The Mill of The Black Monks

You'll find this place tucked away on Grange Lane, in a building that actually used to be a mill – and they've kept that sense of history without making it feel precious. It's the kind of spot where locals keep coming back because the food's reliable, the staff aren't pretentious, and you're not paying daft prices for decent plates. The reviews speak for themselves: nearly 830 of them and a solid 4.6 rating, which means people trust it. Whether you're after a weeknight dinner or something a bit more considered, The Mill works. It's got that sweet spot between feeling like somewhere you'd take your mum and somewhere you'd actually want to go yourself.
