The Windmill Inn in Melton

Great food Great prices Great portions Great staff Had the double fish and chips, and it was 2 whole fillets of fish MASSIVE and tasted Great.

Fantastic quiz on a Thursday night. Kirsty is a fantastic host.

Always great food and friendly staff

Rude bar staff and very unhelpfull

Holly Marie is an absolute joy to visit when we come to The Windmill. She always takes time to speak to us and ask how we are doing. The food was, as always, top notch and we couldn't fault it.

Usually excellent, only now and again so they lapse with their high standards

Brilliant local pub! They always put on events for children at Easter,Halloween, Christmas and hogmany which is excellent value for money.

Love going to the windmill for dinner

quite disappointing that they didn’t have a nut roast and that their roast potatoes were all cooked in beef fat as i would have loved a sunday roast. but the food was absolutely delicious and will definitely be coming back in the future! :)

my wife and i went for a meal here to celebrate her birthday belatedly.The food was absloutely superb perfectly cooked and so tasty.We are used to eating out quite regular and so glad we chose this pub restaurant.The staff were very attentive and efficient too. Thanks for a great evening we will be returning soon .

One steak was underdone. 3 tables pushed together for a group of seven. 3 different table heights and all tables wobbled when cutting food. Replying to your reply. The booking was made on the 2nd of Oct on your own booking systen and not last minutes. I think 3 days is enough time to sort out some tables and the pub was not busy. If needed I will bring my booking confirmation in to let you see it.

We had a lovely evening in the Windmill.The food was great,the service was very friendly in a nice relaxed atmosphere.Thank you .

Great food well priced served by efficient friendly staff.

After a friend recommended the Windmill again and it is very close to home we decided to try. Excellent choice on the menu-something to suit all tastes and ages. Tandoori chicken and combo grill we had was great. We also enjoyed a smooth bottle of white wine. Only reason I've not given full marks is I wasn't advised when ordering food to gain points on my new app. I ordered food to take away and got points for that. However the double chicken burger I ordered turned out to be a single.... very tasty but not the 2 pieces I had ordered so not full points this time. We enjoyed our visit so will be back.

Go to the windmill fairly often with the family. Food is always 1st class and the staff are always cheerful they can't do enough for the customer

Have been here on numerous occasions. The last one for a family birthday meal . The food was delicious warm & went down a treat , the desserts are amazing. The staff always go above and beyond and couldn’t be more helpful.

Brilliant be of food nice atmosphere and quick turn around will definitely be back

The chicken drumsticks were nice and crispy, but the salted caramel sundae was missing one part......the salted caramel sauce and filling within the profiteroles, very disappointing 🙄

Lovely wee pub. Friendly staff, Carolyn was on when we were there & she is fab. Scrumptious food, amazing mixed grill & giant gyros. Will be back!

Nice club decent food friendly team

Fantastic service from the team xx thank you

Went in tonight after a stressful day at work and though the place was busy, the atmosphere was amazing. Happy all around, the service was quick and I tried the veg ribs and curly fries on the menu. Went out of my comfort zone and was not disappointed. Service by Yvonne, Liam and another girl (I didn't catch her name) was amazing at 7 pm tonight. Compliments to the chefs and serving staff!

Staff were very friendly and the food was amazing 🤩 great value for money!!

We were surprised with the lack of flavour of our food. I had sausage and mash which was only made palatable by the gravy. My partner had gammon steak which was nice but not noticeably tasty. The table had a blocked salt dish and no sauces, we had to ask for cutlery. This was not our first visit, and prior to this the food has been outstanding.

We were out at birkinshaw estate and came across this restaurant/ pub,first time visit would recommend food was excellent and the service 👌 as it was our first visit everything was explained girl was really helpful all in all a lovely experience,and it has a lively feel good atmosphere relaxing,we will visit again.

Delicious food and good portions!! A great lunch time!!!

Poor experience. Food at best mediocre. Staff fine.

Brilliant value, excellent service and food quality was very good

Alright for a quick bite to eat. Food was actually nice and came out pretty quick! We hadn’t booked and despite place being pretty dead, got placed at a table near the bar. I could see other ones were reserved however the place was 80% empty. Table wasn’t clean and I had to ask for cutlery. When the guy put the tin down there wasn’t enough plus it fell over as he walked away as the little containers can’t take the weight of the Curley but he didn’t bother 🫣 the shouting and sweating from the pub section just through a door at the bar bellowed through as we ate which wasn’t great as we had two hound kids. Prices were really good but it’s order at the table etc which I find annoying.

