The Mill Wheel Bar and Bistro — Restaurant in The Municipal District of East Cork

We were very fortunate to get a sitting as a walk in, without a booking, on a busy Saturday night. We were given a table for a hour (before a booking would take our table). It was truly an enjoyable hour well spent.

Regarding Mill Wheel reply, we paid the bill and have receipt as proof. Sad that they refuse to...
