Mill at Upton in Cheshire West and Chester

Cannot fault the place, food was delicious, staff was attentive & price was reasonable, have been twice now & happy to recommend anyone who hasn’t been

Have spent many hours here with my family and enjoyed meals every time.. service was excellent.. and always look forward to visiting

Absolutely loved this place. Food was lovely couldn't fault it. Lovely warm pub after being in the rain all day. Staff were polite and friendly. Would definitely recommend it and we will be back.

Great food, good service in a large friendly pub

Always go there when we stay at the premier inn North next door. Convenient.lovely food piping hot had the steak and ale pie was delicious but very filling.

Just had a really good roast dinner here, £13.95, great quality, good portion size and very friendly staff. The only negative I have is the wine glasses need polishing, there was a few stains on them.

Good grub, well presented, music a bit loud when it's quiet, certain drinks over priced.....don't forget to enter car registration on tablet or you'll get caught out with a parking fine when visiting or staying

Great food, interesting menu. Quick service from nice team at the Mill. Would Def use again

Food and service both excellent. friendly staff, clean facilities too, We had beef dinners and they were so nice, fresh veg and the roast potatoes were the best.

The Mill at Upton is outstanding. Amazing location, venue is excellent and well purposed. Large selection of drinks and food items are reasonably priced. Service is exceptional.

The Wexford chicken is divine. Love coming here to treat my mum. (Well, she treats me). Lovely bunch of staff and very chill but could do with better dessert options, however the lemon, white chocolate and blueberry cheesecake is top. My mum loves the wrap.

Quite possibly the best pub food I’ve had in 30 years, if you ignore the fact you don’t know the beers, they’re very good too.

We absolutely love the mill ,staff are amazing like friends to us love Amy and George love all the guys and what the mill does for charity is amazing so lovely and chilled there the best 💓

The food was very good for the price, I had a chicken salad, and it had plenty of chicken. The staff were nice but it was a bit slow. So ok, if you're not in a rush. Not a great deal of atmosphere, but it was lunchtime.

Fantastic service and food for 3 days by Meg, George, James and the team. Amazing with the kids, food was exemplary and redefines the name pub grub. Service was always with a smile and nothing was too much trouble. If ever back up this way, will definitely be paying a visit again. Keep up the good work guys, you are setting the standard for how things should be done!

Went here today for sunday dinner, asked the barman about gluten free options. I have to say he was so very helpful he listened to our needs. He was very busy as it was only him on the bar and serving the food. What a credit to your pub , Thank you .

A wonderful place for lunch with lovely staff

Table was dirty on entry and nobody came to wipe it down, had to use antiseptic wipes myself. The guy wiping down other tables (later) was not wiping them down correctly ( half hearted attempt. Food was delicious and hot, I had fish and chips and my partner had vegan chicken wrap but on ordering was not asked if she wanted a wrap or Flatbread as advertised and it came as a wrap. The most off-putting thing was the music that was being played, very offensive especially if children were present, it was hip hop with foul swearing in it! Not suitable at all.

This is a great local pub on the outskirts of Chester, the staff are all friendly and attentive. This is down to their management Mickie and Olivia, who set an example of high standards, particularly for their food and drink. The pub also has an outdoor area, which is perfect on those summer evenings when they arrive. Furthermore, the pub has a large car park and wheelchair access. Overall, I would say that this pub is definitely worth a visit.

Whenever I write a review it's always an honest and truthful one. At the mill I have had probably one of the best services I have had from a pub/inn for a very long time. The staff are lovely and were always making sure that I was getting the best service. They are very polite, chatty and just overall very welcoming. I'm staying next door in the premier inn and we had dinner with you this evening. I had your steak and ale pie which is one of personal favorites when eating in a pub setting. It was piping hot, intense with flavor and presentation was lovely. I really can't fault it. It's a shame I'm only here for a few days because I would quite happily make it my local pub. Thank you to all the staff, because you guys know how to make a customer happy! I also need to find trailblazer back home because it has to be one of the nicest stouts I've ever had the pleasure of tasting. Whenever I'm up Chester again I will be sure to be visiting!

