It's always a pleasant afternoon thing to do their excellent dinner +theatre. Food has changed somewhat whereas it was a buffet selection it is now a formal sit down restaurant type of affair. I'll miss the epic beef pie but the coq au vin I had was very nice and the salmon better than the previous evenings high end restaurants offering. Play was excellent and as always very well produced and staged given the small area.

Everybody should experience The Mill at least once. It is very indulgent, food for the body and soul (literally!).
The car park is small, but parking attendants help to get as many cars as possible. And it’s free.
You start downstairs in the bar with all the twinkly lights and view of the mill wheel which transports you back in time while you sip on a drink (or two).
Then you are taken upstairs for an evening meal. You get your dedicated table and a server who is there to make your evening comfortable. The atmosphere in the restaurant is very pleasant, there is no rush and our waitress was fantastic, very polite and friendly. Bread, butter and olives were already waiting at the table. You get to choose a main meal and dessert from the set menu (5 choices each). I had a salmon followed by vanilla pana cotta and coffee/tea in the end. That’s all included in the price of your ticket. The food arrived really quickly, it tasted delicious and we had plenty of time to chat and enjoy the atmosphere.
After the meal you proceed to the theatre, which is cozy and no matter where you sit, you will be able to see every little detail on that stage. The show was a tribute to Lionel Richie and Diana Ross. We loved it, even if the drums were way too loud, the singers were excellent, including the backing singers who danced all the way through it. Audience was engaged, singing and dancing.
It was a fabulous evening out and we have already bought tickets for our next show. We cannot wait!

Visited with my wife to see "Death in Pemberley" along with a meal.
This was my first visit and I have to say the experience was fantastic. The service in both the bar and restaurant was excellent, and the quality of the food was tip-top to match. The play followed, which was produced to an extremely high standard. Loved every moment. Excellent!

We went to see the show ‘It will be alright on the night’ a ray Cooney production. This was the first time we had been since the sit down menu change at the theatre. Very impressed. Lovely food, comfy seats and table service. Staff were brilliant and we had plenty of time to eat before the show. The show was outstanding, very funny and we all had a wonderful evening.
We also went at Christmas to see White Christmas and again the show was outstanding and perfect for this time of year. 100 recommend a visit to this wonderful theatre.

I was lucky enough to be a guest at a Significant Birthday party which was held at The Mill. About 50 of us for drinks in the downstairs bar followed by a sit-down dinner upstairs in the wonderfully beamed room. Absolutely delicious food - but I particularly wanted to praise the totally charming young staff. So professional, so efficient. They helped to make the evening a huge success, and I cannot recommend the Mill highly enough as a venue.

Top Hat was simply outstanding. Better than the West end! Amazing cast and such fun.

Love the relaxed atmosphere at this little theatre. Excellent non-fussy buffet, with polite and attentive young waiting staff. First rate acting in the Whodunnit play. Great to be able to park on site and have a bar for drinks before/after too. An excellent 'treat' outing with friends/family.
