Amazing Sunday lunch, we sat in the bar area as we had a dog with us. A little bit noisy due to families enjoying themselves, but not unbearable. Looking forward to a return visit.

Our son and his partner have raved about the Peppermill for some time and so my wife and I (with another son) decided to try it out. We now understand the attraction...marvellous food with wonderful service. All three of us enjoyed the same excellent experience. Our new favourite eatery 😊.
