The Old Mill in North Devon - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

So disappointed with our carvery today! Husband had refund on his and now I wish I did too for myself and daughter. Feeling very sick after eating what I would say uncooked sausage (being a cook myself) the potatoes weren’t roast more like boiled with a skin on, (how can you get a roast potato so wrong?)veg mushy and all lukewarm. My daughter couldn’t eat her sausage or turkey as sausage not cooked and turkey had alot of gristle ! There was a couple pots of peas on side but weren’t allowed them as for another customer and as hubby only likes peas, carrots and broccoli asked for extra Yorkie instead but was told blatantly “no” a joke at £17 and being a carvery should be allowed as many as you like ! We try to support local but honestly would never come back. Went outside to cheer up daughter on play area where she fell off the wobbly seat thing and scuffed her back ! Not a good day at all. And now I can’t face to eat anything as the thought of any food now turns my stomach 🤢

We do come here fairly regularly as it’s normally a safe bet. Tonight was surprisingly not great. Generally a good pub with good food. Food was going to be an hours wait which we were told after paying! We didn’t mind as it’s normally good and we weren’t in any hurry and there was some decent live music on. However when the food turned up we were very underwhelmed. I had Hunters Chicken. Clearly not freshly made as it was not warm. Partner had a “Prawn Spaghetti dish.” I believe the chef may have forgotten to put prawns in it. Son had a kids meal with cold chips and hard peas. We’re planning on coming to the carvery for the next day but after also reading other reviews we will book at the Manor House in Georgeham.

What a lovely meal at the old mill after a big day out with the kids!! I ordered the mixed grill while my wife ordered the chicken platter. The meat was cooked to perfection, only issue was a long wait time, but this was understood as it was busy, it was definitely worth the wait. The portion sizes were very generous just a great meal all round! Not to mention how good the staff were, the coloured hair girl (pink) was great with the kids they loved her! I would recommend to anyone, Thankyou old mill!

We were really disappointed with our visit to this place. We had planned to visit for some time and were told over the phone we could not book in advance on a Sunday, we had to just turn up & they would get us seated. This is not the easiest for us having children with additional needs, but we thought we would give it a go. When we arrived it was very busy but we managed to find a table to sit down eventually. We noticed there were other tables reserved and that there was a booking for 41 due in. We went up to pay and get drinks only to be told that we couldn’t have the carvery as the 41 were due in and they needed to serve them first. We run the risk of there being nothing left after they have eaten. We thought this was very poor service considering we were there before them & surely you would accommodate a table of 7 first but they weren’t interested. Offered us something off the main menu but told the wait time was going to be long, by which point my children were very hungry, upset as they had waited so long already. Big disappointment. Carvery looked quite nice as it came through but wouldn’t return due to how the staff made us feel that day & the fact they only accepted bookings for large parties. Not very accommodating for special needs families.

We visited the Old Mill on Sunday 18th around 4pm whilst staying at The Golden Coast Holiday Village. My wife and two grandchildren were looking forward to a lovely meal in a very olde worlde looking pub/restaurant. Sat in the conservatory area as it overlooks the children's play area. I asked for the menu but was told only the carvery and children's menu was available. So, kids chose crispy chicken bites with beans and fries and my wife and i chose the carvery (£16.75 per adult). Kids enjoyed their choice which is more than i can say about our choice. On walking upstairs to the carvery section we saw beef, turkey and gammon. The beef looked extra pink/rare so we avoided that and plumped for the turkey and gammon. There was a good variety of vegetables (no peas) so we chose roast potatoes, carrots, broccoli and parsnip. There was only one choice of gravy and that was beef gravy and various sauces. My suspicions were raised when i first picked up a plate as i had to dig down a few plates to find a warm one. Upon sitting down i tucked in to the much awaited fare , only to be very disappointed. Best thing first, the turkey was edible. However, the gammon was luke warm and chewy! Just not pleasant to eat. The roast potatoes were hard. The carrots i couldn't cut with my knife and the same for the parsnip. The broccoli was cooked but cold. The gravy was also luke warm. All in all, not a great experience. Infact, it makes an average Toby Carvery seem like a 5 star restaurant!! At nearly £17 this is not acceptable. And for any vegetarian out there, the only choice i could see would of been the vegetables from the carvery!! To the management of The Old Mill, you need to take a long hard look at your Sunday offering and how the food is prepared. It's simply not an acceptable standard. I appreciate that everyone's tastes and expectations are different but i have tried to be as honest as possible with this review. So , come on The Old Mill , get your act together and serve up some completely edible home cooked food.

