"This restaurant has the potential to be a great place to visit, but it is disappointing to see that the market is not vibrant and full of traders. It seems like whoever manages this place needs to think more broadly and make some changes. Adding antique, vintage, and more food stalls could liven up the space and make it a more worthwhile destination. There is plenty of parking near the Mill, so filling up the car park with a variety of stalls could attract more visitors. The large barn is currently not worth a visit, and the cafe's limited and unimaginative menu is overpriced. Adding a few nice sofas upstairs is not enough to make up for this lack of variety. It's a shame that this place is not living up to its potential, but with some changes, it could become a successful market and dining destination."

Great food in a super setting. Excellent coffee and tasty snacks next to the river. Interesting art and original mill workings make this a great local destination. Superb!

A friend and I met for lunch at the Mill cafe and really enjoyed a sausage bap for our lunch. Reasonable value for money and a pleasant place ti catch up. Lots of plans in the pipeline which will enhance the whole site.

My wife and I make it a point to visit this restaurant as often as we can. It is always a delightful experience with a pleasant atmosphere, delicious food, and fantastic service. Thank you, and we look forward to visiting again soon! - Laurie and Kate Wallis View menu

Walked down to go to the artisan market and thought we’d also have a coffee. 15 minute queue to be then told it would be 15 minute wait for coffee! Ridiculous. You had around 4 staff on. It takes 30 seconds to make a coffee. Get them trained and get organised!

Beautiful place, sadly not running at its full potential. I’ve dropped in four or five times with friends over the last two months. We’ve had coffee, cakes and sandwiches( toasties) cakes are dry, sandwiches are a soggy mess on overly dry toast. People are not the friendliest. So much more could be done with a little more effort.

We visited the cafe based on local recommendations, but we personally wouldn't recommend it. The food choices were not very imaginative and definitely overpriced. There was a lack of atmosphere, it was freezing cold, and there were no menus on the tables. On the bright side, the staff was very efficient. Perhaps it would be nicer in the summer, but we have no plans to return. View menu

Bromham is such a lovely village and the Mill compliments it so well. A unique place to visit with nice walks and a fairy trail for the small children. Very pet friendly and good free car parking. The cafe is a treat. Go upstairs and you will find comfy leather chesterfields and some interesting history of the mill. The drinks are very good and the food fresh and very tasty. The staff are very friendly and welcoming . Highly recommended .

We visit this site every few months with our young granddaughter Fairy Trail a favourite with her, and well worth a visit if you have young children. Also a good location for dog walkers. Usually call in at the cafe which is pleasant but have often thought it was an under developed resource. Recent visits suggest whoever runs this is now in agreement as the cafe seems to be developing. On this occasion we stopped for lunch and had a very pleasant meal. It is, I feel, a bit pricey but the food was very tasty, well presented and served swiftly. Plenty of staff on duty and they were very pleasant and efficient. Would recommend.

"Reminiscing about the great time we had at this place last night! We spent the weekend in Bedford visiting relatives and decided to book this place, because we’re big pizza fiends and the reviews meant it made sense! Have not stopped thinking about the food all day! If you’re lucky enough to know what a proper Neapolitan pizza tastes like and have been chasing the dream of tasting it again… look no further! If you haven’t been to Naples before, then this place takes you there and back in one evening! This is hands down the best pizza outside of Naples! In fact I would go as far as to say that it could easily hold its own amongst the 100s of pizzerias in its birth City! The restaurant itself is casually quirky… named after the owner’s mother, with photos to couple that offer a little glimpse into the owners background with Italian memorabilia for days… including a real vesper hanging on a shelf from the ceiling, you’re hit with the scent of the wood fired oven as soon as you walk through the doors letting you know instantly that you’re in for a treat… the real deal! The relaxed, but upbeat vibe coupled with the warm and attentive welcome and service from the owner and the staff meant it was only fair to start with a round of Aperol Spritzes, which was followed by a number of bottles of delicious Primitivo throughout the meal that ultimately led to some singing and dancing at the end of our meal! We allowed the owner to recommend lots of things off the menu to share and boy did he not disappoint! Everything from pizzas, to pizza rolls to bruschetta meant that we were all able to try the classic Neapolitan pizza base with various different flavours! Highly recommend trying the Pizza Tartufo if you like truffle! I’m Italian and visit Naples most years and the pizza base is up there with the best I’ve tried! Hats off to the pizzaiolas as mastering this culinary delight is not easy! The pork meatballs in tomato sauce and oven roasted cracked pepper and salty ribs were delicious! But aside from the extremely high quality of the pizzas it was a bowl full of cheese and charcuterie that stole the show! Imagine a huge ball of creamy burrata that when cut open released loads of tiny balls of morzarella! It was truly next level! I have never seen or tasted anything quite like it! We finished with a round of espressos and some traditional Italian pastries, which were out of this world! We had such a lovely evening from the food to the wine, service to the vibe it really was exceptional! The only thing I wasn’t happy about was leaving, knowing that this restaurant isn’t on my doorstep! The only saving grace is the avoided damage it would do to my waistline if it was, as I would be here every weekend! Cannot wait to go back!"
