TL:DR
Service was great but would advise going before the 9:30pm last bookings as your order will be rushed.
Food was amazing and our server (Rosie) was friendly, patient and very helpful.

I have visited many Miller and Carters throughout the country and decided to try this one while on a bank holiday trip to Suffolk.
Initial impressions weren’t good as upon arrival the manager on shift advised us the kitchen was closing in 5 minutes and we were pressured to get an order through upon arrival even though there is a later booking time available at 9:45pm.
Following the above we were taken to our table and allocated a server (Rosie) who was extremely helpful and patient. Rosie’s service was excellent, describing to us her recommendations which led to us having the butchers block.
Impressions then improved with the cleanliness of the restaurant and atmosphere which was very pleasant.
Our mains and sides then arrived where I can say the food was well presented and tasted excellent.
With approximately 25 minutes till close (10:35pm) Rosie then asked if there was anything else she could get us. We ordered the chocolate brownie dessert to share and I asked for another small glass of Red wine (given the time). Unfortunately, I was told the bar closed at 10:30pm and no more drinks orders were possible. This was disappointing as I wasn’t notified or asked regarding any last orders for drinks.
Overall, a good experience with a couple of minor improvements and excellent food. I would definitely return but with an earlier reservation time.
Went for a family meal - 3 adults and 2 children U12.
Plenty of parking available.
We arrived at 18:30 and was promptly seated in a very large booth that sat 6 people.
Place was clean and tidy and staff were pleasant and welcoming.
Had to wait a little to get our first drinks. Could see them sitting at the end of the bar for at least 10mins.
Starters:
The garlic bread was barely warm but OK.
All over nibbles was fine.
Mains:
All cooked to are requirements and was very nice. Kids meals were spot on.
One pot of my chips were warm and the others piping hot.
With 2 alcoholic drinks, the rest soft drinks and the meal for 3 adults and 2 Children came to just over £170.
My family and I always have a great evening here. Tonight we had yet another fantastic dining experience for my sister in laws Birthday. Our server was Saffron who is just awesome! She's warm, attentive and got involved with our tables banter from the off. Couldn't recommend this place enough.