The food itself is always cooked well, the chips never disappoint. Fish is always crispy, burgers and fishcake are tasty and the veggie options are also good. However its always around an hour wait, the kids portion of nuggets are very small and its a pricey place.

Good food 😋 Pleasant staff. Caters for everyone including the dog 🐕 ❤️

Meal took over an hour to come carbonara was watery, had no flavour, garlic bread undercooked and was served to us cold. Sticky toffee pudding was forgotten about, but was nice once it arrived although was clearly rushed, there was clearly also a lack of staff, tables were very sticky too and a wasp flying around the table. Hunter’s chicken was also nice but cold. glad we were given a refund due to this situation, and it was extremely busy with many people experiencing the same. On the positive side, the Sunday carvery was SO GOOD! Well worth the money, amazing quality and quantity as well as cooked fresh, lots of options and friendly staff around and nice atmosphere.

Stopped in Golden Sands and popped in the Old Mill for something to eat. Nice and hot food. Me and my wife had the fish and chips, which was OK. Grand Daughter had the Chicken burger and chips. She loved the chips but was not too keen on the chicken It seemed to be deep fried and she thought it was greasy. Grand son had beef burger and chips and loved it. Was a little pricey but you do expect that when you’re on holiday.

Went for the carvery, which was really nice with plenty to choose from veg wise. I had the turkey, which was amazing, and at £16.95 per adult, I felt this was reasonable priced too. Nice little area for the children too

Extremely slow service, over an hour wait for food. Soggy veg and cold chips

Invited parents over for a meal before using the park facilities. Had all intention of a quick meal, with plenty of time after to use said facilities however the meal which we were told would be 45 minute wait (fair enough) turned into a 2 hour wait! Would have been faster to drive into Ilfracombe for dinner, as I am a local. My poor dad was falling asleep at the table waiting for his food - not a nice experience for them considering I’d invited them over for a meal. No offer of drinks to say sorry. The 2 hour wait was not worth the £60 we paid and there was a table upstairs who waited longer!

While on a family holiday, 2 of us decided to have a quick meal here. Turned out to be an hour wait for our mixed grills. When they finally turned up.. our medium rare steaks were so well done, you could use them as shoe horns! Sausages were also overcooked. Chips were rank. Eggs weren’t appealing either. We both went for the “surf n turf” our meals for an extra £2 each (3 king prawns each) They weren’t even king prawns, no bigger than normal ones. So avoid any upgrades. In fact avoid the food entirely, especially during busy periods. Staff were ok. No problems there. Apart from when we complained, they didn’t seem to care much, or even offer a discount or alternative. Will never go back.

So so food but overpriced for what it is.

Ok service, ok good. Something if a queue to order food or drink but it was busy early evening. Nice location, plenty of cat parking behind. Campsite opposite, hence easy custom most days.

Lovely place to sit and have a drink in the sun! And a bonus was the Lithuanian guy serving me was suprised when I spoke his language.

We visited out of food-serving hours so unable to comment regarding food. The pub itself though is a very impressive establishment. Large, with a play area for kids, inside and outside seating etc. We very much enjoyed stopping for a drink on the way back from horse riding at Woolacombe Riding School.

An outstanding pub The food and beer is of a very good standard and the staff have all been brilliant this week Thank you very much for making us feel so welcome on our holiday

Lovely country pub in the middle of a campsite l, but accessible to all. Food was good and service excellent

Sticky tables, feral children and more dogs than humans. Rip off burger with cremated chicken priced at £11 is absurd. Considering I was specifically asked if I would like salad, a few strands of brown lettuce is not even what the menu states should be inside. Complete waste of money and certainly not the pub it used to be years ago.

Had a great Sunday lunch here, good staff, nice bright downstairs dining area and a play park.

