Miller and Carter Steakhouse in Milton Keynes

We go annually and for the last two years we have been served by Dave. We ended up at the same table, with the same seats and always order the same food. The service has always been exceptional and steaks have always been cooked excatly how we like them. Thank you Dave for always making a special birthday treat for my daughter, that little extra.

We were a little worried about using this restaurant having had such a poor experience in Bedford. We had been given a gift voucher as a Christmas present so didn’t want to waste it, so off we went. Needn’t have worried, it was a good meal, well cooked and presented, very tasty and lots of it! Tracey was our server and she was very bright and bubbly. This branch has restored our faith in M&C and we will be returning.

Food was very tasty, steak cooked well and plenty of sides and garnish. The shareable cookie covered in ice cream and marshmallow was very indulgent. Sadly service was lacking, long delay between starter and main, salad arrived ten mins before main. No one checked how the food was and ordered drinks that never arrived.

Accommodated a table of 8 of us comfortably, food was absolutely spot on, great service regularly checking if we needed drinks and timings were perfect. Highly recommended.

Wow!! Iv been wanting to go to Miller and Carter for some time now and I was not disappointed one bit the food, drinks and atmosphere was perfect and I will definitely go back. I had the sourdough and butter to start with, followed by the 50 day aged 10oz black angus filet mignon with beef dripping sauce, chunky chips and lobster tail and the garlic mayo & grana padano wedge dressing it was just absolutely delicious.

Food was great and our server Dave was really friendly, chatty and made us all really welcome. Fab experience.

The Customer service was on point. The food was really delicious as well. One of the most consistent branch.

We love Kyle ! Thank you so much Kyle for always making our experience so amazing! Great food and great service.

Jourdian’s service was top!! Miller & Carter is always the place that we can’t complain about whatever the occasion is. Great food, great service, great atmosphere, we will keep coming as long as we live.

Thanks so much Jourdan . His attention was very good. and the food, drinks and dessert were perfect. very good output. Just thanks

Food and service is always good in Miller & Carter Milyon Keynes. Had the Sunday sharing board today which was well worth it.

Service from Dave was excellent

Food was great &service was some of the best I’ve ever had (thank you Lucy!). Was a bit confused about the random addition of pop/dance music and dim lighting at 10 to 6, but otherwise a lovely evening!

Dave was remarkable! Couldn't be more attentive if he tired. A every nice evening had by me and my partner. X

Richard’s was outstanding. Nothing too much trouble. Food wasn’t good, but the last 99 visits were outstanding so just a one off. Will still return.

Fantastic meal for 25 of us, Tracey did a great job looking after us as we're all the other staff, thanks for a great night Recommend prawn cocktail, rump steak cooked to perfection, banofee pie to finish 😋

Perfect meal, the server we had was Kyle and he was lovely, so helpful and kind. I hope all my servers are like him in the future 😁

We reserved a table and still had to wait 30 minutes just to be seated. Then, we waited another 45 minutes with no waiter in sight. We ended up having to flag down another waiter just to be told to wait because our waiter was busy. We have gone to your other restaurants a lot, and we take our International guests there all the time, so it was utterly embarrassing to have guests there and be treated worse than McDonald's does with take-out. We are both from the entertainment—leisure business world, and I can honestly tell you this is not how you run a business. The staff all need some proper training on handling guests. You should always remember that we are guests in your restaurant. So, the staff should not make us feel like they are doing us a favour by serving us.

Last minute decision to eat out, warm welcome by Dave, felt very looked after. Food hot and tasty, nicely cooked and presented. Had the Valentines week special, good value for money.

A work colleague recommended we ate here when I explained I was looking to eat a steak dinner for my birthday. It was a good recommendation. The food was great as was the service. I only mentioned in passing it was my birthday when asked by our waitress what we had planned next. So it was a nice touch and surprise to receive the birthday plate. The only negative was that having never eaten here before we visited the website for the dress code. My wife felt uncomfortable having applied what was stated only to discover several patrons wearing shorts and flip flops or tracky bottoms.

Dave was really attentive and a really great asset to your team. Food was wonderful but the experience was all down to Dave’s amazing service. Thank you so much.

We were looked after by Dave. He was incredibly kind and personable. Super attentive and always made sure we were happy with the food and service. Give him a raise!!!!!! Hoppitus hippity

Had a lovely meal here, the food was great, and brilliant service by Kyle! We would come back!

I really like this restaurant. The staff are always very friendly and the service is good. The food is always cooked to my liking and it tastes great.

