Fromebridge Mill in Stroud

Pam was fab , so friendly + helpful , great food + service Thankyou! We will definitely be back again the carvery was so tasty

We visit this place most Sundays for a carvery and it's one of the best we've ever had. The food and service is always great, loafs of choice of veg and three choices of meat with generous portions of the meat, all cooked to a high standard. Sarah the manager is always welcoming. Well worth the money and would highly recommend.

Our last meal here was an absolute disgrace, following discussions with Sara ( manager ), we agreed to visit and give them a chance to improve their standards and get back to first class. I am very pleased to say Fromebridge mill was clean, cutlery sparkling, meal excellent, hot and served perfectly, waitress could have done nothing more to improve our meal, she was excellent and friendly, nothing to much trouble…….will be happy to visit this establishment and promote it again at this vastly Improved standard, thank you Sara, keep up the standard, this is a winner ….

Had a carvery today have to say it’s the best I’ve had in ages and the chef was on top of his game well done will definitely be coming back

Fantastic food and service. The carvery was spectacular. Good child food selection and quick service. Really nice setting as well even in the autumn rain.

The four of us visited again on 5th October and as expected, our food was absolutely fantastic and excellent value for money. The Fromebridge Mill is consistently brilliant and although this is the first review I've left, we've dined here many times. The table was all ready, laid out and spotless when we arrived and as usual, the bar and waiting staff couldn't have been more helpful with a wide selection of drinks on tap. Marvin their head chef was looking after the carvery and ensuring everything was piping hot, cooked to perfection and served with a beaming smile as he made sure everyone was well looked after, nothing was too much trouble. This is without a doubt one of the very best venues around a significant area of Gloucestershire for the quality, selection and value for money of the carvery, it could quite easily be the absolute top. The usual menu doesn't disappoint either with an excellent selection of dishes and desserts to choose from. Not all of us had room for desserts (you can always share one though) and they were so nice, one was started before I had time to snap the photo! The Fromebridge Mill is really easy to find, just a few moments from Junction 13 of the M5 with a huge, free car park and plenty of space for a walk and to exercise dogs. Book a table and visit as soon as you can, you'll be absolutely thrilled and won't leave there hungry, I guarantee it.

Lovely old sympathically restored building. With the old mill workings visible inside. Right by the water. Indoor dog friendly area to eat. Plenty of parking too. A friend had the mushroom and ale pie. We had carvery. All lovely, plenty meat and lots of veg choice.

Great food best I have had in ages and tge staff were exemplary and really cared about there customers. Will be back thankyou everybody.

Please bring back the mussels on the menu! I thought this was the signature dish of the place. Otherwise, lovely building, and the staff is very welcoming to humans and dogs!

This place is absolutely stunning, the river Frome underneath you as you walk over the bridge. The food has always been lovely, we always get the carvery. The people are so friendly every time. It's a big, proper, old-fashioned pub.

Nice place good food for the price

Arrived 1830. Paid for the carvery, only to be told no beef, little turkey, and gammon available. Managed to get turkey and gammon, but meagre portions, huge Yorkshire puddings that fill half the plate. Finished my veg and went for more vegetables only to be told that you only get one pass at the carvery. At 2000 hours a vast amount of every vegetable was disposed of. Shame, as at other carvery restaurants you can go as many times as you want fo

We had Sunday carvery l did book a table we sat near the watermill rather cold l did go to use toilet at that end of the room totally disgusted l did complain to one of the staff at the bar it was rectified by a young staff member a lot of people were also cold in that area

Came here today for a carvery with my family and can't put into words how good the experience was. The food was top-notch, one of the best roasts I've had in a very long time. Service was excellent and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Highly recommended will definitely be returning when we next are up that way.

We hadn't been here in years. We stopped going because it used to be absolutely rammed with tables and chairs. Navigating to get to the bar or loo was a nightmare. Things are a lot easier now. Staff were friendly and knew the business and their jobs. I've dropped one star on service simply because I would have preferred to order at the table. Everything else was absolutely fine, including the 'gluten-free' menu. This made ordering a lot easier when you have a coeliac person in your group. Good choice of pub meals, cooked and presented well. 2 of our group really liked the katsu curry.