We were staying at the Golden coast village so used the Old Mill on three occasions in the end. We had eaten from the entertainment centre on site and although the food was good it was just what you would expect as the kitchen was very busy during the evening, but as a foodie I can honestly say the food in the Old Mill was in a different league portion size quality of food and presentation was fantastic. So what if you find you have a longer wait sometimes for your order. (we didn't by the way), it was definatley worth it if you want your food that quick go to a Mc Donalds or something like that don't leave negative feedback based on that alone. Well done to the Chef and the staff there you done well by us on all occasions, keep it up.

The food is great and the atmosphere festively pleasant. Friendly staff and a good selection of drinks.

First time visit to the Old Mill, Woolacombe and found it fairly busy on Sunday evening, the food was lovely, meat soft, tasty, veg with a little bite, perfect for me, crispy pots and homemade Yorkshire's! Staff where efficient and friendly.

It is fantastic! Good food portions, selections and variety! Staff are fab! Would recommend going there when on holiday!!

Stayed in golden sands campground and as a treat we visited the restaurant on our last night. Had the fish in beer batter and can happily say not only was it cooked to perfection, the chips were outstanding, but the staff were happy, friendly and professional. (Girl with red hair) served us and was so lovely. It made us feel we should return for another visit one weekend as it’s only 2.5 hours from home and worth the drive for such amazing food and atmosphere. Kids loved the clean playground and was nice to see everyone happy and enjoying themselves.

07/07/2024 had a carvery at around 18:45, had beef and turkey with a sausage in blanket, yorkshire pub, roast spuds and parsnip and various vegetables... By far the best bit of the meal was the cauliflower cheese, eaten in some top restaurants and country pubs across the country and never tasted anything as good as that. The beef could have been cut with a spoon and coupled with the cauliflower cheese, it tasted heavenly, like angels pooing on your tongue. I was asked by our group if I would like to come back for a week next year, the carvery sealed the deal. If management could retain the staff that were responsible for the carvery with a pay rise and bonus that would be good. Another gem found in this region, the staff from reception to the maintenance man, security to the bar staff were all so polite and helpful, a credit to their place of work. Its rare for me to not find something to complain about, so I'm giving Verdant Golden Coast a 10/10. See you next year. Grab yourself an oval 🍽, you won't fit it all on there...😉👌🏼

I really enjoyed my carvery here, there was so many vegetables choices and no word of a lie the turkey tasted like angels had sang over it! Okay … that is a bold statement but it was so tender and super juicy . That is hard to achieve with turkey. Impressed and Very enjoyable. Hot chef too x

Stayed down the road for a short break and came across this pub. We had delicious food on two nights. Husband said his fish was gorgeous, a proper meal with large fish. Not just batter. We also had between us three, the ribs, carbanara, mixed grill with extra prawns, kids chicken bites and sticky toffee pudding. Very reasonably priced too. Friendly and polite staff and a lovely garden for kids.

On a holiday site but as good as any pub.

Excellent service excellent food. And amazing atmosphere

Very limited menu. Very slow for food to arrive and good was cold when it came. Will not return

Scruffy ignorant staff who dont really care, small food order for kids at quiet time took nearly an hr, food missing or wrong item when eventually arrived, allergy nightmare... pasta dish with garlic bread is covered in garlic mayo coz kitchen " ran out of garlic butter!" Huh!!.....My daughter is now ill.. I dont care if you forward this to your senior team, there are enough bad reviews for you to improve the service at least... and allergy notices.... and staffing...lack of real ales. Shame

Probably the worst carvery in north Devon at the moment. Veg was awful, roast potatoes are the worst possible, and no options for meat as they had run out of beef this was at 3pm Although they advertise it until 7pm. Such a shame as it could be a great place but they obviously don't care enough. Multiple tables sent there food back and asked for a refund because of it being cold and not worth the £16.95.

We are staying near by and decided to try it on Saturday night on our way back. My husband and I were warmly greeted on our arrival by warm friendly staff. We ordered our drinks and food and sat at our table. We both ordered steak. It didn't take too long at all for our food to arrive and it was the best steak we had eaten for a long time. We were so impressed we went back today for the Sunday carvery and this was also fantastic and a great portion exceptional value for money. Would highly recommend this lovely pub. We look forward to going back before we journey home.

