We visited the Saxon Mill for lunch to see what all the fuss was about. On arrival I struggled to find the restaurant on the first go,
I did not realise it was such a large place. With two bars which I would guess is a great atmosphere in the summer with the stunning surroundings, and the restaurant upstairs. We were greeted with smiles which is not always the case as we took our kids (3) this usually scares staff at this type of eatery.
I was quite impressed with the menu as there were a few dishes I thought to be very brave, I ordered the Head chef's recommended starter which was very good. The meals were a very high standard as to were the staff. The wine list was one of the best I have seen with a lot of care taken to match the wine to the food they serve.
There’s a lot of attention to detail here which all adds to the experience. So I rate this Highly recommended.
Final thought. Book a window seat for the full experience.

About Lillet
Wine is something of a passion for us and Lillet is a blend of wines selected for the most prestigious winegrowing area in the world and fruit liqueurs.
Lillet results from the marriage of refined ingredients combined slowly and skilfully.
There is no recipe for making Lillet. It’s an art that has followed the same principle for five generations: quality at all stages of production.

On a sunny day the Saxon Mill is a wonderful location with the building itself beautifully presented and the views across the Avon. My wife and I visited with colleagues from the US and they loved the location. We ate in the restaurant after without a reservation on a Sunday evening, although that was mostly because no one answered the telephone on numerous times I had tried calling earlier in the day. On retrospect that should have been the clue to try somewhere else.
When we arrived the staff at the restaurant was not sure that they could accomodate our party (6 people) but found space. As it turned out there were very few diners that evening and I do not understand why finding us space was apparently a problem. Following that the service, whilst friendly, was incredibly slow, particularly given the low number of customers in the restaurant. At one stage I had to go and find someone to find out what had happened to our drinks order after having already chased it up once. I like a relaxed pace to my meal but this is one of the few times I have ever had to chase up an order, and having to do it twice for the same order is unforgiveable.
The food itself was quite reasonable. I thought that my main course, while very nicely presented, could have been hotter but the flavours were good and the portion acceptable. The dessert was quite excellent. I confess that I did not see the final bill as one of my colleagues intercepted it but the prices on the menu were reasonable.
Overall I was quite disappointed because I am sure they can do better.
Amazing food and great service will visit again.
Myself and family visit here quite a lot, the food is very good but its not just about the food the whole experience is great.
