The Silk Mill — Restaurant in Nuneaton and Bedworth

This is a fairly cheap but extremely spacious place with a decent amount to do. There is infamously a television (or 5, mostly) everywhere you look; and there are many comfortable booths that you can slip into on a quiet day. Bartenders are generally nice also.

Having had grub here a few times before, I can definitively say it's often not of decent quality. We have had to send food back before and you can very easily tell that everything here is using a microwave - often cold on the sides and molten in the middle. However, the variety of drinks is somewhat redeeming.

There are 2 pool tables - both of... below average quality (spills on the cloth and lean too) and it's Ben known for there to be not enough cues and there is rarely chalk available. Darts board is of average quality however. [Side note, the pool table photo was from a few months ago when the cloth was recently replaced.)

Edit: Downgraded to 2 stars. The floor was sticky on multiple occasions recently. And tables don't seem to be properly cleaned. Booths are in a...

Very impressive place and a big improvement from when it was a Wetherspoons (I didn't visit when it was the Bierkeller). Loads of comfy seating with more tellies than Dixon's (I'm showing my age there), plus one giant telly dominating the centre of the bar. Pool tables and dart boards for the athletes among us and very clean toilets (well, they were on a quietish Friday afternoon, I'll reserve judgment until I see them in the early hours on a weekend). And the prices! I had a pint of Carlsberg for just £2.10. The value for money carries over to the food menu too. There's a great selection with ample choice for vegetarians and vegans (I will have to ask why the fries are not vegan though, maybe cooked in beef dripping like the Northern chip shops of my youth?). Double, triple or quadruple burgers with chips and a pint for between seven and ten quid (if memory serves). It's not long opened so the staff are still a little green but, overall, a massively welcome addition to Nuneaton...

Awful, booked a table for the football as we have in the past. Table was next to far post in front of the bar. Couldn't see the big telly nor any other. Given permission by bar staff to move tables, benefitting the two other tables that couldn't see. Told before kick off that we had to vacate our table as Ciara the deputy manager wanted to sit there. We moved reluctantly as surely the experience of the customer always comes first. Ciara arrived and said our table was too near hers. My husband said we don't need to move it as we stand to watch football anyway. She reacted like a child, said she wasn't putting up with this, and had us both removed by the bouncers. Everyone around us was shocked and disgusted. We left without any fuss. Embarrassed for the young woman to be honest, showing off in front of her friends. We have now cancelled our upcoming bookings for 6 people. The young lady concerned should not be working in hospitality, and...
