Mill in Eastbourne

This is our sixth visit over the last two months to find there wasn't any draught IPA again also no ice for drinks Tesco is just up the road to buy some also the food on this visit was very poor we did receive a courtesy check but everyone had finished There also seemed to be very few staff for a Sunday

Had a great Breakfast with mates. Ordered off the menu and was informed that it would be cheaper to an all you could eat. Staff nice and down to earth, made me feel very welcome.

An excellent Sunday roast lunch at the Mill with very fair pricing and helpful friendly service from all the staff. Thank you.

Another visit to this warm and friendly pub. As I stay at the premier inn opposite this is always very handy for me. A lovely welcome by the staff ordered a bar snack and a drink. Service was great food was very tasty. Thank you all I will return again next year

Out of the way pub over a mile from the town centre, but well worth the effort to visit here. Good atmosphere about the place and while i did not eat here his time they have a varied menu. Good friendly service and not too pushy, just what the casual visitor requires

My self and my wife were on a romantic night away and wanted something close to the hotel and the mill was right next door and we are so glad we ate there. We both had the mixed grill and it was perfect the service was fabulous the only slight negative was the restaurant was a bit chilly.

we came here on sunday, great price for the roast dinner and drink, pudding was scrumptious, had a lovely time, thank you

We ordered on the app and the drinks came within 2 minutes of ordering! The food arrived quickly and was piping hot and really tasty, the staff were helpful and the place was clean. We really like it here.

Always come here with my family and we are always happy with the service and food!

Excellent helpful service, dinner was great value

Fab staff ,service excellent, food good. Reasonably priced

Curtis looked after us as a large group. Food mostly was good. Dinner excellent. Breakfast ok, but they are small and we were a large group. Very accommodating, welcoming and all staff extremely friendly. Thanks

Curtis was great and really helpful. Dinner was amazing and really friendly staff.

1.Breakfast...unfortunately no cook in the house.... So only continental breakfast... Offer very manageable and not refilled...counter and dishes partly dirty...the waitress probably doesn't have time to take care of it...sitting in the corner with her cell phone...gross...leftover food from the night before on the windowsill... . I was here last time...

Had a nice dinner. Really big portions and great value for money.

All round great visit. Good value plenty of offers to choose from. Staff were friendly and helpful. Would recommend.

Had a nice dinner, food was surprisingly well cooked and delicious and the portion was so big I had no space for pudding unfortunately!

Brilliant stay for the week, we were here for most days because the value and staff.

The chefs know i like my meal a certain way they always oblige xx

Table 21 ...... 22/10/2024 12:30 (ish) ordered sizzling steak & full monty ... full monty steak was wrapped in something strands ( like the hairs pulled from a plug hole ) tangled ! I brought to the attention and showed a member of staff and was offered a silly pudding in return 😡. I have used this to eat many times in the past and never had a issue until today. Would I recommend to family & friends ?... not after todays find. It was utter disgusting to say the least !

Lovely welcoming staff, normal pub food though, but brilliant service from the front of house team. Food is valued for money.

my husband, my self and my 3 young children went for dinner on Sunday the 20th of October and I we had a fantastic experience, the food was great, I had the roast with 2 meats and my husband a spicy burger and the kids had wraps and pasta, the food came quickly and was super hot and tasty! you could tell nothing bad been sitting long at all! the kids wraps came with so many bits and we really big portions. well worth the money! we will definitely be going back!

Part of a party that came for a birthday, I'm so happy we did, the food fantastic, the staff even better along with the prices. A lovely lady brought us out meals and checked if we were all ok, and a nice young chap brought us out puds, Ethan and Shara , we asked the manager for their name as everyone went above and beyond to make this a good day.

Went for dinner ordered a rare steak sent it back twice as steak came out medium. The chef came out and told me he knew how to cook a steak been doing it for 30 years was very abusive. The manager came and spoke to me told me company policy not too cook rare steak. This was nowhere to be seen on menus. Was offered replacement item or refund by then I had lost my appetite.

Fantastic service from all the staff - all of them were welcoming and helped with anything you needed! Great atmosphere and food

Claire and her staff looked after all 16 of us perfectly each big handling our large order and awkward requests with his. Great staff with welcoming banter, excellently priced food and portions and be tasty! Thankyou! Jack

Nice Friday lunch with the family, the staff were polite, the man who served us was happy and polite and the young lady who checked on us was kind.

In the past I have give a good reviews but yesterday was more than bad.Two hour wait for our main course lots of unuesfull information.One person in the kitchen not the customers fault this is down to bad management.Not sure we will go there again although our grandchildren like it.

