The Old Mill Coffee House & Bistro

About The Old Mill Coffee House & Bistro

Tucked into Chipping Norton, this is the kind of place locals send you to — and the food is genuinely home made, from moussaka and lasagne to a proper English breakfast and fish and chips that arrive in generous portions. Breakfast lands within minutes of ordering, which matters when a toddler has already decided they're starving. The garden, dotted with olive trees, is the real find: room for little ones to potter about while you finish your coffee, plus high chairs, a kids' menu, buggy access and free parking. Inside is cosy rather than trendy, calm on a weekday, busier at weekends — worth ringing ahead for lunch. Prices are refreshingly reasonable for the Cotswolds, with no discretionary service charge sneaked onto the bill. Gluten-free and vegan options too, and the cakes get raved about.
