My partner and I visited to celebrate our anniversary on Saturday evening. It was our first visit, and we were not disappointed. The staff made us feel really special. The food was delicious and was interspersed with palate cleansers & amuse bouche. The portion sizes were good, and there were a couple of lighter desserts on the menu to finish. Which I always appreciate when I have three courses. A well-deserved 5 stars, and we will definitely go back again.
We had our Family Christmas Lunch here on 11th December 2022. It was a truly fantastic afternoon. The food, ambiance and Chris and his staff were excellent, thank you very much, we will be back very soon!
The Venu is lovely to and warm and obviously very authentic especially being an Old Mill dating back 100,s of years.
Tastefully modernised with a old feel.
Very warm welcome from staff and made to feel at home.
We had a great time and the staff were attentive,kind and happy to indulge our quirky party.
The Evening menu was lovely but surprising not vast in its starters or mains choices, however that should not always be the case.....more is not a plumb line to make a judgement on the food,menu etc.
The starters were well presented and we all had something different.
Which served our tastes buds..the mushroom stuffed with goats cheese was very tasty but was only just warm to eat ...and the mushroom was not huge compared to the £8.95 ......the mains was a selection of different cuts of pork served with a selection of vegetables and a roasted fondant potatoe....(see foto)
What I do need to say is the Pork selection was tender,well cooked and tasty and I could have done with two portions.
(That isn't to say the portions were meager) they were just right but I could have easily ate 2 as it was so good....🤪
However the one upright half of a carrot and 2 baby broccoli stems and a half of a potatoe less than the size of my credit card that wasn't roasted was very disappointing.
I knew the restaurant had a great reputation and the fine diner comes with cost and limited portions but I had to chuckle inside at the seasonal vegetables served with such succulent meats.
I would definitely come again but the straw that broke the camel's back with a restaurant with such a great menu pleasant and helpful staff....and great food apart from my own personal observations was you had to pay for parking for the privilege of eating there.
The prices you have to pay I do not feel (even if they incorporated parking into the cost of good,service etc) warranty the patron to pay to park the car and eat....just imagine if they did that at the Golden Arches!!!!🤣
