Exactly what you'd expect from a Miller & Carter. No ale at all so a quick Guinness had to do. Not the biggest fan of these places but this one is in a lovely setting with great outdoor seating overlooking the reservoir. Worth a visit just for that!

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Miller & Carter Sutton Park
Substantial pub / restaurant in a prime position with a large veranda overlooking Powell's Pool reservoir. It happened to be the first evening open after a period of closure for refurbishment, and not having visited before I'm not sure what's changed, but the various seating / dining areas are surprisingly uncluttered and have a smart appearance. I was slightly unlucky in that the real ale (albeit Doom Bar, which I understand will generally be available from one of three handpumps) hadn't settled in time, so went for the Adnams Southwold from among the bottled options.

This chain is rather awful. This branch looks good from the outside and is in a lovely location, but the experience is rubbish. The single bar has low level lighting which makes it feel gloomy rather than cosy, and I opens out onto a very pleasant veranda overlooking the reservoir. A lovely location, but when we asked if we could sit somewhere to enjoy the view we were told by the supercilious person at the ‘reception’ desk that we should have booked. That was despite other people coming later who also hadn’t booked but were still treated with a bit more respect. And dress code? A snarky comment about one of our ladies’ ‘trainers’, yet letting in men in shorts and flip flops. A code for dress, but no attempt to control unruly noisy children. And the low grade meat, the long wait for food, the strange deep-fried thing that looked extra-terrestrial but turned out to be a deep-fried mutated onionoid drenched in grease. And a wooden bowl of soggy lettuce as a complimentary starter? What’s that all about? Beer – Franciscan Well Chieftain IPA and Doombar - that was drastically over-priced, over-chilled and rather dull. The other customers, apart from the shorts-and-flipflops clad men, were groups of noisy party-goers with no respect for others around them. And balloons, inflated single-use plastic tat (‘21!’) that provides grown adults with a fraction of a second’s amusement before either going into landfill or floating skywards to trap unwary birds. At least JDW doesn’t pretend to be what it’s not and offers better value for money. Not worth the grind and I don’t want to get back into this rut.
