Charming country inn in Warwick

The Saxon Mill Warwick is a charming country inn and restaurant in Warwick, England, offering a successful blend of historic charm and modern hospitality. Located in a picturesque setting on the River Avon, it stands out for its idyllic location and the lovingly restored architecture of a former mill building. The restaurant combines traditional British elements with a touch of contemporary style, creating an inviting atmosphere suitable for both casual meals and special occasions.

Traditional British cuisine with Mediterranean influences

Culinary-wise, the Saxon Mill places great emphasis on fresh, seasonal ingredients and offers a diverse menu that combines British classics with Mediterranean influences. Particularly popular is the "Spit-Roasted Chicken with Lemon & Garlic Confit," a juicy chicken enhanced with an aromatic lemon-garlic flavor and boasting a crispy skin. Also noteworthy is the "Slow Cooked Pork Belly with Seared Scallops," a sophisticated combination of tender pork belly and perfectly seared scallops that creates a harmonious contrast between land and sea. For those who prefer something lighter, the "Spiralised Carrot Salad" offers a fresh and crunchy option that surprises with creative flavors.

Cozy restaurant by the River Avon

The drink menu is equally impressive, featuring a carefully selected collection of wines, beers, and cocktails. The selection of local ales and lagers pairs perfectly with the hearty dishes, while the cocktails – often enhanced with seasonal ingredients – provide a modern touch. Especially on warm days, the terrace overlooking the river invites guests to enjoy the surroundings with a cold drink, rounding off the experience.

Inviting atmosphere for special occasions

Only been here a few times. Food (snacking rather than three course) was not bad and seemed to be consistently reasonable across the visits. Nice atmosphere. Prices seemed reasonable.

We just went to the Saxon Mill on New Years Day with our large party to enjoy the Christmas festive menu. I would highly recommend visiting, the place is beautiful, food delicious and the staff super friendly, not least our lovely waitress Ella!

We came to the saxon mill and ordered from the christmas menu and it was absolutely delicious. It was really good value for money and the attention to detail with the food just made it that much better! We were served by Ella who was really helpful with us especially as we were a group of 10. I would definitely recommend this as a must visit!

On balance this is a really nice place, nice ambience, great service. Strangely enough the food is quite average. I found that my meal wasn't seasoned enough and others in my group were a bit disappointed with their steaks.

We had a wonderful time here on Boxing day. The place was packed out but the people who worked there were calm throughout and so friendly and helpful. The food was delicious. Definitely will eat here again.

We were seated by a very draughty old door, so i had to put my jacket back on, later i had to move over to other side of the table away from the cold. The lady opposite was also cold, as the door kept opening for people traipsing through regularly to the restaurant. We had a very expensive and disappointing Christmas Day lunch. We were told to get there at 11 30 am, which we rushed and adhered to. When we arrived in room by fire on ground floor we were the only people in the room. We thought that at least a few more people would be arriving at the very early time of 11 30 am, BUT NO. As there were only 2 of us it was very miserable, and the drinks, breads, and starters were served very quickly and we had eaten these by 11 45 ish. I was so upset i went to find the planner Kate, who was in the restaurant which was full of people. She said she would come and see our table. All she could keep saying was that the kitchen had to serve people in a strict order. So we could not get our point over, then another lady whom was another manager came to see us, explained again. I said no way were we going to have our main course on our own..She said we could wait for the other people to arrive, which was really not till 12 noon onwards for a few guests to arrive. So we duly waited for the other guests to eat their starters and then had our main courses, me Turkey, bullet hard brussels, roast potatoes awful, turkey ok. My husband had the rack of lamb which was very small with hardly any vegetables. I then asked the nice waitress if perhaps he could have a few roast potatoes, which she kindly said of course. I then had Christmas pudding and custard which was the smallest pudding i have ever had in a restaurant. My husband fared better as he had the cheeseboard, which was ok. As we had paid £15 extra for drinks at start and end, i thought i was getting a remarkable wine in a proper wine glass, but it came in a small flute, as you get for Proseco etc. Again my husband did better as he had a pint of Peroni. At end of meal i had a Mohito, which i was looking forward to, i started to drink it, but it affected my stomach badly, so left most of it. We then left as all i wanted was to get home to a warm house and take some antacids for my very painful stomach. There were some nice touches , with a Christmas card, and 2 chocs each in little boxes. The waitresses were very efficient and coped well. I forgot my phone in rush to get out so early, so have no pics to show. Sue and Jim Guerra

Beautiful location, good food but too little specialisation in a type of food spoil the atmosphere because people take different things which smell different and have different timeline. I suggest not to try catering to every taste but to do only what you are best at