Just beautiful! Service with a smile and a friendly chat. Great food, lovely place! Five star! Stopped for lunch, great value for money x

Found the pub on TripAdvisor after a visit to Belton House. So glad we did! Beautiful lunch, fresh ingredients and very tasty! Lovely staff and a fabulous spot in the garden in the sunshine. I wish there were more places like this!

A bit miffed that we had to vacate table at 6.30pm no facility to stay on.

Fresh, hot delicious food. Terrific friendly service. Great portions and menu options, with terrific value for money. Would not hesitate to return

We have dine in the windmill on many occasions, and had no problem with the food. And sorry don't know if a different chef on the weekend, but the food was really bad. The chips were over cooked as was the burgers which were cold. Did not want to complain as it was my daughter's birthday. Really disappointed.

An amazing safe place for a bite to eat an a drink, first visit some of since last March and covid tonight, fantastic staff, food great, so friendly, can't wait to get back back soon, first class 👍👍👍

We have been here 3 times during our visit to Redmile. We had an incredible burger our first night here, then a wonderful Sunday roast, and finally a yummy fish and chips this week. Great staff, great food. Worth multiple visits.

Found an all rounder here, Let's goooo!!

Pleasant staff, good food, keeping to all Corona virus rules.

delicious food at affordable prices mixed grill is the best in North Lanarkshire,

Haven't been for ages after small portions the last time . Came back today . Still Awful alot of the food is frozen. Don't waste your money here I won't ever be back Also heard alot is microwaved from a good source

Fab place! Carolyn behind the bar makes your night fabulous 🥂 cocktails on point tonight !!

Rebecca and Francesca are a credit to the company. They are they reason me and my mates come in every single week.

The Windmill Tavern offers a delightful blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. The interior, with its wooden beams and vintage decor, creates a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere. Whether you're at the bar or in a snug corner, you'll feel right at home. Francesca and Rebecca the best staff ever!!! Service: The staff are friendly and attentive, providing excellent service. Their knowledge of the menu and drink selection is impressive, ensuring a top-notch experience. Food and Drink: The menu features a range of pub favorites and contemporary dishes, including vegetarian and vegan options. The craft beers and local ales are standout, with the house special stout and signature beef stew being particularly noteworthy. Entertainment: With live music on weekends, trivia nights, and various themed events, there's always something happening at The Windmill Tavern. The lively events add to the pub's vibrant atmosphere. Value: The Windmill Tavern offers great value for money, with generous portions and regular deals. It's an ideal spot for a casual night out or a special celebration. Overall: The Windmill Tavern is a must-visit for anyone seeking a cozy, enjoyable pub experience. Highly recommended for its ambiance, service, and quality offerings.

Great meal tonight in the Windmill. Classic Mixed Grill superb. Francesca and Rebecca are brilliant, great patter. Hail Hail🍀

Went for a family meal, there was a big groups of us. Food was great, staff were very attentive. Will definitely be back!

Excellent , relaxed lunch’ with friends. Good choices and good value. Really well presented . First class staff. What more do you need? Well done everyone.

We were visiting friends who booked The Windmill for Sunday lunch and it was amazing. The staff were friendly and attentive, the vibe was rustic yet modern and the food was superb. We opted for the roast chicken which was beautifully presented with mashed root vegetables and other garden vegetables served on the side. The roast chicken was cooked and seasoned to perfection. Dessert was an easy option; the elderflower panna cotta. It was served with strawberries, crushed shortbread and strawberry ice cream. The presentation was lovely. The panna cotta was delicious with the right balance of elderflower and smoothness. When visiting friends again we’d certainly visit, it’s well worth a visit.

The Windmill is known for appearing in the TV series Auf Wiedersehen, Pet and like what the lads experienced in the series is like what I experienced when I visited the windmill in early May. Hostile locals and an unfriendly welcome. I walked in and immediately told to leave the bar. An easy mistake to make given on the left side it looks like drinks can be served. So, you get told to leave the bar and walk round to the right side where those not eating can be served drinks. A friendly response would have been appropriate. But no, that is too much to ask at The Windmill. What struck me as odd is how empty the pub is. This was a bank holiday weekend. Why so empty? Those eating were outside. The reason I later discovered is the locals. They don’t like outsiders. One guy there gives you such unwelcome stare with a barking dog that it empties the pub. The atmosphere in there is extremity unfriendly to anyone from outside the village. The local with the dog blames you for his dog barking at you. Trying to make a scene in the public drinking area. Supported by staff and other locals. Word of advice. If you are out driving around Nottinghamshire/Leicestershire and want to stop off for a drink. Give the The Windmill at Redmile a miss. Drive on to the next village.

