavor and cooked to perfection, with a good variety and a big drinks list that includes a Chenin Blanc one diner found delicious. Several note how well the team handled dietary requirements, and one praises details such as lemon and ice in the water and coffee at the right temperature. Others mention a relaxed atmosphere, outdoor seating at brunch, and a pet friendly welcome with dogs given their own menus. The main complaint is slow service. One reviewer says their two daughters waited a very long time for ice cream on a second visit, that the wait had not improved, and that they probably won't return despite the lovely food. Birthdays come up repeatedly, including a server who came out singing happy birthday with a mum's cake.

“Molly served us today in Bills, for my Mum's birthday. She was friendly, helpful and came out singing 'happy birthday' with my mum's cake! What a lovely lady. Food was wonderful, as always but it's certainly is the friendly atmosphere that makes it. Thank you for making my mum's day extra special *****”

“I don’t leave reviews very often, but this place genuinely deserves the recognition. They absolutely nailed every little detail — from the lemon and ice in the water, to the coffee being the perfect temperature, to breakfast arriving at exactly the right time. Everything just felt effortless and well thought out. This isn’t simply a credit to the Bill’s chain; it’s a credit to the team they’ve built at this location. Excellent service, great attention to detail, and a team that clearly cares about what they do. Great work — we’ll definitely be back!”

“booked a table for 4 walked to be greeted very well and took us to our table, food was great but unfortunately the wait was very long. My two daughters had to wait 40 minutes for their ice cream, this is our second visit and the wait has not improved at all. Probably wont return now which is a shame as the food was lovely but need some sort of better system in place for waiters/waitress's.”

“Bill's never disappoint. Been a couple times recently, for a birthday brunch and a family dinner. Good service both times. Really nice cozy venue. Food is of good quality and there is a nice variety for everyone's tastes. Very pet friendly too, ready to welcome dogs with their own menus! Would recommend.”