Food was fantastic the home made pie Was unbeavible 10 stars

Great food and drinks, lovely friendly service by Mikey and his team that goes above and beyond.

Will never eat or recommend this place after being charged £100 parking fine while waiting 20 minutes to pick up friends who were delayed. Scam parking set up.

Always a very warm welcome. Young staff who are always very helpful. Food and service great

Clean and tidy but dinner not value for cost

Went here for my nans 80th birthday it was absolutely fabulous , food was delicious there was 32 people all our party got to eat at the same time and all the food was hot. Could not fault the staff or the food, we will be back again thank you ever so much for such a great time.

We came to celebrate my friends 80th birthday, there were 30 of us, how the staff did it was amazing, good came out quickly, was wonderful food, the staff were amazing,big thankyou to mickey, Amy and Olivia well done, every pub needs a mickey, Amy and Olivia x😊

We went for a meal after work for a friend's birthday, I'd called in the morning to see if they'd be able to do a candle in her pudding at the end of the meal. They didn't have any in the kitchen so a member of staff ran across to the shop to buy some. A small thing that meant a lot for the birthday girl. Always good food and friendly staff.

Nice meal of braised steak, mash and green beans. The IPA was lovely

We absolutely love this pub! The meals have never disappointed. Very tasty. Lovely variety. Beautifully cooked. The staff are so helpful and friendly. We will continue to go back.

Myself and my colleague came here for food for the first time, as we are stopping in the Premier Inn next door. great service and great food. I wood definitely recommend your pub to anyone.

This was very convenient on a very rainy day/evening as right next door to the premier inn. We were eating later in the evening so just had a late lunch

Attended at funeral there today. There was one barman on. He served the food plus served the drinks all on his own.He was fantastic can't recommend the food highly enough. Thank you so much 👍

Marvellous restaurant, friendly staff and great food. The whole party enjoyed their meal and I had the Small Plates selection: Lamb Koftas, Black Pudding Bon Bons & Cheddar Garlic Baguettes which were delicious! Highly recommended!

Definitely one for the sports enthusiast. Everywhere in the restaurant is covered by TVs showing various matches, bouts etc. Food took over an hour to arrive, but was delicious and well priced.

Just had a fabulous meal at The Mill. Such excellent value too for the good we had. Obviously cooked by a chef who cares! Fresh ingredients too and very reasonable prices. Definitely best food around. Will return! X

Had high hopes after reading reviews but was very disappointed. Visited recently while staying at the premier inn next door. As it was ‘curry night’ decided on the beef madras. However, it contained 4 small pieces of meat, the rest was sauce. Rice was dry, poppadoms burnt and the mango chutney absolutely vile. The naan was lovely though! I complained to the female waitress as couldn’t eat it but no refund or discount offered. (Pay on ordering) Will not go again and recommend others do not either.

Very slow service. Waited nearly 10mins to get a drink. You need more than 1 staff at the bar. But the bitter was excellent when it finally came.

Very good food friendly staff. Bad bot for me the beer is mediocre to say least

Handy if you are visiting the hospital across the road.

I had the mushrooms in garlic and Stilton sauce and they were amazing. My wife had the Lamb Koftas and thoroughly enjoyed them. We both had the Trailblazer Steak and my wife said it was the best meal she had had in a long time. It was a lovely way to present a steak in a nice rich gravy. I would highly recommend this place.

Just visited here as two families with young children. Cannot recommend highly enough. Lovely staff, excellent food and so kind to the kids even giving us takeaway trays for our ice-cream as we had to leave. Will be coming back soon! Thanks to everyone.

