Corn Mill in Denbighshire

Lovely location and good food reasonably priced. But very poor initial impressions. Meet and great non existent, staff just ignore you.

The pub was stunning plus the views of the river, were absolutely breathtaking, the food was fabulous, you can eat healthy there too which is great.

The range of starters was varied and all looked interesting. I had a salad of roasted aubergines, peppers with a hummus base and candied pecans. Very tasty and a meal in itself. The cheese and potato pie was also great as was the chocolate posset with raspberry sorbet.

Despite booking a table in advance there was no record of our booking....got into a discussion and told three times you've obviously not booked it in your name.. Drinks were ordered and arrived quickly, order taken no problem. But it took 50 minutes to arrive with no apology. Fair play food was cooked well but again not home chips, they were frozen.. Disappointed with levels of service

Wonderful find. Sat in the sun with our dog and enjoyed amazing food. Particularly enjoyed the lamb suet pudding. After such a busy weekend it was great that everything was available on the menu. Fantastic. Very very friendly service too.

We stopped off for drinks 🍸 while having a look around Llangollen and enjoyed our visit, good selection of beers 🍻. Small bar area but makes up for it with a large decking area overlooking the river, lovely on a nice day.

lovely pint great old pub loadsa character watched my mates come down the rapids

This pub is absolutely mad in the best way! Literally everything is amazing, atmosphere, food, service, the whole shabang. Do yourself a favour lol and pop in for a great time, especially if you’re hungry!

I've been here twice in 1 week and didn't take 1 photo 😅. A truly beautiful place to sit and have a drink or some food. Right next to the river, it's lovely! Service was fantastic, as was the food! And it's dog friendly which is a bonus if you have a furry friend 😁.

Busy but lovely on a nice Saturday

The food of England has to be tried for the first time in your life exactly here! It is a beautiful restaurant - a great chef, a natural setting with spectacular views and the restaurant itself (former mill) furnished and decorated with great style! I hope I can return sometime!

Amazing food and not too expensive x

No parking right outside, dogs allowed but no kids play area, no loud music, BRILLIANT! This is our second B&P pub and they were both lovely buildings in lovely locations. The view of the river and old railway is very picturesque, the service pleasant discreet with friendly staff. The menu is varied enough for most tastes and the of good quality. We eschewed the cool evening on the outside decked area in favour of the warm middle floor with its big windows and cosy atmosphere. All in all, it was a very pleasant place to spend an evening, with plenty of parking up the road.

It was a wonderful dining experience. The food was excellent, and my child enjoyed it as well. The staff were exceptional; they were both understanding and polite. Kudos to the entire team.

Overall 10/10 experience, starting from very friendly and attentive staff, great food, ambience within and outside the place, very hygienic toilets, enough sitting area within and by the river side. We just walked in but they accommodated us.

Best spot in Llan! Lovely food and beer 🍻 A must visit!

Really delicious food, friendly service and a fantastic position on the River Dee - perfect. Try the dark chocolate posset with raspberry sorbet - just fabulous!

Everything about this restaurant is fabulous, Ellen who looked after us went above and beyond, she was friendly, helpful with gluten free options and very professional keeping everyone happy on a very busy service. The food was gorgeous, highly recommend the gf fish and chips but I have to say the absolute treat was the gluten free lamb suet pudding starter - it was devine, I'd actually drive 2 hours from home in Worcestershire to come and dine with you again - well done everyone, keep up the fantastic work, other restaurants can learn alot from you 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

The staff are very welcoming with excellent service. Food was excellent.

Recommend booking a table. We came here on a Sunday for my Birthday lunch. Food not cheap but excellent quality. Had the cheese,onion & potato pie & hubby had The pork & all the trimmings. Delicious. We'll be back when we visit the area again

I am local and been to the Corn Mill loads and loads of times,but not since they have been taken over by the new owners.It was fantastic ,but we went there for my husbands birthday. I have never been so upset and disappointed. I had a beef burger it was really thick and very very firm but no taste.The base was mush instead of bread and the cheese was supposed to have been Montaray Jack ,but it wasn't. it was tasteless and melted completely into the bread It was put onto the plate and a dollop of chips at the side. No garnishes at all it was absolutely disgusting. We waited for ages and ages for the meal , we came 12.15 I know 2 people were late but we didn't finish until gone 4 because they were busy and couldn't cope with the amount of people. I will never go there again and it is so sad because it has been 1 of the most fantastic restaurants around here. Ruined completely

Very disappointed with my visit. Overpriced for mediocre food & service. Refunded one of the meals & left hungry.

