We went in for the festive lunch last Sunday. We were welcomed by Leena whose service throughout the afternoon was warm and friendly. We indulged ourselves with 3 courses from their lunch menu. We both started with the Prawn cocktail and Chicken Liver Parfait which were excellent. Followed by the traditional roast turkey, which was great with all the trimmings. I finished off with the Yule log, which did not just look very festive but was an absolute delight, my partner had sticky toffee which looked and tasted incredibly good. This restaurant is a wee gem tucked away and an absolute delight from start to finish.

My friend had chosen this eatery for a pre Christmas treat. Sadly the food was dire and as she had organised the booking I didn't want to say anything so ate what I could. I ordered brisket. Firstly the entire plate of food was luke warm. The beef was tender but frankly it was so totally tasteless. The "duck fat roasted potatoes" were smooth, pale brown, lightly roasted and had no hint of being cooked in duck fat. The Yoorkshire pudding was risen, burnt on the bottom and doughy and partially raw inside. The broccoli florets were mostly stem, which you would have needed a steak knife to cut. The sprouts may have been fine, but I gave them a swerve. The carrots were edible, but tasted of nothing again. The gravy served nicely in a little copper pot was pale brown, very thin and again luke warm and lacking any strength of taste of anything. It really was poor given the price of £21.00. The desert of a Yule Log priced at £10.50 and arrived standing up! I even commented to the smiley waitress that she had a good job getting it to the table without it falling over! It was a slice of recently frozen, mass produced cake. A half inch thick slice of the sweetest most unpleasantly artificial tasting cake I have the misfortune to be served in many years. It was accomanied by the equivalent of two teaspoons of amaretto cream and what was supposed to be a small scoop of ice cream. However the scoop was actually hollow and melted into a puddle shortly after. Then to add insult to injury some weird form of tiny hard hundreds and thousands had been sprinkled over the top. Again I said nothing and did eat some of it, but only because I knew I was paying through the nose for it. Goodness this place is lovely to walk into and the staff we encountered were really attentive and pleasant. However, if they are going to produce food of that quality every day then I would not recommend. Currently they are over promising and undelivering on the quality of their food which is also not value for money.

We booked for Sunday lunch and were given a 1.5 hour time slot. The restaurant has been given a complete revamp with the decor and everthing looked very festive and sparkly. Unfortunately that was the nicest thing about the lunch. The food was pretty awful. I had turkey my friend had the beef. I think the veg were frozen the “goose fat” potatoes were tasteless and the turkey was a bit watery. My friend said the beef was also tasteless. The dessert was appalling (although I did eat it) thin slice of frozen Yule log tiny scoop of icecream similar tiny squirt of cream then some sort of hard hundreds and thousand on the plate. Not value for money at £10.50 main dishes £21 Would not recommend the food here if this is normal standard. Expensive and poor quality 🙈

Wonderful evening meal on the 23rd Nov along with breakfast on the 2 days we spent at the Inn. The ambiance, service and quality of the meal, and wines, couldn’t be faulted. Attention to detail, locally sourced produce, imaginative twist on traditional Scottish fare made our stay an experience we can’t wait to repeat.

Visited the Old Mill Inn's restaurant Hearth for dinner this week and have to say that I was blown away! Beautiful setting, beautiful meal, paired with a warm and inviting ambience, we left sincerely very chuffed. The service was great, seamless and quick yet personal. We even got some recommendations for what to explore in Moray. When we travel so far north again, will make sure it's on our way!

With great delight we visited Hearth again on Friday for dinner and was warmly welcomed. With difficulty we made our choice as everything on the menu was so appealing. We chose Trout with trout mouse, potatoe salad and pickled cucumber my husband said it was delightful. I had belly pork which was sweet, juicy, crispy and came with a pairing of buttery mash delicious redcurrant glaze which suited it very well. For mains we went with two favourites Biriyani Arancini always delicious but the coconut curry sauce seemed even more sumptuous if possible as was the crispy potatoes with salsa. Also Roe and Red dear a bit different this time with an inspired pairing of blueberry and bramble sauce with a hint of dark chocolate (I know! but it so works). We were pretty full by this time but dessert it would be rude not to. To eager to get into them I forgot my photos but take it from me the Mango lassi with panna cotta and apple tart with cinnamon custard were as tasty as they were beautiful. The staff here are friendly and attentive but so unobtrusive. Sophie and David give you a lovely dining experience here we're so luck to have Hearth. Congratulations to them and their team they so deserve any accolade that cones their way. Highly recommended, can't wait to be back.

