Went on a Tuesday night for an 8pm table. Was about 1/3 full. Staff extremely friendly and a lovely welcome, no fault with the service from them but sadly the food didn't live up to expectations. Starters were fine but we each had the lamb main course. We were supposed to get: Herb Crusted Saddle of Bishopswood Lamb, Braised Shoulder,... More

This was our 3rd visit in 2 months and after another fantastic Sunday lunch i felt the need to rave about it. All the staff here are very friendly and helpful. There had been a mix up with our booking,probably my father in laws error but they dealt with this is a professional and efficient manor and had us seated... More

We lunched here on the last day of April. A fine experience - the pub restaurant is light and airy, and the food showed plenty of attention to detail, especially locally sourced - an intriguing chalk map in the foyer telling you where it all comes from. I had a superb set of River Dart mussels served with a garlic... More

Used to be a great restaurant, with great food and service to match..... however, we took my son and girlfriend for Sunday lunch, and were presented with a cold roast dinner, with over-cooked veg and tough beef. When we complained the staff told us that "we were the only ones complaining"....... time to leave!!

We stopped here for a lunch break on our Land's End to John O'Groats trip this Easter. It was slightly posher thanb our usual cafes but we couldn't go much further without eating. I think the chap in charge was a bit taken aback initially by 4 sweaty cyclists! That said, we mentioned we were in a bit of a... More

What a lovely place to eat. On our arrival we were warmly welcomed by staff and given the choice of table. Within ten minutes of ordering our meals were ready and looking very appetising. We were not disappointed, the food was delicious and plenty of it. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone.

Met with a friendly welcome & a warming fire. Interesting & varied menu, mainly of locally sourced produce. I was very impressed with the Ox Cheek served on a bed of mashed potatoe, very tender & full of flavour. Cheese board also very good, made up mainly of Gloucestershire produced cheeses. Comfortable surroundings & friendly pleasant service. Good local beers... More

I have visited and reviewed the Mill Race before but hadn't been there for about 18 months. We decided to take our son and daughter in law thee for dinner but then they read a couple of reviews on Trip Advisor and wondered why I'd booked. I stuck by my guns and was so glad I did! We had a... More

From start to finish i was overwelmed with how classy this place was, the food although pricey was worth every penny. Clean cutlery,plates and glasses, crisp napkins. Polite knowledgeable staff.
