Everything was great, the service, food, drinks and atmosphere, all in all a really nice meal out.
Enjoyed lunch at The Mill very much. The sea bass dish was excellent. Dessert not particularly special - brownies (on menu) not available so had crumble and creme anglaise which was tasty but rather mushy. Will visit again.
Lovely food but drinks are expensive enjoyed the ambiance and the staff were great will go back again but won’t order drinks, a shame really because it’s all part of the experience.
Nice food and first class service. Word is spreading about this restaurant and people are coming from afar. Go and enjoy before it gets too busy.
We really enjoyed our meal and could not fault the service. Lovely restaurant with a good choice of food. Will definitely be back very soon
Fantastic Sunday lunch yesterday! One of those memorable meals where the food and service were both top quality. Three guests, all ate different meals, all excellent. We’ll be back!
An excellent meal with friends in atmospheric surroundings. An extensive menu of delicious food. Friendly and efficient service. The only thing missing was the avaibility of craft ale.
A superlative plate of food ! A special mention for the cauliflower cheese which was gratine to a t ! Thank you so very much . We will see you soon
We both had the Lunch Menu, 2 courses plus a large glass of the house red and coffees. This was excellent value at under £20 each. The restaurant was about half full at one point, a pleasant hum of conversation. One of the best lunch experiences in a long time in Otley.
Absolutely fabulous. I had never heard of it and would have struggled to find it especially in the dark, thank goodness for sat nav. The food was gorgeous beautifully cooked and presented. The decor was lovely subdued lighting. It's on my to go again list.
The food is fabulous and the staff are friendly and the atmosphere is great thank you we had a great time really enjoyed the evening
Fabulous as always. Food is always excellent and Jake and the team did a great job of looking after us. We can't recommend highly enough.
No problem with last minute booking, usual service with a smile from young enthusiastic staff lead by experienced manager. Haggis starter was superb , no room for pud after main course.
This is a little gem of a bistro which is hidden away! Would recommend as we had a lovely relaxed time with good quality food!
Great service and food. Word is getting around about this new restaurant.Parking or lack of it at lunch time is perhaps the only niggle. Visit and enjoy.
I’m coeliac and was told they are able to adapt most dishes to be gluten free. I had the braised beef and it was delicious. We would definitely return here, it was a lovely restaurant and a great experience.
Great Service, Great Food , Good Menu Choice, and Good Atmosphere Reasonably priced menu, wine good value Happy smiling service Is now on the list of where to go in the Ilkley Otley area Big Plus - San Miguel on draft!
This place has a great atmosphere, it’s super quirky and very welcoming. The staff are absolutely lovely and the food is fantastic. We will definitely be back!
Interesting site well converted mill unit. Good parking and great reception from cheerful staff. Had the Sunday lunch with generous two meat shared plate with crispy potatoes large Yorkshire puddings seasonal greens and good quality hot gravy. Inventive starters and large crumble to finish. Good selection of wines. Enough meat for a significant doggie bag. Pushed the boat out a bit so just short of £50 for the two of us. Second visit and definitely will be coming back.
The food was fantastic - especially the Yorkshire puddings! Great service and a lovely setting - all in all I would highly recommend The Mill.
We called in for lunch. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. The food was excellent and value for money. A hidden gem within a historic mill yard. We will definitely go back.
Great food lots of choices, will definitely go back 😃
Absolutely fabulous the service, the setting and food was first class! This was our first visit but will not be our last. We will definitely recommend this lovely venue Heartfelt thanks
Very nice meal...roast beef and Yorkshire pudding what else can you say about it so just a nice Sunday lunch. Didn’t like where we sat..
Fantastic venue and service. The meal was fabulous and would be a great venue for a party. Will definitely go back - a little gem of a find.
