First time visiting this very popular pub. Very nice décor with comfortable seating. Staff were very nice and helpful. The main menu consists mainly of wholesome popular meals and burgers. Two courses for £10.99 is very good value. Will certainly be returning in the near future.
We hired the marquee for our wedding buffet.This was perfect for our family, friends and two small dogs!Great value,plenty of food for everyone and private enough to relax and celebrate our occasion.All staff were so friendly. The service was excellent from the kitchen/catering staff along with the efficient bar staff.There was plenty of high level heaters to keep us toasty warm along with the seasonal Christmas decorations that just made everything perfect for everyone.So many people commented on what a great place this was for any future family celebrations.All this service along with such fantastic value would be hard to find anywhere else.5+Stars!Thank you!
This was this year's annual visit to the Shippons for my Birthday meal while cashing in on the Christmas menu. Today was asked to move the the marque. At first this seemed like a possible ill thought-out choice given the bonkers cold spell, and the temp was borderline cold/warm. But the staff were more than happy to switch on extra heaters and soon the marque became our own private Christmas wonderland. The food as ever was great and the prices you would struggle to beat anywhere else. What really stood out for my tonight was the staff. Don't get me wrong the staff the past years have been good, but tonight they were attentive, funny, friendly, and genuinely the type of staff you would dream to have working for you. A great little team and a real set of assets to the place. Hopefully see you for my birthday next year!
My daughter and her partner hired the marquee for my granddaughters 2nd birthday family get together. It’s a really nicely decorated space. Plenty of daylight. There are heaters up on the walls if needed. We had the basic buffet which was perfect and plenty for the guests. Really pleasant room and the staff were lovely. Will definitely use the marquee for future events.
Food was nice. Came on a Tuesday evening. We had hunters chicken, fish and chips, curry of the day and the gammon. I had the curry and it was pretty good. Really good value. Sticky toffee pudding didn't come with a sauce which was a bit disappointing.