Came in today for a birthday meal was absolutely amazing, Aaron was our server, was very attentive, really lovely man made our experience so much better thank you for an amazing night ❤️

Myself and my wife dined at the restaurant on 17/01/2025 as part of her belated birthday weekend celebrations - We love coming here and have been to this one many times before Yet again we were not disappointed The food was all delicious and served piping hot We were served by our excellent waiter Abhi who was so pleasant and helpful and was very attentive to our needs and helped make our visit feel special, he is a credit to your company Thank you once again for helping to make our weekend so special We look forward to coming back again soon

Lovely been before but not mk lovely steak 🥩 thanks 5*****

We had a lovely meal and Richard was great.

Had a very nice meal, Dave was our server and he was very attentive. Highly recommend Miller and Carter in the Xscape.

The whole experience was a mixed, we went there for the rare treat menu which was advertised to be extended to Feb7, we arrived and sat and waited for at least 15-20mins until someone came to take our order, and we only found out there was no set menu when we are ordering, we have got no choice but to choose something else from the a la carte menu, and we wanted to get one of the steak sharing plate, half way through I was confirming my order, I was again told the one that we are ordering is not available. It was quite disappointing already at that point, and they seems to be understaffed and the lady who took our order seems a bit annoyed and impatient. We then have to ordered the most expensive sharing plate from the menu. After ordering, we waited for another 28 mins for our food to finally arrive, it was just about us deciding to cancel the order to go somewhere else as we were hungry and disappointed about not having what we came for available. The food was fine, but nothing wow, and to be honest it doesn’t worth the amount of money it costed us, steak a bit overcooked but still taste alright, we didn’t want to bring it up because we were so hungry we just want something to eat. Overall it wasn’t a very good experience compared to what I’ve been told from a lot of my friends that Miller & Carter has very high standard of services and good food. Don’t think I will be coming back anytime soon but I might still give this restaurant chain (at least other branches) another opportunity in the future.

Such a lovely restaurant to come to, we used to go to the other branch in Milton Keynes but now only come here. Staff are lovely, restaurant clean and warm and inviting. Food always lovely and being able to see into part of the kitchen is a bonus

Been to Miller and carter many times and had great meals and experience. This branch is not up to standards. Entered restaurant and 2 staff members had an argument in front of us. Waitress rude and slow and didn't care if we enjoyed it. 2 couples either side of us had problems. Onion loaf not cooked Took ages to get the bill and pay

Tracey was amazing and the food was delicious

Came in for a birthday meal and everything was perfect. The camembert was wonderfully gooey, steak was beautifully rare and tender, and cheesecake was delicious. Dave was a brilliant server and the birthday plate was a lovely touch! Thank you 😃

Food was spot on much better then the escape branch, service was great, quick efficient and bubbly server.

We came here to use some vouchers we got for Christmas. The food was spot on and Matteo our server, was friendly and ensured we had everything we needed. Thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience! Will be returning.

Richard was very nice and helpful, left a 10% tip as well for him

Unfortunately, my experience was quite disappointing. The restaurant was noticeably understaffed, which significantly impacted service quality. Food service was painfully slow, with long waits that tested our patience. Drinks were left sitting on the bar for at least 10 minutes before being brought to the table, which is far from ideal. To top it off, the steak quality was underwhelming and did not justify the high price tag. I expected much better for the cost. Overall, it felt like the establishment was struggling to deliver on basic expectations.

I had an inconvenience with my original booking for a birthday date so I quickly rang them and they were able to set up something for me . They really came to my aid and saved the day . I would rate the mocktail a 10/10 and so are the starters . The steak would be a 7/10 as I was really looking forward to it and didn’t meet my expectations as others described but that might have to do with the time as I was one of the last customers to leave before they closed. Genuinely it was still a 10/10 experience .

Tracey has done a fantastic job, professional, very pleasant and polite. The food was amazing as always. Well done 👌

We had a lunch reservation on a Sunday and, unfortunately, it was a very disappointing experience. The service was slow and not particularly friendly, which set the tone for the meal. Several items from the starter menu were unavailable, and the same applied to a number of desserts, which was frustrating. While the steak was excellent, the overall presentation of the food was quite average. We’ve visited M&C several times before, but each experience seems more underwhelming than the last. The quality and experience feel hit-and-miss with no consistency, which is quite disappointing for a restaurant of this caliber. We’re not sure if we’ll be returning anytime soon.

I recently visited Miller & Carter on Sunday, 12th January, around 12:30, and left feeling very disappointed. I arrived with a sleeping baby and requested to be seated in a quiet corner to avoid waking them, but was told the section was closed because only two staff members were working. Despite explaining that I knew exactly what I wanted to order and would place it immediately to minimise any inconvenience, they refused to accommodate my simple request. This lack of flexibility and consideration was incredibly frustrating. Disheartened, I walked around the corner to Kobe Steakhouse and had an exceptional meal with outstanding service. It’s clear they value their customers, which unfortunately I cannot say about my experience at Miller & Carter. I won’t be returning.

