We visited this pub two nights in a row when staying in Shardlow on our narrowboat. We met up with friends for drinks one night and a meal on the second night. We were pleased with the choice of ales and the three dogs we had between us were made welcome, plenty of room for them to lie down. The food was nice and it was a pleasant pub to spend time in. Two things though spoilt the experience, one was that the toilets on the second night smelt horrendous, as if someone had been seriously ill in there, I was heaving and couldn’t stay a second longer to even wash my hands (I noticed a pump-out lorry came the day after so maybe their septic tank was full). The other thing was that their website says they shut at 11 on a Monday and yet we were ‘encouraged to leave’ at 10 and the member of staff on duty said he ‘usually likes to leave at 9.30 on a Monday’. Please update your website with the current times, it is really frustrating when pub opening times aren’t up to date, it seems to be a regular occurrence everywhere we go!

After a pleasant walk along the canal we visited The New Inn at Shardlow. I had a steak and Stilton baguette and it was huge. Filled real steak, not thin sliced stuff and coated with a generous helping of Stilton. Excellent food and friendly staff. Highly recommended.

What a wonderful find in the beautiful village of Shardlow. I was lucky enough to try one of Faye’s lasagna and it really didn’t disappoint. Smaller plates are available and are perfect . All the bar staff are really friendly and the locals are just lovely too. Dogs are welcome and there’s plenty of outdoor seating. I’ll be back for more Lasagna

So disappointed wanted a nice dinner but that’s not what we got! What we got was a landlady who was snappy and seemed drunk 🥴 the lad behind the bar needed a good shower because the BO was overpowering my chips were cold and my stake was well done not medium, I tried to get hold of one off the young ladies serving but they were more interested in talking to lads then serving won’t be going again.

I often visit the New Inn at Shardlow with my husband, so I chose to take a friend here for lunch. We didn't book and it was really busy (a Thursday lunchtime). As we were waiting at the bar to ask about a table, one of the ladies came to us and asked how many of us there were; she then proceeded to find us a table - brilliant. We both ordered salad bowls and they were delicious, as always. We will keep coming here for the friendly and efficient service, and great food.

We would advise booking if you intend eating here … it certainly is popular and we often see people turning up who haven’t booked . As usual we booked early evening and being creatures of habit both ordered cheesey chicken from the light bites menu. Didn’t wait long , the chips were hot and salad looked fresh as usual . We find the light bites menu just enough without wasting anything. A member of staff checked on us part way through the meal and bought more tomato ketchup as requested. Can’t fault the New Inn , the staff are all super polite . Definitely recommend.

Recently visited this lovely canal side pub for a meal, we were served very quickly and enjoyed our meal we always finish with a latte or cappuccino but unfortunately it was one of the worst coffees we have ever had, it was hot watery milk we complained to the bar staff who said their was nothing they could do as the machine was preset? This has not been our experience drinking Lavazza from other outlet’s

Busiest day of the year, Shardlow Festival. Understaffed, one member of staff completely losing the plot in front of customers. Eventually they shut the pub for half the afternoon. Reficulous, unprofessional. Thr hospitality industry have grizzled on about their woes since Covid. Even when they do have a opportunity to do well they blow it big time.

This is one of our favourite places to eat .. we tend to go early evening as it does get very busy , booking is recommended and to be honest the car park is a bit tight ! We had booked and arrived a little early at 5pm for our requested table for 5.30 pm . As usual we were seated at our requested table … not near or close but actually where we requested. Other establishments should take note … customers book a certain table for a reason ! Evie served us our drinks , a very polite young lady and reminded us that we couldn’t order til 5.30pm …maybe she heard my stomach rumbling! … We ordered cheesy chicken from the lite bites menu , having pestered the other member of staff , Jeremy to take our order . Jokingly he said he d type slowly! A very nice young man . The pub was filling up nicely, many people sitting outside enjoying the view of the canal and the passing barges . We didn’t wait long til our meals were in front of us , piping hot as usual, no complaints whatsoever. The kitchen staff must be working their socks off , as indeed the bar staff do , we would definitely recommend the New Inn Shardlow to anyone in the area , well worth seeking out , not only for the food but also the staff .

I have visited the New Inn since my childhood and is still our family favourite!. We regularly eat out, and visit a fair few restaurants but nothing compares to the food at the New Inn. Great food, always piping hot and consistently good, never a long wait, great prices, friendly staff, friendly atmosphere, lovely canal side location.

