The Stonemill in Warrington

Be warned, it's not a carvery any more!

We visited as a family and when we ordered the food, at the end (after the order had gone through but payment had not been made) whilst then deciding what drinks we wanted we were told that the drinks offer with the food couldn't now be done as the food order had already been done. C'mon, the member of staff could of cancelled the order (it was done 30 secs earlier) and the redone it so the soft drinks were included but told it was "too late". Rubbish. Food ok, don't order the pork belly it's not nice, though the gammon was lovely.

Great pub great beer great food. Nice decor. Cosy and warm

Really great pub. Staff are brilliant in particular Ryan. So friendly.

Under new management with the same good Joseph Holt food menu. A group of friends out for a meal and a catch up. Plenty of tables where we could sit. The TV got a bit loud with adverts at the end of the evening.

Very good quality food & very friendly staff, the draft beer was kept to a high standard and served well. All in all a very pleasant Sunday dinner 10/10

I am lactose intolerant and after a day of browsing in this new area to me, first visit ever in fact, stopped for a much needed coffee. No other milk other than ordinary milk is on the regular menu, however, when asked the lovely friendly Ann whom served me said there is nothing but regular milk she would get a pint of oatmilk from her car to give me my much needed coffee break. Not only offering me the use of a topping, but insisted I had a latte made of it, and asked another friendly member of staff to get it from her car! I got my latte, enquired quietly as to her name and reported to the friendly manager. Ann you deserve a reward, they say customer service is dead, NOT here it's not. THANK YOU ANN, from the very weary happy, will return visitor! Tracy.

Food was lovely , cannot fault it but we ordered 2 courses and a drink meal for two. A new member of staff took our order and did not process it correctly, we were not asked at the time of ordering about our drinks. Therefore was told we could not have them by another member of staff, who said "nothing I can do about it" . They didn't even try ! Won't be returning.

Popped in here for a birthday meal with the family, food was lovely ( compliments to the chef ), service 10 out of 10 .& with the up & coming events happening this place 🤞will only get better & better 😁

Semi semi service Ales could be better Asked about allergies

Really hate giving bad reviews but been here three times now and think it will be the last time, staff amazing cent fault them, the place is beautiful and clean and they do lots of good events but the food let's it down every single time chips half cooked, tastless or overpowering with no option to change on some items as it comes prepared like that 🤨, forgot cheese and bacon on burger which was brought out in a dish instead of on burger so had to scrape it onto burger which was half cold by that time, curry and rice tasted like a microwave meal. Mash tastless, if they improved the food I think this place would be amazing but for £50 everytime we go and me not like the meal im reluctant to go back.

Food was really cold and with almost no spice. Loved the setup tho!

The Carvery is lovely! Certainly better than the more well known Toby Carvery up the road. Desserts take an absolute age to arrive at the table though.

You must try the ultimate burger 🍔 😋

Very nice food, called in on a Friday evening on the off chance of a table, no problem, would have preferred more choice on steaks, not keen on rump, but everyone enjoyed it.

We went for a family get together there were 19 of us and the service and food was perfect no complaints at all we will all be going again in the new year thank you

Great food. Lovely staff. Offer a Blue light Discount for an added bonus, which is lovely of them to offer. Lots of kid focused Christmas events coming up too. Which look great. Breakfast with the Grinch will surely be a highlight.

Kitchen staff were really rude and argumentative One the cooks tried starting a fight with a fellow customer 0/10 would not recommend Rougher than sandpaper

Food - great portions and really nice. Had lasagne, cauliflower cheese and kids sausages mash and beans. Service- friendly service but food was 35+ mins. Atmosphere - was a quiet Sunday at midday. Men downing pints but not rowdy.

Such friendly staff they even have an area for your dogs, with a pawstation with water and treats great ice cream counter too 😋

Lovely food with family and friends for a birthday meal

Food was really nice would recommend and visit again

Excellent food, service and value. Lovely atmosphere and very friendly helpful staff. Small problem but was sorted quickly and effectively. We enjoyed our visit and we will be back.