Excellent pub. Meals were really nice and reasonably priced

Poor customer service Had to wait over hour for our food When it came it was warm Very not impressed Never come back Really poor service

Sticky tables, hour wait for food, stinky waiter, just awful.. waited an hour for food which claims to be great was cold, flavourless and would have rather gone down beach and eaten sand. Portion sizes are okay if you like big plates of rubbish.

We visited last night at 5:30, on the first day of our weeks stay at the park , didn’t receive food until 7:30. The menu proudly states the local suppliers they use, Sausage & mash £10.50, with mass produced brake bros style sausages, and cold gravy, my husbands mixed grill, all was over cooked and black pudding stone cold. No cutlery, napkins, sauces, salt & pepper. 90% of the tables were full with empty plates and glasses with lots of members of staff walking by. We commented to the waitress who looked like she was going to cry, we told her it wasn’t her fault, clearly had alot of complaints. Sadly won’t be re visiting.

So I’m a local and been coming here on and off for years. I’ve seen a huge difference in the place over the last 6 months.! Waiting time for food was around 45 minutes.! Which in a quiet pub is a long time.. Tonight’s experience was shocking..!! I was on the understanding that despite 2 male members of staff stood behind the bar laughing and giggling that the clearing of the place was left and not bothered about.! Plates and sauces everywhere. Napkins all over the floor, to top it off I believe I was being served by a minor.(17 year old). Surely that’s illegal? 🤔 This was heard in a conversation amongst staff.. (sonni,? Sam? ) can’t remember the name but I was shocked at this. The age showed to how the behaviour was most of the night. I will be looking at an alternative place to drink as this whole experience was shocking. Sorry for the review but I need to be honest. Not all negative as the food was good quality and very well cooked. Compliments to the chef…. ☀️

Food was great, when it came. We were not told that there may be a delay but we waited 1hr 20 minutes before our food came. If they had updated us that it may have been delayed, I could have understood. Could have done with toilet on the upper floor as one of our party had mobility problems.

Attached to a holiday park so can get busy with kids. Looks like a nice carvery on Sunday. Good selection of drinks.

We visited The Old Mill this week as a family of 4, whilst on holiday. We were left feeling disappointed by the wait for food and the actual food itself. I also thought the price was a bit steep, top end of what you’d want to pay for ‘cheap and cheerful’ pub food. After a 40-50 minute wait (luckily our children played out side on their lovely play equipment for most of the wait) for 2 kids chicken bites, carbonara and garlic bread, we were all disappointed by what was delivered. I had to check with the waiter that what I was handed was actually carbonara and not something else. It tasted like the eggs had scrambled, and was definitely not creamy in the slightest. The garlic bread was just ciabatta with garlic mayo on the side, which in my opinion was the tastiest thing of the meal. Our daughters’ chicken bites were slightly burnt and dry. One we had with seasonal veg which came in quite a vinegary sauce/dressing, which I don’t think goes with a kids meal, as I struggled to enjoy it. I couldn’t voice our dislike as no one checked back with us the whole time we were there. Overall our experience wasn’t great, which is unfortunate as the location, atmosphere and outside seating/play equipment are really lovely.

Went twice for food , 1st ordered curry hardly any chicken in the curry sauce, should be at least a cubed brest in each , 2nd time mixed grill stake over cooked, rest of meat selection over or under cooked, only meat cooked was sausages, If this place had a decent chef, they could be onto a winner drink prices expensive. All pints should be no more than £4.00 like the rest of the uk and Woolacombe

We had 2 lovely meals yesterday at the The Old Mill. My beer battered Haddock was excellent and my wife really enjoyed her Hunters Chicken. We are going again tomorrow. Good pint of Guinness too !! Paul and Lyn Bowman from Milford Haven.

Only called in for a drink 🍻 Food is served but we didn't eat whilst there.

Food was awful. Onion rings over cooked and tasteless. Garlic bread certainly didn't have garlic butter on it not sure what it was. Off duty staff were rude and mocking to the customers noted on a couple of occasions.

