Marsh Head Cafe in Newcastle-under-Lyme

We visited with friend on a Saturday night we had booked in advance and when we had visited before for drinks the food always looked lovely so decided to go for a meal. It was a bit disappointing when we were given the menu to then be given a long list of food that wasn’t available. Not very good for a Saturday evening. Mostly what was available was the burger which I have to say was one of the nicest I have had but if you don’t like burgers you would have been very dissapointed a real shame.

I’ve been a local in the shed now for many years and I’ve never come away feeling dissatisfied. I’ve probably tried everything on the menu, the Steak pie or Gammon chips and egg are my absolute favs. Today however I went for a Roast Beef dinner and it did not disappoint 😍🤤👌🏼 Everything was cooked to perfection, great taste and freshly cooked. I’m always boasting about the Shed to anyone I can so today I thought it was worth sharing on Tripadvisor. See you next Sunday 😁

Decided to come here with friends after hearing so much about there food especially the steak loaded fries,when we arrived we we taken to our table and asked if we would like any drinks,and we we informed of the specials. Well we were spoilt for choice in the end I went for the shepherd's pie and wow it was amazing my friends had the chicken kebab and the chilli and it was a huge hit with all of us . The service was great and overall atmosphere was fab from the food, service and music we absolutely loved it... First time for us all here and definitely not the last

I'm very, very disappointed. I have used the venue on many occasions for both food and drink, since it originally opened and I have always been happy with the meals I received. My last visit was a complete 180. All the meals that were ordered and received by my pary were disgusting. The fish, in particular, was 95% batter and had clearly been fried multiple times. It disintegrated into a pile of overdone batter. The gammon received was far too salty, and the roast dinner was cold. The cherry on top, we were offered condiments, we requested vinegar only, and the response was " we have run out." There is a convenience store 50m walk away, go and buy some! The venue was also freezing cold. There would have been little difference if we had eaten outside! Total rubbish, avoid, avoid, avoid!

It advertises as ‘Unique’. Yep no disagreement there. Maybe slightly Marmite ish. May I suggest it is geared towards a young / middle aged clientele, especially with the drinks, loud music, and range of food. I have been labelled a ‘grumpy, old, man’. Yet I loved it. Within that context, if you wanted to converse with invited company, it can be a touch awkward, and we were there for lunch. Elsewhere, I have rated a place 3*, because I struggled to chat. But this place just can’t be anything other than 5*. We were just passing, waiting for the traffic lights to change, and spotted it. What a fortunate find. For 2 slightly more senior folk than anyone else there, we asked to share a chicken wrap. Firstly the front of house guy could not have been more accommodating. Even put the chilli sauce in a small bowl as my wife likes it, I don't. Secondly, the food hit the spot. I bet there is someone out there who also immediately popped a chip in, and found it too hot, thus complaining. Not me. Loved the chips - anyone who does real (double fried) chips instead of the cop-out fries gets my vote. Unfortunately it is not near by for us. But we shall return. It is worth the effort. PS note to front of house, with 2 tellies showing different sports, would subtitles help to follow it ?

The Shed is a regular destination for us for both drinks and food and we feel so lucky to have a place that serves such delicious food walking distance from our home. We went tonight for a birthday meal, 4 of us in total and it was nice and quiet as midweek and early doors with a few tables eating and only a handful of drinkers. The draught beer list is superb - we enjoyed the Beavertown Neck Oil, Camden Lager, Camden Pale Ale and Estrella. There is also a good choice of gins and cocktail options. For food we ordered starters and mains - House Nachos and Tandoori Chicken Bites were both so tasty and served very quickly. Mains were 3 OG Burgers and the Smothered Pork Loin. We all said the OG Burgers were superb, as good as we've tasted anywhere and the Pork was delicious and filling too. All meals arrived quickly and piping hot. Added to this the service was friendly and welcoming, checking that we had everything or need more drinks and that everything was ok throughout.

We chose this place as was close to where we were staying for one night before we went home the next day. The food was great and although food took half an hour to arrive the service was excellent. It was a Saturday night so I expected it to be busy but was also very noisy. The food made up for it though.

