Longbridge Mill in Basingstoke and Deane

Wonderful place with character. Enjoyed a lovely ribeye steak followed by the fruit crumble. Service by Cheryl was excellent will visit again

Food was lovely and Cheryl was very friendly and efficient in her service

Lovely location, friendly staff, very nice food. However was a little disappointing there was only one ale available and service was a little slow given that they were not particularly busy, this however did not affect us as a group as we did not have any time restrictions and gave us time to socialise. It would be an issue if we were a group with a need to fit into a time slot.

Food was great and service from Helen was fantastic.

Absolutely love coming here. The Sunday Roast was delicious and the service is always great. Helen was lovely and so accommodating.

Great food! As well as great service from Cheryl!

Very enjoyable meal with the family. Very good service from Chelsea. Lovely atmosphere. Would highly recommend.

Beef rib was absolutely fantastic! My partner had the Pork Belly and son had the new Charcuterie pizza with extra chillis! Sticky platter for starters and Cheesecake for pudding! Perfect Friday evening in a relaxed comfy pub by the fire!

Clio was an absolute pleasure and took great care of my party for my nans 80th birthday! We always look forward to lunch at longbridge!

Excellent service and delicious food. Staff are lovely and welcoming. Skewers were absolutely delicious. Steak cooked to perfection.

Lovely food. Great service and surroundings.

Couldn’t ask for a better experience. Chelsea was amazing - very attentive and couldn’t do enough for us. Food was perfect

Been to The Mill many times it just gets better and better Lesley and all her staff really do look after you. Each and everyone are so professional and look after you so well the food is amazing and we can’t fault this place alt all. Many thanks to all the staff and carry on the impressive hospitality and service you all are fantastic. Trevor and Kate Phillips

Cheryl was so helpful and looked after us so well. She made it a perfect lunch for us all.

delicious food and fab service from Cheryl - always love coming here

Service was excellent and the food was absolutely fabulous. I will come here again with my family for an evening meal.a personal thanyou to Cheryl for her excelent service

Exceptionally good service. Attentive friendly staff and delicious food. We will be back!

Booked in advance for table if 8- Table wasn’t ready when we arrived. Finally seated by very grumpy waitress, who gave menus. Didn’t see her again for another 40mins. When we ordered we were then told that they didn’t have half our choices. Had to wait an hour for food. Kids were starving by then. Roast came out and had to wait another 10mins before the veg came out with other dishes. Bad service, didn’t seem enough staff, even though it wasn’t that busy. People were just going to the bar to get own drinks but even then no one seemed to be there. Food portions varied even though the same dish was ordered. One looked reasonable, the other looked like a kids portion- but the actual kids portion we ordered was bigger! Didn’t wait around to order a pudding as we had already been in there for 3hours and only had one course! Seem really short staffed and the ones that served us lacked customer service or even a smile. Food average, not worth the price. Seems to have gone down hill, such a shame as it’s a lovely location.

Very good service and meals we great Cheryl was very helpful and knowledgeable

A beautiful property, cosy dining area on a chilly day, great meal and friendly, excellent service from a lovely lady called Cheryl. We'll be back! x

Great staff Ewen is a Great bar men but all staff are great

The food was great but the service was shocking. We had booked this dinner a couple of weeks in advance. It took about half an hour (and for us to chase them up) to receive our drinks. Was told there was an hour wait on food when we arrived, didn’t expect it for drinks. Asked multiple times for a jug of tap water. Was told about 5 different options were off the menu because they had ran out of food as they had been busy. Staff seemed stressed and likely weren’t trying to come across rude but were very abrupt and unapologetic.

Delicious Sunday roast, friendly welcome and a good kids menu. Cheryl our waitress was absolutely brilliant.

Good very good but small portion. Good choice of 🍻

Cheryl served us excellently today at Longbridge Mill. She is always helpful and nothing is too much trouble for her. Food was also very good.

Just had a lovely lunch here, we shared the baked Camembert and a portion of chips then had dessert. I love it when restaurants offer a mini dessert and coffee! The waiting staff couldn’t have been more helpful too; we had a table in a rather noisy location at first but it was no problem to be moved when we asked for a different table. Service was friendly and helpful and Cheryl was amazing, thank you for making our lunch experience so good!

