Excellent food and a very convivial experience. Great value.Thank you.
Absolutely amazing. Wonderful staff, delicious food and a fantastic ambience. The Malt Shovel is a definate go to.
Delicious roast, although the red cabbage unexpectedly had really hot chillis in it too which was a bit of a shocker if not expected! (And not really matching a roast... a Thai red curry, yes, but not a roast...) Also there was no stuffing that day - pretty standard item on a roast! That aside, the food was very nice, service excellent as always, friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere. Very much recommended (just read the menu carefully...).
Really nice pub/restaurant staff very friendly and kind. Food was amazing empty plates all round will be visiting again.
Great village pub serving excellent food from a varied menu. Friendly and helpful staff. Recommended
The food was excellent. Staff were polite and friendly. However, our desert’s took an hour to arrive so it was a very long wait

The food was gorgeous (as always). Definitely a good venue for a birthday lunch.
Staff were very friendly. Great food.. Very dog friendly. Lovely quaint pub.
Was a great venue for a family meal. The food was high quality and also generous on portion size. We found the staff there incredibly friendly and would definitely revisit when next in the area.
Lovely meal, although a 45 minute wait for the food. I presume this is expected for freshly made food. I would return
Very good staff, very friendly. Food was fantastic. Big portions
Very friendly and professional staff and delicious food. My in-laws were delighted with the Sunday Roast. Highly recommended!
This is the second time we have used this restaurant to meet up with friends, as we live a distance apart. It was equally good with a warm welcome, good food and all at a fair price. It's the perfect place to go if you are travelling along the M40. I would highly recommend it.
Busy Sunday which we expected but 55 minutes is a bit too long to wait for food. We ordered 2 roasts and when they arrived they were beautifully presented and looked amazing but sadly we're cold. They were returned to the kitchen to be microwaved and were OK then. A shame as it marred our experience
Very welcoming, great food. Will most definitely come back again.
It was perfect, the food was 1st Class and was cooked perfectly.
The only downside is the tight car park which was made worse by cars and vans parked inconsiderately . The staff and food were great.
The pub is quite basic but the traditional pub food is fabulous, very tasty, unpretentious and good value. The beer was excellent too. The pie and chips was exceptional. Even the gravy was excellent.
We had a lovely Sunday lunch at The Malt Shovel
As lovely as always. Always enjoy visiting and eating there.
So welcoming and great food. Will come back again soon.

A Super friendly pub with delicious food. Dog friendly too!
The Malt Shovel always impresses with its cozy atmosphere, unique style (resident cockatoo) and wide selection of drinks. Each time we’ve visited there has been different choices on the menu and always the food is outstanding. Highly recommend. The staff our always friendly and the service is fantastic; staff recently went the extra mile to make a birthday meal a special occasion.
