“We went here for pancake day & after initially being a little worried we loved it. When we walked in it was a little tatty, a window was missing, patches in ceiling, and a few dirty plates left out on empty tables. We were a little worried that we weren’t going to enjoy ourselves. But our server showed us to the table and the rest of the resultant and bar was beautifully decorated. We had really really amazing service from our server, considering she seemed to be the only person serving everyone at the time. We ordered 3 lots of pancakes and a chip butty. All of the food was absolutely amazing. We were stuffed! The plate of chips was huge, and the bread lovely! The pancakes were SO soft and fluffy, and such good value for money! There was so much food! The Cath Kidston glasses and mugs were so cute too! The kids really enjoyed the decor and we all had a good laugh at the private toilet party. On the way out I spotted a sign about refreshing some areas so I guess that explains the slightly tired looking entrance. Honestly we had a lovely time and can’t wait to come back. Probably the best pancakes we’ve ever had and the server was just so friendly, she’s a real credit to the place!”

“I stopped in here for a quick lunch. The food was delicious, the staff were very friendly and attentive and the atmosphere is chilled. I could easily imagine sitting here with a cocktail for the evening.”

“A beautiful traditional Italian restaurant. A lovely vibe and decor. Staff were very professional and at point. Food was exceptional. Lots of parking in the near vicinity.”

“The Danish was to die for and nice coffee. Inside tables could use bit more lighting though but I strongly advise of visiting.”

“Lovely pub, great place to stop on a walk with the dog. Gluten free options, reasonable prices, and a good selection of food. Staff are always nice and helpful. Please do fries instead of chunky chips!”

“Great local pub. Busy early evening, nice food, good atmosphere. Real fire in the winter. Sunday roasts have mostly been excellent. Very dog friendly so he's happy.”

“Returning after a number of years, and the food did not disappoint the Tournedos Rossini was sublime and the steak & game pie was mouthwatering. The service was excellent together with Beautifully kept Beer. Highly recommended.”

“We visited The Barn one afternoon and had such a lovely experience. I ordered the fillet steak, which was perfectly cooked — tender, full of flavour, and beautifully presented. My partner chose the rolled pork belly, which was crispy on the outside, soft and juicy inside, and absolutely delicious. The atmosphere was calm and welcoming, and since it wasn’t too busy, we could really relax and enjoy our meal. The views from the restaurant are beautiful — a perfect backdrop for an afternoon meal. Overall, great food, friendly service, and a stunning setting. We’ll definitely be visiting again!”

“An amazing and distinctive location. visited this location for a function. The event space is fantastic. There is a lake nearby and lots of open space. Lots of parking for big gatherings. The security personnel and staff were polite.”

“I went for a team lunch with work, around opening time mid-week. The service was quick and friendly, and the food was varied and all delicious! I enjoyed the BBQ Chicken Burger with chips and coleslaw, and there were lots of lunch offers, such as 2 for £18. Also, some nice decor and lots of parking on site. I'll definitely be going back soon!”

“Birthday celebration dinner. Amazing pub. Loved the ambiance, busy with a friendly atmosphere. The food was delicious with great menu choice. I had sea bass, cooked to perfection with lots of veg and hasselback potatoes. Everyone enjoyed their choices. Prawn cocktail was really good. Portion sizes just right. Only one of us disappointed, no steak and ale pie. Service was excellent. All food reasonably priced. We'll definitely visit again. Would strongly recommend going here.”

“Delighted to go the Old Mill for lunch with friends. The welcome was as always warm and friendly. Our waitress was Lois who attended to us so well being friendly and very helpful. She paid do much attention to us and always had a smile on her face. The meal was as usual delicious and well presented. I love the Old Mill for its great menu and friendly atmosphere. Thank you Lois for your help and hospitality”

“As a low carb vegetarian with a gluten intolerance, it’s fabulous to find a restaurant flexible and obliging enough to adjust their offerings to my atypical needs. Whilst hubby tucked in to his ribs with fries, my halloumi was served minus the rice or fries, but with a lovely range of (extra veg). It was so good that I asked if the halloumi I couldn’t manage could be boxed and the very friendly and obliging staff did just that. It’s so refreshing to find this level of service. My only critique is that the decor could be smartened up a little, but that did not detract from our experience.”