Disappointed. The Cornmill is in a lovely setting, and the lady serving us friendly but ...as 5 hungry customers with a normal booking, which is a 'timed slot' our visit didn't go as smoothly as planned. Requested on menu starters not available.Main course served after a wait of 1hour 20 mins Roast potatoes were not properly roasted, slightly hard in the middle, same with chips on one meal. The fish and chips meal, hake by the way was not clarified on menu, it seemed tainted but could have been the oil. There was a vegetable missing off one of the roast dinners, this was cleared away at 2.45pm. Dessert was fine for three of us, but again one couldn't get his requested choice. We were then told the table was booked for 3.15pm and basically felt we had to get a move on. So our idea of coffee, maybe a nice liqueur to follow was a none starter. All in all as stated we were all disappointed.

Busy place even on a Tuesday night, we eat on the 2nd floor. My lamb and my wife's steak were both very good, service was nice and friendly. Room was warm and comfortable. All in all, a very good dining experience.

The staff found us a table on spec and we weren't disappointed. Thoroughly good food, drink and experience; topped of with great staff!

Absolute class setting, food and staff.

The place was closing down for a refurb two days after we had been there, and you would not think it needed it. The place was so clean and maintained before been refurbished. The staff was great. We went back three days to drink and eat.

Disappointed. Waited an hour for starter then another hour for main meal and had to ask where the missing meal was. When it arrived it was not presented well on the plate. Need to revise service urgently. Staff though very pleasant.

The Corn Mill is a fantastic pub/restaurant in a beautiful setting, right in the heart of Llangollen. We had our evening meal there three times during our holiday week, each time the food was superb. The service was excellent and the staff were so friendly and welcoming. We can't wait to go back.

Lovely pub sitting next the the river beautiful views lovely to just sit and watch the river flow by . You need to see the sights so don't take my word do see for your self

Fabulous viewing terrace over the river Dee

Great restaurant situated in beautiful spot. Fantastic food quality and great service. Recommend

Helen was absolutely fantastic. Brilliant hospitality, beautiful place. Thank you very much!

Before I say anything else, regardless of my rating, I'd encourage people to try the Corn Mill because the food I thought was really nice, the building is in a lovely spot, great atmosphere, and the staff are friendly. I'm sorry to say though, the service was OK-at best-for our group of 4 booking at 7pm on the 8th March. It was busy initially when we arrived but had quietened down within the hour. Despite that, long delays between courses and a long wait for drinks. 3 drinks orders were wrong, 1 cold starters, several side orders missing after 30 minutes or so of receiving mains. We were on an upper floor; felt as if we'd been forgotten or were the last on their list to serve. I don't see how we could've been the last booking of the night either. I'd book it again though as I really hope it's just a one-off with the service.

Love coming here when passing through Llangollen - loads of choice on the menu, service today was superb, and the place itself has a stunning view of the river and railway.

Went for a Sunday roast. Would have been 5 star for everything as the Sunday roast was extremely good. Unfortunately we had a very long delay before being served, and not really kept informed.

Visited recently with friends for Sunday roast. The building itself is lovely, with multiple floors and plenty of seating and views of the river. The food is great and staff friendly. Constructive feedback: If you’ve not been before it’s not quite clear on where you’re supposed to go (we just ended up going to the bar, then the bar upstairs) and seemingly no matter where you do go you seem to be in someone’s way! Service also seemed fairly slow, the place is obviously very large so semi expected but be wary if you’re particularly hungry or want a quick bite.

What a beautiful setting to feel like you're on the river. We arrived in good time and we were greeted by friendly staff. We were seated at our table in good time. Once we ordered our food, we waited, and we waited. It became too long a wait. It became uncomfortable as we all wanted to eat. When our food eventually arrived, it was tasty enough, but unfortunately, the wait was so long that a few of us didn't enjoy the offerings as we would've otherwise. We decided not to go back

The CornMill is in a great spot right on the river. Booked Sunday lunch, we arrived ahead of schedule but there was no drama in getting us to our table early. A great table for 2 by a window overlooking the river. Shoulder of Lamb was lovely as were the Brownie and Apple Crumble puddings, all served quickly and with a smile. Not cheap but you get what you pay for and I would certainly return and recommend. Thanks Corn Mill !