During our family vacation in Scotland, we stumbled upon the Old Mill Inn and decided to dine at Hearth. Let me tell you, it turned out to be an absolute gem! Sophie and David welcomed us with open arms, making us feel right at home. They were incredibly accommodating, even with our requests, and that meant a lot to us. The place had a cozy vibe, and the food was simply top-notch. Every dish, from the fresh bread rolls to the perfectly cooked monkfish, was a delight. And that venison burger with haggis? Oh, it hit the spot. What stood out most was the genuine care Sophie and David showed to all their guests. It wasn't just us; they treated everyone with warmth and kindness. We're definitely planning to return for our next vacation. Sophie and David, thanks for making our evening so special. Hearth at the Old Mill Inn is a must-visit for anyone looking for great food and a warm welcome in the Scottish Highlands.

Visited with a few friends as part of a dinner club. Lovely setting with a great ambience and welcoming staff. This is a restaurant that is clearly living in the shadow of its AA Rosette and is charging obscene prices for what I would class as average food. Pork Belly was the starter and to say it was unimaginative would be an understatement. A chewy section of pork belly was accompanied with a berry style compote and decorative swirl of mashed potato. If you’re after a crispy piece of pork crackling and a succulent layer of fatty pork meat then you’ll be disappointed. Instead you’ll be welcomed with a chewy section of pork that hadn’t been cooked low and slow, failing to render the fat and crisp the skin. The table then had mains of a burger and steak. The burger, whilst averagely priced these days, tasted okay and was well accompanied with classic burger dressings such as a slice of gherkin and some burger sauce. With it you get a poorly sized portion of chips that leaves you wanting, contributing to a very lacklustre plate of food. A small section of dressed salad leaves wouldn’t go amiss here to make the plate more presentable. The steak was a poorly selected cut of meat that for a whopping great sum of £32.50 left a lot to be desired. The chefs ability to perfectly cook this to the desired taste adds nothing if the cut is poor and the table found themselves with chewy sirloin steaks that were not on par with the fee demanded. Accompaniments are aplenty but if you want the privilege of adding a sauce you need to add another £4 to the price of an already expensive steak. The whiskey sauce was nothing more than a bland, off coloured bechamel with no taste of whiskey or mustard coming through. Certainly not a plate worth just shy of £40. The overall impression of the first two courses left the table in a position where nobody wanted any dessert out of fear it wouldn’t deliver. The staff and ambience are great but the food failed to deliver on this occasion. A shame for a restaurant that displays its AA rosettes with pride. The AA rosette clearly isn’t what it used to be.

We stayed three nights, two of them with my niece and her husband, both Londoners with pretty developed experience and taste in matters of travel and food. We all loved the place and the warm welcome and thoughtful attention. Our rooms were nice, the beds very comfortable. The breakfasts are a winner, with three lovely choices, each a great way to start. For us, though, the star was the night we celebrated my wife Jeanne’s 81st birthday with a special dinner. The food was fabulous, with the vegetarian among us beautifully catered to and all of it - from starters to dessert - top class ... the chefs here are seriously good. The family treated us to a bottle of really good champagne which launched our exploration of their curated list of local single malts (the Benromach 21 sent us on an exploration in the nearby distillery a day later). In between we took in Macbeth’s hangout, the Cawdor Castle. Was hard to leave the Inn, the McLeans, the area. Bless you guys, may you prosper … we hope we make it back come time.

The place was empty we were in at 5.30pm food arrived, i had turkey dinner my wife had sticky chicken. My turkey was really dry and veg was hardly cooked, couldn't get my knife through sprouts or carrots. Solid. My wife's sticky chicken was way over salty and un edable. We complained after hardly eating anything. They gave us our meal for free not that i would of paid for it anyway it was well under par for the prices they are charging. 2nd time thats happened, happened last year but thought we would give it another go as pictures look nice but don't be fooled. We won't be back thats for sure. Terrible!!

We enjoyed a lovely family lunch (8 diners) here for the first time today. I had a beef Sunday roast followed by a chocolate ale cake. Both courses were amazing, it was the best Sunday lunch I have had for many many years. I will definitely come back.

With my wife and father in law. Most welcoming and efficient. Excellent ale in the garden and great food. Roast beef melted in the mouth. Had to request more roasted potatoes which were provided quickly and free. Will revisit when next in area.

Lovely food, good service but very small portions for prices charged. Roast beef (beautifully cooked) was accompanied by two small potatoes and a spoonful of veg. Really not worth the money charged.

Quite simply, one of the best Sunday roasts you will ever have. Do you need any other reason to visit? Tender meat whether pork or beef, delightful red wine gravy and perfectly cooked vegetables with a couple roast potatoes - the perfect portion, the perfect Sunday afternoon.My only slight negative is the menu prices which seemed a tad expensive but is to be expected in the area. Great service, Covid measures in place and plenty of space between tables and plenty of space to accommodate as well.Looking forward to going back in our next trip.