We came to the Shed for a meal before going to the New Vic which is only a shot distance away. The service was superb and could not ask for more. The choice of drinks was impressive and the Cider they had on was good. We all had a different meal and the food was cooked to perfection. This was good value for what we had. The atmosphere was great and a great location looking over the Marsh on a sunny day. Even the music was good so a 5/5 from all 4 of us and we will be back when we next visit the Theatre

2 adults and 1 child. My wife had a burger, which she rated 8/10. My daughter had sausage chips and beans, but the sausages were burnt. I had the frickles, which were nice, but the beef patties were overdone, and the chicken sliders included 2 overcooked chicken pieces.

The food is litteraly incredible! This rivals the likes of hickorys and other smokehouses. How he does it I have no idea!! Tasty, fresh and fast! If I was being super picky I would like to see a couple of meals that aren’t ‘handheld’ but other than that, jesus it’s good!!

Been here for a drink but not for a meal until today. The food was absolutely gorgeous. The special of the day was a crab and prawn Singapore curry, and when I say the flavours were gorgeous it’s no exaggeration. We had two vegetarians and 3 meat eaters and we went for the vegan hot dog, and the Pitmaster burger, pulled brisket patty with bacon and beef rib. We all sat around the table oohing and ahhhing at how gorgeous everything was 😍 Waiting on staff were lovely and we were singing the praises of the young chef Aaron for the two hours we were there, that staff pulled him out of the kitchen so we could thank him. Can’t wait for an excuse to go back.

Lovely breakfast for us & the kids ! No faults at All, food was a little delayed but it wasn’t any problem & staff apologised for the teeny delay. We will be returning :)

We visited for Burger Night at The Shed (Wed). I had the El Chappo Burger, my partner who is vegetarian swapped the Arabian Prince for the Beyond Cheeseburger at the same price. First thing to say is the venue kindly accomodated our small requests for change like swapping the burger and having Stella lager as two halves instead of a pint in one go. This was very much appreciated. My El Chappo burger was Outstanding and my partner said hers was Excellent too!! For me, my burger was one of the best I've ever eaten! The fries were nice and crispy and the draught Stella was good too. The only downside was that the accompanying slaw came in the tiniest pot I've ever seen. Overall the meal was Superb and we shall be returning!

Went for lunch and had a sharing platter. Excellently food, 1st class pleasant service and great value. Can’t fault a thing, a return visit planned.

Excellent meal, friendly Staff, not a single issue. All should be of this standard. The rib of beef was outstanding.

Such a random place! Football on, someone setting up for open mic night but the most delicious grub! Really rate the chef in his previous ventures but as always he doesn’t disappoint. Top notch grub for Stoke on Trent

Visited with family last night, upon arrival the layout was very small and was seated to a table right next to the door, asked to move and was seated next to the bar area instead. We had pre ordered food a few days before and when I arrived I asked if I could change my meal and I was told that I could not change as the food was already prepared. One person had half of their main meal served and was left to go cold whilst other people were not getting served, the pints tasted terrible and I had to get mine changed once at the bar. Everyone else had their food after a very long wait and everyone getting served at different times. In the end my food did not even come out and I ended up asking for a refund as I would have been eating alone. So it seems the servers had lied about changing my meal as it wasn’t already prepared because it didn’t even come out!! The staff were very rude and did not even apologise and I was handed back my money like I had done something wrong. Very disappointed do not recommend this place

Lovely little place, lovely atmosphere, great food and really friendly staff, despite being really busy and not stopping the staff couldn’t do enough for you. Will definitely return and recommend

Visited The Shed for the first time today. Lovely and cosy. Michelle was great and welcoming. Steak and Ale pie and puds. Lovely! Covid rules in place. Definitely return and gave recommended to a friend.

