Average pub really, average in the pejorative sense. Average food, average beer, average prices, average decor, average garden. There are better pubs in Acton.

They've definitely smartened it a bit since its Mr Q days, but it's still a very average place. Interesting layout in a triangle between two streets: smaller front bar and a long passageway through into a more roomy back bar with pool tables etc., plus a beer garden. I didn't notice any real ale. Didn't have food; it smelt very nice though.

Hey, where'd my review go?
Was in here last Sunday to watch the rugby - the place has had a lick of paint and looks semi-respectable, service was fine (friendly even) and the menu wasn't bad at all.
|
Not a bad pub at all - food is great - beers reasonable and good garden bar!
4 pool tables and plenty room - could speed up bar service mind you
|
Don't even think of getting served here unless you've been a regular for years - the staff simply ignore you. Horrible, horrible, horrible pub.
|
not the best pub in the world absolutly gorgus food though the burgers are out of this world.
bar staff extremely rude and think everybody fancies them which is off putting.
dont go there for a quiet drink its full of rowdy ausralians
|
this pub is terrible staff are slow and rude and after 9 at the weekend the drunken (mostly australian) customers are thugs with a mission to start a fight with everyone and anyone
|
Really hate this pub. Used to be good but now just full of foul mouthed australians.

I don't like the patrons of this pub as they get very rowdy and make a lot of noise when they leave. As its on a quiet residential road (mill hill road)it makes it difficult for local residence to have a good night sleep; often waking up to lots of rubbish outside their doorsteps left by the pub's patrons.
I wish the patrons would be more respectful of the residence...

The Mill Hill is a wonderful pub. It gets incredibly busy some nights, especially if there is football or rugby on, but you rarely get any bother. The bar staff are first rate - they've got a keen eye for the queue order and are, without exception, very friendly.
Early afternoon entertainment can be had by sitting at the windows and watching the teachers at the school opposite don their riot gear and drag naughty kids back into school. Not so much of that since the building site went up, but it was always good value to see some little toerag getting a bollocking in public for being a toerag.
The hours have been extended, but the garden has to close at 9pm as a condition of late opening at the weekend. A real shame, this, yuppies are really ruining the good drinking spots in Acton by complaining about the pubs nearby. It'll all be superpubs away from the residential streets before long, the death knell for community drinking.

i never really took to this place. feeling of edge to it, not very good beer, just a bit of a waste of time.
|
Cheap Beer, Friendly Service,
My Rating 6/10.
|
Not too bad but can get very rowdy.
|
Great pub for a pool night out, except the one twat one night who, despite him not being on the table for over half an hour, wouldnt let me and my mate play on the L-Shaped table, insisted it was winner stays on, fair enough, so I 7-balled him, funny he didnt wanna play me after that, but not gonna let one dickhead spoil it, cracking pool venue !!!!!
|
As said before, a good stop on the way to the Redback. In summer the beer garden was a good spot to rest and kick back a few before heading to where the real action lies. Thanks to my mates on Gunnersbury Lane who introduced this aussie chick to the game.

A large and disparate pub. Could easily be the kind of place people travel to (probably en route to the Redback, which no doubt provides much of the weekend custom). I love the way it changes as you walk through the main bar, through the corridor into the pool area. A whole new pub opens up! Good garden too.
Quite busy, quite grotty, cool for pool.
Food is standard fayre. Drink bottles if you can.

The Mill Hill is probably one of the last pubs in Acton I would recommend. If you want cheap beer there is cheaper, if you want good food there is way better, if you want somewhere that is clean there is totally way cleaner. It is probably (as they say in beer land) the last pub I would recommend to anyone wanting to visit the drinking spots of Acton.

The Mill Hill has to be one of the cheapest pubs i have come accross in London. Fantastic staff and good food.