Not a very good experience. Standard of food was disappointing, tasteless, and gave me an evening in the toilet. I wouldn't recommend this place.

Went for my grand daughter's 7th birthday the staff and food was excellent.

Think it could do with updating, looks a bit tired .

We only popped in for a drink,busy at 2pm with people eating and nice buzzy atmosphere. Took a large table and my only criticism would be that food had not been cleaned from the floor after others had eaten there.

Perfect evening! And good prices!

I liked the way they answer the phone

Cannot fault food or staff, very friendly. The garden needs a big overhaul. All the wooden tables and benches were broken. Wood sticking out everywhere and sharp.

We come often . Food and staff and restaurant family friendly

We were staying in the Premier Inn next door for a few days, so booked in for evening meal and breakfast. We booked ahead knowing our first night was a Saturday, and glad we did. Table was all ready for us so we decided to order our food and drink on the Greene King app. This is a fantastic development, your menu is all ready to go telling you what is available and what isn't. Drinks and food ordered and within 5 minutes our drinks had arrived at our table and was soon followed by our mains ( highly recommend the Korean BBQ chicken burger!). There was a bit of a wait for dessert whilst the team were dealing with a disgruntled customer. We found the staff friendly and very helpful and a good ambience in the restaurant. Breakfast was the usual Premier Inn affair. Continental and cereals all set up, and cooked breakfast made to order so everything is fresh and hot. Only grumble would be the shortage of bread for toast. Overall we couldn't fault the service or the staff and wouldn't hesitate to come back again in the future. Great value for money!

Food was great but disorganised clearing tables

Food is average. Ok. Chips could be more crispy. Burgers are good value

Charlie was great. Very friendly and helpful. Always smiling and helpful. Unfortunately we didn't have a reservation on a Wednesday night and had 5 of us waiting for a meal. We were told a table should clear in about 30 mins. We waited over 3 hours for a table. Many tables were available but apparently 5 of us were too many for them to serve/seat due to "health and safety reasons". We eventually had to pull 2 tables at the bar in order to be able to be served. We had family over from South Africa and we wanted to show them a good night and Unfortunately the service from staff (besides Charlie) was very unwelcoming. Myself and the rest of our party feel this pub/restaurant would be better managed by Charlie as he bends over backwards for his customers, where as the rest of the staff couldn't give a damn about anything.

Table of 5 was to many. They refused to serve us.

The food was very good value for money. The staff excelled themselves and were so helpful even though at times they were extremely busy but always polite and smiling faces.

Staying at the hotel across the road for a few nights. The team have been ever so helpful and the food fantastic. The pub can go from one extreme to another but unfortunately this is not in the teams control but they handled everyday perfectly. Will be back for sure

Came here with my family during our weekend away. Got to say was a bit disappointed. We had booked and were given a table behind a group of very loud, drunk and swearing adults. The staff never asked them to quiet down at all even after a woman near us complained. A lot of the food wasn’t available. The service was ok. Tables very sticky and lots of empty glasses and plates around. All in all quite rough. Won’t be going back again

My daughter and new son in law held their wedding reception here, what an amazing place, all the staff were friendly and nothing was too much trouble. On the day the venue was set up perfectly the way we asked,the atmosphere was amazing on the night and everyone had a great time. The food was delicious and served quickly and to everyone's needs. Although the whole staff did an excellent job, a special thank you to Curtis, Rhys and Charlie. Will definitely be visiting again one day.

My wife and I had a reception here after our wedding. They went above and beyond, catering to our requests setting up the space, and even bringing out the food in an orderly and timely manner. I want to particularly thank Curtis, who helped to manage and ensure the space was ready and all our decorations were laid out and aesthetic, Rhys, for laying out the cakes perfectly and helping to cook our food to perfection, and Charlie for being so friendly and helpful throughout the entire evening. I would highly recommend this place for events as well as just general dining in. The staff are so friendly and welcoming, you cannot help but wish to go back.

Nice staff and good food at a reasonable price. Be careful if you have allergies as they did mess up my meal but they corrected it and gave me a refund with no hassle.

New waitress too.overpower, best waitress Lisa always pleasAnt and helpful,food today bit cold but usually very good,

Great food, reasonable prices and friendly staff. Brilliant thank you.

Grubby carpet, dirty radiators and sticky tables No tomato's available for breakfast on two consecutive days

Had a wake here the food supplied was excellent and hot, big portions too

Menu looked good! Rude staff and gross greasy food! Won’t be visiting again

This is one of our local restaurants to visit. It has improved since the last time we visited in the food and service. We were served by Ethan, and he was very helpful throughout our visit. I recommend that you check out the deals because it's worth the money. I had the big plate special chicken korma curry for £10 you get the curry and rice, with chips, naan bread, 3 onion bhajis, 2 poppadoms, mango chutney and mint dip! As well as a drink! Love a bargain!

