The Cafe Old Mill Ltd — Restaurant in Birmingham

Moved to the area and was going the cafe as my local spot to have a Irish which is the best by far and my mate has the veggie . Prices changed not by too much so you don't mind but the atmosphere has changed alot not as happy as it used to be feel like the girls on the front arent allowed to talk to customers no more, which isnt nice when you walk in as you feel like your a problem asking for there services .Best time for food is Monday and Tuesday when the older lady is on ,her food is top notch unfortunately the veggie has now changed no burger and the Irish you get one sausage and not always get a potato cake the white pudding is very nice but cannot fault the lady who cooks on these days . Through the week it's a mis match of luck if you get what you order if it's warm and of a good quality you hear the staff moaning they don't want to be there and it's just not as friendly as before dont bother expecting toast it will be cold or not come with the meal .Sandwiches are great here too had a couple of ploughman's and you can double up . The place turns into a bar at 2pm which I don't think people know too much about due to lack of publicity but summer last year here was great . A pint for 3.50 how good is that need more beer on tap as only got Carling no bitters . The bared early in the week wow what a stunner (can i have her number?) but she's just great makes everyone feel welcome gets you doing the quiz on the telly all the locals get involved or it's the crossword with one of the locals She really does a brilliant job throughout the week always funny and smiling and you can just relax knowing there's no trouble which you can find in the pubs in the area . Really looks after everyone and does you a sandwich if your peckish and has a listening ear for your problems let's you bring your dogs to the outside sitting area and they really looked after by her making sure they're fed and water is always given . Which is nice to see Different atmosphere here weekend think it's open later also but the other barmaid is pleasant too she has the music on makes you feel welcome and there's burgers chips or a Sunday dinner available alot of the weekly locals aren't there weekend seems more staff and friends and younger people but everyone seems to get on needs a new hand dryer in the men's but for where it's situated its a real good place for a pint best part about it you can get a pint with your breakfast too as it's served from morning .Local to shops and Northfield train station and 45 and 47 bus stops well definitely be coming to the bar more...

Went for a big wheel today was greeted by 2 lady's which I now believe were mom and daughter. we were told there was going to be a wait which we didn't mind so we sat down the mother brought drinks over to us and also played with the children and made us feel very welcome . Within seconds there was screaming coming from the kitchen. the lady went out the back as she looked embarrassed within seconds the man is screaming again the poor lady was in tears another customer had been concerned for her safety and went to check she came out and you could tell she'd been crying she apologised again for the man another customer asked her to sit with them.as they were concerned for her. By this time our food came to us but I just couldn't eat it down to the atmosphere due to this man the poor lady came out apologising to ever customer I just really hope she's OK as the place seemed so family orientated until the man started screaming at her the way he did not a place I want my grandchild coming to and a few other customers left saying he was very rude and concerned for the lady I really hope she's OK as when we walked in they were so welcoming but due to either the chef or driver today you've...

It was the most horrendous breakfast and service we've ever had. Although the woman I spoke to on the phone was pleasant enough it doesn't excuse the fact that it took over 2 hours from ordering before it turned up at the door, even though they said it had left for delivery 40 minutes prior to it's actual arrival.

The food; it turned up in a plastic bag in a box on the back seat of a car. Not even in an insulated food carrier, hence the food boxes being squashed and dented and food leaking out from being tossed around in the box. There were things wrong with the order itself: there was two lots of bread and butter missing and one of the two teas ordered was a coffee. After being shook about in a car for 40-odd minutes, I'm sure you can imagine how cold it was. Tin foil isn't magic, it only keeps things warm for so long it didn't even stop any leaking juices.

This was supposed to be a surprise breakfast from my lovely grandma, but unfortunately it didn't turn out to be a good surprise at all. Disappointing all round, will never be ordering here again. And we don't recommend it to anyone else either. Would give no stars if it...
