Raw randomly chopped vegetables mixed with few cuts of beef. Thai food must be full of spices and fish sauce but used rocks of salt sprinkled on everything even the rice! Nasty food, not even suitable for my dog. And restaurant has a foul stench smell of wet socks

A bit of a mixed opinion… take away on the weekend was amazing but Tues eve awful! Rice the same but all else yuck! Different chefs for sure! Very expensive £14 for a main too and half full pots…

Just had a fantastic Thai lunch with my Family. The quality of the food is really good. I would strongly recommend the food here. I think this is the best Phad Thai I have had for years and we have just returned from a Holiday in Thailand. Many Thanks

Horrible food!! A easy dish like sweet and sour chicken was horrible, raw chicken and the curry is the worst I ever tasted!! Please send your chef to training. You can clearly see the food was not cooked!!!

What a lovely find. Great Thai food - cooked from scratch, brilliant service and great atmosphere. I hope it doesn't get too popular and we can't get a table. A really enjoyable evening. We will be back - regularly. Thank you.

Takeaway ordered....Mixed platter £8 as you can see from the photo not worth the price & overcooked dry food. £19 for king prawn curry dish & rice again as you can see half a container full. Where were the king prawns? Where was the favour? As for the chill & pepper chips at £5 what a joke. Seriously avoid this place unless you like being ripped off. How can an award winning chef cook & send out such rubbish food?

Just had a take away from the mill house. Now I'm not a person that likes too much spicey food, but tried a stir fry and yes it was hot to me, but soooo tasty and what I call clean food (meaning origanal and cooked fresh) I just couldn't stop eating it. The food is so good best thai I have tasted, and the staff so pleasant to talk to. Well done to you all. And yes will be back soon.

Didn't order food, just enjoyed a drink with family, the bar maid was lovely, unfortunately (noones fault) there was a child in a pushchair screaming constantly very upset and stressed this went on for the duration of our time in the building (at least 2 hours) we then chose to leave as conversation was difficult to hear over the sheer volume of screaming, again it is a family place so noise is expected but we found it distressing with how distressed the child was,

Food was lovely , however wouldn’t mind seeing a roast dinner on the menu as an option on a sunday, the young girl who was serving me was rude and wasn’t in any form of what I would call appropriate clothing for work , she looked younger than 18 and there was no other staff member that I was aware of behind the bar.

Went out for a meal with a friend over the weekend , took me 20 minutes to be served at the bar to order my food and get a drink , the girl who served me looked under the age of 18 , she wasn’t very polite , it’s not the first time I have visited and she has been lone working, I’ve also had experiences when I have been served food with a young child at the waiters hip , however the food was nice, however I won’t be returning.

Stood at the bar for ages and everyone else got served before me even new people walking through the door . Underage people behind the bar serving underage customers. The manager seems to have a personal issue against me and she don’t have the business interests at heart . Will not be going here again

Great family friendly local. Since Steph and Kath have taken the pub over its a very different pub from The Mill of old. It's a local that I'm now happy to take the family to for some great food or a game of pool with the kids. The locals are a great bunch, always polite and chatty, and notably keep the language down when the kids are in, a credit to the work the girls have done to turn the pub clientele around. -Keep an eye out for live music, family fun days, music and themed nights. The family fun day that they just hosted was a hit with parents and kids alike. And the Pizzas are knock out! -But be warned, the spicy pizza is just that, if you can handle it. ;)

After buying a pint of beer and a cola, I then asked if I could have some tap water (in a jug to be covid safe) so that I could refill my water bottle, but was refused and was told twice that they sell bottled water. All licensed premises in England and Wales are required by law to provide "free potable water" to their customers upon request. Poor selection of ale, could only see Timothy Taylor on tap.

Well what a lovely place. I had a wonderful evening here, there were such a range of people but everyone was friendly and chatty. The staff were so welcoming and considering this wasn't a local pub to me I was immediately made to feel welcome. The place was clean and tidy, toilets were spotless and smelled lovely. The only thing I can't really comment on is the food, it is very reasonably priced but I did not eat here. Drinks are well priced also. Thank you the Mill for a lovely evening

Service very slow. Very busy at lunch time. Very very noisy. Acoustics bad. Food mixed. Pizza good. Chicken with red cabbage and anaemic fries, pedestrian and flavourless. Sister had a small pizza , garlic and mozerella, tasteless, she left it. No pride in what is served up. Relies on the ambience of the position, Streatley on Thames. Locals deserve better.