After a lovely day out we were looking for a pub serving meals and happily found The New Inn at Shardlow. Food wasn’t available until 5.30pm so enjoyed a drink and studied the specials board until then. We were very impressed with the friendly young staff - no glum, bored faces here! Our meals duly arrived and were all delicious. Considering it was early on a Tuesday evening, every table was taken. That speaks for itself and we will definitely be returning. Would love to see more veggie/vegan offerings on the menu although two of us could not fault the vegetarian lasagne.

A cracking little pub in a pleasant spot by the canal that happens also to serve really good pub food. We eat here probably once every couple of months on average and the standard is always really high. Servings are generous and served piping hot, with a good menu carrying all the pub favourites, with many extra possibilities on the specials board. Employs a lot of young people, often students out of term time, but the owners clearly insist on a high standard of service and the staff are invariably attentive and polite.

We were staying at Shardlow Marina Caravan Site and walked out to find some late lunch (about 3pm) after arriving. We were told food started serving again at 5pm so we had a drink and waited until 5pm - glad we did! Very good value, huge portions and tasty food - we had the Pepper Burger (specials board) and Cumberland Sausage and Mash (main) - neither of us could finish it! It got very busy here and most tables were reserved, so I think we were lucky to get one and hold onto it - would recommend booking.

Just what you need after a walk in the countryside, a welcoming pub with good food. The special's board has salmon in white wine, which was amazingly good, and the straightforward fish and chips were beautifully cooked, hot and promptly served. Good range of bears, I had Yorkshire pride, plus wines. We were a bit late getting there, so missed out on a desert - they stop taking orders at 2.30.

Usually love this place we come all the time for many years but completely let down recently. We brought family here in the week and they didn’t do the gov scheme off properly our bill and had to keep chasing them for change and our order. Then it took three hours to be served, eat and leave as service was really slow we had to keep chasing them as they didn’t come to us after half an hour even to take our order outside. We came back later in the week as a couple for lunch and the older gentleman taking our order he took our drink order but still 20 mins later we noticed he was still taking others orders too and ignored us then we asked for a menu and he didn’t bring any so we asked a lady to bring us one as you can’t just get one as Covid. She was brill then the same gentleman waiting on our table we asked for sauces and again he ignored us just said yes ok. When our food arrived we asked someone else and he was really good he got them to the table as one vinegar for two peoples chips not enough so thank you I dont know your name with fair hair and glasses you were brill. Really not good enough the gentleman who seemed to be the eldest one as shocking customer service from him.

Today we were in Shardlow to go to the Marina and thought we’d drop in to the New Inn for tea before heading home. We had stopped a few weeks earlier and had nice food and a great pint of London Pride, so thought we would return. We preferred to sit outside as caring for my 88yr old dad in a few days and have our own health problems so are being careful due to Covid. As it was a bit chilly we asked if any space inside and although busy the lady serving us found a table inside. Although the social distancing was very well observed inside the dining area we were a bit nervous as hadn’t been into a pub/restaurant for months and asked if it was ok if we went back out. We said we would be sitting waiting in our vehicle as it was a bit chilly. The waiter came to find us to bring us our food. We would like to recommend the New Inn as the food , scampi and chilli, and the very helpful and patient staff were excellent. This is only the third time we’ve ever been in the New Inn but will return and would recommend to others. The staff are great, the food is very nice and good portions and the ales very well kept. Thanks.

We booked a table for 4 people for lunch. On arrival, our booked table was occupied by 4 other people despite our name being on there, however we was given another table.I ordered the Liver & Onions from the ‘Specials Board’, one of my favourite meals, but it was really disappointing. I think I must have had the bottom of the pan as it was served over mashed potato and was closer to mince than Liver, with just a couple of pieces of Liver about an inch long, I don’t remember Liver being served liked that ever.On the plus side, my friend had Braised Steak and it was excellent, and all meals came in hearty portions.Beware of the drink prices too. Two half pint glasses of coke, a pint of Shandy and a fruit juice came to £12.25, pretty steep by any standards for this type of establishment.We will probably call in again, but maybe something different from the menu.

The location is fantastic and you couldn’t get a prettier view. The staff were incredibly friendly and sorted out any issues straight away! To say this pub was in an incredible location, the high prices and snobby attitude didn’t match, what a fantastic place. We sat down with our drinks and got talking to other costumers, always happy to chat to others, everyone that was in the pub were so lovely. We ordered some food but I wasn’t that hungry so I had a baguette, it was so nice, I recommend any of the baguettes for that price!!