Stop off on our way to Eastbourne. Saw sign at bar saying limited menu. Should have read no food. The guy seamed bemused that I wanted to order food.

Food and service.. no star Hotel custoner.. no booking table to eat... no space to eat.. I eat my diner next to bar on high table, disaine to drinking ... with was all dirty and sticky. .... needs negative star. Breakfast till 9am.. lunch??? Not wasting my time... dinner also till 9pm, finish work 9.30 and dance from bar ... back to town to eat But open to drinking...... sorry

Fantastic evening, the team were great from welcome to goodbye. Food was fast, tasty and great value, team handled an issue with a customer well.

The meal and service were great nice atmosphere. The adult meals great price

We have eaten here a few times and found that the meals are very appetising and also good value for money (Don't much care for the 'fake' onion rings tho'). The service is always friendly and efficient. Our waitress, Lil, is super professional and has attended to us very well. Thank you Mill for great times.

I have been to the Mill a lot over the last decade, I really enjoy the food and the staff are generally happy and helpful. The reason for the four stars is that my son and I enjoy a lovely pint of bitter but although there are numerous beer taps with loads of variety, there only ever seems to be one beer available at lunchtime. I'm sure there are logistical reasons for this but I would certainly buy more beer at lunchtime if more choice was available.

Had a breakfast for 4 this morning from the Premier Inn next door. Not much communication from the Premier Inn regards, staggering the bookings for Breakfast to The Mill to avoid long waits for cooked breakfast etc. The manager was very good and refunded our breakfast after a long wait, food was good and not really his fault due to staffing. Many thanks for your help!

1st time visiting here. Table service via the app is easy to use. Decent prices for drinks. Great deals on food (2 4 1 for Burgers on Friday's) & friendly staff.

Lovely staff, friendly atmosphere. The food was delivered quick but not the best I have had. Table was sticky, felt other tables and so were they

Four of us went here tonight for my mum's birthday dinner because we all like the food and the atmosphere here. Tonight we brought in some cupcakes and candles and the staff were kind enough to light the candles and bring out the cakes after our dinner despite being busy. The whole pub sang for my mum and it was a really lovely experience. My mum and I always choose the Mill because we've always enjoyed it here. The smothered steak sizzler is a really good choice. I've never had an issue with it, I really like it and I've had it multiple times. My mum loves it too and always gets it.

The chef is a microwave jockey at best..... it says SIZZLING PAL!!!! The only saving grace is the bar staff 😘

Great food & service. Lovely family meal & venue

Dirty glasses, dirty toilets, understaffed so the pub was full of unclean tables, food basic, staff friendly but clearly overworked, decor looked tired, poor choice of ales on pump. Nice little play area for kids!

The food was fantastic, the portions and value for money are 10/10. We did have to wait 30 minutes for our drinks to arrive with our food and the waitress was slightly off but apart from that I would recommend this place and will be returning.

Haven’t been here for a while but wanted to have a change so we visited the mill ; place was busy we had booked which is advisable; food came fairly quickly and was really nice ; manager Curtis very polite and worked really hard along with his team; may be at busy times have someone helping to serve at the bar to save people queuing; but was a really good visit ;

Marvellous Sunday lunch, large portion of roast beef, potatoes,veg, gravy, quick service, hot food, lovely staff, well done,very enjoyable,will come again,

Great place nice food good value lovely staff

Thanks for the great service Charlie

Fantastic affordable food and great prices. Staff lovely.

Didnt order food but looked good and worth the price ..drinks were good..staff were friendly

Great food but music was so loud by the bar when ordering that the server misheard my husband and my husband then misheard when he read the order back to him and ordered the wrong dish!

My wife and I love coming here. Staff are friendly, there’s a great variety of food, and tastes great. Went into today and had Cass bring over our orders and she went above and beyond.

First night staying at Premier Inn, went to the The Mill opposite for food and drinks. Great atmosphere, very attentive staff. Made me feel like a local even though it was my first time. Special mention to Cassie, who made sure we had plenty to drink, along with good conversation.

Treated my grandsons to lunch today , food was delicious, the service was quick and the staff very attentive , will definitely be back !

Nice Monday lunch after a long weekend. Restaurant very quiet but a really nice blonde girl saw the all the guests. A manager brought out our food quickly and it was the best we have had yet from here, he did mention the head chef cooked it, left happy and we will be

I orded a home run burger it was so tasty and I upgraded to the salt peppers fries they was really good drinks was great I will deffo visit again! Staff are also lovely Claire and Charlie served me at the bar lovely staff members 😊

Me and my partner came for dinner, it was so busy and we thought we wouldn’t get a seat but Charlie the waiter was very attentive, friendly and helpful.

