The service was good & the food that I had ( lamb shanks) was very nice. My only complaint was that the pub was very cold, (November). There was no heating on, just a very small open fire & we had to sit in our coats for the duration of the meal. No heating in the toilets either. I didn't think that the desserts were very good value for money. I had an ice cream bomb which was the equivalent of 1 scoop of ice cream covered with cocoa powder. It was served in a ramekin dish , very small. It cost £7.50. If it had been on a plate with some garnish, maybe some fruit & cream it would have been better value. I might go back on a nice sunny day but definitely not in the winter.

First time eating in the dusty miller, been wanting to try the roast for a few months now. Ordered two lamb roast but unfortunately wasn’t any, we wasn’t told in arrival only when ordering. So u ordered the pork belly which thought tasted like gammon and wasn’t bork belly at all, even tho I still enjoyed it was just disappointed which false advertisement.

Delicious food and friendly welcome and service. Unfortunately the venue was very quiet and after 30 minutes of arriving we were the only customers so the ambience was a little weird for a Saturday evening. We still enjoyed the food and evening catching up with friends. The lamb shank was delicious.

The food was really good but the service let the experience down. We waited over half an hour to be given our menus. To be fair, it was Sunday lunchtime but we watched other tables that joined the same time as us order and get their food before we had been given our menus. Although I would go back, because the food was good, I wouldn't go on a Sunday lunchtime again.

Food was lovely and service was good, only down side was not taking empty glasses when bringing drinks, not letting us know what desserts they were out of and no English mustard to go with roast beef.