The staff and manager were friendly. Food was good but a long wait after ordering. Manager said they hadn't expected to be so busy but previous reviewers seem to have had similar waits. Maybe the chef is slow or the kitchen understaffed?

Overpriced and bland. The stone baked bread with beetroot hummus was strange, there was no taste to the hummus at all. The bread okay, not warm enough though. the chicken bacon & avo salad was awful, the avocado was brown meaning it wasn't fresh, the extra grilled halloumi i had asked for was half burnt, the dressing tasted fishy and I was left so underwhelmed. the belgian fries were awful, the mayo or what ever it was on top was running clear like egg yolk and tasted so strange. The banoffee choux bun was not a choux bun, it was a flat pancake with banana filling. I don't get how the feedback from the reviews is not being taken into account and fed back to the head chef!

Food was enjoyable with a generous portion size. We did however wait 45 minutes for our food and parts of the food were not hot. Another 25 minutes of waiting for our table to be cleared I had to ask in the end. We did feel forgotten about and ignored. Puddings then took another 30 minutes to arrive. Staff were friendly but there was a lack of attentiveness.

Great service from all the staff especially from Clio as well as great food. Never disappoints. Update Back at the Longbridge again for lunch with family got amazing service again from Cleo and Yasmin. Food on point as always. I seriously do recommend if you in the area give it a try 😁

Fantastic place to eat , food 👌 lovely grounds , nothing to much for the staff ,

Great ambience, dogs welcome, good selection of drinks and food. Very helpful staff, nothing was too much trouble.

Very friendly staff and good food.

We a lovely Sunday lunch with friends and we were served by Sheryl. She was really friendly and attentive, no hurrying us along so we had it a really relaxed meal. We will definitely be back

Amazing Sunday roast here with good friends! Cheryl was fantastic...such friendly professional service

Food great.. Cheryl waitress efficient and friendly .. If in area woukd be happy to return 😊

I felt the food was overpriced for the quality. It was not bad enough to complain but my chicken was over done as was the burger bun. Was given chicken nuggets instead of Quorn which was only noted by parent despite a preorder wimhich was double checked on arrival. The waitress was very good, patient and attentive. It's not somewhere I'd avoid but I wouldn't be in a hurry to rush back simply due to the the price of food- for the same price there are other places to go with a menu and finish I'd prefer. The aesthetic was nice and there is a fire place which I imagine is lovely in autumn/winter. It is a dog friendly pub.

Cheryl was lovely. Superb lunch and super smiley service. Thank you all at Longbridge Mill.

Met here as a midway point with friends for an evening with some food, a few drinks, in a sunny pub garden. Cheryl looked after us and she was absolutely lovely. She never kept us waiting at the bar, nothing was too much trouble and she always had a smile on her face. Thanks Cheryl!

Jessica P was an awesome waitress. Top quality service

Having been here many times, we were extremely disappointed with their brunch offering. Food took ages to come (and the restaurant was quiet) and then most of it was cold. The Bacon was so over cooked it was rock hard. When we went to pay and mentioned it, the lady knocked off the cost of 1 drink as compensation. Needless to say we won't be going for brunch again.

Always amazing food. Helen is amazing waitress. Thank you

Great pub with good food and good service

We enjoyed a really great Sunday roast, we all had the trio of meats and added a couple of cauliflower cheeses. The food was hot and well presented and tasted delicious. The service was very good, with everyone being friendly and polite It's also good value for money and we will definitely make a return trip soon.

Sunday roast was delicious. Couldn’t eat it all!

5* service from Chelsea this evening

Amy was a lovely server, all our food was amazing and served hot. I would definitely recommend a visit and especially the mango & passion fruit pavlova.

Always a good experience. Come here often with family and friends

Great place for a meal with friends or a romantic meal for two. The food was great, and it was nice & hot when served.. The service was good and the waitresses were on the ball, there when we wanted and discreet when not. Will we be back? Most definitely.

Anna was a great host, lovely food and a good atmosphere

Served by Cheryl Amazing personal service really welcoming and accommodating for our baby making sure he was comfortable so we could enjoy our food We had the chicken skewers which were amazing quality will definitely be coming again soon

We always have a lovely meal. Staff are friendly and food is good.

