Ah, Mill Hill Hotel – it's one of those classic pubs in Blackburn that you hear mixed things about, but overall, it seems like a decent spot for a casual get-together. From the reviews, the staff really stand out; they're friendly and make everyone feel welcome, which sets a great tone for the evening. The bar's well-stocked with decent pints, and if you're up for some entertainment, there's a pool table and a snooker one that's an absolute bargain at 50p a game. Plus, the place is spotlessly clean, and the beer garden's a real treat, especially with that heated smoking area for when the weather turns. On the flip side, though, the food hasn't impressed everyone – a few mentions of it not being up to scratch, so maybe stick to drinks if you're popping in. Seating's another thing; it can get a bit tight inside, so you might want to plan ahead for peak times. And that sign about live sports? Well, it doesn't always pan out, which is a shame if you're keen on catching a match. All in all, it's got that warm, community vibe going for it, but with a few tweaks, it could be even better. If you're in the area, it's worth a visit for the atmosphere and the friendly chats, just keep expectations realistic on the grub.
