The Mill Wheel Bar and Restaurant has the right touch of tradition and modernity combined to create a dining space that is unique and memorable. This Derby restaurant lives up to its name and you can see a huge 24 ft working mill rotating when you enter the bar area, adding an exciting touch of authenticity to the atmosphere. Accommodation is comfortable with rooms fitted with all modern conveniences and there's a full breakfast awaiting you the following morning. In the dining room, the ambience is relaxed and down to earth and the food is tantalising, with local ingredients featuring largely in the menu.

The menu brings a tasty wood pigeon salad with crispy parsnip, red pepper and lentils followed by juniper and rosemary marinated wild venison, bacon potato rosti, sauté Savoy cabbage, black currant butter and red wine jus. End with a strawberry pavlova with raspberry sauce or maybe the selection of cheese with biscuits. Real ales, beers and wines comprise the excellent drinks list.