Claire served me at bar lovely manager and the food was great espically my burger I would deffo recommend the home run burger thanks for a great visit 😊

Arrived for dinner after a long drive and was given a warm welcome by the staff, namely Charlie, chloe, curtis and millie Food was very good value for money Will definitely be returning

Always get a happy greeting when we go in the mill the landlord and staff are all very polite and never keep you waiting long the food is always hot and of good quality

Mothers day week end here was great, stayed at the hotel across from the pub visiting my mother nearby. Breakfast was nicely cooked fresh and the dinner was lovely. The roast my dad got was Huge and we only just about finished the burger with sweet chilli, we will pop in next time we are down this end of the country.

Ordered starters and sunday turkey roast dinner. Starter arrived and while we was eating that the main roast arrived. Felt very rushed and as we had a two person table waiter had trouble squeezing on our table. Terrible place to eat as the starter was warm food but the main roast was cold.

Really enjoyed our visit. Very friendly staff and delicious food.

We came here for mother's day lunch, booked in last minute as everywhere was busy but I can't say how great full we were. The staff were fantastic, greeted by a gentleman who showed us to our seat, nice booth tucked away. We had two lovey roast and two wooden board meals, size was perfect, couldn't fit pudding unfortunately but we were asked by both the gentleman and a brown haired lady if everything was ok. Busy but service of point, they both asked us to do a review and we great fully accepted. We will be back when we are in the area.

Came for some breakfast on mother's day, was welcomed at the entrance by lil . Lil seated us to our table and said to order at the bar when ready. Was served straight away at the bar. Only had short wait for our food. Lil brought food out and was very nice to my children. Had a check back. Food was very nice and hot. Lil was working and was busy but still made sure everyone was ok, even made time to say good bye and to enjoy the rest of our day. Thank you lil

The food was nice...but the service was better.the staff make you feel welcome and very polite.and the breakfast staff also.

Great service lil i guess she was the manager bent over backwards to make sure we had a great experience couldn’t fault her they could do with 5 more of her?? Brilliant

Very friendly and helpful staff. (Served by Charlie and Curtis) sorted out a mixup with professionalism and efficiency and made us all feel very welcome. Would definitely return and recommend

Stayed over for a work trip and ate at the Mill over a few evenings. Great food, great atmosphere, Donna made us feel very welcome as did the whole team. Thank you

Great variety of pub food at brilliant prices. TV's at some of the tables for kids entertainment! Only downside is it is quite small so pre-book your table

Another amazing family dinner at the mill. The menu has lots of choice and is cooked to perfection. The staff go out of their way to assist and are very attentive. Would highly recommend. TV booths and colouring for the kids so we could have an adult chat whilst the kids were happy. Looking forward to the summer when the garden and play equipment will be in full use, well. done team Mill!

We had booked breakfast whilst staying at the Premier Inn - we have enjoyed many breakfasts in varying Premier venues however this was disappointing. We recognised the female staff member was working very hard seemingly single handed and our cooked breakfast was hot and tasty. However the tables and chairs in the venue are tired shabby and past their best. We were disappointed there was not a coffee machine as in many Premier Inn restaurants instead there was an urn of water for instant coffee or a cold filter coffee jug that was empty. Added to which the restaurant had run out of milk and we had to use sachets - so cereal was not possible. Although we were more than happy with our hotel stay we would not choose to eat in The Mill restaurant again.

Came in for breakfast with my family, ordered at the bar with a lovely blonde lady who was very nice and friendly, who told us to help ourselves to tea and coffee at the breakfast bar. As we were doing so a very angry lady with dark hair told us off for doing this despite it being a miscommunication between staff. Made the atmosphere very awkward. Must be the same lady as these other bad reviews. Apart from that the food is fine.

Great atmosphere and amazing staff very accommodating. Large group and everyone's meal was fine and enjoyed . Extra people arrived then what we booked and staff were fantastic

I’m a regular at this pub/restaurant and I can’t recommend it enough, the portion sizes are amazing, the staff are super friendly and the service is super quick and efficient. They have some amazing offers all week long, I do have to say my favourite nights are Thursday and Friday, freebie Thursday and buy 1 get 1 free Friday (burgers) these are just 2 of the great offers they have that give you excellent value for your money. Cant recommend enough! 10/10!!!

Manager is fantastic.great people and great food .friendly polite staff .great clean pub would recommend to anyone ..