Arrived for Sunday lunch to be greeted by lovely staff who were very helpful and nothing was to much trouble even though they were very busy Sunday lunch was lovely Definitely recommend a visit

The staff are always friendly and helpful.

Excellent food and great value, the food and the plates were hot and the beer cool. Will definitely be back.😊😊

Lovely chicken and steak from here, one of the servers Rebecca was absolutely brilliant!

Lunch after shopping 🛒 food was nice reasonable prices.

Food generally great. Cauliflower soup disappointing, pork starter and prawns lovely . Roast beef was delicious Very disappointed with the staff attitude from two members of staff and attempt to overcharge by almost £100. Won’t be going back

Nice friendly helpful staff good food clean an good atmosphere

Out of 5 orders we were told that the Mexican burger was unavailable, there was no rice, there were no beef ribs and there was no salads which meant that only 1 meal request could be fulfilled. I question the fact that you had have run out of rice as it not a perishable until cooked and at worst an employee could have gone across the road to the local supermarket and bought rice. We left without eating

Good honest pub food can't fault it

Went very early evening for a one drink experience to see if this was going to be a pub we would use in the future. We entered via the “lounge” entrance, sat at a table with no Reserved indication and was prompted told to go to the public bar as that table was Reserved for early diners??? As three Pensioners, it was not an attitude we particularly welcomed nor found necessary. Sadly the diners had not arrived as we left (were they no-shows we wondered 🤔) . Anyway an experience not to be repeated…..

This place is amazing! Where to start, it’s charming, quirky, warm and welcoming. The staff are so friendly and helpful and the food was excellent. We went as a group of 7 and all our meals were lovely. I was so pleased to find vegan options on the menu and my burger was one of the best I’ve had. I would definitely recommend this fantastic village pub to anyone. The prices are so good for the quality of food you get. Thank you for a brilliant evening.

Lovely meal and price was good too

Me and a pal dropping for a beer

The staff was amazing julie is one off the best nothing we ask for is to much for her to get us always very helpful

There was three of us eating....we had 2 skillets and fish and chips.....we all enjoyed them...

I always liked the windmill but waited ages on desserts and the chicken I had wasn't cooked right and cold

We are extremely fortunate as we live in Redmile and therefore eat in The Windmill regularly because it’s a fantastic pub and restaurant. We go most weeks for Sunday lunch and the food is always excellent - and in particular the roast beef. The menu changes monthly but the ‘favourites’ are always there so nobody can be disappointed. Mark and all the staff in the kitchen prepare and cook all meals with great attention to detail and the outcome is brilliant food and flavours. The bar and serving staff are always welcoming, helpful and friendly so we just keep going back! We honestly feel so lucky to have The Windmill as our village pub!

Was here for a friend birthday. I was delighted to see the chef supplies me with some gluten free nibbles. Nice environment and friendly staff. 👌

Fantastic Saturday evening meal! A lovely atmosphere, friendly attentive staff. Great beers on draft (wherry went down rather well). And the food was delicious. I highly recommend you visit.

Once again we recently had a fabulous meal at The Windmill Inn, and the food was delicious and freshly prepared as usual. We have a few pubs which we visit for food, and The Windmill is by far our favourite - the best in the area in our opinion. Mark and his brigade can be seen preparing your food, and they aim for high standards - the good news is that they consistently succeed. Keep up the good work! We'll be back!

First visit to the Windmill and we will be back for sure. Couldn't fault a single thing. From the staff and the prompt and courteous service to the wonderful food. All in all, a perfect date night.

Excellent 👌 always good food .and great service ...

Reasonable meal for a reasonable price. I like that you can order on an app.

The service and friendly staff were excellent.

We've been coming to The Windmill for several years and we have never had a bad experience. We've brought friends and family at different times and all of them are impressed with the quality of food and the staff there. It's not going to ever have a huge selection of food, as everything is cooked from scratch and fresh. The menu however always changes each month and what ever is on the menu, just works so well. I have had to try some food stuff that I had never had previously, but it just works out each time. We will keep coming back to this little gem of a place.

Excellent value for money. Fantastic food and great customer service. Well worth another visit. Would Highly Recommend it.