We had pre-booked a table for 2 for 16:30 on a Saturday. It was less than half full at the time, but it still took about an hour for us to receive our meals. The drinks we ordered from the menu were also out of stock. It was evident that they were very short staffed and struggling. They did the best they could under the circumstances, but unfortunately, this fell short of a typical Miller and Carter visit, and therefore our expectations.

Always love the food here. Our server Kyle was a great, very attentive and efficient.

We had a work party here last night at one of your brunches in MK. Everything was exceptionally great. Great atmosphere. The food was delicious and it came out very quickly, despite there being over 20 people, and the service was amazing from Andrea and the team. I highly recommend this place. Great job guys, thank you. We will definitely be back.

tracey was amazing for our staff party

Great service, great food, recommend

As always amazing service backed with tasty and filling food. Great atmosphere and Dave was more than helpful today. Fully recommend for anyone who enjoys a quality steak!

The best place for steak , always have a great meal here. Kyle was our server and he was great , very friendly.

Great food, very polite service. Get served by Kyle who was indeed very hospitable.

Great meal, Richard and the team looked after us so well. Thank you so much.

Lovely Christmas day dinner at the Xscape restaurant. Service was excellent by Abhi. Nothing was too much trouble and he was very polite and professional throughout. Christmas dinner was really good and plenty of it, cauliflower cheese was amazing. Souffle was good and the Christmas pudding was very good. Only slight let down was my partner had the surf an turf. The scallop was very over cooked and rubbery. Last year we went to the Shenley Branch and the meal really wasn't very good. This year it's was amazing at the Xscape.

Visited Miller and Carter on Christmas Day (which was also my birthday). Had an amazing experience of fabulous food, great customer service, relaxing setting and great atmosphere. Would definitely recommend! Danielle and the food runners made us feel very welcome and ensured we were happy during our visit :)

I've been to this Miller & Carter a couple of times now- once for a 30th birthday dinner, and then again last week for a girly Christmas dinner. On both occasions, we have experienced great food, a lovely atmosphere and the service has been fantastic! The food is hearty and indulgent, especially around Christmas time- the festive menu has loads to offer and lots of delicious choices. I love their Black Angus Sirloin! It's a shame I can't remember the name of the gentleman who tended to my table on both of my visits- he is chatty, friendly, personable and makes sure you are looked after. He's also great at upselling and recommending menu items. My friends and I are planning on coming back next Christmas for another dinner- we all agreed that our most recent experience was excellent! I think this is also an excellent location- MK Xscape already has loads to do, but this is a great option if you are looking at doing a really action-packed day with a nice meal at the end!

Lucy was super lovely and attentive, food was perfect as always. The only thing was the drinks wait but we ordered cocktails so semi-expected.

Kyle looked after us as usual! Always great food and service 🎅

Double rump fillet not a Chateaubriand

This was my second time visiting a Miller and Carter. Loved the 50 aged steak. Everything cooked to perfection. Thank you all.

Absolutely terrible, service was shocking food was dry and bland, avoid and save your money

We visited Miller and Carter for some Xmas shopping lunch and all I can say is I wish we hadn't bothered, will honestly say it's the worst experience I've ever had at a food establishment. The customer service was terrible we had a drink and some starters then had to wait over 45 mins for our mains, the mains was not great at all we both had the bacon cheeseburger it was dry had no flavor other than the sauce which is shocking as it says the burger is succulent and flavoursome we decided not to finish the food the chips were over done and most stuck together, we then had to get up and get our own cutlery as we had asked the lady for some new ones and she completely ignored what we asked for, we then had to wait another 25 mins at least for another drink. All 3 waitresses kept dropping food or plates and the little girl on the table next to us had her whole lobster tail lunch dropped on her covering her in food and oil. The woman who served them made the most pitiful of apologies and didn't even offer to have the food taken off the bill shocking service will never ever visit a Miller and Carter again in my life. When I paid the waitress laughed at me when I clicked on the no tip option as she must of thought I was joking. Clearly I weren't management need to address the staff on great customer service. If there was a option for no stars I'd would give it. What a waste of a hard earned £79

Came here to celebrate my sister's 15th birthday and the food and service was great. Dave was our server and he was very friendly and informative about the different type of cuts and what would pair nicely. Thank you for making it a lovely evening!