“Took my 5 year old and for that age group it's perfect. Farm animals, alpacas, reptiles etc. really good value for money and cheap to get in and the gift shop has lots of affordable bits and bobs for kids. Nice little play park too. Will be going again”

“Lovely Thai food. Was here for Father’s Day. Really like the unrushed atmosphere and we get the chance to look at the closest art work from our seating.”

“3 of us dined lunch time at this lovely pub. A nice warm welcome as soon as we stepped in set the scene for a very enjoyable lunch. A nice chatty atmosphere as the place was busy (always a good sign) but not loud. The food didn't disappoint, my salmon was cooked to perfection and nods of approval from the others said it all. Can't comment on the beer as I, unfortunately, was driving! Thanks to all the staff, thoroughly recommended.”

“This is a wonderful wee pub. Legit had the best ploughman's I've ever had. Staff are all lovely and friendly and the garden is gorgeous. I'd already eaten the cheese and garlic bread before I took the picture.”

“Great variety of produce. Clean and professional. I like shopping here. Give it a try. You might like it too.”

“The new owners have done an amazing job, the refurb is modern and fresh. The food is delicious and the service is friendly. Great atmosphere, we’ll definitely be back!”

“Wonderful evening cruising down the Avon, with a jovial and friendly atmosphere. The food and service were beyond what you would expect from the small but perfect galley. A truly memorable night, will be on board again soon!”

“Outstanding service and Food Ordered Lamb Naga full of fresh Spices and meat, keema nan bread was fresh as they come. Best in the Area fresh and spice consistent 10/10. Ordered take out from Ibis hotel”

“If you want home made, freshly cooked, tasty food in a quaint rural pub then this is the pub for you. Food is amazing, staff are friendly and welcoming and the prices are not bad. It's a must visit.”

“Great little venue. I've been here regularly. Best place to have a cheeky drink in Kenilworth.”

“Beautiful historic pub with great beer. Pub also has a brilliant Latin American restaurant attached. I’ve sampled some of the food on the menu and it’s amazing. Tapas is spot on. Burgers are huge. I’ve stopped here for work and the rooms are nice and simplistic. Whenever I’m in town for work this is my go to stop. The staff and super friendly and welcoming. Also they have the best Guinness in the area and even do a clover when pouring it. (Unheard of these days) sadly I’ve never been on time to try breakfast but smells amazing and I’ve heard good things. Can only imagine it’s as good as the evening food”

“This is an excellent choice if you want good authentic Indian food. We went for a family get together and everyone left so satisfied. We tried so many dishes and all were incredible. Even the meat eaters were ordering more Gobi 68 and Gobi Manchurian the cauliflower was so tasty! The staff were really attentive too - a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon.”

“Ordered takeaway from them last night, what a feast!! Food was delicious, especially lamb shish, tender and flavoursome, very generous portions, comes with loads of sides (salad, rice, plus bulgur rice, Turkish bread and sauces, plus some courgette soup as well - this must’ve been a complimentary addition I think). I put an order via Justeat, but then called the restaurant to inform them of my order, and they made sure it was exactly as I wanted. Thank you so much chefs! Thoroughly recommend, next time I come to rugby I will be ordering again. PS. some reviews say that they are expensive, but the portions are huge, you get a lot for one course, so you could easily get away by ordering 1 for 2 people, if your appetite is average :). My 1.5 dishes would definitely fill up at least 3 people (by 1.5 portion I mean one hot course and one salad)”

“We recently tried Exotica after its re opening, the food is amazing all of us were really impressed and will order again. Definitely recommend”

“Great little spot for an all day breakfast. Typical spot that Britain is in need of. Support the local businesses and less of the support for the big American owned chains.”

“Lovely pub with a traditional feel and atmosphere. Friendly staff, decent prices and several ales on proper draught tap. 2 permanent ones and 5 guest ones. Lovely place to go for a few pints”

“Called in on a jolly boys outing from Northampton a lovely old world charm good selection of ales and a friendly service will be back again when we return to Rugby 8”