My husband and I went to the old mill inn to celebrate our anniversary. The greeting was very friendly, the staff had our table ready and the menu board for us to see. There are lots of gluten free food options for my husband, which we find quite hard to get anywhere else (they can also adjust some of the food to be lactose free too). The atmosphere is fantastic and the staff are very friendly and helpful. With regards to Covid 19:We felt very safe and comfortable. There was hand sanitiser at the door and a notice about wearing masks. Once you are seated you can take your masks off. The staff wear masks and sanitise the tables as soon as customers leave. The staff adhere to the government guidance and it does not take away from the amazing service and food you receive. We will definitely be going back again.

My wife and I went out for our first meal since February, we made a specific effort to get to Brodie from Elgin by public transport so we could both enjoy a drink and were not disappointed.The Oldmill has been refurbished and is looking lovely. The staff were all very Covid aware, wearing masks, have a one way system set up, hand sanitizer available and are following the guidelines.To start I had the wood pigeon, cooked perfectly, slightly pink, in buttery pastry. My wife had gnocchi. My pigeon needed a slight bit of seasoning but that’s personal taste and my wife said the gnocchi was so good she would have loved it as a main.For mains we both had lamb, this again was cooked very well, slightly pink making the meat so tender. Again for me I needed a little seasoning, but I like salt. Also I would have liked a little extra something on the plate, maybe a potato fondant or a bit of creamy mash, something tattie related. I would have ordered a side, so maybe a little more info with that course. The haggis with that was amazing, nice kick and seasoned well.Desert was sticky toffee....amazing, really well made. Silky ice cream with soft sticky sponge and a lovely sauce. No need for the honey comb on the top in my opinion, it melts and goes chewy, maybe break it up and put it through the ice cream for texture or have it as shards on the side.Boozy coffees for after, really well made, best wobbly I’ve had, bit of sugar in the extremely strong coffee, help the cream float, class.All washed down with a bottle of cotes du rhone for me and a couple of glasses of white for the wife, perfect wine for the meal.Cost was reasonable given the quality of the food, with a drink for the staff thrown in with the standard 10%.If my wife and I manage out again anytime soon I’ll be returning here over anywhere else.

We live in strange times and we are quite wary of eating out. But on our staycation we were recommended The Old Mill Inn. As we were a family coming together for a holiday we rang ahead and the staff were so well informed on current regulations- not only were they so accommodate but we were confident about our families safety. Now the important bit...the service and the meal. From the moment we arrived to saying goodbye we were in astounding hands - from knowledge of the food and wine and the time to provide exceptional service, we were made to feel special. My dad at one point said you can tell they’ve chosen this as a profession and it makes me happy to be served by them. The food—my god the food! Locally sourced where possible it is quite possible the best Sunday Roadt I’ve had. Each plate was near empty and a table full of satisfied bellies. In short - if you want some high quality food and service with an array of craft gins and whisky’s you’d be stupid to pass this Resteraunt up.

As we sit and look back on our wedding day, we cannot thank David, Sophie and Team Old Mill enough. The planning of our big (little) day was so easy, but ever changing with the Covid guidelines. The team here did everything they could to help in the run up to our wedding. The food was exceptional, the chef is first class, the service was without fault, our room was lovely, and breakfast excellent. Our family thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of our special day, and we all cant wait to return. Covid guidelines were adhered to throughout and we felt safe as guests to enjoy ourselves. 5 star all round, 100% positive feedback for the guys. Big round of applause to Team Old Mill, we cant wait to return. Kev & Lynne x

Stayed for a few nights. Cosy room although forget having an early night as we could hear everything from the restaurant /bar area down stairs. Breakfast was amazing, especially for the price.

Don't associate the Old Mill Inn with the caravan park of the same name. We travelled 6 hours to stay in the caravan park only to be let down by the guy in charge (Mike). When we asked in the Inn for help to find somewhere local they automatically offered up 3 of their rooms to us at a discounted rate. We ended up staying over, had the most amazing dinner with a few locally brewed ales, and finished off with a beautiful full Scottish the following morning.The rooms are quaint and cosy with comfortable beds. The best thing about the Inn are the owners and the staff, all of whom were incredibly attentive and friendly, especially Sophie. Would happily recommend

First time staying here as it was recommended to me and it didn't disappoint. Staff are welcoming and helpful, room was nice and clean and the bed was very comfy! Best part was the food which was amazing and fresh.
