About This Pub
Ah, the Jolly Millers – it's one of those pubs that just warms your cockles the moment you step inside. From what I've gathered from folks' chats online, it's undergone a fabulous makeover, turning what was once a bit rundown into a bright, inviting space that's perfect for unwinding with mates over a well-poured pint. The staff really stand out; they're dead helpful and make you feel like a regular from the get-go, whether you're sorting out a big bash like a birthday party or just nipping in for a casual drink. That beer garden is an absolute highlight, especially on a sunny day, and it's got all the makings for a great night with its affordable drinks, sports on the telly, and even plans for live music to liven things up. On the downside, though, the opening times can look a bit confusing from the info floating about, so you might want to give them a ring first to avoid turning up to a closed door. And, if you're after a quiet spot, it could feel a touch packed during events, but that's often the sign of a popular local gem. All in all, it's a solid choice for us pub enthusiasts looking for that genuine, homely feel without any fuss – I'd say it's well worth a visit if you're in the area.

Came down working from blackburn. Nipped in for 1 ended up having a few. Brilliant put great barman and top beer garden. Great pub all round 👏
Arranged husbands 50th birthday party here. From start to finish could not of been more helpful with decorating and arranging set areas for it. Great atmosphere and staff and lovely local pub!!!
Not been in this pub in 30 years. Was friendly fantastic service. Staff happy to chat whilst serving. Clean will be going back there soon. Beer was good to.
Esther, Pete and all the staff at Jolly Millers were a dream! We definitely chose the right venue for our relaxed fiesta themed wedding party.
We had a wedding party of 52 people and the garden and gazebo set up here was absolutely perfect. There was space to set up the tables, cater a full BBQ and space to dance the night away. Esther and Pete were so accommodating and open to our plans. They allowed us have exclusive use of the pub for 4 hours and even after this all of the locals respected our space, although by the end of the night the whole pub was dancing together and joining in 🎉🥰 everyone keeps saying to us what a great pub it was, how friendly the staff were and how reasonable the prices were. In this day and age that says a lot. We will continue to visit Jolly Millers as one of our locals and wouldn't hesitate to use them for any event big/small again. Thanks so much (newlyweds Mr and Mrs Monasterio ❤️🎉)
Lovely quiet little place in the afternoon. Very friendly staff made us feel very welcome. They are very dog friendly and we were even greeted by Peggy the resident dog on entry. Lovely beer garden with plenty of seating. Will definitely be back to this one.
