Anyone who has ever had a gelato in Italy will know that the Italians can definately make ice cream, well they manage to reproduce the stuff here in a small shop opposite Waitrose in the Spires in Barnet.

They make their own ice cream and have so many different flavours to chose from. It can get quite busy in here, especially if there are large groups. You don't get a very good signal inside but most of the time they let you connect to wifi & charge your phone if you need to. They also have a big projector on the wall where they project the TV (usually E4) and sometimes football games. This is just the place to go to if you're looking to warm up with a hot chocolate or coffee or cool down with a smoothie or milkshake. Or simply to just enjoy a lovely dessert. I think they make protein drinks too.

Date of Visit: 02.10.09 "Pure Treasure - Great Chef with…read moregreat passion" Review: You first enter and feel that it is both casual and reasonably lively and Family friendly. I know Mill Hill and this is not my usual spot for breakfast or lunch so I was intrigued by Mill & Brew. The head chef was previously trained by Jamie Oliver and his passion for food and caring about the ingredients really shines through. Quick tip to the owner "don't let this one go". A great menu catering for all including a good vegetarian and vegan options with lots to select but my only criticism on the menu is that the Breakfast and Lunch menus are very similar and only a couple of new dishes added for lunch. Also although there are cakes and other dessert items no specific in house desserts and I would love to see this moving forward. All portion sizes are large so feel free to order more single dishes and share so you can get a chance to really sample the fantastic menu selection. I will be going again and would highly recommend this establishment to all. Parking: Ample station parking and also street metered parking also which although is limited to 1.5hours at around £2 you can go back and get another ticket. Decor & Lighting: A rustic cafe feel but really well done so you just feel comfortable at a light casual place to meet for a coffee or a full meal. Heating and Cooling: Noted they have AC and during our time the AC was off but temperature was perfect, not hot or cold. Ambience & Acoustics: A great feel but acoustics wise there were a few people around and it did sometimes get hard to have a conversation but being hard walls and high ceilings this would be an acoustic issue anyway. Service: Excellent service by all members of staff as each would come and ask if all was ok so very attentive. DB Level: 77.3 dB We had the following: Coconut crush - My friend had this and suffice to say it must have been to her taste as nothing was left. Berry burst - Textured and fresh and I am no fan of blueberry but loved this combination. I would recommend this for all to try. Beetroot smash (Poached beetroot smashed with organic yoghurt, topped with pomegranate, crushed walnuts & pistachios finished with fresh apple on sourdough) - A take on the usual avocado on toast but using an english ingredient. The bread is crispy with the beetroot both light and sweet. All very well presented and I for one not being a fan of beetroot was a bit worried about this one but I was pleasantly surprised and I am glad we had selected this from the menu and is a must to try. English breakfast (Two fried eggs, smoked streaky bacon, award-winning sausage, homemade baked beans, a baked tomato, Portobello mushroom, potato & onion rosti and toast) - Again a well presented dish. All the ingredients used and specially selected. The beans being fresh and not the canned variety with a great light taste. You also get a little salad with light fresh dressing. Along with the best crispy bacon I have had which was really crunchy. The award winning sausage had a light spice and perfectly cooked and not too meaty. The tomatoes and mushrooms along with the perfect egg and the most amazing hash brown all work in perfect balance. M&B banana pancakes (Triple-stacked fluffy pancakes! Choose between our classic smoked bacon and maple syrup or our caramelised bananas with sweetened cream cheese & toasted hazelnuts) - Sweet and fluffy but be aware this is a large portion which we shared and still could not finish the entire dish. Real care and attention taken to the dish which would not go a miss in most fine dining establishments. Albeit they would probably charge more and give a much smaller portion. Halloumi rings - A nice touch and variation on onion rings. A nice light and crispy batter and works well as a side dish also served with a home made dip which works well. Fries/Chips (Hand cut, twice cooked, crispy chips) - Great chunky chips which are rustic with the skin left on. Again served with a great home made dip. A treat for all. Chicken Schnitzel Burger (Free range crispy chicken breast fillet in a brioche bun with baby gem lettuce, homemade coleslaw & mature cheddar cheese, topped with siracha mayo) - A nice homely made item, crispy, crunchy and nice taste to the batter coating. Really fresh and worth every penny. Conclusion: The slight issue we found is that the Wi-Fi needs improvement as there is poor signal and no real cover. But food wise and atmosphere wise there was no complaints at all other than wanting maybe more items for Lunch and having their own home made dessert menu. All the food is fresh and all ingredients sourced with care and attention. I would be happy to have the same food in the top city hotel and I do think this chef is going places so why not try out where he started his own vision before you have to pay more for the privilege in years to come. Great food and good value.

