What User likes about The Milk Maid:
This little spot is a gem! A large assortment of cheeses and condiments and some gift wear give lots to look at. The food we had - one of us the daily quiche, and the other a stacked sandwich, was excellent! Fresh tasty and served nicely. Server was so nice. Started us off with a big bottle of chilled water. All around nice occasion. View all feedback. What User doesn't like about The Milk Maid:
A group of us went for lunch this week on a cold, blustery day. We learned that hot lunches are a thing of the past...too bad! The cold plates looked good but not enticing enough to encourage us to stay. The cheese selection is modest but good. The Chateau de Bourgogne cheese is very well priced here. It is a WONDERFUL cheese...well worth a trip here. View all feedback.

This restaurant inside the north building of Park Royal Shopping Centre has recently changed name to Sushi Jyo.