Brilliant first visit. All the boxes ticked, nice welcome,good table,excellent food from an interesting menu and a memorable gin and tonic that started a lovely evening. Will be back for Sunday lunch(the real test for me)...Staff we’re attentive and helpful and listened to my one little request to reduce the air con...I always seem to get the table under the ‘draft’ but that was not a problem and we all enjoyed our time with you. To be befinitely repeated. Ps crumble out of this world. Thankyou. 🥣from Helen
Food and restaurant first class. Beckie and Sadie were really friendly and helpful. We could not ask for better service. The tables were not on top of each other, as was the case in the old restaurant. Very good menu with food to match. We will be back.
Great food and great service. Very nice venue. Would defitinity return in the future. The prawns were the favourite dish for us. Highly recommended to friends and family
Took some American friends for lunch here. They were intrigued where the restaurant was and absolutely loved the history of the building. As usual the friendly atmosphere made the dining experience perfect.
Great food and excellent service. Would definitely recommend to friends. Menu was extremely varied and very well presented. Would most certainly recommend the fish pie. Paul
Food very good but portions a little on the small size. Atmosphere was very poor even for a Thursday evening. May give it one more chance.
LOvely food with specials available. More spacious than previous restaurant where the table were tightly packedin. The staff were cheerful and helpful and the food reasonably priced. A good rage of coffees were available.
Our main (Sunday lunch) was really good. We had a 45 min wait for our pudding and no apology, which marred the experience a little. On balance I would recommend it as the good was good.
Our first visit to The Mill Bar And Bistro, and it won't be our last. Freindly, helpful service, a relaxed atmosphere and delicious food combine to make this a great venue.
Perfect Sunday lunch, had the sharing platter for two. Beautiful surroundings, great service, good value. Have also been on a weekday evening and that was great too. Faultless, will definitely be going back soon!
Lovely English cuisine in an amazing building. Serve was great too. Three course meal for two with wine and drink came to £80.... great value
Very good. Excellent service . The atmosphere was very relaxed and friendly no feeling of being rushed. The interior is rustic and cosy. Would definitely recommend
Really Good food and wonderful staff. Our 2nd meal here and as good as the first time. Thanks Becky for looking after us so well.
Food was fantastic Staff were brilliant It was a Tuesday evening so the restaurant was quiet but that really didn’t matter We will definitely be going back
Excellent service and food (as usual) from Becky and the team. For anyone who loved and misses Korks, this is the place for you. Cannot recommend highly enough.
Booked at table for 7 of us for an evening out and we were not disappointed. As usual, the service was top notch and every single member of staff made us all more than welcome! Keep up the excellent standard. So nice in this day and age for such courteous service! THANK YOU!
Lovely surroundings and ambience. My steak and my husband's burger were both cooked perfectly. The staff were attentive but not overbearing. As with all these places, drinks were expensive. I can highly recommend this lovely restaurant and will definitely be back.
As per usual lovely food, the staff are so friendly and always a warm welcome from the girls. Thank you for a fab lunch will be back again very soon.
We made a booking for 4 people. When we arrived we were pleased to see that in just over 2 months the restaurant has built up a reputation that it rightly deserves. In spite of a group booking (from choir) of over 2 dozen our excellent meal was served without undue delay. Full marks to a dedicated team.
The food was very nice but the service was very slow between starter and main when not not busy and with no apologies for this. No mushroom in steak and mushroom pie.
Four of us went on Saturday evening. Very friendly and efficient service. We all had different items from the menu and throughly enjoyed them together with two very nice bottles of wine. Total cost very reasonable for what we got and overall a very enjoyable evening. We will be back.
Excellent food and service at a reasonable price. Well worth a visit. Staff were very pleasant and the table layout is not as crowded as when it was Buon Apps
Food was very good and the staff Excellent. Well worth a visit. All though it is quite small you get a great atmosphere yet again worth a visit.
Greeting, service and food all excellent. Only problem was a fly infestation which was annoying, but acknowledge that this would be a difficult one to solve given the hot weather at the time. Will certainly not deter me from making this a regular very pleasant restaurant at which to eat.
exelent food , with first class service all round from staff . Our table was booked for 8pm we didn’t mind the short wait to be seated as a good selection of drinks were served with a smile at what we expected to be the busiest time of the evening, an all round enjoyable evening.
