Cons:
"When we eventually got to order our food they realised that we hadn't been given the right menu."

"We arrived and even though a group of staff were near the serving hatch we felt ignored."
"We tried this new Miller and Carter with some friends for a special occasion last weekend and were not disappointed. However, the staff were very poor and disinterested."
"The food took a long time and it wasn’t great unfortunately."
"Service very slow. Waited quite a long time before even ordering drinks."
"Service was long even when only about 10 customers. Portions sizes small for the price."
"We waited an hour and a half for food to be served with no warning or apology from staff and it was a Thursday evening so not a busy night."
Food Quality and Variety
Pros:
"Our food was cooked to perfection with Ellie T offering recommendations to our order."
"Each cut was cooked to perfection, with a beautiful sear on the outside and a juicy, tender center."
"Love that they have a dedicated gluten free menu."
"The food came out in good time AND was so fresh, tasty and hot. 5* all round now."
"The food was delicious & our server Reykin was polite, helpful & readily available if needed."
"The food was served quickly and tasted great."
"The steaks were cooked to perfection, the atmosphere was great and even the side foods were great."
"Food was served quickly and tasted great."
Cons:
"The size of portion was unacceptable for the cost. The chips were served in a little bucket but the greaseproof paper stopped the chips from going in."
"The vegan apple pie... had a horrible texture."
"Venue very pleasant, waiting staff very nice and helpful. Bar acceptable. Food was a disappointment. Many items unavailable. Tough steaks, lacking taste, no matter 30 or 50 day aged and food lukewarm."
"Ordered a medium well and came out almost blue."
"The food was poor quality and not worth a fraction of the price."
"The only good thing about the evening was that the staff were great against all odds. However, the food was poor quality and not worth a fraction of the price."
"Service was great even though the young lady was on her third day. Chipotle chicken starter was a bit overcooked as the batter was nearly burnt."
"The food was on point, no complaints about the drinks we ordered too. Our overall experience was really good, the only thing that let M&C down was the front of
house, staff need more training."
Ambiance and Setting
Pros:
"The moment I walked into Miller & Carter, I was greeted by a comfortable and inviting atmosphere."
"The restaurant exuded a warm and welcoming vibe, making it an ideal place to relax and enjoy a great meal."
"The place with good atmosphere, no loud music, very good service."
"This is a nice restaurant. The food area has a very cozy and warm atmosphere."
"It's a shame that they have let the dress code slip as we were surrounded by people in tracksuit bottoms."
"The lighting is so bright it's like sitting in a canteen."
"The area by the toilets was rather grim, and it clearly hadn't been hoovered in a while as the carpet was really gross."
"Loved the look and feel. The table placements were well thought out. The restaurant was busy but our table felt quite private."
Cons:
"We happened to be seated under quite an intense light, which was a bit annoying."
"The lighting is so bright it's like sitting in a canteen."
"It's a shame it's stuck out near the business park and not in the centre of town."
"Tables were left uncleared after guests left, which again just made the place look scruffy and dirty."
"The area by the toilets was rather grim, and it clearly hadn't been hoovered in a while as the carpet was really gross."
"There were a lot of menu items not available, including advising us after ordering and waiting 2 hours for one of the mains."
"The service was unbelievably slow - 3+ hours to get 3 courses on a quiet Sunday evening."
"Really disappointed. Have been in here a few times for dinner with no probs, but recently came in for lunch with a group of 10."
