Shire's great food, great service but it would seem if you give a tip in cash the staff get it if you pay by card and give tip on card then it goes into management after finding this out I find it unfair on the young waitresses not getting what they are owed. Such a shame after a lovely meal we won't be going again as I find this disgraceful I do hope people read this and make a point of leaving a tip in cash.

It was my aunt's 90th birthday meal with 11 of us. The staff went the extra mile to make her feel special. They gave her a small bottle of prosecco and put a giant sparkler on her cake. The food was excellent too. Good value for money.

Loved the food. Good value for money. Extensive menu. You don't need to eat for a week before you go, portions are huge. Staff friendly and efficient and very helpful. Food piping hot. Lovely outside area. Highly recommend.

Didn't look much from the outside but we had a lovely lunch. Did get a bit of food envy, I chose the wrong dish sweat and sour chicken, I thought the burger, fish and chips and prawn salad that the others had looked so much better. My dish looked a bit plain and boring, it tasted OK but was a bit boring. The others really enjoyed there food, I'd go again and just choose something else.

Myself, my wife Carol and her cousin Lorraine go out every Monday night, for the last 2 Mondays we have dined at the Shires and we will dine here again. The restaurant is clean and comfortable, the service is friendly and professional, the food is excellent. Carol had gammon which came with new potatoes,eggs,large onion rings and side salad, I had lasagna, fries garlic bread and side salad while Lorraine had steak with all the trimmings. They were all generous portions and definitely value for money so if you enjoy freshly cooked, top quality food this is the place to come. Why not check out their menu online to see they choice of food on offer, I can guarantee you won't be disappointed.

The restaurant was VERY busy when I visited on a Sunday, so perhaps not my usual experience there. Some of the vegetables were a little more "Al Dente" than I would have liked and the roast potatoes were over-salted. All notwithstanding, it's still one of my favourite places to eat.

Good food, bit pricey. Good selection of beers that are more reasonably priced. Nice outdoor seating area overlooking the outdoor bowls green.

Lovely quaint pub and restaurant out the way so not to busy, great for family. Portions are huge. Extra carpark so no hassle parking. Friendly good service. Clean and tidy place with plenty of room and function room. Nice to sit outside in the hot weather. Bouncy land is great for the younger kids and you can sit and have a beer while they play. Would definitely recommend

I’ve taken my parents here twice & will definitely be back! The service from Liam was amazing! He remembered us from the last time we visited & made us all feel very welcome! Carvery is amazing too! We live near Leeds but will make a special journey to visit again! Thanks Liam - we will be back soon!!
