Silk Mill Ale And Cider House

This charming pub offers a lovely atmosphere and delicious food at a reasonable price. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend it if you're in the Derby city center.

Popped in for drinks and really nice atmosphere. We sat in the garden and it was so relaxing. Drinks were a bit pricey but they are everywhere now to be fair. Staff were attentive and friendly.

This restaurant is a fantastic spot for drinks or a meal, but the portion sizes are quite large for me as I don't eat much. The food is delicious, but sometimes it feels a bit excessive, with many dishes containing cheese and no options for lighter bites. Voir le carte

In Derby with work and been to a number of places. The Essex Arms was flooded (Oct 23 storm) so was advised its sister pub The Old Silk Mill. What another great place, good food friendly and very helpfull staff. On the would go again list. Traditional pub done with a good updated cosy theme.

4 of us visited on a sunday, 3 had sunday dinner, one had a wrap. Awesome food, could not fault it at all and the service was really good. Slight wait for the food but the waiter kept us updated and it wasnt a long wait really, we enjoyed a couple of drinks. Would definitely recommend a visit.

Four longtime friends reunited for a meal and catch-up at the Old Silk Mill. The staff, Chloe and Claire, were fantastic and took excellent care of us. The food was exceptional and the service top-notch, making for a wonderful evening. The beers were perfectly kept and always satisfied. Bonus points for being dog-friendly. Voir le carte

Table had crumbs on not wiped down from previous customer. Ordered baguette with bacon chicken and brie. Chicken over cooked and dry as was bacon. Hardly any brie. Baguette very hard. No butter. Couldn't even eat the bread. Salad ok if you like limp lettuce. Coleslaw was actually nice. Chips tasted like they were cooked in old oil. Menu sounds fancy but sadly didn't live up to expectations.

Stumbled across this pub by accident as the nearby pub I enjoyed a beer in wasn't serving food. I ordered a pint and took a quick look at the menu, it seemed to have some interesting dishes on it. I ordered the pie. I thought it was A pie, but the barman advised it was a selection if pies! What the hell! Go for it! One beef, one chicken one veg. All outstanding! Great chips too. If I'm in Derby again I'm coming here! Nice atmosphere too, in a traditional (ish) boozer.

It was great food. There was one stocky bald guy who was a really good waiter. He was working his socks off. Then other staff were not so good. Chatting with friends at the bar while our large party needed drinks. A couple of the kitchen staff wandering about with a poor attitude, looking like they didn't want to be there. Should be happy to work there. It's a brilliant pub and they have a nice atmosphere to work in. I have high standards when I go for a meal. It's a rare treat for people. I don't want to see staff acting like they're doing you a favour by being there. On a side note you can see food staff on their phones touching work surfaces when the kitchen doors open. I would say that's... Voir le carte