This pub was chosen as a convenient place for four of us to meet for dinner. By chance it was also quiz night - and we love a good quiz! - so we reserved a table to be sure of getting seats. Good thing as it was very popular. We arrived early, our table was already waiting, and the ladies behind the bar were very welcoming. Between us we ordered the New Inn platter for two (enormous - perhaps enough for four!) and two of the vegetarian specials. All very tasty and reasonably priced. Some unusual real ales on offer too.

Location is lovely which is just as well because this pub wouldn't stay in business long without the beautiful location.

After moving into the area we regularly visit on a Friday lunchtime - the staff are always polite and welcoming, plus they remember what we drink. The food has not let us down and is always served hot and well cooked.

I popped here for a couple of drinks and a bite to eat, the food was lovely & homemade. The beer tastes good as well, service was good. Excellent value and a lovely location by the canal. A must for those summer nights.

My hubby took me here for lunch on Saturday 13 April. There was an excellent choice on the menu and a lot of specials on the board, The staff were very friendly and the two young lads waiting on were lovely and attentive. I had the fish and chips and hubby had sausage and mash which were both delicious. Will definitely be back for another visit.

Stopped off here for lunch by chance on our way south. Good choice of food and reasonably priced. We both had light bites and thank goodness, there was so much of it we'd never have managed a full size portion. Our dog was welcome in the bar.

Went there today as we’ve moved into the area. It was a beautiful afternoon and we’d ordered a few drinks. The service received by a barmaid was terrible. Not welcoming and very rude. I asked if I could order a dessert and was told no as I hadn’t ordered a main. Having spent over £30 in the pub I thought this was outrageous. When I asked why I was informed it was the policy of the pub only to serve desserts to those who had ordered a main. The pub was t that busy so I didn’t understand why. The rude barmaid offered no further explanation. Why have a menu if one can’t order from it? If it’s a policy of the pub why is not clear? My personal opinion is the barmaid couldn’t be bothered and as I was the only person of colour in the place I believe It could have been her way of asserting her authority. Left me feeling not welcome and I would not recommend the pub to anyone because of this.

Nicely situated next to the canal with a car park, the New Inn has an atmospheric traditional feel, with TV in the bar area. Dogs are made very welcome A good range of cask beers plus a few real ales are stocked.

This was without a doubt the worst breakfast we have ever had. They gave a new meaning to crozzled bacon! Cremated so it was unrecognisable. The plate was swmimming in grease as was the mushrooms. The sausages were of the lowest quality and should have been labelled meat free. When the young fella asked if everything was ok with breakfast we were polite and said “ actually, no it wasn’t very nice at all and really greasy” he said “sorry” and that was that! The staff carried on with their chat and we left with no further approach from the staff!! Won’t be going there again!!

Have been to this place a number of times and the quality of the food is consistently very good and more 'home cooked' than most pubs. Good beers and a warm atmosphere

Came here on a Monday evening, and it wasn't very busy so we had a choice of seats. The pub is nice, and the service was good. The food portions are huge, which I was very happy with! If you are a vegetarian like me, then they have a specials board just for Vegetarians, which when went, there were about 3 or 4 choices to choose from. One lady complained sat next to us about the way her lasagna was presented, and the barmaid dealt with it very well. Would recommend, and would come again - although I would sit further away from the door as the draft does come through and it was cold frequently!

Just called in for drinks when exploring the area. A very friendly traditional pub that does a good range of beer and although we didn't eat on this occasion will be on our list next time we are the area. The food being served looked really good and the bar was busy with diners. A dog friendly pub in a great location.

We actually ate here twice on one day as the food was good and also good value for money. Service was quick and efficient even through it was reasonably busy on each visit. We would recommend the New Inn and would return if we are in the area again.

Come here for food every so often. Food reasonably priced and excellent. Staff are generally good but seems to be a high staff turnover?

Went today to have coffee the cafe was so so busy. We have been quite a few times and never had a problem. The staff are so nice and work so hard nothing it to much trouble for them. Feel for the staff at times as people are so rude to them and shout at them. there is no need at all!! They all do their best for everyone. Give them a break!!!

Nice place, served quickly and bar maid was friendly. Has a nice atmosphere but yet another place allowing in dogs... One in there was about the size of a horse! Think they'd have something to say if I rocked up and took my horse in there!! The place had the fusty, smell of dog... It's gross. 🤢🤮 The restaurant area was separate and I assume they don't allow dogs in there but the smell carries... Stop allowing dogs in!! Not all are small, clean and quiet. It makes your pub stink!! Not a nice environment for a chilled pint at the end of the week.