I've been here a few times when in the area for business, and it stands out as having good food, a comfortable atmosphere, and cheerful and helpful staff. Above all, I've been very happy with the meals I've had, and wouldn't miss their Simply Ice Cream dessert.

Lovely quiet pub, perfect for a nice drink and some lunch. Service was excellent and the food was great. Dog friendly too. Lovely atmosphere and the family, dog and I had a great time. Loads of parking and shops. Thank-you very much.

Food absolutely shocking wouldn't give it to a dog .the staff are very nice and polite ..atmosphere was pretty dead... music was fit for a funeral .

Just stopped for a drink, didn't eat there. Place was spotless.

Great place to have dinner with the kids and family, not too crowded at all, just a walked in.

Lovely atmosphere. Cheerful staff.

Very nice food and brought quickly. Spacious. Surprised they close the kitchen at 8pm.

Been here a few times and everything was perfect would definitely recommend this place

Slow service and food not that nice !!! My first visit to this place, may have been an off day but not impressed

Very welcoming staff, table service was excellent, prices are a bit dear but was very good quality.

Best food had in a pub for a long time. So much better than winwick key.

Nice place to eat, vegan options and good atmosphere for families.

We are from Manchester and we make the trip to stone mill for so many reasons the food is excellent and the staff are so friendly Allan who’s been our waiter a few times is so nice and always goes that extra mile not just with us you can see it with everyone couldn’t rate Allan highly enough but this spreads through to the rest of the staff aswell location is prefect aswell to be sat outside in the beer garden couldn’t rate stonemill highly enough!

Very friendly place and the food was okay. Our French waiter was very friendly and accommodating. Made good suggestions and brought a French European vibe to the place.

Very good with my daughters nut allergy.

I've been in a couple of times now and the food is always fantastic, staff friendly, and it's usually fairly quiet

Friendly.carvery is great for all the veg more than your 5aday

I chose 3 small plates and I wasn't disappointed, didn't think i would be able to finish them all but I did, I was stuffed our waiter was excellent great service,

Went as it was on the way home. Never again. Stood at the bar and completely ignored by the bar staff only got served when prompted by another member of staff. I was on the only stood at the bar. She was not happy to be told to serve me. As she was talking to her another work colleague. The toilets are in desperate need of a clean and the sticky carpet on the entrance needs shampooing. The smell of stale cigarettes inside made us sit outside. This is definite the worst one I've been to in a while. There is not atmosphere as there are more staff than customers.

Had a Superb afternoon meal with my Dad pleasant staff. Happy to help and food and drink VERY GOOD!!!

Aestheticly a really nice modern pub and the staff are really friendly. There doesn't seem to be any atmosphere though.

Nice place to sit in/out, staff really pleasant, service was quite quick, relatively value for money, but only had drinks mainly.

Just had a lovely eggs Benedict with avocado! Huge portions, nice and hot and very tasty. Thank you 😀

Had a tasty breakfast. Good portions. Friendly staff. Clean and tidy. Perfect stop, just off M62.

Nice food, great staff, bobbed in after shopping for evening meal, came away full and contented.

