    Hi Gary, The Old Mill seems to be run of the mill, not the best, but not the worst. The overall serving seemed to be on the small side, so using smaller plates might be the trick here . Beans looked runny, the sausage didn't do itself any favours looks-wise, but looks can be deceiving, so a bonus. Thought the tea looked a bit transparent when you began to pour, but that redeemed itself too. Nice part of the world, great review as always.

    As for the food i will stick with you at 7-1/2 for that one as when you make an effort to put a good quality sausage like pork and leek on the menu, then deep fry it, i think that's a shame.

    Hi Gary the cafe/Bistro looked good. I use to have a licenced cafe/ restaurant. We use to have queues on a Sunday morning going out the door down the road for our all English breakfast. It was cheap and well cooked by yours truly sometimes my partner and friend but not very often as she didn't really like doing a lot! Your plate looked a bit empty but egg looked just right as I like it. Bacon and sausage looked good and tomato and seperate beans which is a must. Hate black pudding and tinned tomatoes but you had fresh which is great. I didn't use to do black pudding but I did mushroom which I know is not your thing. My breakfasts were a lot cheaper than that about £3.50/£4.

    I really felt you were very accurate in the 7.5 and so honest as always too. It was above average (the sausage was great) but not substantial enough in terms of portion size. However if they could get a new beans supplier and give their customers two sausages it could be one to remember. As always a great review.

    £8.95 is a decent price considering the location but not a big enough portion. Tea looked nice.
    I think that the black pudding is overcooked , I like it soft in the middle retaining a bit of the red colour. Sausage looked lovely but the beans don't look like Heinz or Branston. All could have been improved with a fried slice.
    For me it's a 7 out of 10. Another fair review and a worthy addition to this series.

    Personally, I think the cafe is taking a massive advantage of its location as most of their trade is probably from foreign visitors.

    Gary, here in the USA, at least where I live, it's very difficult to find British Back Bacon. Another thing I've noticed and like about your videos (as well as some other British YTers) is that the restaurants and cafes you review all seem to do an outstanding job of getting the poached eggs perfectly done. (I wish I could say the same about my own 🙂).
    Here in the northeastern US, when one asks for potatoes w/breakfast, they are generally fried but not deep fried like those in your videos. I also have never been able to find Cumberland sausages like those you show.
    Another hunger inducing chapter! Well done, as always. Thank you.

    Small but quality ingredients by the look of it. Loving the look of the sausage...and black pudding for the win; looks like they have a good supplier. Beans are a meh for me, unless a feature :) Nice to see some decent toast and butter. Buttie time! I think two eggs would have been sweet, but the fact that it had good colur makes up. Not bad value, but not great either. I suppose you take your choice on quality or quantity. I agree on a 7.5 :) Just from the visuals and your comments. Nice one Gary.

    I think the Full English Breakfast should be just that. This one was pretty small for a full one. The sausage looked very tasty, but it doesn't compare to those London cafe plates although of course most times mushrooms are added. The Cotswolds are generally catering for a different customer, so bearing that in mind the price was actually not bad at all. Great content, and i see your channel is growing, i hope it continues.

    My main bugbear with many modern breakfasts is the common addition of the hash brown. They're an absolute travesty perpetuated by people too lazy to do bubble. The Americanisation of British culture is getting worse, and the hash brown is an appalling example of that. A hash brown should automatically disqualify a breakfast from being a full English. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿💪

    Sorry Gary, but I would of returned that pot of beans for an un-chipped one, it could of been chipped when putting your beans in, and chipped teeth cost a lot to repair! If I was hungry, I would of been dissapointed with the meal you got, why do these places only give half a tomato? I like breakfasts in twos, so 2 sausages and two eggs, would of been value for money then, and of course your enemy the mushroom/s. Would prefer some fried bread and hash browns rather than toast, but that's me! The Cotswold's is a lovely place to visit, but can't say I would go to that particular establishment! What you said at the end of the vid about other items on the menu being tried, that might change my mind! Another class vid and nearly 6000 already, keep it up sir!

      Something I meant to mention that I've never seen before and thought was really inventive! When you buttered the toast, you pushed the knife into the slice to clean the knife of butter, the times I've put the buttered knife down on the side of the plate to avoid the butter going everywhere, because it never all goes on the toast or bread, and then drops on the floor. Why I've never thought of doing what you did, beggars belief, lol! Inspired sir!🙃

    That plate was quite empty, mate! Even though all the produce were very high quality, I would have expected a bit more. It's not enough to fill up a mouse with a hangover. On a bit more serious note, Gary, it's not always about quantity but quality. And in Chipping Norton you will find very high quality produce, it's locally sourced and usually done to perfection. The problem is that since Jeremy Clarkson started farming, it's almost impossible to find a place to park or eat when his farm shop or outdoors restaurant are open. It's a beautiful place and the produce is high quality! Another fantastic review, mate! Please keep up the fabulous work you and the cameraman/ camerawoman is doing. We'll stay in touch, mate! 👌❤️

      I don't like mushrooms so I get them changed for something else but I do love white pudding, not a lot of places do it unfortunately!
