    I had a great time there and will most definitely be coming back. I initially booked a table outside but the weather was not in agreement. In my notes, I also put that if the weather wasn’t great, if I could have a table next to the windows and I was not disappointed. The food was delicious and the staff were friendly and couldn’t have done enough.

    Hi Patricia, We're so pleased you had a great time and that we could move you to a window table when the weather turned. We're glad the food hit the mark and that our team looked after you so well. Thank you for the kind words and for planning to come back. We look forward to welcoming you again soon.

    We had a really nice meal on Sunday. The two course menu is good value and has a variety of dishes available. We had the filo prawns and Korean chicken and then the salmon and Guinea fowl which all looked great and tasted delicious. Service was attentive, the location is excellent for many tourist attractions and the ambiance was relaxed. Would definitely dine there again and also recommend to others.

    Overall the afternoon tea was ok but I don’t think that anything we had was made in-house,
    The Ivy Tower BridgeResponded 5 days ago
    Hi Leslie, Thank you for visiting and for the honest feedback. We are sorry the afternoon tea felt only "ok" and that it seemed nothing was made in‑house. We prepare several sandwiches and scones in‑house, while some pastries and speciality items come from trusted local suppliers to maintain quality. We appreciate the note and hope you will visit again and tell us what you would like to see more of.
