Lovely location, wonderful restaurant. The restaurant itself was very clean, very helpful and lovely staff, Fast serving yet all food home made and was really tasty. We will be coming back again. Family friendly too.

This used to be a lovely pub. We haven't been since last summer but on Thursday 9th May it was our son's birthday so we all decided to go out for drinks and a meal. The Red Shoot was our choice. We (6 of us) arrived there. No warm welcome, dirty glasses and the table that we sat at was... More

Fabulous pub, fabulous beer festival yet again! Never ceases to amaze me how Jude and her intrepid staff cope with three beery days, yet still smile and run a full menu.

The first time I had food there, I had bangers and mash with onion gravy; the bangers were charred and dry, the mash was lumpy and poorly seasoned... More
