The Boot and Shoe

Fantastic place to spend time with family and friends. Great food, nice staff , spacious space. Enjoyed few drinks , food and nice time with friends participating in quiz … Ample parking spaces.

Had a great experience here whilst on holiday visiting a friend. I chose to come here with my five year old as I saw they had a playground. We sat on a nicely shaded bench in the large outdoor area whilst she ran off some steam. I tried a craft lager from their large drinks selection and it was perfectly refreshing in the heat we had that day. We went inside once we had finished our drinks and chose a table in the bright and spacious seating area in-between the bar and the garden. It was early afternoon and the garden was starting to get busy due to the weather but inside was still nicely calm and cool which is exactly how we like it. We were served by a competent and polite member of staff and we felt looked after. The food came out promptly despite the kitchen being busy which was greatly appreciated. I ordered the cheese steak sandwich which was lovely(I only added mayo to make it a bit more saucy, personal preference). The kids sausages are tasty and the portions are a good size. My little one enjoyed her meal and the free kids ice cream afterwards was a welcome treat! I also had a glass of Sauvignon Blanc which went down well. Overall the customer service was great, the garden and kids area is lovely and the whole atmosphere was inviting. Also worth a mention is how clean everything was. We can't wait to visit again!

I cannot praise the service, food or anything and higher. Had a lovely night Alex was great, sat playing card games most of the night, wasn't rushed and made to feel pushed out. Overall a great night. Plus food was amazing too.

Excellent all round food was hot and friendly staff deffently go again

Have driven past a good few times doing Uni drop offs so decided to call in for lunch. Lovely feel to interior, good choice on menu, we opted for the soup and sandwich choice, plenty of filling on the sandwich and the cup of soup was tasty and enough. Staff really friendly and accommodating, we will definitely be back to sample the Sunday roast.

Visiting the second time. The service was impeccable. Absolutely brilliant food and great ambience.

Great pizza. Renovations have brought lots of light into the place and an interesting new décor. Child friendly with a play area for the kids. Good selection of traditional British ales. Quite area for dining and also Sky Sports for the footy.

Had lunch here today with my teenager and her dad. The beer battered fish with chips and garden peas with a side of bread and butter, and curry sauce was delicious, hot, and a substantial portion. Their Sunday roasts with quinoa were also enjoyed. Service was efficient and friendly. Atmosphere warm and welcoming. As the daughter recently started university, I think we will certainly be returning. Only draw back was that lunch was so substantial that we had no room for desert.

First time I have been here for years and what a change light and airy very welcoming pleasant staff the menu isn't vast, but big enough choice I had the fish and chips with the northern upgrade ( bread and butter) the meal was well presented and tasted good we followed this with the apple crumble and custard you can't beat custard which was spot on
Would I return to the the Boot and shoe the answer is definitely.

Had the Festive menu for Christmas. The food was excellent. Big portions and great quality. Good value for money too. Highly recommend.

Really good food in a perfectly reasonable pub. This isn’t the cosiest place, but it’s very nice. Excellent staff too.

Lovely welcome, staff very friendly. We had the roast dinner it was lovely , we couldnt manage a sweet the roast was huge. Thankyou so much.

The best vegan options I've seen on any menu. I had the choice of four things and chose the banana blossom in batter with chips which was amazing. I've never tried it before, it had the texture of fish and I don't think many people would realise it wasn't cod. I was too full for a pudding but couldn't resist the vegan cheesecake with sorbet. Again it was amazing. It was light and so tasty. It was all very reasonably priced; it was great not paying over the odds for vegan food which was tasty and so well presented. I'll have to return to try all the other options.

Excellent service and food, very quiet due to it being mid afternoon but didn't detract from the overall experience. Server was very friendly and attentive. Would not hesitate from recommending, and we will definitely be back.

Fantastic took my daughter for her 30th birthday with her twin baby boys and the food was lovely and the staff couldn't do enough for us

A pub restaurant which has recently undergone refurbishment. Outside it looks impressive with a kiosk (see photo) but inside even more so. The menus and drinks available are good and at reasonable prices, and all the staff were well trained and courteous.
A vast improvement over the old Boot and Shoe, and well worth a visit, especially ones who knew it before as the contrast will impress.

John is an excellent host, as always, friendly and accommodating. The food and beer are great too!

Sunday roast is well and truly a Sunday roast with side dishes of pigs in blankets cauliflower cheese and extra Yorkshire puds to boot. In all my years of entertaining and meals in high places I have yet to encounter better value service and courtesy in what is such a difficult industry in providing consistent high standards . Pass this cosy retreat and you will not know what you have missed out on.

Had a lovely meal here about a week or so ago - food was great and out two waiters Maya and Hugh who were very helpful and welcoming - definitely recommend

Really nice pub just a short drive from the city centre
Plenty of outside seating for the summer months
