"After a minute wait to find out what the soup of the day was I made my first mistake of the evening by ordering it. It was delivered to the table after minutes with a skin on. It was accompanied by stale bread and rock hard butter. I had a few mouthfuls of the lumpy grey coloured skin topped liquid and decided to pass, the lukewarm soup it was removed from the table and the main was delivered in the same movement, buttermilk chicken burger which was a dry as the Sahara. The smoked pancetta tasted like an ashtray, have I mentioned how dry it was? After a little of the dry chicken I'd had enough and decided to go to McDonald's instead but not before the last insult was delivered I had to queue for minutes to pay as only one lady was serving behind the bar. I paid and left never to return to this dreadful establishment. To explain my anger this meal was paid for by my employer but it was so bad I feel I have to complain. AVOID AVOID AVOID AVOID AVOID"

I haven't been to this restaurant in a long time and I can't understand why, the food is delicious. The atmosphere is cozy and relaxed in a beautifully renovated mill.

JUST RECOVERED FROM THE WORST CASE OF FOOD POISONING I COULD EVER IMAGINE. WE ATE THERE AS THERE WAS NO WHERE ELSE TO EAT WHEN STAYING AT THE NEARBY PREMIER. BIG REGRET!!! HAVE REPORTED TO ENVIROMENTAL HEALTH. TAKE A TIP, TAKE A TAXI INTO NEARBY BRIGHOUSE WHERE THERE ARE MANY GREAT PLACES TO EAT!!!

I had a wonderful dinner with friends at this restaurant. The service from the waitstaff was excellent. The menu was a bit limited, but that's to be expected right now. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience. It was convenient to be able to park my car without any fees or issues. Kudos to the staff for a job well done.

I would definitely recommend this place for a great night and I am confident that they will not be disappointed. still a thing to add...Herz thanks to the cook for its amazing boar bell

Waited at an empty bar to be served by a surly, rude man with a southern accent (presumably the manager) before being shown to a table. Our drinks were banged down on the bar and not one pleasantry passed his lips. The waitress however was very amenable and attentive. Sadly one of our meals had to be returned as the gammon was undercooked and there was a minute wait for a replacement and he didn't seem interested. The setting is lovely but sadly we will not be returning as our experience was not an enjoyable one. Anon restaurant reviewer

We had a meal on Wednesday this week, the staff were very friendly, said hello as you walked in and made you feel very welcome. Potatoes mashed properly and not the smash mash you usually get in pubs.We were in a corner out of the way, our choice on table, but the servers did not forget about us and come to check everything was ok and did not leave the plates on the table for long after we had finished.The food was excellent and we would like to thank both the servers especially bindi, both friendly, courteous and professional.The sticky toffee pudding to die for, we will definitely return.Also a big thank you to the chef and kitchen staff, best meal out for quite a while

"We booked a table to celebrate my sisters birthday and we were a party of 8 visiting on a Saturday night. To start 2 tomato garlic breads were brought to the table which we didn’t order and were advised that they would be added to the bill. A couple of the starters were ok.. but the pate looked and tasted more like tuna Mayo. These were sent back. Various mains were ordered the steaks were ok, pizzas were salty some had excess cheese and others had no cheese and what looked like raw mushrooms. The spag bol was watery and didn’t really taste of anything and my pasta dish would have tasted better if my 9 year old made it. Also from an Italian that advertise macaroni but get penne isn’t great. Apart from the steaks most dishes were sent back not touched or only slightly eaten. When we advised the staff of our thoughts of the food their attitude completely changed and they were rude. My sister said that they spoiled her birthday night out and the older man said to her … no you spoiled your own birthday. This really is unacceptable when we were giving an honest opinion on the food that we were served. When advising about the spag Bol that my daughter didn’t eat the man said she is just a kid it was fine.. this is how bad it was that my 9 year old that eats anything didn’t eat it. If you are looking for authentic Italian please avoid this restaurant, I have had better and cheaper takeaways."

