"We had an excellent meal at the Stonemill, although with a few features that may be worthy of comment. We were welcomed and shown to our table, and after about half an hour a complimentary portion of breaded whitebait and tartare sauce arrived off limits, sadly, to my wife, who is coeliac, but gratefully scoffed by me lovely big juicy fish and good sauce. After another 10 minutes, and having seen people who had arrived after us placing their orders (always annoying, that , we got a bit impatient and went in search of some staff. Our order was taken, and after another 15 minutes more complimentary things arrived broad bean and caramelised onion purée, which married the beany bitterness and sweet oniony caramel very nicely.

Unfortunately (for the restaurant, not us tips could not be added to the amount on the card machine, but could only be left as cash, so sadly in these cashless, contactless times they had to go without. So an all round 5 stars for food, a solid 3 for service, given that they made amends for their slowness with lots of extra goodies."