The staff were absolutely fantastic. I was in with my husband and 3 children 4 year old 5 year old and 9 year old. The staff were absolutely fantastic with the kids. We will defo be back.

Very let down by our Christmas Day meal. The veg was overcooked and the roast potatoes where rock hard but the ribs where perfect. Most of the staff were super friendly,they also had no pigs in blankets.

Fantastic Christmas Dinner for the family today. Brilliant staff, great service and great food. Will be back next year Thankyou from the Gray family

Amazing place to go to nice food cheap u like pub food. Go here

Great events, having attended the last couple of kids events, to say the kids loved them was a understatement, for a small pub, the kids had such a great time defo be booking anything they have on

Great service. Welcoming staff. No chips ( French fries ) !!!!

Great value for money 2 x mains for £11 and fish is not from freezer you can taste the freshness and staff are absolutely lovely and friendly. Definitely going back for more . It was a lunch visit so was nice and quiet

Lunch was very nice, full plate, only small thing was lack of bbq sauce, but will ask for extra on my next visit.

I love the Windmill, friendly staff comfortable and warm with excellent food

The meals here have improved. We had Mac cheese and beef lasagne as part of their two meals for £11. Great value, and tasty food. Shared an Eton mess too.

Food and service was excellent. Toilets not the greatest. Terrific value for money though definitely be back.

I've been many times now + enjoyed every visit, last wk when there with 2 elder friend we decided to get the golden oldies menu, absolutely amazing, we enjoyed every bit, thanx to all staff

First time here tonight a family of 7 and we all really enjoyed our meal. Decent prices too and they do lovely cocktails 🙂 Will defo be back soon

The quality of food is great and not only are the staff polite and helpful the waiting time for food is on point. I’d definitely recommend the windmill to my family and friends whenever they ask if theres a relaxed place and atmosphere to get a good munch!

Allow customers to use more than one discount code at a time. I had £5 off and because we had meals from the 2 for £11 group the cost went up to the full value price of both meals and then the £5 came off. We also had a bottle of wine so the value for the discount was high enough.

The best Sunday roast I’ve ever had out!! The roast beef was Devine! Staff were friendly and helpful, the pub was lovely and had a great atmosphere…..even the toilets were clean and I saw them being checked! The only negative is that we’re here on holiday and live too far away to come here more!

We dine there frequently and have always enjoyed the food,and the staff are always friendly

Visited recently for the first time for lunch with my family and will definitely be back. Food was superb with lovely flavours and great quality ingredients. It has a nice atmosphere also. I ordered the chicken fajitas for my main and also chips as I wasn’t sure there’d be enough but was left stuffed and couldn’t eat it all. When I was there they had a pay £1 for a child which is a great deal especially as it went on till I’m sure 6pm. There is also live music and a quiz on certain nights. Can’t wait to come back.

Had lunch with my partner and her mum and mum's partner . I had nachos the steak both where great would recommend

Lovely atmosphere, friendly, attentive staff and excellent food. A memorably pleasant experience. Recommended.

Food was really nice and the girls behind the bar were lovely

Loved the food and service was excellent too. Great options for veggies. Try to offer something different to the usual vegetarian options. Risotto was best I have ever eaten.

Sunday lunch here today was excellent. Meal was lovely - roast beef was the best I have ever had. Staff are friendly, polite and efficient and the pub and restaurant has a very agreeable ambience. It was full which speaks for itself. Thank you.

Popped in for lunch, reasonable prices and menu, service very good with friendly staff. This is the first time we have been there. Would return again in the future.

A couple of little things let it down from a 5 to a 3 tonight, plenty of parking so we're off to a good start but the front entrance could do with an annual clean. Old style ordering where the serving person only delivers your food but you have to order it and drinks at the bar and pay up front. Electronic scanning wasn't working so paying by Groupon became slightly harder, made worse by the fact you can only redeem one voucher at a time. Couple of things on the menu weren't available but nowadays that's no big deal. The food value was up there with anywhere else. The drinks value not so good and if you want a spirit with lemonade instead of sofa water you not only lose the soda water but pay more for the lemonade in its place. The staff also weren't really familiar with the drinks orders or how to make them but we got there in the end, I think. The food and drinks quality were absolutely fine, my Rump was a bit tough but that's Rump for you. The atmosphere was only let down by the inside temperature, being really hot outside it was boiling inside. Outside sitting area needs some attention too. To finish, this place could easily be so much better for all who visit. I'd go back but not in a hurry.

Lovely atmosphere food was excellent 👌
