![Facebook]( "Recensione")
We came for lunch over the weekend after winning a three course meal for two in a Facebook competition. Amazing, I never win anything normally. I just wanted to say thank you for a wonderful lunch. We loved it all. The chicken wings were great. I don't usually order them, too messy, but these were worth it, even though we needed to be tactfully handed more serviettes to clean ourselves up. I did get a picture of himself wearing so much bbq sauce all over his face he probably would have attracted wasps if we'd ventured outside. I'll be framing that one. Probably not recommended for a first date if you want to impress though.
We also had the Mac n Cheese bites which were yum. Crunchy outside, gooey inside. We cleared both plates and then started to feel worried when we realised we had two more courses to go.
Next was the Veggie Fish & Chips with battered halloumi. Blimey that was good, loved the minted peas and the halloumi was so nice and an Indian spiced burger with onion bhaji and raita. Wow. We made a good stab at them, the portions are really generous, both were gorgeous. I preferred the thick cut chips that came with his halloumi and he liked the shoestring fries with my burger, so there was quite a lot of plate swopping, but in the relaxed atmosphere that was okay.
We were stuffed. This was on the hottest day of the year so far.... but we are strong and knew it would be rude not to have desert, so we shared one. Red Velvet Cheesecake because it came with strawberry ripple ice cream and ice cream seemed like a good idea. It arrived looking so lovely with two spoons. We were sure we wouldn't mange more than a bite and of course cleaned the plate.
Thank you Malt Shovel we had such a great time, you were so welcoming and friendly and we will definitely be back. We're looking forward to trying out the full new menu when you launch it having tried the specials.
We will definitely have those chicken wings again - and I'll be bringing a pack of wet wipes. Thanks for being such a lovely companion Thomas Miller. x

The Malt Shovel has new owners and they've improved the place no end. It was always an OK food pub, but they've really improved the menu.
A few pub classics, plus some more adventurous stuff.
Very dog friendly.
Good place for a beer with five real ales plus craft and the usual mass produced stuff.
The online ordering system works really well and the staff are very happy for you to order in the traditional manner if you prefer.
Great staff and a very friendly atmosphere.
A little gem just off the high street. Great Vibe, great food. Pukka chef cooked Sunday roast - no microwave stuff here! Apple crumble and custard to follow Mmmm. Nice. We'll be back.
I really enjoyed visiting this pub. Staff were friendly and the food was gorgeous. Lovely and cosy atmosphere too. I recommend ! But it is a little more pricey than normal (my meal was £11)
This new team at The Malt Shovel really went out of their way to make us feel at home. We are a family with twin 7 year olds, who loved the activities to keep them busy while enjoyed the tasty food and really nice interiors. Relaxing with a good dollop of fun thrown in. I'm making it my Beeston regular.
We celebrated our child's 1st birthday here and it was brilliant! All the staff were very helpful, the food was great and we all felt very welcomed. It is now officially my favourite pub in Beeston. Thank you Kim and team for all your help!
Decent Sunday dinner. Good value for money. Bit of old man's pub. Parking for about 5 cars. Menu also had some nice tapas and typical pub dishes.
Really enjoy the malt shovel as a local ,for me and the staff are amazing especially Kim as she runs the pub very professionally , I was offered a special which was a fishfinger in ciabatta bread with chips which was really nice and very reasonably priced too , A really nice local pub but I would recommend to anybody passing bye , definitely a must visit pub in Beeston that Kim will welcome you like you are Royals .
Fantastic local friendly pub , staff all absolutely great