Bit pricy , but where isn't these days

Service was very slow and the food was average at best. The soup was warm and the smoked mackrell salad was OK, but the lettuce was about 3 days old. The location was fabulous.

From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was nothing short of delightful. Our French waitress was lovely and had funny jokes, adding a personal touch to the experience with her friendly and attentive service. ensured we were well taken care of throughout our meal. And the food? Simply amazing. Each dish was crafted with care and bursting with flavor, leaving me eager for the next bite. I highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to enjoy a meal in a relaxed yet refined setting. I'll definitely be returning!

What a fabulous experience! We booked on line about 10 minutes before arriving and the place was packed! But you really didn't feel it. Bartender gave us two gin and tonic to enjoy overlooking the water while we waited briefly for our table. The meal was excellent. Discovered Skink Soup (delish) and they did a great lamb shank.

Amazing food! Superb atmosphere! Immense view! Staff are really helpful

Good food, but busy….probably because the food is good

Historic pub on the river Dee, popular with both tourists and locals. Several levels and outside space right on the river. Servers gourmet food made with quality ingredients, and has a lengthy wine list and several real ales on offer.

Beautiful food with great views

Most excellent pub by the river Dee, great food, good ale, friendly staff and very cozy atmosphere.

A proper pub plus a great restaurant. The pub part is in the old Mill, very atmospheric with friendly staff and excellent beers. The restaurant part looks out over the river and dishes up some wonderful food. So great for a pint or a full blown meal. Perfect.

An atmospheric gastro pub by the river. For a change we both picked the same mains, a wild boar & pork pie. I very much enjoyed it. The service was very quick. We followed this up with a delicious bread & butter pudding. These were washed down with Welsh beer.

Lovely food and beautiful views. Staff very attentive to my food intolerance (thankyou) The only downside was a limited wine list and very sugary wine

Beautiful food in a lovely setting.

Very busy pub on a saturday night but the staff went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had what we needed

Cauliflower soup was amazing. Belly pork starter was beautiful. Roast beef dinner very nice but wld have been better with thicker tastier gravy. Staff very helpful, polite and attentive. Definitely recommend

A riverside restaurant with nice food and atmosphere

Lovely pub by the river with fantastic outdoor decking platform over the river. Dog friendly. Just had coffee and hot chocolate but nicely presented with a cheeky flapjack. Food others were having looked great. Staff friendly and service quick even though very busy on half term weekend.

Fantastic. Lovely river views. Hidden away in a little street just to the right after crossing the bridge

Server was fantastic with our little one. Food came at a good speed. Food was lovley. There was no complaints from us

A visit to the “Corn Mill” was recommended to us in the travel guide and in the hotel. I was worried that it might be a “tourist trap”. On the contrary… I can thoroughly recommend a visit! The service is quick and very friendly! First we wanted to order 2 side salads. Luckily the waiter pointed out to us that the portion was very large. At this point, thank you again! Results in a large selection of beers, including regional ones. The food was very tasty. For example, we had a shoulder of lamb and fish and chips. The comb was very delicate. The breading of the fish was particularly crispy! In addition, the restaurant is in a great location, right on the river. The atmosphere is terrific. The building used to be an old mill! All in all, we can only recommend a visit!

Food - service - drink , all very good Thank you

Fantastic evening at The Cornmill last night. Lovely, friendly and welcoming staff and absolutely amazing food. Quite a brilliant find! Thanks to everyone, we will be back in the future.

Lovely pub great views amazing food great atmosphere all in all can’t fault the corn mill

A steak burger in the Corn Mill used to be something special. I haven’t been for a while but when we visited this weekend I ordered my old favourite but this time when it arrive I was greeted with an average looking burger and a plate of chunky chips. No coldslaw, no salad on the burger. The burger its self tasted better than it looked but not like they used to and the chips were definitely not fresh and reheated at least once. The deserts were fine but we won’t be rushing back. Food seemed substandard compared to meals there in the past. Shame.

