Mill End - Menú

An all too brief stop but the Mill End is a lovely hotel with friendly staff that make you feel relaxed. It’s always good, although sadly rare, when your expectations are exceeded.

Eaten here on two occasions and have thoroughly enjoyed the food with a variety of flavours combined with the main dish. The deserts have also shown great imagination and have been delicious.

We have stayed here quite a few times now and each time it gets better. The rooms are very comfortable with excellent facilities. The staff are amazing, very helpful and professional. The food is first class, lots of variety of breakfast choices and Dinner in the evening THE BEST. Looking forward to our next visit. Well done to all on such an excellent experience.

The menu featured four main dishes, but only three of them were actually available. This was quite disappointing considering we had made a reservation two weeks in advance. It was my partner's birthday meal and we were both looking forward to trying the missing dish. Unfortunately, we were informed that it would not be available just 10 minutes after placing our order.

My goodness! What a delightful meal we had here last night. We live nearby and had guests staying with us and we were having difficulty finding a restaurant open for dinner on a Tuesday evening in Winter, until we remembered this charming hotel. From the kind welcome, the drinks, menu reading and warming fire in the lounge, followed by the classic, simply ambiance of the restaurant, the friendly and efficient staff to the truly wonderful food, the whole experience was faultless. We will be back, regularly. Highly, highly recommended.

My family and I visited this restaurant for a family member's birthday celebration. Overall, I was pleased with our experience. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and the Cream Tea was delicious, with plenty of clotted cream and jam for everyone. However, I encountered an issue when I needed to change my son. I was informed that the only changing table was located in the women's restroom, which made me feel unwelcome as a father. Although the staff were kind and made sure the restroom was empty before I went in, this experience would deter us from returning in the future.

We spent four nights at this hotel/restaurant and the main criticism was the limited dinner menu . The pork dish was good but you had to pay extra for vegetables and at one meal the new potatoes definitely tasted re-heated. I am sure this restaurant was fine for a one off meal but not for a stay of over two days. Sauces on the food were too plentiful and strong. Puddings were fine as were the breakfasts. I am not sure how a vegetarian would have coped as the options were even more limited. Beds were lovely and comfy in great surroundings and the staff were excellent but a few extra options in plainer food would have made this place somewhere we would come back to.

My partner and I dined at this restaurant twice during our weekend getaway. While we enjoyed our stay at the hotel, we found the food to be a bit underwhelming. The staff were fantastic, but the wild mushroom gnocchi was extremely salty and almost inedible. We understand that seasoning is subjective, but it seemed like someone had made a mistake or hadn't tasted it before serving. We mentioned this to the wait staff, but didn't receive any follow-up. The fish and chicken dishes were decent, but nothing exceptional. It would have been nice to have another vegetarian or vegan option on the menu. On the bright side, the dark chocolate delice dessert was the highlight of our meals. Overall, it w...