Amy P was very friendly and attentive. Food was very nice but chips were slightly undercooked.

We had cheryl as our waiter and went above and beyond to service our meal making sure they served what we asked for and got the sauce too! Such a friendly lovely waiter the food was amazing the service was brilliant and the atmosphere was over all the best I’d definitely come back, thank you cheryl and longbridge staff ☺️

Fantastic Service from Clio. Prompt friendly and thorough. Had the trio roast was delicious and filling. Had myself a refreshing premium pint of lemonade. Left feeling stuffed and satisfied. Will be returning.

Absolutely fantastic. Had my Dads 70th birthday party over the August Bank holiday weekend. Cheryl was our host and couldn’t have done more for us. Thank you all very much.

We ordered and the food took a long time to come it was OK but wouldn't go back

We enjoyed a great meal with family here. Great meeting point for distant family. Service by Beth was fantastic, not rushed, but also not waiting to long either. Food was fantastic and good value for money. Even after the meal there was no rush to leave the table.I have paid a lot more for a lot less in other places. I would highly recommend

I had an unplanned visit yesterday evening for food, and I had an enjoyable dinner for one at the Longbridge Mill. I obviously hadn't booked but was seated quickly and without drama given they were quite busy when I arrived. The waitress who served me was the perfect level of being attentive without being over the top and was fast and efficient with offering a drink and returning with it, and she then took my food order. I had the filet steak, which was slightly overcooked for medium, which I adk for but wasn't worthy of being sent back. However, the sauce was at best lukewarm, and I complained, and a fresh serving was provided that was piping hot. It's not the cheapest but certainly worth paying that little extra for.

Definitely recommended. Both the food and the service was excellent, and Beth was friendly and smiling, but never overbearing.

Visited for lunch with my parents. Cheryl was very friendly and gave excellent service. She's a real credit to your team. Food was exceptional and the vegetarian options were really good. Looking forward to coming back.

First visit for lunch! It was a glorious day yesterday and lunched outside🌞😎. We had an extremely friendly, attentive and professional waitress called Cheryl who made our visit so welcoming. The menu choices were vast, something for everyone. Out lunch was delicious and ample too. The atmosphere was wonderful; clean, comfortable, lovely decor and steeped in history. Fabulous spot and most definitely worth the visit!!

Great food and awesome service from Cheryl!

Went this evening for a catch up with a friend, staff were attentive, also respected our space and didn’t over check in with us and the food was delicious!

The pub is beautiful, and the menu has lots of lovely options, however every time i visit it does seem like they are understaffed. Its a shame as its not nice to see staff so clearly stressed, running around and generally very hectic, as it slightly ruins the evening. We waited for an hour and 15 minutes for our food after ordering on the app, and as a result were absolutely starving when it arrived! I think that the service definitely needs to be improved, as it does let the kitchen side down, they are producing amazing food but the entire experience is marred by the service. I would come back, as i have been for several years, as the food and pub really are very good. I just hope that by writing a review, the management/owners will take this on board and appropriately staff up!

Really nice pub - we sat outside on a summers day and they have a really lovely outside space. Service was nice and friendly. Food was decent without being amazing. Had the sticky platter which was nice enough - and the brisket sandwich was tasty if not a bit fatty. Lovely afternoon - would return.

Excellent service and food was awesome and staff so polite helpfull thank you Cheryl

We enjoyed a Sunday Roast with all the trimmings, the new flavoured Sodas are nice addition to the soft drinks menu. Food and lovely service by James. Thank you

Ordered food for 4 of us @£92 which is fine however the pub was quiet. It took a very long time for food to arrive when it did it was just warm. And looked like it had sat on a hot plate for a while eg skin in the pot of sauce. The server put food on table dissapeared for a while then rest of order came. Food looked over cooked and again seemed cold. I had to then request cutlery and condiments again waited they did not arrive. My partner went I. To get them and the server had forgotten. He then proceeded to drop cutlery get annoyed and kick the cupboard where the cutlery was kept. We did eat the food as have spent an hour here already and have to drop people off after dinner but won’t be back and will follow up with email to the pub management as an expensive awful experience

Really lovely place to come, the food here is always really delicious! Also shout out to Clio, her service was fantastic, she was really polite and never kept us waiting

Amy was very good. We visited on an incredibly busy evening when it appeared the staff we up against it. Unfortunately we had to wait over an hour for our food to arrive. When it did one of the meals was burnt and inedible. When we mentioned it to Amy she immediately apologised and fetched a manager. The manager came over quickly and, again immediately apologised and advised the main meal would be taken off the bill and our dessert would be free. Amy couldn't have been more attentive and apologetic. Due to the staff we will return to give the venue another chance as hopefully it was just a bad evening.