We were very impressed with the quality of food at The Old Mill Pub, and their dedication to sourcing food locally. The locally produced burgers that we had were delicious and the portion sizes were generous and good value. The atmosphere was friendly and welcoming, and the children's playground is superb. They also do good value children's meals. Highly recommend and would definitely visit again. Also worth visiting on a Thursday evening for the quiz night. Open to non residents as well as those staying at the Golden Coast holiday village.

A strange experience. Arrived, went downstairs and bumped into a waitress who said ‘sit upstairs’. It was freezing. Sat downstairs. Writing on pub, see photo. ‘Real ales’. Didn’t have any. ‘Home cooked food’. Whose home? Looked like a commercial kitchen to me. Fine wines. Really? Nice staff, food ok. Very busy. Don’t think we’d go back.

Great escape from the hustle and bustle. Great pub

We had a beautiful carvery. It was just perfect. Delicious food and good service. My whole family enjoyed it and we sure be back when at Woolacombe. Highly recommend!

Very relaxed evening in a very busy bar. Despite being exceptionally busy Rhian was very pleasant and helpful, worked so hard and was polite throughout.

Awful! £16 for adult carvery, the food was terrible, you get two slices of meat, the roast potatoes had no flavour and weren't cooked, sprouts were undercooked Gravy was like water and tasteless, place was messy, dirty, usless staff and overpriced, never going again.

Very friendly staff, they have our dog leftover turkey trimmings and very quick service. Food tasted good, was served hot. The place is dog friendly inside and out.

Not the best experience to be honest. No decent beers on tap just standard basics. Shame on a free house. Food not the greatest. Not hot and not sure what the Event burger contained. Pretty tasteless. Poor effort and such a shame as a lovely place. No gravy or any attention to detail such as lemon/lime in gin and tonics. All in all poor effort.

Lovley Sunday roast dinner at the old mill. As always Lockland the manager goes the extra mile to make sure we are well looked after. Even providing clean comfy blankets for our 2 dogs to sit on. And topping up there water bowls with fresh water. Lovley pub and a lovley friendly environment. Highly recommend

We had a lovely Christmas Day at the mill, food was good, great service and a lovely atmosphere. Great value for money. Thanks for having us.

Amazing food and service - good value for money. We will definitely be back and recommending to to our family who visit this area frequently. I loved my roasted vegetable and lentil hot salad and my husband had the best hunters chicken with home made onion rings as a side.

Decent meal, although a limited menu. Historic building Worth a visit.just to see.

Quite quiet, but as it is one of our local pubs, we quite like it that way!!!

Would of given zero for food if I could. Where to start fish and chips probably the most simple dish to cook and serve in my opinion but my god batter really dark brown and tasted burnt the fish itself was a shade of beige. Fish I get in a inner city fish and chip shop is white and flakey not beige and dried stodge and this from a seaside area Side salad or peas? What a joke chose side salad came in the smallest pot ever no exspence spared. My wife had Pie of the Day Turkey in a White Wine sauce wit Mash again shocking the sauce had a zero taste of wine intact the pie was entirely tasteless the mash was cooked from frozen with no seasoning. The lad who collected our plates asked if we were done we said never really started it was tasteless and disgusting, he took our plates without a word of apology or I will tell chef (I hope he did cause he does not deserve that title) we walked out disgusted and will never walk in again. We are regular visitors to the area and have ate here before. Avoid at all cost go to Ship Aground instead or anywhere. God knows what the mother site of Golden Coast food is like I won't be trying it during our stay.

A lovely 'proper' pub with excellent service, a good range of drinks and delicious food. This pub is dog friendly (downstairs) and offers entertainment a few nights a week (there was a singer on the Wednesday and a very good pub quiz on the Thursday nights). A special mention to Scott behind the bar who provided an outstanding service throughout our stay.

The food was awful. Even the chips which I don’t think you can go wrong with chips but they did go wrong. Food took ages but we expected that as it was busy. Brilliant quiz night but the food lets the place down. This is the second time we’ve given the food the chance but both times disappointed and it wasn’t cheap.

Overpriced and unpalatable. Paid £18.95 for two soggy veg sausages. Tried to charge me two pound more than the meat and had argue with two people to get the price down. All the trimmings were cold and flavourless. The only good part of that roast was the Yorkshire pudding. I should have asked for a refund. Eat here at your own peril.

