A popular Warwick pub is set to reopen next month with a "new look and ultra-stylish feel" following a "significant investment".

The Coventry Road pub will reopen on March 14, having been shut since the start of March for the refurbishment.

A new menu will also be revealed with "a variety of pub classics with a modern twist".

The "elegant menu" will include an assortment of seasonal specials which will change daily. Paired with an extensive wine list and hand-crafted cocktails, a visit to the Saxon Mill "promises to be an exciting social dining and drinking experience".

Leading the change is head chef, Laura Wheeldon, who has been with the pub for a year.

On reopening, the "all new" Saxon Mill will provide a premium feel after undergoing a stylish overhaul.

General manager, Vicky Hollier, said: "There are no words to describe the excitement and joy the entire team feels for The Saxon Mill amazing makeover.

"After working here for 13 years, it's lovely to see the refreshed and stylish space.

"We can't wait to welcome our guests back, serving them our brilliant dishes, delicious cocktails, refreshing beers and the very best wines.

"We're certain visitors will enjoy the new look as much as we do."

The new décor extends to the bar area which has undergone a transformation that includes feature wallpaper inspired by nature and new timber flooring decorated with soft rugs.

This is complemented by new pendant lighting, local artwork and new upholstered seating.

All changes have been made to "tastefully expand the pub's social space, without compromising on its original charm and character".

The fireplace has been revamped with new surrounding cosy soft stools.

"The new and improved décor has left no stone unturned, taking inspiration from the UK's most glamorous dining and drinking hotspots," Premium Country Pubs said.

Guests will be able to indulge in the 'Wine and Dine Experience', comprising three courses featuring scallops, steak and the devilish chocolate bomb dessert and a luxury bottle of wine priced at £100 for two people.

In addition, roast dinners at the Saxon Mill are not to be missed – on Sundays, diners can enjoy a hearty roast with all the trimmings.

There are also plenty of delectable deserts to choose from, including the Callebaut Chocolate Crème Brulee and the Mini Dessert & Cocktail option, where you can select your favourite from the miniature desserts on offer and pair it with a classic after-dinner cocktail.

The lunch menu includes dishes under 600 calories, hand stretched stone baked pizzas and freshly prepared sandwiches.

The extensive cocktail menu includes classics with a twist, such as an Amaretto Sour, everyone's favourite Martinis and a selection of Spritz.
