Watermill Restaurant

Great place. Visited yesterday afternoon, only had a couple of drinks so can't comment on the food but it did look good. Owner was great and so was his wife. Was quiet at the time but can tell it would have a good vibe when busy.

I attended a wedding at The Watermill in September. The venue was warm and inviting and we had a wonderful night of drinking, dancing and catching up with old friends. The staff were friendly and the buffet we had was delicious and plentiful. I’d definitely go again and I’d love to be there and see if it’s as wonderful when they aren’t hosting a wedding.

Cocktails were great and so nice to sit outside in such a lovely area. Staff were so friendly and kind. Will definitely go back and recommend to everyone. Thank you for putting up my poster too!

The Watermill Cafe has gone downhill over the years. Despite their menu saying the breakfast muffins come with two hash browns, we were only served with one. When asked about this they refused to honour the quantity on the menu even when I paid full price. Quality of ingredients has also gone noticeably downhill. It’s unfortunate as the location is nice.

Excellent party venue!!!. We had our wedding here 06th September 2024 and it was absolutely perfect. The setting looked magical, a historical building dating back to the era of William Morris and Liberty designs that we all still love today. The rooms with exposed brickwork lit by fairy lights and candles...with beautiful outside areas to sit and enjoy on the banks of the river wandle, Abbey Mills a truly hidden gem. The owners John and KC were beyond amazing both with planning and the food was perfect. We had a 3 course carvery dinner and homemade buffet in the eve. All guests were impressed at the quality of the food and the beautiful setting, we had 3 rooms, the main room with seating, dancefloor and dj, the cafe for the buffet and a quieter area to chat, and the conservatory as a games room with pool table, cocktails and alcoholic slushies. Please take a look at the Watermill for any parties or events you are hosting. We comfortably sat 50 daytime guests and increased to 100 in the eve with room for a dj and dance floor. The venue can host more guests if needed. We had the perfect wedding day thanks to the hard work of all the team at the Watermill. Thank you all so much. Karen x

First impressions I like this venue You order food at the bar, and pay before you eat and drink one's Meal is brought to your table. Quick service under 5 minutes Attentive staff No sooner have I eaten than my. empty plates are whisked away SOMETHING I HATE. All the more so, once I had finished my drink the empty glass was whisked away within seconds of it touching the table as if they wanted you out If it was not by chance that I Came here on a Saturday when a brass band was playing under the squares bandstand which added to the ambience I would have given this place Two stars Will be back to try out their Sunday carvery next time to see if it fairs better to other venues I frequent. Post scrip, Sunday Buffet disappointing

A great place to come when it's sunny. We have been ordering the loaded fries as our Sunday afternoon ritual lately. Loving the Asian themed menu which seems to be getting bigger.

Quaint café/grill in old windmill building and nice exterior covered extension. Excellent service, and very reasonably priced food! I had the half a vegetarian breakfast and nicely done toasts! Was filling and nice! Tea was seriously spot on. Nicely brewed and smooth! One of the best teas I have tasted! By that I mean, I could taste the tea's natural quality without having the urge to add a little sugar. I also got 2 and a half cups from the tea pot! Ambience nice and cosy. If you want to feel like you're at a day theme park, just step into the extension at the front of the café/grill. Overall nice food at a very reasonable price near a windmill. You don't need to go to Holland now!

Very much enjoyed the classic english breakfast with me son and wife. Folks were very nice and service was great.

The food was fantastic and tasty as well as piping hot. Friendly service as well. I wanted to eat out in the Merton abbey mills local area but did not want KFC or Pizza Hut so I was glad I decided to walk round to abbey mills & found this gem of a place. I had the moussaka it was delicious. I will go again.

Poor service rude staff would not go here again or recommend this place to anyone , a afternoon out with a group of young people with disabilities in wheel chairs , it was made clear by the staff's attitude we werent made welcome and didn't want us in there
