Super nice pub with amazing good quality food at very reasonable prices. I had a special off the board, a T bone steak with garlic mash and it was superb. My chunky Spam fritter starter was also very nice, sent me straight back to my childhood and were super nice.

Could not rate this place any higher - the staff are amazing, the food is great. They did a brilliant job of hosting my family and I for a memorial meal and went above and beyond when my mother-in-laws phone was left!
We'll definitely be back!

I would recommend paying a visit to this unassuming pub, the staff are all very friendly and attentive. The food is excellent, has a good menu and great tasting. We will be returning next time we are in the area. If you live locally and haven't been to eat the you are missing out.

Beautifully cooked food; genuinely home cooked to an extremely high standard. Without doubt the best pub meal I've ever had, and better than the majority of posh restaurants I've been to, all at extremely reasonable prices. Desserts are to die for. Staff were friendly and attentive. Nothing was too much trouble, real ale was perfect. I'll be back on a regular basis from now on!

Food was good. Massive portions which some would enjoy but myself found a little overwhelming and I have a pretty good appetite. My first drink of cola was flat and not very cold, however my second was very fizzy...think they must have been serving from a bottle supply rather than a tap.
The decor looks dated and needs a pick me up.
Worth going and giving it a try. Bring an empty tummy!

I grew up in the village of Shelf and the Bottomleys always had a good reputation for good food in a friendly atmosphere. I since moved to Hampshire & it’s always a pleasure to visit the ‘Bots’ again.
The warm welcome, great food and friendly service still remains. The food is homemade, delicious, and portions generous.
All served with genuine Yorkshire hospitality (I miss that living the the south).
Well worth a visit if you are in the area.

It's very sad to write a bad review about a place visited many times for over 20 years.
On Sunday I booked a table for 2 at 6pm but was finally served at 7.10. Bad start. I'd ordered " prime rib eye steak" medium rare. What arrived was over cooked, tough as boot leather and even had to ask for a steak knife.
When I complained about it the manager spoke to me like I was an idiot and said about the delay " it's December, what do you expect?"
What I expect is some basic level of customer service, being told there was a delay and would I bare with them would be a start. I was offered a replacement but declined as I didn't have another hour to spare and eventually wasn't charged for my meal. But that's not the point, it's the extreme disappointment with a previously favourite haunt that rankles.
I suggest anyone thinking of going should visit the " scores on the doors" website first too.

Went for a quiet meal with the hubby for my birthday. I ordered the Chicken and Smoked Bacon linguine which was amazing. The hubby loved the Roast Pork and Yorkie pud. Lovely meal, cosy place, with very friendly and helpful staff. Thank you!