"Me and my wife popped in for a drink after shopping and realised that Millers had recently been taken over. You can tell the new owners have put some money into the decor and even had a live singer on which was a nice change from before. We had a look at the menu which was small compared to the previous but sounded nice. Unfortunately, from there is where the evening turned sour. I went to the bar to order some food and was left standing waiting to be served for around 10 minutes with staff just ignoring me. I would like to mention I was the only person stood at the bar and three members of staff were there but no acknowledgement. Not even we will just be a minute which I felt was rude. I do understand that they did have large Christmas parties in and most likely were understaffed but still just that they would be a minute would of been nice alternatively hire more staff for busy days before taking bookings. We were told it would be a 30 minute wait for food, which was understandable. It was actually 60 minutes, and when the food arrived, we had to help ourself to napkins and cutlery as we were left. The burger was nice, but the Chicken kebab was cold, and the flatbread was raw, not just a little but really raw. We sent the flatbread back and waited another 5 minutes for a fresh flatbread which again came to the table raw in the middle. The menu also stated Tzatziki but came with Hummus which wasn't pleasant to eat. Overall it was disappointing, I think they need to start thinking of hiring more staff on busy days of the week especially with Christmas around the corner. We both said we won't be returning again for food which is a shame since Millers has always been known for their great customer service and good food."

"Arrived slightly early for our meal and were shown to our table. The pub was almost empty with just another table occupied and a man at the bar. We were asked for our drink order before we had even sat down. The drinks then took an age to come and we could see them on the end of the bar. What the staff were doing when when there was hardly anyone else in is beyond me. Drinks finally delivered. Menu choices were taken some 10 minutes later and the starters arrived aound 15 minutes later. The scallops were tasty especially the crispy chorizo. My husband had the goats cheese which was served with beetroot puree. He said this was tasteless with no taste of beetroot at all. We then sat and waited for the plates to be taken away, and waited, and waited. We also had no drinks left either so needed to re order. It was at this point I thought I would check Trip Advisor to see if anyone else had complained about the incredibly slow service. How I wish we had checked this before and not whilst sat at the table. The latest review was shocking and we were alarmed to see that the pub had only been given a 1 star rating for hygiene by the council inspectors, with the contributor claiming to have suffered food poisoning from the meal. The waitress finally came after 20 minutes and removed our starter plates and took our drink reorder. Main courses arrived I had the ceasar salad as it was an exceptionally hot humid evening. The salad came served in a bowl which had been heated.!! This meant that the lettuce was somewhat limp however, it was tasty overall but certainly not worth the £15 it cost. My husband ordered the 10oz 32 day aged Sirloin Steak, which cost £27. As he orders steak wherever we go, he does know his cuts of steak and did comment that this was a rather cheap cut of meat and had a lot of gristle in it, to the point he left a good quarter of the steak uneaten. Also, everything was coated in salt. The chunky chips were incredibly salty, so was the steak and even the mushrooms were salted. He ordered a glass of Merlot to accompany the steak and this cost a eye watering £8.75..!! We have been here before, although a long time ago and whether it has changed hands since then, I dont know but although the meal was okay, the atmosphere, ambience and the service were terrible. We had intended on having a dessert as this was our wedding anniversary meal but just decided to pay and leave. The bill was over £80 for 2 courses and 2 drinks each (2 of these were soft drinks). We will not be returning and unlikely to recommend."

"Thankfully we only went for dinner, or at least we tried. It would seem that the Stump Cross has gone down hill since I last ate there in 2016-ish. The interior now looks very tired, there is tape sticking down carpets, it feels very sparse. All in all, it feels like a down-market Toby Carver but more expensive (and you don’t get any food, more to follow on that)! We went for a Sunday roast however it was just a bog-standard carvery. Not to worry we thought, the menu online seems to imply quite “posh” food. On the contrary, the Sunday offering is variations of carvery meats with vegetables, and a small selection of other less impressive dishes. Ultimately, we both decided on the Yorkshire pudding wrap, containing beef and gravy, with some roast potatoes on the side. I can’t tell you what it was like, because we waiting almost an hour and no food arrived; we had asked several times and were repeatedly told it was coming out in five minutes In the end, we rang another restaurant to ensure availability, and told the waitress to cancel the order and left. I don’t like leaving negative reviews, but my question is, how can it take almost an hour to put some already cooked meat, in a (most likely) already prepared/cooked Yorkshire pudding and put that on a plate of already cooked potatoes the pub was serving a carvery! The nice lady at the bar was sympathetic and waved the cost for the coffee and coke we’d had. Some sort of service recovery there at least? We definitely will not be returning or recommending.