Four of us went for dinner and drinks (including the gin & cocktail tree!!) and loved it. Steaks and burgers and starters and puddings were scoffed with glee. Service by Michelle was fantastic. We waited and wanted for nothing. Definitely worth a (re)visit

We frequent The Shed at least once a week (more if we can find time), it's out 'go to' place to eat or drink.The food is exceptional - nothing 'boil in the bag' here, all freshly cooked stuff which might take a little longer to arrive at your table, but it's well worth the wait. And, while you're waiting, the range of beers, spirits and cocktails is befitting an establishment three times it's size.If you're planning on bedding in for the night, try one of their famous cocktail trees or gin trees. Great for a group of friends or a challenge if there's just the two of you.They've managed to create a sense of normality through these difficult times (Test & Trace login and temperatures taken at the door upon arrival), and aside from having to wear a face mask when popping to the loo, you'd feel that the dreaded virus is a distant memory.The staff are incredible too. Friendly and accommodating, each working hard to provide a speedy table service with a smile, albeit behind a mask or a visor!Three years open and we never get tired of the place. In these dark times it's a real ray of sunshine... keep up the good work guys; we appreciate all that you do.

Brilliant atmosphere and staff- friendly and inviting - following all regulations so covid safe - highly recommended

Lovely owners! This place is gorgeous inside. Only thing is, I’ve had three evening meals here and twice the food took ages to come out, without anyone letting us know how long it would be. The food was lovely when it came out though. I’m a local and this place is my favourite place for breakfast! The dinners are great too. Give it a try!

Im never one to leave a review but I just had to after visiting here tonight. Hats off to the chef! And to Michelle who was very kind and friendly, 5* from start to finish. A lovely Atomsphere and we will definitely be visiting again. Thank you so much

Visited recently with some colleagues and we all left full and happy! The staff were lovely and very attentive. Amazing to visit somewhere that caters so well for vegans and puts some thought into the options! I often feel like an awkward bugger when eating out, but it was lovely to have choice here. Gutted I had no room for dessert, as I was informed they even had dairy free cream!The chips are also absolutely banging and I think I could happily eat them every day of my life forever now.

6 of us came to the shed to celebrate a 40th birthday. Our first visit but I’m sure won’t be our last . We had the gin tree which was fantastic. We also ate. The service was great and didn’t wait long . All the food was delicious especially the pie which 4 of us had. Amazing chips also. Will most definitely be returning.

We have never been the shed before and we tried it from the government eat out to help out scheme.... we loved it from the first sip! Drinks are great, food is delicious and the staff are so friendly! Also the loyalty card is an added bonus and the pornstar cocktails are amazing! Rach & Tim

Amazing food, great service, great hygiene and atmosphere. Really enjoyed our stay and will definitely return.

Great service, fab gin tree and delicious food! Would definitely recommend and will be back very soon!

Visited for the first time today. Lovely food and staff. First time my mum had been out in 8 months due to shielding, we all had a lovely meal and a lovely afternoon. Thank you

I enjoyed my time there quite a bit. It was cosy and intimate. I also really enjoyed the food which was great value for money. Will go back.

We visited for lunch and were not disappointed. The burgers are home made and one of the best I've had in a long time. Would highly recommend visiting!

Love this place. If you come, order the steak pie! You won't regret it. They have a great selection of drinks, especially the cask ales and gins. If the weather is good, the outside are is good. Dogs welcome. Staff are lovely.

We booked ahead less than a week in advance. Covid-19 regulations in place but it felt a safe space to eat without feeling "strange" Contact details were requested (track & trace), tables have been fitted with small partitions to help with segregation / social distancing, hand sanitiser in abundance, table service only, with our server keeping a safe distance whilst working. Quirky environment with shed items adorning the walls. Menu had food to suit all tastes and was hot and tasty. Excellent value as it would seem they were still offering discount off food on set days. Bonus! Will definitely be returning.

Went for a birthday drink, had the garlic mushrooms, olives and bread, bbq chicken wings and bowl of home cooked chips, lovely food, generous portions for the three of us, birthday girl enjoyed two cocktails. Safe distance between tables, friendly staff, attentive but not in your face. Nice local place to visit anytime of the day/night.

Great food. Great choice. Great drinks. Felt safe. Great service. Friendly staff. Be back soon xxxxx

great place, have eaten in and had take out. Pizza is excellent, the burgers excellent, the pie excellent. I'm slowly working my way through the menu. Being able to have all the options on take out is great for us as we have a friend on a limited diet but it means we can all eat together. Always polite and friendly, very chill environment overall excellent for a night out.

