Reviews The Gait Inn

Fantastic family run country pub. Brilliant setting with fantastic beer garden.

It was my birthday today so I thought I would treat myself to dinner. Went to the Gait inn, lovely place in Millington. So quiet and peaceful. I decided to sit out and you could almost hear a pin drop. Service was excellent and food first rate, I really enjoyed it and though I am now completely stuffed it was well worth it.

Superb pub and great food. I had the surf and turf, which was lovely, should be for £27. The food took a while to arrive at the table as the food was cooked fresh. The other meal I ordered was battered Haddock, and chips with mushy peas. Wow, the fish was delicious and cooked to perfection. The staff are friendly and the bar has a good selection of wine. There is ample parking around the back of the pub, and the interior of the establishment is lovely and gives it a good old vibe with the wood burner burning away, making it feel homely. Would recommend this place for a great family meal. Will be going back to this place. 8/10.

Had a lovely 2 course meal here with my Husband, whilst staying in Whilton Bishop. Quality ingredients, delicious food & drink & value for money. Left with full & satisfied tummies & eagerness to visit again to try the rest of the menu.

Had lunch out here a couple of weeks ago, the journey there was so lovely we wish we'd brought our walking boots to explore the area a little more. Parking was good. Good choice of seating areas. We ordered lunch, my hubster had chicken goujons which looked delicious with a perfectly crisp batter and apparently tasted scummy too. The GF onion rings were yum with perfectly light crispy batter. I ordered the GF fish and chips which were honestly disappointing to look at as not a whole piece of fish as expected but came as 2 strips, the batter was pale, heavy, uninteresting and flat! The batter was definitely not the best but the fish itself was nice. The chips and peas were just yummy. I also ordered the GF dessert of sticky toffee pudding which I can say was the best. Of course as usual, I didn't want to say anything or complain as if I did then my hubster would be eating lunch on his own until mine was prepped and served! The staff were absolutely great, couldn't have been more lovely, We will probably visit again and give the GF option a second chance, as family who are also GF have visited and shown us pics of their GF fish n chips which looked so delicious...fingers crossed next time 😊

Steak pie was not good at all. We went on a week night and all three of us were very dissapointed. On reflection I wish I had returned my meal. Eating out is expensive to be served food below expectation. However Sunday lunch some weeks earlier was delicious