Food was good, service was ok, we did go to get our own drinks mid meal from the bar after waiting ages for someone to come round. Few of the bar/waiting staff had bad body odour unfortunately, not very pleasant when eating.

What a meal 11/10 Service from Dave at MK Miller and Carter was fantastic really nice guys and very professional 11/10 Atmosphere was nice and chill and very clean 11:10

Been here a few times now food is always great as well as the staff. Especially Dave who makes you feel very welcome.

Lovely dining experience and great food as always. Great service from Matteo, will be returning to this branch :)

Amazing. Food was incredible and staff very knowledgeable and nice .

Overall the food was good, however service was very slow due to a large group booking. Our waiter was great and very apologetic, there wasn’t much he could do. Fantastic fillet steak. Tiramisu would have been great too had it not been served sitting in a pool of cold coffee. Unnecessary and adds nothing

I visited with two friends on a Friday night, a couple of weeks before Christmas - my rating is four stars rather than five because we waited quite a while for our mains and dessert was a little disappointing, but otherwise everything was lovely and our waiter was great. I had the spinach and camembert pastry, which was very good and came with a generous serving of seasonal vegetables. I then had the tiramisu for dessert, which was mostly very nice but was unfortunately served in a little pool of coffee - that bottom layer of sponge was absolutely sodden and the taste of coffee was far too strong because of it, but the upper layers were much nicer.

As usual good steak. Had a medium rare steak and a glass of white wine. Kyle(the waiter) was exceptional. Finished off with crème brûlée.

Brilliant service. And Brilliant food. Milton Keynes escape. Thankyou Abhi

Kyle was great. Brilliant service. Good was fantastic.

I went to a Miller and Carter restaurant in York and the service was terrible. They could not fulfil our order and gave me a £75 voucher to spend at another Miller and Carter restaurant. I took my Mum to Miller and Carter Xscape and it was a very different experience. The food was great, the service was great, we had a laugh and it was a great celebration for my Mum's 95th birthday. We thoroughly enjoyed the evening and the good food and service made all the difference. Kyle was our waiter and he was attentive, knowledgeable, polite and charming.

Fantastic steak great service lovely atmosphere

Brilliant food, great service, great beer, will definitely be back!

Some items out of stock but it what I ordered tasted Great

Late lunch after Christmas shopping. Food was great with separate gluten free menu.

Was so disappointed tonight Normally everything is good so not sure what happened this evening Food mediocre Way over priced for portion size Service slow arsetfrom asking for the bill ! Would have mentioned we wasn’t happy with the food but had already waited over an hour and no one asked anyway Such a shame as this place is our go to on a night out

Dave, our waiter was great, food was absolutely amazing, the Ribeyes were cooked perfectly (medium).

I will start with the positives which were the staff, who were lovely eg friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The interior design was nice and the place appeared to be clean and well maintained. The wine glasses were good quality. Unfortunately, what lets this place down is the food. The quality of the ingredients was clearly cheap and the general taste was just meh. I had a burger…which I would say was fairly unpleasant and my fellow diners had steak, and although they requested medium rare, it was more well done. Did we complain? No. Pointless as this is obviously the level of cooking ability they have, but we just won’t be back.

If you’re in Milton Keynes and your stomach is growling louder than a rock concert, head straight to Miller & Carter. I decided to treat myself to a meal here, and boy, was it a treat! The star of the show? A T-bone steak so large it could double as a doorstop. The ambiance is top-notch – think classy steakhouse vibes with just the right amount of cozy. The staff are fantastic, making you feel like royalty from the moment you walk in. They even gave me a mini masterclass on the different cuts of steak, which was both educational and mouth-watering. Now, let’s talk about that T-bone. It arrived on a plate that could have been mistaken for a small table. Perfectly cooked, juicy, and seasoned to perfection, it was a carnivore’s dream come true. Each bite was a little piece of heaven, and I savored every single one. The sides were no slouch either – crispy fries, fresh salad, and a sauce that made everything even better. By the end of the meal, I was so full I considered rolling out the door. But it was worth every delicious bite. If you’re a steak lover, Miller & Carter in Milton Keynes is your mecca. Five stars, and then some!

Really really enjoyed our lunch here. I thought it was good value at £20 for 3 courses. We loved the calamari and steaks. I enjoyed the sorbet but my Dad said the caramel profiteroles were too sweet. The service was great and I can’t wait to come back!!