We went back to Middeys just to make sure that the food, atmosphere, service, and hospitality was…read moregenuine, and it was absolutely fantastic. I'm that person that will order the same thing because I know what to expect but not this time. I ordered the "Middeys Brunch" with a Mimosa and American coffee. The food and service did not disappoint. If I am ever afforded the opportunity to return to Cockfosters, UK or even London in general I will definately make my way to this darling little gem. I would encourage the general masses to decend on this joint and chill for breakfast, lunch, brunch and/or dinner. Thank you Bobby and staff for your amazing welcoming hospitality. Kindest Regards

Promised so much but let down!…read more I attended this new cafe/brasserie with high expectations the decor is done to a high standard and there is a selection of coffees and nice organic expensive items for sale to take away, it has the feel of a nice independent coffee shop in a village. The menu is not too large and offers a good range of favorites like burgers, pastas, breakfasts, salads and sandwiches etc. I opted for the club sandwich presentation again was good, served on a wooden platter with chips in a little bowl. However this unfortunately is where it goes a bit down hill, the food I had and my girlfriends too was distinctly average I even commented that I can make a better club sandwich (and I'm no chef) the chicken was dry, the bacon rubbery, tasteless and cheap. Not what I was really expecting. The price point isn't that high but I feel they are cutting costs with quality. Service as well was not great, maybe because they're new and inexperienced but there were several problems with staff; - First being not great English making ordering more of a trouble than it should be, I heard the table next to me struggling too. -Second mistake, clearing my partners plate away before I had finished. Having come from a service background this is rude and shouldn't happen. -Third, No check back after ordering despite having several members of staff standing around doing nothing, no one asked how my food was so I couldn't inform them it was a bit dry. -and finally, The bill was brought over to me and left at the table without me asking and without the offer of any dessert, coffee, another drink etc. I found this strange as surely they will lose business with this behaviour. I felt slightly rushed, it wasn't like they needed the table it was almost empty. I wouldn't return for food, the coffee and the milkshake were OK and that's about as far as it goes unfortunately.

Ahhhh the GORGEOUS shakes in here! However, sometimes they only have one person working here and…read morethen the queues are out the door. Bearing in mind, I specifically drove there for one, I'm going to stand and wait. Having said that, over 30 minutes one time was a stretch too far one might argue for a basically posh milkshake. As the same with all these places it is expensive for what it is, but they do do the stamp cards that give you a free one every time you have collected the full amount of stamps. Yes I like the shakes, too pricey though and incredibly frustrating when only one person is working.

Probably the worst shakes I ever had! Tasteless, bland & overpriced…read more The only thing worse than the shakes was the appalling service. Clearly the gruff, uninterested & unhelpful lady who served us had more important things to do and places to go. We asked for a simple soft whip ice cream for our young daughter & she refused to serve it to us saying she could only do it with flavours despite us offering to pay for a full priced small shake. Rude, unhelpful & tasteless. As were the shakes! Won't be going back!

The breakfast menu is simple but the quality of the core produce is way better than anything I've tasted nearby - to date. I've also experienced a number of poached egg disasters at restaurants recently, but these guys nailed it. Hallelujah for the soft warm yolky loveliness... The service was great too - young and friendly staff who were happy to serve and help. I didn't get to see the lunch menu so can't comment on this, but I was also intrigued to learn that Masterchef finalist Chris Georgiou uses this place for a gourmet burger night which takes place from Wednesday - Saturday called Gastronomical. I'll be giving that a try for sure.
