The Gomshall Mill Reviews Summary

Food Quality

Pros:

• "The food was tasty and well presented."
• "the food is incredible - sunday roast cooked to perfection!"
• "The food is excellent and the food mouthwatering."
• "Food was superb too."
• "The food was fantastic (one of the best roasts I've ever had), and they had a very good COVID policy in place to make sure everything was clean and the customers are safe."
• "The food was excellent. The menu covered a wide range and was very well presented."
• "The food was fantastic, a lot of typical pub food along with other cuisine, and made to a really good standard."

Cons:

• "Had roast beef today. It was OK, but potatoes too salty and the beef was not as pink as I would have liked and the red cabbage was rather glutinous."
• "Portion sizes for food too small."
• "However the salad that replaced the chip portion was just some leaves."
• "The crispy bang bank cauli was better, although equally void of any meaningful 'firecracker sauce'."
• "Unfortunately this was slightly marred by a shortage of some foods; no thin fries, no roast potatos, no garlic bread so alternatives were requested."
• "The only tiny improvement point I could make is that the potatoes and cauliflower could have taken a few minutes more in the oven."
• "Some of the meals the portions were borderline mean, for example the sea bass one of our table had was a small piece of fish with 4 boiled potatoes under it."

Service

Pros:

• "Attentive and friendly young staff."
• "Very polite, efficient service."
• "The staff were lovely, the service was extremely attentive."
• "The staff were great, really attentive and friendly."
• "Service from the waitress we had was amazing and friendly."
• "The service was friendly, attentive and efficient."
• "The staff were perfect hosts chilled, friendly and smiley couldn't have been any better."

Cons:

• "After waiting 26min to get drinks to the table, I would say strongly avoid. Worst staff ever, harassment with covid restrictions to maximum!"
• "Just had lunch at Gomshall Mill, 2 adults and 2 kids. Lovely setting and first impression was great however, despite ordering our food within 5 min arriving we waited very long time for our starters and in fact after our starters cleared we probably waited 45 min also for our mains."
• "Once we receive our bill I asked for card machine and waitress brought it over, our bill came less than £85, and waitress just hold the card machine which I tap my phone to pay not thinking much of it. Came home to find out I was charged over £125."
• "I payed £10 for a drink, left the pub for less than five minutes, leaving the drink with a friend. When I came back, the drink had been taken, and when I asked at the bar, they said they had gotten rid of it. Waste of £10, really poor."
• "I told the guy who I believe might even be a manager and he informed me he was going to the kitchen to find out what it was... He went off without apologizing or offering money off the meal."
• "The staff need to tasted the beers they are serving so they can tell the difference between line cleaner and beer."
• "The staff were not that friendly, they somehow wanted to get rid of us as soon as we enter the door."