Beautiful place and beautiful carvery to

Lovely food, we chose the lighter bites menu. Portions were of a good size, served hot and tasted delicious. Staff were friendly, but no one came to ask how our meals were. It was busy but not overly. We would return as the food and atmosphere were great.

Usual good value food as usual for the Greene King group. Abbott ale was not too well looked after. Toilet was tiny (I couldn't get into the one seated one as it was so small) and the whole toilet was totally inadequate for a busy pub.

Carvin Marvin is the man. 10/10

We held my daughters baby shower in the upstairs room , the staff were so friendly and above helpful , Gerald who was looking after us was brilliant and nothing was too much trouble , thank you to him and all the staff it was a amazing day xx

Food and service was very disappointing tonight which is unusual. Both meals were luke warm and the chips were cold. The waitress brought us new chips each after a long wait and we had eaten the rest of our meals. I ordered on the app too which took ages to arrive. Also, Greene King has just changed the menu and there doesn't appear to be as much choice - bring back the crispy chicken in a basket!!! May be giving Fromebridge Mill a miss for a while.

Had the best carvery today served by Marvin the best carvery chef around and the best bar staff her name was Carly

Us girls have our monthly catch up here and all I can say the food is great... Staff are amazing helpful and friendly.... Always a friendly happy and Welcoming pub.... Have my birthday party coming up soon and I have booked the function room can't wait.... Well done Sarah and your team

Nice place for a quick lunch, in a lovely setting.

Great carvery again thank you Marvin it always a pleasure to visit

Excellent carvery, and super friendly staff.

My wife and I had lunch today my wife had the carvery which was excellent and I had a 3 course meal off the light meal menu £10.99 this was also excellent value

Having moved away from the area 15 years ago, decided to take my wife there as we were in the area, especially as it was a Greene King pub. The place was filthy, cobwebs and big spiders everywhere, quite off putting. The food was pricey. My wife had lasagne, it didn’t come with chips but you could have a “large” salad instead of garlic bread. My wife wanted salad and an extra portion of chips. I had gammon and chips. My gammon was fine, even came with pineapple and a fried egg. The lasagne portion was really small and looked like it had been made days before and reheated. It was supposed to have cheese on it, not that you could tell. My wife ended up leaving half of it because it was so awful. Her salad was small and mainly red onion with a few green leaves. The toilets had seen better days in keeping with the run down nature of the place. Overall, really disappointing and not what I remembered. We won’t be going again.

Great food thanks Marvin and tracy

A nice Sunday dinner for a good price

Nice food, pleasant staff and not outrageously expensive

Best Carvery ive had. You must come and try Roast Potatoes with beef dripping. Well done to Chef Marvin for producing fantastic meal

Marvin on the carvery is friendly and happy and has service with a smile!

Busy but good had nice carvary but they had ran out gammon

Had the lamb shank, was really tasty. Coming back 100%

Amazing roast carvery served by Marvin, a friendly chef, great price too, and you can’t beat this location

Lovely canal side pub food was not as good as it used to be It was very busy the girls serving were running around a bit more attention to detail

All I can say is Marvin the chef is a brilliant chef

Was busy, but understandable as the staff and food (Sunday carvery) was amazing. The chef Marvin was a delight. Always smiling and joking even though it was very hot behind the counter. Lovely experience with delicious food.

Good food. Value for money. Worth a visit

Had carvery today - Tuesday afternoon. Roast potatoes and parsnips over cooked hard and quite black. Sprouts bit hard. Meat was nice tho. Disappointed.We’ve had other good meals here tho

Met with family here for lunch and ate outside on the terrace which was very nice.

We had what I consider to be the best carvery from a pub chain ever. Marvin the chef was amazing serving up really fresh veg and outstanding quality meat.The staff were very friendly and there was a such a lovely atmosphere. The place is lovely inside and out. I would reccomend you try Marvin's carvery as you will NOT be disappointed. Thank you to all the staff especially Marvin the top chef.