Great pub on the edge of the holiday park, nice, clean and spacious - my only gripe was the food - my wife ordered the chicken basket which was £15.49 - it was basically frozen Iceland food, we weren't expecting the finest chicken in the land but at £15.49 it wasn't worth it. Please do visit this bar, it's well worth it and a change from the on site bar / food . Staff were great, and even happy to discuss our concern on the food.

ate here twice whilst at staying at Golden Coast First time was for an evening meal, and the food was lovely. Whilst there we saw that they had a carvery on the Sunday, so we went back for that mid afternoon on the Sunday, and again the food couldnt be faulted. service was also good at the bar and the venue itself has a nice oldy worldy feel about it. Would recommend to anyone that was in the area

Whist staying at Golden Coast we tried this pub. The place was clean and the staff friendly. However, the food was of poor quality, portions small, poorly presented and luke warm. The "catch of the day" fish was cod straight out of the freezer. The chips were low quality catering ones. My chicken pie was served in a pie dish covered in flaky pastry that had lost its puff. It was basically a few pieces of chicken in a sauce which was runny like gravy. This was served with a lump of mashed potatoes and peas. In fact I think all the meals were served with peas.

Visited for the Sunday carvery recently. Staff were brilliant and very helpful. Food was good and well prepared. No complaints really. Simple pub grub, so if you are after a simple meal whilst at the Golden Coast holiday park, then why not

Food was quite decent and a nice pub to visit with my dog

Good for a carvery, but it's a carvery in the end.

Food was spot on, environment was great. a lovely pub feel on a holiday park. the staff were all super helpful and friendly.

Had an appalling experience here on our last night. Went out as a family only to be told that they had run out of 4 main dishes on a menu that has perhaps 20. Ordered the food for it to take almost an hour. I had ordered 2 chicken Caesar salads... a sausage and mash and a burger. As soon as the salad turned up, I was absolutely disgusted 😒 😤 £32 for 2 dishes that had iceberg lettuce, a couple of croutons, and half of a chicken brest shared between the two. I wished I'd taken pictures. The rest of the food had been reheated in a fryer, and the gravey made from granuals, which was very lumpy. Complained to the manager who reimbursed the salads. A staff member took them away, and so 2 of us were now sat with no food at 9 pm at night after waiting an hour for a substandard 4 meals. It could be an absolutely amazing pub, but the lack of care and attention to the menu and execution by whoever is in the kitchen pretending to be a chef has let this down massively. I would not eat here again.

Good menu choices tasty food , kids menu with good portions, went during stay at holiday park can be a wait but has park for kids

Food was ok, bit waiting time was long. We we're told 45-60 mins when ordering and it was over 80 mins. The playground was our saving grace to keep the kids occupied during the wait. Staff were nice

Very loud music. Too loud indoors and out. Bar area smelled a bit like vomit. Otherwise could be a nice pub.

Had a carvery here on a Sunday afternoon. Service at the bar was a bit hit and miss, friendly enough but missed a couple of drinks orders, proper job cask was good. TV in the veranda was very loud, and I had to ask for it to be turned down to enjoy our meal. The carvery was good, the meat was brilliant, the beef was very tender and just melted, some of the veg was a bit dry but edible. The guy serving did apologise and was putting fresh veg out as quick as he could, he did mention it had been quieter that day. All in all, it's not bad, really, for a type of site pub. Nice gardens and play area as well for the kids.

Beautiful setting and very friendly bar staff , however dog poo on the terrace patio that had been there for days , waited over an hour for food (originally wait was 40 min) food was very basic

Amazing burgers and chips and great cider selection. I am celiac and bun was gluten-free 👍🏻 lovely meat and crunchy bacon. Service great and food came prompt. Lovely after a long beach day!!!

