The Shady Oak

Relaxed and very friendly staff, absolutely beautiful setting and the home made food was delicious and well presented!! The children ate every last bite and so did we. Would recommend the Sauvignon Blanc NZ and the Malbec. Look forwards to our next visit.

We have just come back from a fantastic weekend with family and friends camping at the Shady’s campsite. What a lovely campsite. There are toilets and showers and a washing up station. Electric hook up available too! We enjoyed drinks by the canal in the beer garden and a fabulous meal. Everyone loved their food. Delicious! All the staff are amazing! Thank you for having us! We will be back soon!

Had a wonderful 3 night stay at The Shady with my wife daughter and little dog. It Started with our car getting stuck but the staff helped us tremendously and a local helped us get our car out - caveat we have had A LOT of rain but once we’d got our tent up we had some food at the pub we’d forgotten about it. It was our second visit and the food and service was exceptional and we felt very relaxed. The next night we ate and we were joined by my parents and some of our close friends so our table ended up being a table of 11 - great night food again was great (could have eaten 2 portions of the spam fritters) and the staff were fantastic, even our 1 star bar man kept us entertained us and made sure we had what we needed (he was great he’ll get the joke!) and we ended the night with family and friends laughing and feeling very happy. Throughly recommend the pub the food and drinks and the campsite is great, views and location 10/10 and the toilets super clean - great few days thank you

Visited The Shady on Tuesday 17th Oct. Stunning location on the canal and with views of Beeston castle and rolling Cheshire countryside. Sun was shining which always helps. Around 12.45 when I arrived. Staff were very friendly. Ordered a Flat white coffee which was perfect. Looks like staff have been practising their latte art which always adds to a good coffee experience 👌☕️ Nice relaxed atmosphere in the pub too. I wasn’t planning on lunch there but soon changed my mind when I saw a few meals come from the kitchen landing on tables nearby. I chose the sesame fried chicken starter and fancied the breads, olive oil and balsamic glaze too. The sesame chicken came coated in Panko crumb with coriander, pepper and chilli slaw and a generous spoonful of slightly spiced Mayo. The crusty bread with olive oil and balsamic went perfect with it too. I’d recommend this combo it was really good. All I needed was to wash it down with a nice pint from the selection of cask ales, but alas I was driving and had to head back to the office. (All good things come to an end I guess) Will definately revisit, with family maybe for a Sunday lunch as was recommended to me by the 2 couples on the next table, who also told me the pub has recently come under new management. Doing a good job whoever they are. Hidden gem this. A great Cheshire pub See you soon

Stopped off here a while back and today we had been out and about and decided we would revisited and we wasn't disappointed we food was lovely and when we pointed out that's a nut warning wasn't on the menu the manager was on on it to re word the menu we will be back.