The food at the Shed is great, the quality is really good and the portion sizes more than enough! We always have great meals and there is an amazing selection of gins behind the bar. Great draft beers and cocktails too. What makes it so good is the atmosphere, it’s so chilled out and relaxed we feel at ease as soon as we walk in. The staff work so hard too, especially at the moment with the additional rules in place. I recommend to anyone, can’t wait until next time

Amazing cocktail tree with a huge range of selection. Fantastic food and fantastic staff! Would definitely recommend for a relaxing night!

Nice staff, good service! Not far from the city centre 👌the food tastes great 👏. The perfect place for a pleasant way to enjoy a relaxing evening

Very fortunate to live near this gem of a “shed”, serves a great range of beers, spirits and cocktails. The food is too die for, amazing burgers, fantastic fajitas and the steak and steak pies are just perfect. Small, intimate bar but with great hygiene Re Covid, outdoor tables also and really friendly and accommodating staff. Highly recommend

The first time we went to the shed we had missed last orders for food, our fault not a problem. Staff were very polite and apologetic. 2nd time visited, I ordered takeout. No problems, very polite again, offered me a table while I waited and brought the pizzas out to me piping hot. Were still hot by the time I got to Audley. Tonight, wanted takeout but offered a table in. I had pizza and my partner had steak. AMAZING, chips were delish and very well presented. Garlic bread was lovely and the pizza, my new fav. The portion sizes are good as well, we are big eaters and I was full. Again, staff were polite, checked we were happy and very accomodating. All 3 occasions I have been very happy with the food and service. I even questioned about gluten free for a friend and that did not seem a problem either. Will defo be going again.

came to the shed yesterday and as always the food and service were amazing. michelle on the front of house was more than helpful, and as always chef Jon,the food was faultless. Keep up the great work everybody i highly recommend you to all my family and friends.

A few of us ladies went for a night out and started in the shed we had booked a table it was not too full which is good the staff were very pleasant and attentive Advised us on what offers they had and it felt that it was very safe and we were a good environment. Very friendly

Lovely place. Amazing atmosphere, staff are incredibly helpful and friendly and the food is great! Would definitely recommend to family and friends. Going back tonight :)

We went for drinks twice and both times we received abuse from the manager, the first time we went the manger said we were being “cheap” by ordering chicken wings when we had reserved a table specifically for drinks. it seemed she was trying to embarrass us in front of the other tables. The Second time we visited the shed the manager Said we had “been sick” in the toilets and tried to kick us out, again, tried to embarrass us in front of others... when we hadn’t done anything! We hadn’t even Had enough drinks to be sick?!? Extremely disappointed with this service and I think it has been very unprofessional! I Never normally leave bad reviews but I am unsure to why we were singled out. I would not recommend this bar to others as it seems they have problems with people for no reason

Great Service and Staff are excellent. Could not fault them at all. They have a good laugh as well..

We visited for my sisters birthday and the service we received was like no other! The food and staff were amazing as always. Lovely local food place highly recommend 😊

As ever a great experience at The Shed. Food was delicious. Service spot on and even better value as they have adopted the Eat to Save scheme. Highly recommended

Amazing food, nice atmosphere! Gabbie went above and beyond but great staff in general really happy with our visit! Definitely recommend

Wow. Amazing homemade food and lovely attentive staff. Doors kept open for ventilation and fantastic atmosphere. Oh, and couldn’t forget the cocktail pitchers!!! Will be back!!!

Beautiful home made food, friendly kind staff, good Covid precautions, and when it’s sunny they have the bi-fold doors and windows open. Also do pitchers of cocktails and amazing prices for the food and drink with such a good atmosphere

The Shed is really good, excellent food, excellent coffee, friendly and helpful staff and a really good atmosphere

Lovely welcoming friendly feel, food and drinks are amazing. Staff are really nice and can’t help you enough.

Brilliant night here. We were able to sit on the marsh and enjoy our drinks before coming inside for more and a few bar snacks, absolutely lovely can’t wait to come back!

We used to love this little gem before the lockdown, but went last night and we were appalled at the lack of covid precautions. There were people standing far too close together and it was like a madhouse. The food was poor too, the chips used to be lovely but now they are worse than McDonalds! In this time of uncertainty I would never go back to a place like this. It was scary.

