    We have been serval times to the malt shovel and have a different experience each time. Today was not great we both had a roast dinner, I had roasted pork belly... It was very fatty there was no crackling and only one piece !! My partners beef was very rare. We ordered two drinks ...one of which was an orange squash and water ... £2-20!!!!!! I mean I can go to a supermarket and buy a bottle of squash for that... Having worked in hospitality for over 30 years I know that squash should not be this expensive that is a ridiculous price!!!when I questioned the waiter about the price of the squash he told me that was the price and that was that!! The restaurant was cold, we weren't asked if everything had been ok. Unfortunately we won't be returning

    A lovely pub, very welcoming, warm and comfortable. Maisie, my little Cockapoo was made very welcome which was so nice. The food was delicious. The only tiny criticism was the noise the children made around the bird’s cage. Their parents were well away so couldn’t hear the screeching. It all died down when their food arrived so not too awful. I would not hesitate to recommend lunch here.

    Two friends meeting for a pub lunch. We enjoyed our meals but our table was located very close to the main entrance door. Every time somebody went in or out, it created an uncomfortable cold draught for the person sitting closest to the door. Perhaps the tables could be rearranged in such a way as to avoid this.

    The staff are lovely and helpful. The food is delicious. Lovely looking pub too. The only disappointment was we have visited twice this month and both times there was certain meal choices unavailable on the menu and this time some beer was unavailable too. I could understand it if we were eating late but both times we had booked for 7pm.
