    What a lovely Sunday afternoon, greeted by a roaring fire and a warm welcome on a freezing cold day, the Millbank Arms itself is a gorgeous building, beautifully decorated and exceptionally clean ( even the toilets for those who care like i do 😉) our food was delicious, cooked beautifully and arrived quickly on warm plates, there was a good selection of drinks at the bar served in quality glassware which makes a nice change. We will definitely be back!

    The food quality was great but choice was very limited. We went for Sunday lunch and there was venison and 2 beef options including one fish. My group of 8 struggled To meet all requirements. For children beef choice was not appropriate. Would have been good to see chicken or pork as alternatives

    Fantastic staff, amazing food, and beautifully presented. Ideally, we would have liked a more secluded table as we were next to a large table of young loud people (which I guess can't be helped, especially at this time of year), but been just 2 of us and there for my partners birthday it would have been nice to be at a different table. The food was exceptional, though, and would definitely recommend a visit.