First visit post lockdown. It was as lovely as ever. Staff are so welcoming and the food was lovely as ever. Had a really enjoyable sundat afternoon . It has a great atmosphere, very relaxing

Absolutely love this place, service is always bang on and the food is just amazing. We go here regularly. We were there last night and we are back there with friends tomorrow. We have never had a bad meal. Highly recommend the fajitas, pizzas, pie(best pie I've ever had). Last night I had the tandoori burger that was on the special board loads of flavour. I need that on the main menu

We love this place ❤️But boys swearing and lad banteringWas a put off for our night outYou have a a hard choice to balance. But not returning

A unique and welcoming bar and restaurant where on warm days the front opens out onto the grassy Marsh. The pizzas are TO DIE FOR! Seriously good. Thank you Jon and co!

It was our first night out in 5 months....... well worth the wait, food fantastic, the service from the staff were outstanding. Well done Michelle xxx

Lovely meal as normal at the shed.covid safety guidelines in place, the staff were friendly and polite despite people being rude and ignoring the sign outside to wait to be seated and walking straight in but staff intercepted and seated them safely.service was quick, food was fresh and tasty with orders taken at our table and food bought to us.The pie was tasty and the tapas were great and well presented.Tables were cleaned and left ready for new customers.Thank you for a fantastic meal.We dont normally go out mid week but glad we did.

We went tonight for a quick early evening meal! My partner had the burger and I had the chicken pesto salad. Everything was beautifully cooked and the service was fast and always with a smile. The ladies are doing so well and we felt really safe with the measures they've put in place because of the current situation. I can't fault any aspect of our visit and we will be back as soon as we can! We love The Shed.

The service we received was fantastic, the staff were very accommodating, friendly, approachable and extremely helpful in our order decision. The service was quick from order to plating out and when the food arrived it was fantastic! I would highly recommend this place to couples, families and friends as they cater for all groups. Great atmosphere for all!

We always used The Shed prior to lockdown and it was brilliant. We booked and had a meal last week and were so disappointed. The food wasnt the same at all and the staff weren't as good. The chicken fajitas were black and salty in A puddle of oil and the stilton sauce on the dry chicken was more like peppercorn. Im told the chef has changed and so has front of house. We messaged to pass on our feedback but no response .

Went along twice over the weekend.Saturday for a drink with the Father in Law, good draught with plenty of choice!Sunday walked along for a meal with my better half. The food was excellent, the Steak and Ale pie was incredible. We will be back soon.

Fantastic food & drink! Great atmosphere & Service! We never had a bad meal or drink in this great little pub! Highly recommend it! The steak & ale pie & chips it was to die for 😊

Just wanted to say a well done to everyone, I really know how hard it can be to keep on top of everything especially now we have extra guidelines to follow! But last night I was the other side of the bar/floor enjoying a night out with friends at the shed. We were greeted and shown to our table, the table service was fab, the space around the tables was well thought through, the staff we’re attentive if they felt there were too many people in one space, the food was fabulous (I recommend the bbq base meat lover pizza ) and the new pitchers are great to share amongst friends! As a customer, I had a really lovely time and I think you are nailing the government guidelines ❤️ Amy xx

Visited for a weekend lunch. Food was amazing, would definitely recommend the cheese and bacon burger! Staff were great and very welcoming. Social distancing measures in place but doesn’t affect the ambiance of the place. Good prices for drinks too and a large selection of gins and some great offers on the specials. Overall a great place and we will definitely be returning.

Had a lovely experience today at the Shed. Full guidance for Covid been followed. No rush from the staff & very cheerful & attentive atmosphere. The Waitress was very efficient & the food was lovely. Really had a lovely time....the doors were open & the breeze was lovely where we sat. A must for a meal or a cool drink with friends.