Nice warm place plenty of room various seating areas, not welcomed at the door so found our own seat. Was not sure of the protocol so asked at the bar. Chose meals and state table number. Queuing was a little difficult as no one knew which queue was for which..meals or drinks 🤔 and some people got disgruntled as thinking people were pushing in. Whilst ordering our food, the member of staff took a phone call cutting us off mid sentence! (Obviously quite understaffed but the staff working were friendly and polite at all times) Informed the meals would take 1 hour to have as they were mad busy that day and when they have taken the carvery down ‽. Strange ... to take the carvery off when it's a carvary place to eat 😳?? And what we actually went for as it was a Sunday. We could see the carvery area still had plenty of food on counters ?? so again felt confusing to us to stop carvery servings . We got told by staff "Too many had already been in and they did not accommodate for more customers wanting a carvery" It was 2pm !! So with that information had to sit back down to check out the menu and reorder our different choices, joining the queues again. Drinks alittle pricey but not overly. Our meals arrived as stated 1 hr later. Photos make the dishes look nice but in actuall fact this is pub grub served on a very large plate making them feel they are serving fine dining and charging for that dining. The steak was ever so small in portion size and not cooked to the specified choice, charred too much on the outside, so tasted just burnt ..and alittle over done, no sauce/s to complement it and no options to buy some on the menu, the dish was tasteless no flavours what so ever, a very dry dish . The salmon again looked nice but the mash potatoe was watery and flavourless, they had a yoghurt sauce with cranberries, this made the mash potatoe very cold bland and really not nice to eat at all. The salmon slightly over cooked and again portion size so small that it was more suitable for a child as an adult. The spinach under the potatoe and salmon ended up being very soggy and cold. The pricing of these dishes does not warrant the quality or quality. The chicken skewer look great but on reflection it was only 4 pieces of chicken breast with some peppers and onion. Again no choice of a sauce to compliment other than the wee little pkts of vinegar brown sauce and mayo, so making this meal very dry to eat. Plenty of chips, side salad was okay but the garlic butter for the bread was not nice and so could not use it . Again for the price, these meals are quite small in quanity and not really good quality for what you are paying. Unfortunately not the first time to be very disappointed with this venue, group decision not to go back to this place for any meals ever again 😢

nice place. nice staff, nice environment

Excellent food and good atmosphere for drinking.

Bit too keen to clear the table - one of the group was still eating.

I appreciate Covid and the way the world is has had an effect on this establishment in terms of the operating costs but having visited on mothers day it was overall a good experience with all my expectations being met. I would certainly recommend visiting.

On Saturday we went for a lunch and I must admit the lasagna and pizza was amazing, but unfortunately my rare ribeye steak was burn on the outside and tasted bitter. Also my side salad was not fresh and flat so I a bit disappointed

Visited the Stonemill Warrington last night to celebrate my daughter and granddaughter birthdays, everything was perfect, the staff really looked after us they couldn't of done anymore, pleasant, happy & well mannered, They even sang 'Happy birthday' Our server was named 'Alain' he was a pleasure to speak too. Thank you to all your lovely staff & great food, reasonably priced too. Cheers. X

Nice relaxing quick drink with my daughters

Had a lovely time last weekend here celebrating my brother's birthday. Delicious food but even better staff! A young sever named Klaudia took our orders and was extremely polite and friendly. Very cozy atmosphere inside made even better by our pleasant service experience.

Load of tosh go to greggs instead

Food took very long to come. staff were rude. I wouldnt reccomend if you want your food to come fast took us about 90 minutes. You may aswell go to greggs over the road.

Brilliant staff an food pitza party fab too

Lovely quick service, thanks to Kane for the great service!

Used to be really good but seems to struggle after covid

No issues. Nice place. Great fish and chips

Great pizza staff go above and beyond

Food is very average to be honest

Sorry but Sunday lunch was very bland and waited 45mins not the best this time

If you want your food in less than 90 minutes then don’t bother coming here . Not even half full and waited over 90 minutes with the staff not very helpfull

Great food lovely staff competitively priced

We were refused service as we had costa coffee cups in our hand. We were unsure whether we had to sit down ourselves or be seated, so we asked a member of staff what the protocol was. She told my dad that as we had Costa Coffee cups with us, we would not be allowed in the pub. He asked if we could have some cups to pour it in but the manager refused. Considering it was only a takeaway cup, we felt really unwelcome and judged. If there was a sign on the door then fair enough, but there wasn’t. An odd policy which lost them money.

Never had half the food we ordered won't be going again

Very disappointed with the boxing day festive meal. It was booked for 4 adults and 2 children under 5. We waited 40 mins for the starters to arrive, we had two children under 5 who were hungry.the starters arrived and we waited another 40 mins for the mains to arrive ,they brought the adults out first. I had to go and ask where the children's meals where, when ours arrived they had no Yorkshire pudding left. There were two pieces of turkey,two sprouts and 3 carrots, two stuffing balls and two sausages which were under cooked as pigs in blankets. The children's arrived with Yorkshire pudding, broccoli, cauliflower,carrots and green beans . When I asked where the rest of our veg was I was told we had a standard carvery. As I had complained about the service and the meals they deducted 20 percent from the bill. We had been there a number of times before Christmas and the food and service was good. This was very disappointing as it was a treat for the family.will definitely not be going back.