My husband and I went to the Frombridge Mill for carvery today. We hadn't booked prior to visiting and it was extremely busy. All tables were booked inside until 3pm. We found a table outside. My husband reserved it while I waited in the queue. The queue was long but the staff were quick and efficient. I ordered our food and drinks and we collected our meal. There was a wide variety of meat, potatoes and vegetables and the gravy was delicious. £12.99 for a delicious Sunday roast was great value. The outside seating area is well maintained and staff were polite, friendly and efficient. We will definitely visit again

Once again a great carvery well worth the drive up from chipping sodbury. Marvin is a gem and takes so much pride in the quality and presentation of his food.came up with my partner and our 2 friends all very happy. 5 star's see you again soon.

Good food good service and friendly staff

Good service..my risotto was not fully cooked. No quibbling offered something else instead. All done in a friendly manner .

Keep changing prices to suit the day. We arrived table double booked for carvery so lots of Queues 1st booking next paying next getting meal then the plates for older generation £7.5 has been removed can only get £12.50 plates children under 14 can get them so would avoid this place there are better cheaper places just up the road without all this hassle

Would recommend the carvery Very good 👌

Absolutely great! Beautiful food and fantastic staff x

Ok for what you pay for not outstanding but nice atmosphere and surroundings

Very busy, could have done with a few more people behind the bar but the staff were excellent and the food was good. Lovely location

Very good food, most enjoyable.

Excellent service knowledgeable staff extensive gluten free menu very busy this weekend however queuing wasn't that long and polite bar staff to apologise for the wait seated quickly in the bar/museum area which is dog friendly 30 min wait on food which was all cooked fresh and absolutely amazing. Well done to the kitchen staff and all other staff for a lovely meal and friendly service 5 star again will keep coming back.

Been past many times over the years but never been in until the other day, the place is set off the road so you don't hear the sound of vehicles driving past, the place has waters falls and a weir, very nice old building and very dog friendly that you can take the dogs in to and not leave them outside, got greeted on entry and shown to the table, food is very nice, I had the stake, that was amazing, staff come around a few times to make sure we everything was ok, definitely recommend going there and will be going there again

Enjoyed our meal & staff were friendly and efficient. It just felt like the pub itself needed a little tlc it was looking a little tired.

Absolutely disgusting sausages and the lasagne was way too salty. Atmosphere spoiled by too many kids running around. We won't be going back. The reply from the operator emphasises that they are a family friendly venue. I would just point out that my wife and I are just a much as family as any other. It wasn't very friendly to us.

Just had the best carvery at Fromebridge Mill. Massive shout out to Marvin. He is the best chef, so polite and really lovely to chat to. You make this place Gold standard

Great service as soon as you walk through the door. Great value for food as empty plates all round. Great food. Well done team Fromebridge for looking after us. #TopSundayroast

What fantastic place great atmosphere fantastic food and a warm welcome

Good experience, delicious food, very good staff, Sarah went out of her way to seat us in a very busy period and went above and beyond. Thank you Sarah .

Great pub with amazing carvery and a great walk around the canal

Carvery was delicious, but my beer shandy was cloudy. I should have taken it back.

2nd visit this week, had a sharing platter. Very tasty and a lovely carvery today. 💯 percent.

Had the steak sandwich which had potential to be delicious but it was tougher than leather and so chewy it went to the dog. Other than that the visit was OK.

Wow what a place . We stayed overnight in the motorhome. £10 donated to macmillon trust... no services amazing place

Second time going and second time disappointed with the food. Such a shame because it's such a beautiful location and place. Wetherspoon "quality" but without the deals/pricing.

Really enjoy eating at the Fromebridge. Sarah J always makes us feel very welcome and looks after us 😊

Marvin’s a legend his potato’s are banging. Gorgeous bitta beef too

Ive had a few very nice roast dinners but the last one was rubbish. Would have been a 5 star but the Turkey should have been renewed but instead I got given the scraps and dried out junk . Hopefully it will be better next time

Lovely Carvery served by Marvin. PS remember to push the button 😀

We have had the roast buffet before and were very pleased - but today it certainly was not good , as everything, including the meat , was clearly re-heated, which was particularly obvious in the dried out beef. Very disappointed. You have just lost 3 customers in one go. Barbara R.