What a lovely lazy lunch, fabulous food, generous freshly cooked food. Variety of drinks of all types inc Tea/coffee ( served with chocolates)All at competitive prices, we were served by Amy & another young lady with pigtails friendly, polite & professional.Recommend this establishment without reserve, a must go for everybody

Went out to The Shed as a couple, greeted at the door by lovely bar staff with very quick table service, food came beautifully cooked, I can recommend the bourbon ribs! Lovely night, will definitely be coming back, thanks

Lovely food, lovely drinks and great service. Chicken fajitas were amazing. Follows covid measures well, screens and social distance markers in place

Booked for a catch up with friends. Terrible service from the start, no manners at all, nothing costs a please or a thank you. You certainly don't expect a sarcastic attitude to complaints. No need for an attitude from people serving. Not even an apology for forgetting a meal and not having sauces to go with a meal. Served a sauget of 1 magonise between 5 people. Had to keep requesting service after being told it was table service only. It was OK though if it was the regulars and we assumed this was the case after being ignored by the staff for talking to them. One rule for one and one for another. We have been regulars for years but after the rude attitude tonight, we will not be returning. Such a shame because the food as always was great. Just the service has let them down

Nice food, nice drinks and lovely staff especially Michelle who was greeting and serving customers! Thank you x

i have visited the shed a couple of time in the past but only had drinks.yesterday afternoon we popped in for a drink but decided to give the food a go,and we were not disappointed at all.I had the katsu chicken burger,and my friend had the fajitas which were both excellent. Michelle was very helpful and nothing was to much trouble.great to see you open again.

The Shed. My favourite localUsuallyWe've ventured out tonight. Just for a quick drink . I rang before our visit. Check on rules. All above requirementsNo issues on arrival. Offered bar or outside table service. Thanks But full of young men.swearing, bantering mostly. C.. word used oftenThe chef knew the group of men. They obviously visit often. They were not happy they not able have a reserved table inside for a boozy night even though bookedThink Michelle? Mentioned for blocking itThey booked in for next week Are you a Lads pub now?If so great wish you well

Really surprised how great the food was. I had the hangover burger and it was delicious. My husband had the beef and ale pie and the amount and quality of beef was superb. Didn't try the puddings as was to full, but will go back and try one next time. Michelle was taking orders, cleaning tables, greeting people and checking everything was okay, doing a brilliant job! 5 ☆☆☆☆☆ The Shed is by the green so you could just sit outside and enjoy a drink. A really nice place with a great atmosphere.

The staff were all really attentive and polite and meals and drinks were explained if needed. The food was delicious - really generous portions - and waiting times were perfect. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone wanting a relaxed meal out with drinks, or if you just fancy nipping in for a gin or two!

had a really nice night with my friends, on a really busy night. The staff made sure it was following social distancing rules despite it being really busy. Food was delicious too. A massive thanks to Amy for being a helpful and friendly waitress even though it was really busy.

Thanks Ethan, the 10oz Rump was perfectly cooked med/rare. My sister and I with our Hubbies had a wonderfully chilled afternoon enjoying a well earned meal and table service drinks to start the Summer break. Only thing I could complain about was the weather. Good service, friendly staff and great atmosphere.

Myself, husband and son visited The Shed for the first time today since it reopened after lockdown and it did not disappoint. Michelle looked after us and was really lovely, she was so great with my little boy and made a real fuss of him. We felt incredibly safe with the new restrictions and it’s clear that the social distancing guidelines have been taken very seriously and are completely adhered to. To top it off the food was also amazing!

We visited the shed for my wife's Birthday on Friday evening with our 2 boys, aged 5 and 8. Our table was booked for 5.00pm and we arrived and were swifty shown to our table where we ordered drinks. We all felt extremely safe in the environment.It was table service, so all drinks were brought to our table. We ordered food which took around 20 - 25 minutes and all of the food was amazing! I had the steak pie, my wife the fajitas, a burger for of the boys and chicken nuggets for the other, all the meals were plentiful and delicious.We had a lovely evening and Michelle who looked after us was great, nothing was too much trouble. Thanks for an extremely enjoyable meal! 5 stars from us!

