Drift on Mill — Restaurant in Bristol

Restaurant is beautifully decorated, good vibes and atmosphere. Hostess and waitress were both super sweet and attentive. We ordered the following: Calamari: very bland and rubbery 10/10 do not recommend French onion soup: husband loved, great flavor and portion size was huge Beef tips with creamy risotto in red wine Demi glaze sauce: portion size was huge, however the meat was really dry and it looked like dog food slopped onto a plate. Not very flavorful- the red wine demi glaze taste like brown gravy opposed to anything red wine based, risotto was just okay. Filet mignon with mashed potatoes and asparagus: portion size was decent however there was absolutely no season on the steak- not even salt or pepper. Mashed potatoes lacked flavor also and looked like they had been sitting for a while under the heat lamp.

I don’t think I would go back here for food, but I would perhaps visit for drinks as their drink menu...

I got drinks here weeks ago and liked it but felt the drinks weren’t very strong (more juice like). I decided to go back again with friends to try some food. We got drinks again that didn’t feel like a true drink. We got 4-5 apps. Lobster soup was good, lots of lobster. The French onion soup was good too. Hostess was awesome. Decor is on point.

We got the muscles and bread that was very strange. While eating other stuff we both were wondering if someone was smoking marshmallows for a drink or something. I went to go try the muscles with the bred and took a bite, realizing the bread didn’t taste like bread and was the marshmallow/liquid smoke/ burn smell. It’s probably one of the worst things I’ve ever eaten in my life. The taste persisted throughout the muscles as well.

Service was kinda slow, place wasn’t busy, waitress was a little rude and didn’t even say thank you at the end, was bad vibes. Hopefully...

My husband and I want to Drift on mill on Saturday June 21, 2025. The food was amazing. We had the stuff mushrooms as an appetizer. They were very good. My husband expected there to be more than four, but we really enjoyed them. I had the steak and crab cake dinner. It normally comes with mashed potatoes, but I don't eat them so Leanne let me substitute for the risotto. The chef out did him/her self. I had no room left for dessert. We also had a wonderful, very polite, waitress with a smile that wouldn't quit smile. She really helped make our night out a great one. Thank you so much Leanna. We can't wait to come see you again soon. So if you are like us and really are getting tired of the chain restaurants and want a new experience with a nice atmosphere and an even better staff make sure you stop by...