Marvin was an absolute star, great food and also super friendly. Would 110% recommend.

Very quick and efficient. Great service my Marvin thanks

Food was lovely, great atmosphere, excellent service.

Marvin was the main man tonight ! We had an amazing carvery and he was so friendly and so helpful explaining about the food and how the meats were cooked etc...he made our dining experience exemplary...thank you so much 👌

Great meal today fabulous place See you soon

Quick stop off for a carvery. Roast beef was lovely: thanks Marvin for another tasty roast

Came down for the first time got recommended by a friend the carvery is amazing 👌

Beautiful area, with a wonderful little waterfall. Food was averagely priced but far less than average in taste. Pasta was old and not fresh. Beef burger was over cooked and the cokes were flat. Staff were very rude. Very unprofessional and unhelpful (at least the staff on the bar anyway). Shame really… Given the aesthetics of the area it feels a real shame that the food is poor and the staff are just rude. I wont be returning and I wouldn’t recommend.

Food lovely the chef marvin is a top bloke very friendly & helpful

Lovely roast. Amazing roast potatoes

Had a ceaser salad was very satisfied the chicken was cooked perfectly and very tender the lettuce was fresh and crispy and the dressing was beautiful

Nice location to sit outside for a drink. Our Food was ok but could have been better. Nice chicken ciabatta but steak with cheese melt ciabatta was not pink and not tender as described. Chewey!

Excellent carvery. Marvin exceptional service with a smile, always checking the veg to see if still fresh, making sure lids are on food when servery not being used. Well done good to see carvery back best in Gloucester

Great place for camping and food

Pop in for drinks lovely place , Sat out side by the water . Didn’t have food so can’t comment. Will return to try food at a later date .

Typical chain. Friendly informal staff real people. Toilet areas could be a lot better and the store behind the Bar was very mouldy “ Retired Dilapidation Surveyor “ if it was the kitchen would not have eaten, however we had a great breakfast dispute a long wait in the very nice dog area with view of old mill workings. Will return when passing.

100% the best carvery. Meat is so tender, toast potatoes crisp and as for cauliflower cheese so much sauce it’s delicious. Always guaranteed a big smile and great service from Marvin

Marvin is great, food amazing. Will definitely be back.

Thanks to Carvin Marvin. Great job, we'll be back.

Carbon Marvin, what a lovely chef, genuinely cares about the food he cooks and it’s all done with a smile on his face. The food was delicious, loved the mash, really tasty, would highly recommend visiting here. We had the carvery. Excellent x

We keep trying Fromebridge as it is somewhat local but unfortunately it's seriously gone down hill. The Carvery is terrible and that's even if they bother coming out from the kitchen to serve you! Beef is rarely nice and the Gammon is rarely there. If you order a Carvery it would be nice to be told oh we don't have this this or that is that ok? Because we wouldn't waste our money! Can't reccomend it at all.

The food, atmosphere and staff were all first rate, but the thing that we found shameful, was the fact that there were several motorcycles there, and while I don’t have a problem with motorcycles,I and no doubt others found it wrong for the management to allow them to fill up the disabled parking, and expect disabled people to struggle. No staff can say that they had not seen the bikes as they were on plain view from the restaurant. Plus my wife and others had mentioned this to the staff.

Taken by a friend on a visit to the area. Enjoyed the food. Would visit again.

Marvin has done an amazing job, the carvery was delicious, fresh and plenty to choose from

Met with a friend for evening meal, staff were over stretched, but food arrived in a reasonable time. Interesting building, large car park for our motorhome

Absolutely amazing historical pub with mill working & agrreculture objects on display Outstanding food, beers, Ales & ciders

Brilliant food, Marvin and staff are very polite

I came here for the cavery as we used to go to Rose tree farm and that had closed. It was way better, the food was tastier and better quality. Marvin had remembered us and was very friendly and made us feel welcome. Will definitely be coming again
