Harden's survey result
Summary
“Well prepared food (excellent Cornish fish) and friendly service” win enthusiastic (if limited) feedback in our annual diners’ poll for this prettily located small (24 covers) bistro, in a converted sixteenth-century mill. It helps that it’s very reasonably priced.
Summary
A quaint B&B in a sixteenth-century former corn mill near Padstow, whose attractions include a terrace with a water wheel and a humidor packed with hand-rolled Cuban cigars. “The team at the Old Mill have always gone above and beyond” to make diners feel welcome, and the locally sourced cooking is “exceptional” too – “chef Adam always comes out to say hello to each table”.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
