The Old Windmill

I always love every visit to The Old Windmill. The staff and the atmosphere are so relaxing. It's always a joy. I often bring people who have never been before and they really love it's history and the ambience. Cheese night must also be mentioned as a brilliant experience. It's such a great little pub!

What an experience! The Old Windmill public house oozes atmosphere and it is a MUST if you are near Coventry city centre. A clue that this pub is very old starts with the outside appearance. Once you are inside the pub's age becomes more obvious. Quaint rooms . . . not one of them identical, ancient oak beams, blackened by the passage of time. One of the vertical beams is a tree around which the pub was built. Get this, The Old Windmill was built in 1451, thirty four years before the end of the Plantagenet era. Interestingly, there is a priests hole tucked into the side of one of the old fireplaces. Now, down to other things. There is a great selection of beers, wine and spirits. Grub is on-hand too. This public house is a must. Do try it, there is parking close by, you will definitely not be disappointed!

This is a really lovely pub and the staff are really friendly. I brought friends who were visiting from NY as they love history and old architecture and they absolutely loved the atmosphere and little nooks to lose yourself in for a chat with friends. The food and drinks available were really lovely too, we arrived quite late in the evening and after the pork pies had been finished but managed to get the last cornish pasty :) The selection of ales went down really well with the boys while we enjoyed some prosecco! I don't visit here often but it's always fun to stop in and I really enjoyed introducing my friends to this pub.

Great pub! Class and style. Good beer. Great food - pork pies, cheese board, cooked meats! Not always easy to find a place to stand or sit when it's busy. Update: Cheese night (once a month on Wednesdays?) Is superb

What a pub!!!!!! I've had two spells of living in Coventry and I'm gutted that I didn't find this place either time! So full of character with little rooms and proper fires. The staff were lovely. Great beer and the meat/cheese platter most impressive. Highly recommended.
