The Rising Sun - Milland

Service was a little slow to begin with and we had to chase them up to take us to our pre-booked table and then to take our order. We had asked for a quiet table, but I suppose in a pub that;s a difficult thing to find!, Our table location was a little lacking in atmosphere. The starters were excellent- really fresh tasting and the main was tasty but I would have liked more jus to moisten the partridge. A good range of imaginative dishes on the menu. Friendly host- Ben.

food was ok, steak ws over cooked. service was erratic, as young kids and were more interested in eating there supper later in the evening.

We really enjoyed our meal - huge portions which we couldn't finish. A few of us had the wild boar scotch eggs which we all agreed were delicious and cooked to perfection. My son had the ham, eggs and chips as part of the Early Bird meal and he devoured it quickly saying it was the best ham he had tasted. The waiting staff were really friendly and helpful which is always a plus. Only downside was the open fire was creating a lot of smoke which made our eyes water a little and our clothes smell (we were sat in the bar area) so to avoid this in the winter months I recommend you book to go in the restaurant.

Excellent quality food, individually cooked and prepared. Fab steak selection! Definitely worth a visit. Massive garden available for the summer, loads of walking in area

One of my fave local pubs, excellent food if a little over priced, friendly service and warm atmosphere. However on this occasion completely ruined eating experience by the live band, which had it been made clear when I booked that there was a band on I would have chosen to go elsewhere. I was meeting old friends for some food and a catch up and basically we couldn't talk to each other throughout the meal due to the noise. Now I love to go to gigs, recently seen Future Islands at Brixton and shortly Arcade Fire at Wembley but I make a conscious decision to go to see live music and when I book a meal in a pub I expect to be able to make conversation. We had no choice but to settle the bill and move on to continue our evening. Very disappointing.

I made the arrangements for a group of 13 then 11, then 10 elderly people for a Christmas lunch, the changes being due to ill health. There were also changes to our choices of food. Ben at the pub dealt with all of these alterations extremely patiently and courteously. Then the food on the day was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented so I cannot praise both the service and the food enough. HIGHLY recommended!!

The most delicious pub Sunday lunch ever - the pub was packed, every table full with huge groups of people, so I thought we'd be in for quite a wait service-wise, but they did a brilliant job The roast beef was incredible, the sides were delicious (best roast potatoes ever), and there is a very tempting note on the menu saying that if you want seconds of any of the veg etc., to ask - which we did! To start with, we had a sharing plate which was beautifully presented; the beers were good, as was the wine list with a very good choice including some really decent wines by the carafe Really pleased to have found this

Excellent evaining BUT the owner would not accept our vouchers/loyalty points. So, this begs the question. What's the point of collecting the points if they are not acknowledged or have I missed something?

Great menu, varied with some old favourites and more fancy options. I had a goats cheese, walnut and fig salad which was beautiful and my dad had ‘the best ham, egg & chips’ in years’

One of the best pubs in the area. The food is excellent and good value for money. A warm welcome by well trained staff. Thank you.

The Sunday menu was excellent. Service was good even though the place was full. We live in the neighbourhood and have not been there for at least 3 years as previously the service was simply awful (although the food is consistanly good ) Our faith has been restored so we will definitely go back.

As always the food was superb and better than anywhere else in the area

The staff were good. Food good, but it took along time to arrive considering it wasn't a full house , Will try again sometime soon to see if it was a blip..

Lovely place to go for a Sunday lunch in the wintery weather. So cosy inside. Food wasn't as good as the previous weekend we'd been, but it was very busy. Definitely recommend a visit.

Food was good, hot and plenty of it - pity one of the six meals was served late though. Service was attentive even though the restaurant was very busy.

Always a good meal when eating here. Always fresh and great quality and staff are always friendly and polite. The bar area is also dog friendly

Great atmosphere. Hard working cheerful staff. Good menu choices. Had a real buzz about it. Food was pretty good but I have had better burgers.

Good food in friendly atmosphere. Made to feel welcome, although initial service slow. Would definitely return for lunch. Car parking could be improved - had to park down the road

Lovely meal with very helpful staff - no real complaints about the pub and food - but unusually the place was empty but for the four off us.

Excellent across the board! From the food to the waiting staff. Could not fault them at all. Will deffinetly be coming back to this place!

Very busy and service painfully slow. 40 minute wait for main course. Food good quality and plenty of it. Place seemed to be full of rather loud polo louts. Excellent live music from Rehab Blues.

Unfortunately we were slightly disappointed. Starters were forgotten and steaks weren't cooked to order- asked for rare and medium rare and received one medium rare and a medium. Didn't check back till the very end of the meal so couldn't make them aware of my over cooked steak. Offered free puddings however neither of us have a sweet tooth. Nothing was altered on the bill as an apology for the mistakes. However we would come back as come quite a bit and know that this was probably because they were understaffed on a busy night.