Lovely pub with great food. Staff very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately the service was extremely slow which let's it down. Definitely not a place to go if you are pushed for time. But if you have time to linger, pay it a visit

We got the table that we requested overlooking the River Dee which was flowing quite strongly. Despite being, still, winter the views over luncheon were amazing with lots of nature activity and was very romantic. The food served was good with varied menu and the service was good also with a smile. I would recommend this great venue but would suggest you book to get the table that you require. There is, also, outside seating for during the summer

Beautiful spot by the river and super friendly atmosphere, lovely old school furniture, possible to book a table online

My new fav pub. Food here is exceptional. Duck Confit is perfectly done. Chef knows their stuff. Pre-book to guarantee table, although we were seated without booking, on a busy Saturday. Decent Ales/ Porter / Cider on tap. Nice outside area to enjoy the rapids below.

Excellent food and very good service. Several locals spent time chatting to us which was lovely. Dog friendly pub.

"I rarely leave reviews, but our experience at this restaurant was so disappointing that I felt compelled to share it. My fiancé and I waited 45 minutes for our food, and when it arrived, the only item that was hot was a burger. Everything else, including my fiancé's meal and the fries, was cold. We also had a poor experience with dessert — the service was just as bad. To make matters worse, they offered us an £8 discount due to their mistakes, but when I paid £50 for a £48 bill, they didn't even bother to return the £2 change. If £2 mattered enough for them to discount the meal, why didn't it matter to them to return it? This was truly the worst dining experience we've had, and I would not recommend this place to anyone." This version is clear, professional, and concise while still expressing your frustration. Let me know if you need any changes!

Great service, amazing food and lovely surroundings. Very easy online booking process. Great it’s a dog friendly pub but struggled to hear our conversation at times because of high pitched barking/ yapping. On a very positive note, the Malaysian curry was fantastic! 👏🏻

Always a lovely meal at The Cornmill, a great stop off for lunch after a fabulous walk up to Castell Dinas Bran.

Used to be our favourite restaurant and it’s sentimental to us. It’s where we had our first date. But the last few times we’ve been it has been awful. Food hasn’t been very warm. Even when the restaurant is pretty empty, you get sat in a tiny space right up against the wall. Spend about £90 every which is too expensive for a lacklustre meal. I’d recommend going somewhere else until they fix whatever issues they’re having.

Great fish and chips, nice place overall and super nice staff!

Always lovely whenever we go in!! Staff are so welcoming and the drink and food are great quality! 10/10 Sunday Roasts

I saw this Pub from the bridge when visiting Llangollen recently and thought I had to go and see inside. When we got there, I needed to have a little look outside from the balcony, and WOW..the views were incredible! Inside the pub felt clean and tidy and we were welcomed by any colleague that saw us. We ordered drinks at the bar and went to our table. The only negative of this whole visit was the cleanliness of the Guinness glass.. Now onto the food, we wanted some light bites and the menu had excellent options. The food came out in good time and was beautiful…and I mean all of it! In summary, excellent food, awesome service, warm, friendly atmosphere. Would I visit again..? Absolutely! If you are visiting, get yourself in there and enjoy the smile on your face at the end 😁

Just popped in to break up a journey. I've not been before. The building is lovely and it's bang on the river. You get to watch people battling the rapids in canoes as you relax at a table. I ended up having a couple of absolutely delicious real ales. The staff were lovely. It was quite busy food-wise. I'm guessing booking a table might be a plan especially in season

Friendly staff. Quick service. Flat bread was beautiful. Stunning views

The Corn Mill is brilliantly situated right alongside the River Dee at Llangollen, close to the bridge. The interior is mainly wood in keeping with the original use of the building as, yes, an actual corn mill. On the day of our January midweek visit, the river was fast and high so quite noisy. The staff are pleasant, helpful and the food was good. I can recommend the light bite Open Smoked Salmon sandwich, served with a generous amount of dressed leaves and crisps. A no nonsense coffee added to my pleasure. I hope to return on a balmy summer's day to take advantage of the extensive outside deck area above the river.