We have eaten here several Times before and, although basic, some of the meals have been good. When we went this week, the menu options were far fewer than previously with much less choice. We were a family group and as well as kids meals we chose sausages and pork chops as we were pleased to see local butchers being used. Such a shame the same care wasn’t taken over cooking the items. The pork chops were overdone and like leather whilst also being liuke warm at best (as were all the meals) the mash tasted like gloopy instant mash and the choice of veg for all meals was…. Peas. The chips were good though! Such a shame as we have previously had much better experiences and it has such a good park for the kids. Sadly we won’t be eating there again and definitely wouldn’t recommend it for food.

Not what it used to be! We used to love this pub when we visited the Golden Coast when it was the Billy beachball franchise. But it's gone so downhill now. Only about 10 options on the menu. None of them overly appealing. My daughter wanted fishcake, which came with poached egg and salad... For £14... Told of we wanted to change egg and salad for chips we would have to order chips! For £3.50! So we swiftly left and went back up to the clubhouse. The music was also blaring above out heads. Not a nice atmosphere

We arrived found a table, we knew there was going to be a 35 minute wait on food which was fine. The children were happy playing in the park. 1 hour 10 minutes still no food and no explanation, other tables around us were saying the same thing. People that we had watched come in after us we’re getting served. Whilst I accept that this happens and mistakes are made it’s how staff deal with it that makes the difference. The staff couldn’t care less and nobody seems to know what is going on and how long the food will actually take to arrive. Having read some of the other recent reviews we should have known better. We definitely won’t be returning as customer care is non existent.

My expectations were high given the food prices were very high, but sadly the food was bland and less than average. Sorry but this is an honest reflection of mine and my families experience.

We had a lovely cavery with plenty of meat and veg, its also dog friendly which was brilliant. Lovely staff wish we were here next Sunday to have another

Found on google as a recommendation, and arrived without booking which was fine. Meals arrived separately (2 then 2 more later) food was ok but not one single ‘beer, bitter, draught or bottled, or ale’ in the house, only lager. I was told they only...

Amazing food! We chose the pub because of the park for the kids but when sat having a drink you couldn't see the park as the bushes and trees were hiding it. A real shame! We have young children so couldn't leave them - park was brilliant, service was brilliant! Just cut the bushes down a bit so you can see the kids playing from the beer garden!

We went for a meal there at night menu very poor no steaks or steak kidney pie i had fish chips of which could not eat as batter over done on top and under fish batter mushy my grand son had chorizo burger and as he was hungry ate it and was up all night with upset stomach my husband had sausage mash in Yorkshire pud it was inedible and he left it although I spoke to manager on site and he refunded 27 pounds although it had cost 54 with drinks and he apologised we came last year and the food and menus were a hundred percent better and was cooked to perfection we were on site and noticed how it had changed e.g.entertainment.bars.pool I realise there is a recession on but when you go on vacation to a place you have been to previously and enjoyed it and recommend it to your family and friends you get a shock how it has changed so drastically the accommodation was fantastic the entertainment team did there best with what they could do but when on holiday the bar closed as everybody left that was the first I ever saw as it was busy business this must show up on your takings we returned home on Friday instead of sat very disappointed i work in hospitality and live in Lincolnshire I believe my husband has forwarded a review and hope that you take these comments on board and answer these questions thankyou

The Old Mill pub on the edge of the Golden Coast holiday site was a perfect mix of oldy worldly and modern, with some lovely garden areas. Food was very good too. I'd definately go back.

Avoid this pub like the plague if you want a decent meal. Waited ages for our food and when it eventually arrived it was stone cold due to it being left in the dumb waiter for over ten minutes. Will never frequent this pub again...

26-27/6/23 Quite an interesting old building. Awkwardly on various levels, making for inconvenience for both customers and staff, but it is an old building, and not built to be a pub.

Thank you 12 of us had the best meals here last night fantastic staff 5 star food will defo be back and pass on to everyone we know to dine here . lovely night thank you to chefs staff . PERFECT night could not fault...

Menu is lacking options. Food was very poor standard, low end prices but you would want a better quality meal. Even if we were to send the food back the replacement would be of similar quality! Fish cake dish says it come with a runny poached egg, you would want the main part of the dish to be good not a hard boiled brick! Every other element of the food was dry and just about edible. Avoid this place, better options locally.

What a fantastic pub, great food cooked to perfection and served by great friendly staff. Can recommend fish of the day, bangers and mash and the fish cake is to die for