Had a great time, good food, Cheryl is a great host!

Really good service we came as a family the second time, really enjoyed the stake. The people who are serving really nice, I highly recommend it if you are in Basingstoke.

Loveliest waitress Cheryl!!!! ❤️❤️❤️

I treated my friend for a birthday meal on July 24th and we were both very impressed with the quality of the food and friendly and welcoming staff. My friend enjoyed it so much she went back again with her husband the following week

Cheryl was attentive, charismatic and unbelievably helpful

Great evening celebrating friends birthdays! Cheryl was great at looking after us ☺️

Food was great, venue is amazing and very nice, Cheryl was an awesome host, will definitely return if she’s serving us!

Cheryl was an absolute star, great energy and showed real care for us and our experience!

Really good service we came as a family the second time, really enjoyed the stake. The people who are serving really nice, I highly recommend it if you are in Basingstoke.

We were dealt with straight away when we arrived and shown to our table by Cheryl. Cheryl was absolutely brilliant, very friendly and made us feel welcome, chatted and always had a smile

Visited with friends. Lovely atmosphere. The food was delicious and a generous portion. Waitress Cheryl was a joy to be served by and very obviously loves her job. There were a couple of things not available on the menu, but they were more than willing to swap items. Looking forward to going back again.

Five of us had an excellent experience at Longbridge Mill this evening. Drinks, starters, and mains were served promptly, and excellent quality. We've not been for a while, but expect we'll be back soon. All good, thank you :)

Nice pub restaurant in good location. The visitor centre mill is generally open Saturdays. The restaurant is spacious and lots of indoor seating, theirs also plenty of seating outside. The food is hearty and quite good value. Though it's by the river you can't actually really see the river itself. Theirs a footpath over the busy road bridge that takes you to a spot with fantastic views of the mill and weir.

Had a great meal out with friends. Very good service and staff were very helpful, and food was very nice and quick to arrive .

I love coming down to this pub the service is great and all the staff members are lovely and always have a good attitude. The food is incredible I recommend the mini chorizo sausages and the signature burger both are incredible dishes.

Had a meal here recently. Fantastic food, such a beautiful location with a professional and enthusiastic team. Truly a delight.

Very friendly, good food, excellent service, will be back .

Great food, drink and staff, cannot fault them. Thank you to all staff for making our visit so enjoyable. We will be back soon

Great food and atmosphere but the absolute amazing service pushed it up to 5 stars, by are enthusiastic waitress, Cheryl.

Came here for dinner, service from Helen was quick, friendly and she was so so lovely, food was incredible will definitely be back :)

Fantastic location and loved the chicken burger. Super polite staff with one exception. Lovely place to return again and again.

Been here several times now, it’s very quiet even on weekends and evenings. Had one bad experience where there was a party of some kind and they where tucked out of the way in the corner but they where getting well out of hand as more and more drinks came and got louder and louder, no staff members asked them to settle just a little. Food is ok 3 1/2 (Basing on my average visits). I think the food could be amazing if a little more care went into it and maybe changed up a few items, I also think this would make it a lot busier. Some parts of the building are damaged or falling apart, this is a real shame because otherwise it would look even more beautiful. Mainly come here to meet friends for a catch up and chill outside in the sun and the atmosphere is great. Hope this helps

we had a lovely visit and our waitress Beth was so attentive and sweet! Will be returning! Food was also 10/10

Good food, good service and lovely venue

they took so long to serve us, was swearing around customers and the food was over cooked and burnt

Yaz and her team were absolutely amazing. Nothing was too much trouble. A beautiful pub, friendly, welcoming staff serving wonderful food.

Great beers and good location 👍 Didn't have food this time but looked good.

Good food and great service by James.

Lovely place. Amazing customer service from Scott. Will definitely go back many times.
