New menu

Book your table         

There’s something new on the menu this autumn, and it’s worth popping in for. Brand new comfort food dishes have joined the line-up, each one a proper plateful.

Fancy something a bit special? Try our Grilled fillet of seabass & garlic prawns, with sautéed potatoes, buttered greens and parsley cream. Or go cosy with our Slow braised minted lamb Henry, all bubble & squeak, honey glazed root veg and gravy. Looking for something lighter? Our Nourish bowl has you covered, packed with rice, edamame beans, broccoli, avocado and pink pickled onions in a honey & soy dressing.

And then there’s Sunday. Our Sunday Carvery comes with all the trimmings, your choice of roast beef or Chef’s roast of the day with seasonal vegetables, potatoes, bottomless gravy and unlimited Yorkshire puddings, 18.45.

Great value never goes out of fashion either. Our Cosy menu is back, two courses for 16.95 or three for 19.95, served Monday to Friday from 2pm, and our Pub Lunch menu is served Monday to Friday, 12 noon to 5pm, for something lighter.

Good food, good company, good prices. Grab a table and come and try it for yourself.

Went for a family dinner in the Easter holidays family of 4. The pub is welcoming and friendly as well as the staff, which served us straight away. The food itself was lovely and fresh and definitely recommend, good portions to. Choose from outside sitting to indoor sitting as there is plenty of tables to choose from. Definitely will be back

My husband and I held our Silver Wedding Anniversary celebration on Friday 21March in the Function Room. The standard and quality of the food was second to none and the portions were beyond generous. Every single person commented on the flavour, presentation and service. The bar staff were helpful, friendly and extremely professional and provided a consistently high standard of service all evening. We would highly recommend The Millgate for any special event in their Function room
