Samuel G.
The mixed grill came out sizzling on a cast iron platter, and the meats had a good chargrilled, smoky flavour. I liked the range of textures, from tender chicken to juicy lamb, along with the spiced pieces, grilled peppers and onions. The warm, soft naan was great for scooping up the juices and sauces, while the chunky golden chips were generous and not greasy. A fresh salad with lemon helped balance the rich grill. Hawkstone Lager and Hawkstone IPA were on tap, and both went well with the meal. The owner really stood out for friendly, welcoming service and obvious pride in the pub. We felt looked after without any fuss. The Shoe Inn in Plaitford has that comfortable pub feel, with hearty food to match. Canada Common is just across the way, with gentle paths through heathland and meadow for a walk. For a relaxing afternoon with a proper pint and a scenic stroll, or an evening out with the gang for something different, it's a great choice.

We came for dinner on Tuesday night and were really impressed by the food quality. The pub is nicely furnished, with good attention to detail, and the staff were friendly and attentive. We'll come again.

The room was nice in general, and being on the garden side meant the busy road wasn't too noisy. But sleeping was difficult. I’d read about the squeaky floorboards and thought they couldn't be that bad, yet even quiet footsteps in other rooms sounded like they were right at the foot of our bed.

The food was good and the service friendly, but we had to leave early because about six people were vaping inside near where we were sitting. It was very disappointing in the end.

The bed was comfortable, but the Shoe Inn was closed for refurbishment when we got there. Nobody told us about the work when we booked in May or emailed us afterwards. The phone was disconnected, though they did respond by email.