A good place for Xmas lunch. Very efficient service. Possibly not enough vegetables on plate. Not too noisy.

Been here three times now and each time has been really good. Food is great and the staff are brilliant, very helpful. Eight of us had a Xmas drink plus food and not one complaint. Definitely will be going again.

Nice pub food. Pretty inexpensive too.

One of the best places in Warrington. No doubt about that. I loved it. Spacious, neat, warm and child friendly.

Delicious food lovely lovely staff

Good family friendly chain pub/diner

Asked for bacon well done but think it was some sort of joke tbh, bit of a p*ss take and food was also cold.

Lovely food,nice staff. The Bulmers cider was expensive at £5.70 a bottle.

I had steak pie, very good, lots of meat although the chicken kebab my friend had looked delicious. She sed it was. Our waiter he was lovely and friendly.the bar staff were nice and smiley too. Lovely lunch xx

Hit and miss at the moment. Pre covid, it was a fantastic place to eat, now, shortage of chefs, no carvery, food over cooked and microwaved plus long delays, staff complaining in public about things. Never going back as plenty of better pubs about in Warrington.

Really disappointing meal I ordered a steak and asked for it well done and it was burnt on the outside and really rare in the middle and swimming in blood. I returned the meal and they said I would have to wait another 15 minutes so I didn't get to eat with everyone else and didn't get an apology I was so put off by the steak I asked for the chicken in Stilton and mushroom sauce and didn't enjoy that either they had reheated the chips and then covered everything including the veg with way too much sauce which didn't taste nice at all what a waste of money I'm sick of getting bloody ripped off!!! Won't be going here again

Always nice and clean restaurant

Just had the worst meal ever. Tasted like a microwave meal. This place has gone right down hill. No longer serve a carvery at which was the highlight of the menu. Even the drink tasted wrong. Never again will I go here. Far better pubs in Warrington to eat.

We have always had fabulous meals here but haven't been for a while so decided to return. We were told minimum 1 hour wait for food even though there must of been about 10 people in the whole place on a Sunday. When it arrived we all got different size portions for exactly the same meal. Tiny portions with not even a spoonful of gravy. It was just warm and didn't taste very nice.Was still hungry and got takeaway on way home. Never again 🤬

I went to the Stonemill for the first time this evening for the curry and drink offer. Jemma was very friendly and went out of her way to help with my food and drink choice. The curry was amazing as was my drink. I will be doing a return visit to The Stonemill in the near future 😊.

Had a lovely meal here with my Daughter and Grandson,quick service and a nice atmosphere,friendly staff,would highly recommend.

Lots to choose from on the menu. Friendly helpful staff. Food was piping hot and tasty. We will definitely be back.

Good food, poor choice of beer and doesn’t have sky sports

We came today(Friday)at 7 pm and we were told by older fella in glasses that they didn't cook any more because it's was too late 😂. He turned away customers by telling them no more food. I liked this pub a lot but now I'll consider if I'll go there again. It's a shame 🙁

Lovely carvery here. Shame its going downhill though😞

Gorgeous food and great service

One person on the bar. Had to wait about 15 minutes to be served! Not the bar lady's fault management had other staff available but did not send them out to help until it was too late! Walked in and got told they were closing at 9 it was 8:30

Not so good anymore since it has been taken over by Holtz. All the good things about the place are gone now, just another run of the mill place. Its such a shame but we won't be gong back. 😔

Said I'd never come in here after last time, just leaving, definitely not coming back, has so much potential, only Oliver knows his stuff, definitely working in the wrong place mate

As usual, Aldi had everything I went in for. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Absolutely disgusting place, customer service is shocking, foods awful. Would definitely not recommended

Nice pub with very reasonable prices

Not enough staff and a restricted menu but no reason why, but food was nice when it arrived

No chefs in there. Running a very limited menu & a minimum 45 minute wait. We decided to leave so cannot review the food.