Customer service was good. We were met promptly, shown to our table, Kyle was helpful and prompt and all other staff were pleasant enough. The food was underwhelming and overpriced. Nearly £200 for a family of 4 is expensive and we didn’t even have 3 courses! We all had calamari to start and it was very plain. The sauce helped slightly, but even that was not very flavourful. My son had a burger and the patty was overpowered with onion. My wife and I shared a butchers block. The ribeye was stringy and full of fat. The rump and fillet were nice but for a steak specialist location we expected a lot more. The chip portion was disappointing. Overall, ok but I doubt we’ll return any time soon as it’s too expensive for average food.

amazing service from kyle. so friendly. food was amazing, steak was perfectly cooked and juicy! and we will definitely be coming back again! thank you

Another visit to a different Miller and Carter and the same result, amazing food, super friendly staff and a thoroughly enjoyable evening had. The Butcher's block was soo tasty with a good variety of meat just right for two. Will definitely be back, back again and as always an excellent steak cooked perfect and amazing service.

Excellent fillet steak and all the trimmings as always

We visited on a busy friday night, and despite the pace of the evening we found the staff friendly and attentive. A bit of a wait for the food which was understandable, but everything was spot on for us. Beautiful steaks, sauces and sides! One tricky karen with absolutely no hint of public grace or decorum made a scene at the hardworking chefs, but we felt they had a brilliant team front and back of house. We thanked everyone specially, with enthusiastic ringing of the bell, which was humbly appreciated. Great effort from a brilliant team, fantastic evening. Special thanks to Simon for being a good laugh the whole time! And creme brulée was top notch!

The ONLY positive was the waitress Deborah. Wine was expensive but was poor quality, the Rioja. The food was bland. We had the scallops side order, cooked well, but no flavour. It was only when I got the bill that I saw that they were meant to be garlic scallops. I think the garlic may have waved at them from across the kitchen.

Had to wait for a long time for our food. When it arrived it was tasty but not worth the wait

Shocking service. Overworked staff who where stressed and struggled to keep up with orders. Food sent back from other customers. Never again

I took my girlfriend for dinner and she ordered an burger the burger had a afro hair in the burger! The food was remade and brought out to find another afro hair was in the food it put us off massively

Our server Abhi was very good attentive but not overpowering and our meal and drinks were perfect we were celebrating our two year anniversary and our night was great would highly recommend to anyone!!! Thank you Miller and Carter!

service was fantastic (Kyle) and all the food was incredible (especially the fillet steak - best steak i’ve ever had!)

The lady who severed us the best she could , but the place was cold everyone had there jackets on the steak arrived perfect but every that wen with it all cold , and I would say it wasn't because the heating it was cold because it must been siting there along time before the steak was cooked , the beer tasted flat so it was lucky enough there was bottle beer to replace that

We came here for anniversary Our server Richard at the xscape Milton Keynes branch was brilliant, he was happy, bubbly 5 stars to him for his customer service. We wasn’t rushed he made us welcome. Food was amazing drinks were amazing just love this place.

Came to Miller & Carter for my birthday meal. From the get go Dave was incredible, just the right amount of attentive to ensure everything was okay but also allow us to enjoy our food! He helping out going the extra mile to sort some things out which was greatly appreciated and would recommend it to anyone!

Poor quality food undercooked and fatty

No matter how delicious the food is, I put 1 star every time. The big "lady" at the reception is an absolutely disgusting, cynical, unmannered woman ,my friends were shocked by her service, bypass this restaurant by the 10th side, there are places where exquisite food and the same service! And here it feels like I came to eat at her house for free! Disgust!!!!

Had a lovely time today at Miller and Carter ! Credit to Abhi who was extremely accommodating, professional and really knowledgeable about the menu when we had queries on our choices as well as making sure we were all good with our food and drinks throughout are time dining in . He really made our experience a great one dining in and we really appreciated his service . The food was very fresh and exactly how we wanted everything from starters, mains and dessert it was all to a high and wonderful standard . Myself and my husband had a wonderful time and look forward to returning back .

At the entrance there was no one attending the reception, he was actually setting up tables and escorting one booking at the time to the next table he made available. When we sat down the waiter approached us quickly, he explained also the menu. Consider it is a steakhouse I was expecting a better selection of wines. The food took a while, we specifically asked for the kids menu to come as soon as ready, they put together with our mains taking ages to be ready. The steak was very average, we had the 50days dry aged selection and I couldn't feel any dry-aging flavour from the meat. It meant to be medium, I believe it was a slightly over towards the medium well. The waiter came to check back before we had the first bite and I asked him to come back later. At that point I realised his effort (I believe the team was struggling to keep up with the pace of the restaurant) and I didn't mention anything to don't drop his mood and motivation. But unfortunately we found it very average, especially one of the sauces, it was far away from chimichurri, we asked to have another one instead.