Called at the Corn Mill for lunch having pre booked a table in a mobility friendly area, which the staff were very helpful with. We had a really nice meal, it was fairly busy but the staff were very helpful. Fabulous position on the banks of the River Dee

A romantic early evening dinner, lovely table . views, warm,,,nice welcome,,long long wait for dinner,,, My lamb dinner was chewy, was expecting a lamb bone, but the white bone was set adrivift in a sea of lamb scrags, Patronising sever with assured me it was not a ready meal,,,I have had better, This is a tourist trap, passing themselves as a restaurant,,.

Beautiful pub and views over the river. Highly recommend

Always a pleasure to visit definitely a place to go back too

Great food and lovely service.

When wanting a treat out, this is still our favourite place, food is always delicious, and menu regularly changes, keeping it fresh and lovley to try different dishes, I tend to have the pies, chicken and tarragon was my favourite, but all delicious, hot waffle is super scummy if you can fit it in. Staff fantastic as well.

Went for my 50th, stunning little place, very beautiful views, and original wheel, which wasn't able to see as I'm disabled. very up and down levels, we had to go in round the back as too many stairs. I gave the food 1 * as I informed the waitress that the BUTTERMILK CHICKEN WAS VERY SPICY and I couldn't eat it. She went and told the chef, I asked what he said, and she said he didn't say anything. NO, sorry, or anything, and it's not mentioned on the menu. my son, who was looking forward to going as he's is a chef, said he would have said sorry at least, so basically everyone had a lovely meal apart from myself and son girlfriend who had and said the same went home hungry. NO DISCOUNT OR OFFER OF ALTERNATIVE, OR APOLOGY, YAY, thanks. HAPPY BIRTHDAY to me. unfortunately, we will be going somewhere else that gives a white, we spent £300 + SHAME REALLY as my family of 6 spent a lot of money there. More fool us.

Enjoyed a new year's eve meal at The Corn Mill Llangollen . Busy night with both drinkers and diners but felt like we were special by the staff . Some wonderful finishes to make our experience special . Both my wife and myself highly recommend and will return .

My favorite restaurant in Wales. The decor upstairs feels like you’re dining in a cottage. The waitstaff are friendly and attentive. I had the best Boeuf Bourguignon, but I believe they called it something else. Intense, rich flavor where the suggested house red paired nicely. Highly recommend! And the location can’t be beat. A nice walk along the river after dinner made for a perfect evening.

We called in for lunch, we didn’t have a booking but they found us a table. The food was lovely, very fresh and lots of choice. The bar area is very cosy and we had a lovely table over looking the water. The staff were also lovely, there was a lady who had worked there for years who was so attentive and came to chat with us, we had a lovely time here and it’s definitely worth a visit if you are in Llangollen but don’t forget to book as it’s always so busy

Very poor NYE. Starters took over an hour to come. Mains took an hour and fifteen. Zero atmosphere, lights were really bright and no background music. Real feel of the team there just trying to get to the end of the Christmas period. Food was reasonable

Food not as good as it used to be in past

Beautiful setting by the river and lovely historic decor. The menu was great and cooked to perfection. Service was the icing in the cake. Can't wait to go back.

Excellent food, great service, lovely location

Very disappointed as I was looking forward to eating here. We booked a table at 730 arrived on time and were promptly seated. We ordered our food and got a glass of still water and a small bottle of sparkling. That's the last we saw of anyone. Sat there for over 59 minutes. Not a single person came to see how we were doing, did we need anything or offer any explanation. Absolutely no sign of a manager at any point. Stopped at the bar to pay £2.50 for the sparkling water and left. Oh well. I can understand if they are busy with large groups, parties or whatever. I wasn't too impressed with being completely ignored for nearly an hour.

We only called in for a drink on this occasion. The atmosphere was very Chrismasey and lovely and warm inside. Stunning location right on and over the river Dee

Lovely atmosphere and dog friendly. We really enjoyed the tasty food 😋

This is our second year we've enjoyed a Christmas Eve meal here. We had the most wonderful table with delicious food, the staff & service was fabulous & our waitress was very polite & friendly...couldn't have been more helpful. Absolutely love it here!

The best river view in Llangollen.

Lovely tasty meal,thoroughly recommended.

Amazing food, great prices… not much more to say.

Great beer choices & meals. The lamb shoulder was particularly good.