We went on a quiet lunchtime for a family meal. We received a friendly welcome upon our arrival and were seated quickly. We have people in our party with sensory issues, so we asked if it was possible to have the speakers turned down in our section and the manager sorted it immediately. The food arrived quickly, it was well presented and piping hot. Our favourite starter was the hot honey chicken - you get five big chunks each, which was a good size for a starter. The mains were all similarly excellent quality, the gammon and pineapple was perfectly done and delicious. For pudding, we had the Malteser and salted caramel sundae. It came served in a mason jar, full to the brim with ice cream, cream, sauce and crushed maltesers. And a flake! We had a lovely meal and will definitely visit again. Thanks to all at the Mill@upton!

wonderful service and delicious food! also the decor and paintings are cool <3

The staff were wonderful. The food was plentiful and well presented. Only had a coffee so can't comment on the beers... Remember to validate your parking 😁

I work for a 4 star hotel. And have the pleasure of thier meals. But the Sunday lunch we had at the mill was outstanding. Well done Luke and the rest of the team. As always fantastic service from Amy James and George. And not forgetting new comer Megan. All are a triumph members of Mickey and Olivia team. One of best places to eat in Chester.

Visited with family for Sunday Roast. Excellent service but a little disappointed with the meal which was warm rather than hot. Other than that everything was fine. Good selection of veg.

The worst Christmas dinner ever in life. I have come home starving. First course terrine was so solid felt and tasted still frozen. Sirloin beef main course was supermarket sliced beef that was more fat than meat. Roasties so solid the knife had problems getting though them and the red wine and thyme gravy looked and tasted identical to the turkey gravy. £65 per head never again. Shocking food considering price. 😞

THE 3 COURSE CHRISTMAS dinner today a little disappointed. First I asked if there was beef I was informed no only turkey on the. C/D menu !. I was told by another customer he had had beef he said there was a variety of choice which I did not get offered when I booked a few weeks ago?? I 5hought strange but ok !! The roast potatoes where overdone so to hard & crisp couldn't chew same with the stuffing had to leave all of that which spoilt the dinner straight away, disappointed the sprouts were frozen not fresh . It made me wonder for the money it cost how much of it was fresh. Only had a slice of turkey on my plate, & it had alot of fat on it ?? cabbage was lovely, left the Yorkshire pudding. Starters where okay pudding was delicious. Staff where lovely welcoming & helpful . Just a pity the hiccup of the over cooked rock roasters & stuffing same, 2 main parts of the Christmas lunch..Did ruin the dinner today Atmosphere was relaxing. I'm not sure I can big up Christmas lunch there today sorry . A quite alot of customers said same about over cooked food spoilt it .. Many thanks though AW Also lady below is very right for the price it was shocking . My son is a very good eater & left nearly all his meal ??

Booked last minute, great service and food was delicious, freshly prepared and piping hot. Highly recommended pub grub

Faulty towers dinning experience, fantastic! Dinner and entertainment

Food's good providing you have endless patience

Wonderful venue. The staff are so welcoming. Great food and brilliant value for money. They have been super accommodating of our regular art group too. Couldn’t recommend enough!

Very conveniently located few strides from the Premier Inn. Warm and welcoming and the staff were great. The food was delicious.

Food is amazing Service is amazing Staff are welcoming and attentive We’ve been twice in the last two months so a work meal and both times we have all been 100% impressed. Toilets are super clean too. Would 100% recommend!

Lovely decor great service from staff.Food was sooo nice belly pork melt in the mouth, I had braised steak and onion with mash and green beans which I don't normally eat but I ate every one.The hubby had black pudding apple bon bons with a bacon cream sauce as a starter then fish chips garden peas bonus was battered salt and vinegar scraps.Cherry bake and ice cream perfect dessert to end the meal off. 10 out of 10..

We were on an overnight stay for Chester Christmas Market (4 adults) We chose to dine at the Mill and was extremely disappointed when we received our food The Sunday lunch was cold meat was very stringy unbeatable the veg was like rubber. The only decent meal out of the 4 meals we ordered was the curry. We left all the food we ordered apart from the curry. The assistant who took out full plates asked if everything was OK with the food and when we said no it was cold and uneatable she said its probably because it is getting towards the end of the evening ( total excuse).

We try to visit The Mill at least every six weeks, our best pub/restaurant. They have recently had a new menu which is truly amazing. I had the best fish and chips ever. Real fresh fish, crunchy thin batter and delicious scraps and my hubby enjoys the steak and ale pie, his favourite and always choses this when we visit. Don't miss out, visit next time you're on the way to Chester, its a must.