Lovely Sunday afternoon able to sit outside in the sun, excellent service from the waitress Michelle. Freshly cooked food. Nice view

Excellent food we had couple of burger meals and fajitas fries etc and drinks really tasty and fresh. compliments to the chef excellent Table service from Michelle Well done thank you for reassuring our children and being so attentive we will defo see you you again

Went today with 4 friends, requested cheese salad no cucumber, it was delivered as if it was prepared with no thought, had 10 pieces of cucumber. one teaspoon of grated cheese and a few leaves, one half tomato and no dressing. No check to ask if everything was ok. What a deterioration from our last visit. So disappointing.

Just dropped in for a meal a while ago, but was disappointed as that some of the choices weren’t available and had to go somewhere else. It is normally okay, but this was very early on in service of being open.

I came across this venue on the first page of the top places to eat in or near Hanley. I checked it out and it had a high approval rating and advertised itself as vegetarian friendly. I drove us to it, and thought it looked a bit unprepossessing as I approached, but dismissed that thought because it was a dull and dismal day, parked up (there was reasonable free parking nearby, which is a bonus) and went in. The greeting was a bit half-hearted, but I helped myself to a couple of menus and sat down to peruse. Despite the 'vegetarian friendly' claims, this was without a doubt the worst selection of vegetarian options I've encountered since a visit to Germany in the '80's, and the Germans had only just invented the word 'vegetarian' at that time. There were a couple of starters listed as V and 1 special. There was nothing on the main meal list. Because mum is very elderly and frail, I did not want to do my default action of leaving without ordering, since that would have involved then driving around to find somewhere else, so we compromised and ordered what we could, ate quickly and left as soon as it was finished. A final insult on the food front - I do not like salt on my chips, but whoever prepared my food had to do the 'cheffy' thing and salt my chips before serving them, thereby ruining them for me. I don't like giving negative reviews, but sadly I can do nothing but this time, and I certainly would not return, a view, by the way, that is shared by mum.

A good lunch today simple tasty and good value. The menu has a good range of food. This is my second visit and will definitely visit again.

Went for breakfast which was good but staff seemed to have no interest in customers. Had to go to the counter to ask for a menu, again to order and again to pay.Just didn't feel welcome.

Good food but service could have been better. I was expecting waitress service but soon realised that this was not the case after we’d sat at our table for 5 minutes without a menu. You also need to order at the bar so be aware of this, as we were not told at the time.

well i cant remember how many times we have now been to the shed,it honestly gets better every time we go.the sea bream special is amazing well worth a try if you havnt already.great food,staff and atmosphere, cant beat it .see you sunday for the open mic

Visited the shed last night , food was absolutely gorgeous ... There was 14 of us all together so had a range of starters and mains and they were all spot on. I personally had the bread and olive starter which was fantastic and big enough for two people to be honest followed by stilton chicken breast . It was a huge butterflied breast really juicy and the stilton sauce was amazing . The cocktails were also fantastic not your usual pre mixed sweet rubbish . Glasses were garnished with a range of items one even includes your very own mini rubber duck ! Brilliant ... Will definitely be visiting again .

Went after seeing someone’s post on Facebook. We did not know it existed until then. It is a hidden gem, nice food, good service, good selection of drinks in a quaint setting, you do get the impression of being in a shed with tools etc around the place. Nice place to go, good value for money

Visited here for Sunday afternoon meal. Great little and unique place, not really a pub but serving a great selection of ales and lager, spirits, gins etc. Sky sports football was a bonus! Nice to see locals, groups, visitors, couples, families old and young well catered for. An wide range of food available at decent prices

Meal last evening disappointing, tandoori chicken extremely salty, spice on top of the chicken not cooked off. Main course Mediterranean beef described on the menu with capers, sun-dried tomatoes came as large tough strips of beef, tinned tomatoes and olives, not as described on the menu.

Came for breakfast at this busy Cafe, well tucked away ! Great breakfast, but the young lady serving was on her own, and struggling to get everyone served ! You need more staff !

We have just had a first (hopefully not last) visit to The Shed. We were very impressed with the staff , the delicious food and the feel of the place.

visited here for the first time on thursday,and ive got to say its a nice find and somthing different. i had the swordfish which was really tasty,great selection of beers and spirits, freindly helpful staff,couldnt fault it.defo be back again soon

had a lovely evening with family here on saturday night,the food was great all home cooked and fresh,the homemade pizzas are definitely
