Here we were quickly met by the lady we had seen momentarily on our way in and I asked if it was possible we could have lunch for two. She was very welcoming and pointed into the restaurant and said we could sit anywhere we wished. She was correct as there were no other customers there. At this point I realised that neither she or the gentleman that had spoken to us earlier were wearing face coverings of any kind. We sat down and shortly afterwards were presented with the menus. We were about to be asked for our contact details and as we were the lady apologised for 'the nonsense' and said 'and of course the virus doesn't even come out after 10 o'clock' to which I said I insist they have our details and enquired where their QR code was being displayed. The lady seemed surprised that I was keen to register but did then show me to a code on the wall which I then used. Most places I have been to recently would either already have a code available on the table or would bring a mobile version to you rather than expect their guests to be moving around the premises any more than they absolutely need to. We ordered two drinks and two main courses being bangers and mash, peas and gravy for my brother and chicken and ham pie, chips and peas for myself. The food took about 40 minutes to arrive during which I did check out the reviews on Tripadvisor which mentioned that the food could take some time but it would be fresh and good. When ours arrived, my brothers looked okay and he ate it. Mine didn't look too good. The pie was mainly a pile of broken pastry under which I found some very dry chicken and a few other pieces of filling. The chips were warm and soggy, like they had perhaps been heated up from frozen but on an oven that was not hot enough. My peas were fine. My brother finished his meal and I ate what I could. I was hungry and by now it was too late to get anything from another venue. I paid and we left. During our time in the building which I would estimate at about 75 minutes we saw three or four staff but no residents or other customers. At no time did we see anyone wearing any sort of face covering. I do not think this venue is taking the Coronavirus situation at all seriously, certainly not at lunchtime with non-resident diners. This alone would be enough to prevent me from returning while the pandemic persists but the attitude of the staff along with the very poor quality of a simple dish after such a long wait is really not something I ever wish to repeat.

  Food was insane, well price and rooms were to amazing Clean and well maintained standard, staff were on top form couldn’t do more than enough for me thank you so... read more much for going above expectations! 100% be there again soon

  Read and heard good things about the hotel so this morning we decided to have breakfast there and was not dissapointed.

The full English comes in 3 sizes, Small... read more (£6), Medium (£7) and large(£8.50) and the large was exactly that.

It was really enjoyable and good value, I must admit I struggled with the large.

The breakfast menu also had bubble and steak and kippers. On offer.

It's diffently worth a visit.

I understand they do Sunday lunches so that's our next visit.

  Good honest basic fare. Service warm and helpful. Fish and chip meal very good. Charming riverside setting. Cosy lounge/bar. Free off road parking. Across road from Museum of... read more Power where exhibits include a huge steam engine

  Had breakfast here this morning and couldn’t fault it.
It was a lovely day so we sat outside by the river.
A little wait for the food but it... read more was cooked to order and great value so well worth it.
Sadly didn’t get names but the two ladies doing all the work (chef & waitress) are lovely and could not do enough for you.
I would happily recommend this place and fully intend to go back for lunch or an evening meal.

A real value for money! Thanks Richard and Carey!!

  Having to work away from home during a pandemic is hardly anyone’s cup of tea. Factor that into decent accommodation being even harder to come by than now a 2kg... read more bag of flour and you start to realise that things are going to get a lot worse before they get better. However having decent accommodation whilst working away can be the difference between a good job and a bad one. Prior to the Mill House we had to spend a week in a well known establishment (won’t say the name, but it rhymes with Gravelodge). Morale was low. So low it was measured in Kelvins. People began putting their hands in deep fat friers just to feel something other than sadness and despair. The Mill House changed all of that. Got a warm welcome immediately upon arrival and being here makes you realise that despite the fact the world is likely to experience the worst global mental and economic depression in human history, there are still things out there to look forward to and that life goes on. Furlough ? How about Fur no.

TL;DR - it’s pretty nice here. More