If you are very very patient then come here by all means. We have had to wait 45 minutes between main and desert. Food OK but the two staff are young girls and could not give a toss! Service is appalling, more interested in changing tv channels than seeing to customers. I

Excellent food snd great beer. Wonderfully friendly and helpful staff. Would recommend to everyone.

Lovely staff, good choice of food and very reasonable prices. Large screen tvs all over the pub which were a distraction and weren't necessary.

It's OK to b honest a bit expensive bit posh

The atmosphere, food taste, service and welcome were excellent.

I was taken here for a meal by friends who have recently moved into the area. The service was great and the food was delicious. Will definitely be back

Called in after visit to Countess of Chester Hospital. "Fish and chips Friday" is excellent value - large fish in tasty batter, plenty of chips, tartar sauce and mushy peas. Highly recommended. Extensive menu and range of drinks.

Lovely meal x will return when next in Chester.

I stayed in Premier Inn next door, so had evening meal here. Very nice helpful staff, only small down side; if your on your own its bar service giving table number, so you could lose your table if busy if no coat or item to show table taken. Nice menu, little limited for veggies, however I had a very nice cheese pie with mash and peas, which I very much enjoyed. Reasonable pricing for food and drinks, they also run promotational nights, ie..Currey night including a drink etc. I would recommend you give this place a go, if you havent been before. I personall would be back next time in Chester.

Had a three course meal with my husband this evening, the pub is a lovely vibrant pub, very clean, inviting and a good atmosphere. Staff are very happy smiley and very polite. Compliments to the chef though the food was very very good! Plentiful portions too we were stuffed! I wouldn’t hesitate coming back here in the future! This pub is a credit to the Joseph Holt Chain! Highly recommended.

Great night out with the family

Stayed at the Premier Inn next door and had our evening meal at the pub. Staff very friendly, service and food couldn't fault. Would definitely go back there, if we lived closer. Comfortable atmosphere

We had our Daughters Christening party here, what an amazing pub! The staff are very helpful and friendly, they go above and beyond for the customers! The buffet was amazing, all the food was perfect, even the food that had to be catered for allergies was 5*. Thank you so much for making our daughters day so special and for all your help! Will definitely be back for future functions!

The food is amazing, need to take the chef home, great Value for money, the front of house staff are just as good

Coming here for dinner after setting in to my new accomodation for university. The food is delicious. The staff are so lovely. I had the slow cooked veef brisket flat bread

We stay next door in the Premier Inn for two night and eat her both as it was so welcoming. The staff were outstanding both nights (different staff) food was lovely would definitely recommend.

We had a celebration for a 90th birthday at The Mill, last night. Amy and the Team went out of their way to deliver an excellent experience - so grateful to them for all that they did for us, including decorating the table with balloons etc, before we got there. A real credit to the pub!

Food tepid at best. Ordered white toast but was given warm brown bread, not toasted, then was made to feel that was my fault! I think my eggs were Japanese throwing eggs, they were so overdone. Our table was circled constantly by flies. I wonder...

Excellent pub for an evening meal, very handy for all local shops and hotel.

Came for a roast dinner was amazing! Alice our waitress was fab really friendly and quick service.

Just dropped in for a couple of drinks and a meal, staying next door at PI. Excellent service by staff, food was really good. Good value too. Hanging kebab is class.

Great pub grub, I had the fish chips and mushy peas and it was delicious worth all the money! It came out hot which was a plus for me. The waitress was lovely, very pleasant. My friend had cheese n onion pie and she said it was delicious. Lots of parking,need to put your registration number number on a screen you first come in,for free parking. It was a clean tidy and well maintained pub. Had a great time in here will definitely be returning!

Great food, friendly staff and good atmosphere/ surroundings. We stayed at the Premier Inn next door ( Chester North) and used the Mill with family for evening meal both nights...really enjoyed it...thankyou to staff for making us feel welcome...great job 😀
