Miller & Carter The Gate Keeper

Family of five sat down to lunch. We none of us had steaks but the food was well presented, beautifully cooked and very tasty. A credit to the chef. But, Oh dear, the service generally was not good. Took ages for the drinks to arrive (almost as long as the meal). Staff were noisily gossiping at the kitchen entrance and one waitress «bounced» off my chair in her haste to get back to the kitchen — with nary a comment. The cap was when a waiter told my daughter-​in-​law to remove her hat as he strode past the table! She is currently undergoing chemotherapy. Did he return and apologize after being told. NO! Says it all really. The place needs managing. A shame, as the food was really very good indeed.

Great burgers and steak. Not that cheap but acceptable and popular chain. Easy parking outside and you can escape quickly after eating on the M11.
Bar service a little slow and no decent draft beers, lager only on tap. Unless you’re after a blow out don’t bother with a starter.
