Stopped off for a bite to eat...long day walking and sightseeing...my haddock and chips was nice- hubby enjoyed his burger and chips. The atmosphere pleasant- think there was a group celebrating a birthday-also a live singer which he was good, all in all okay.
Lovely pub. Good choice of pints for a normal price. Food is excellent, beyond what I expected. Staff is very friendly.
Avoid the burger. No flavor, comes out completely soaked because the meat didn’t rest. Good beer though. Also, they were out of most of the menu items both times we came in.
Having not been to The Windmill for several years it was lovely to go back for a Sunday lunch. All staff were great and the roast beef was excellent. Nice to have a sensibly sized and tasty Yorkshire pudding rather than a crazy oversized one precariously balanced on top of everything like you seem to get in some places! Desserts (Brownie and Sticky Toffee Pudding) both with ice cream were good and well priced. Decent selection of lagers too.Very much enjoyed.
I hadn't been in The Windmill since it's refurb during the first wave of the pandemic, despite working round the corner we rarely went in. The pints weren't great, and it needed some TLC. I couldn't believe the transformation - the bar being moved to open out the entire place while keeping the cosy atmosphere is a dream achievement. Fuller's beers and main offenders on tap, but an Wilde Child Brewing imperial stout on draft had me questioning if Dry Jan was worth it. Someone is being punchy with the beer choices, and a few rogue guest taps should intrigue the casual boozer. Food wise, I was also doing Veggie Jan, but the kilo of Chicken Wings for £18 also had me questioning life choices. It was quiet for a Sunday afternoon, but staff were friendly and welcoming. The few that were in there were having a good time. Lucky Saint flew down in what I'd now recall as the best pint of it I had all month - they'd done a number with the branding too, everything felt special. This is how you do Dry January, not drinking and the pub don't have to be mutually exclusive, and I really truly hope some pubs take it further.

The Anchor & Hope is one of the worst-kept secrets in London. The conspicuous pub is widely credited as being one of the very first modern gastropubs.
