Yummmmmmmy. Fabulous find on our travels. This really is a lovely pub. Doesn't serve food all day so check the kitchen times but worth a drink in the bar while you wait for it to start serving. It seemed like quite a locals pub but in no way intimidating and made to feel very welcome. There was a good choice of drinks and some nice real ales. We all had a lovely meal. It is dog friendly so that is a bonus. Would definitely have used again whilst away if we were in the right direction.

Highly recommend, lovely friendly staff who can’t do enough for you. Proper home cooked food to die for, just make sure you leave room for the delicious deserts. Very reasonably price It’s that good we had two evening meals on a four day holiday break 😊

Food was ok and the staff are friendly and welcoming. The pub is clean and tidy and they also have a beer garden. There is also a fair choice of beers and a good selection on the food menu.

Food is absolutely delicious, onion rings are to die for,gammon steak was thick and juicy, couldn't fault any of our starters, mains or desserts,staff were very welcoming and very attentive. Bill for 5 starters, 5 mains, 5 desserts and drinks came to £153 which for the quality of the food was incredible value for money,cant wait to go back

This pub has been a firm favourite for many years, but we hadn't been to Northumberland for 18 months before our visit today. It was so pleasing to see the two usual ladies behind the bar, and the fact that they recognised us was the icing on the cake. Our meals were prepared to perfection and the friendly atmosphere made for a very relaxed lunch. That we shall return , is a foregone conclusion!

We were at a local campsite and booked a family lunch at Shoulder of Mutton. 5 adults, 1 child and 2 dogs. The staff were so welcoming from the moment we stepped in. Lovely real fire and comfortable seating. We had a three course lunch and each meal was delicious. The Apple Crumble was Devine! We will be back thank you for a lovely meal.

Called in here for first time after consulting TripAdvisor for a pub lunch whilst driving across Northumberland from Bamburgh to Otterburn. Nice clean pub with friendly service and good pub grub. We both had the 'roast of the day' which was pork and it was presented well and tasted lovely. Was good value. The venue is dog friendly and also has a nice beer garden. Will defo return if we're in the area and highly recommend it to others.

We went here for a drink and food and did not stay here. We hoped to get some food, but unfortunately the kitchen was closed. After we ordered a drink, they were so sweet and made us a sandwich. It tasted very good and the beers were also great. The atmosphere was ok, but over all this was great to hang out.

The food was hot, perfectly cooked and served promptly. The staff were so welcoming and accommodating. I would highly recommend a visit here, and we will definitely return if we are in the area again. Thank you!

Our family love the Shoulder, it serves excellent food, nice menu and the staff are lovely. We have to have the potato skins to start tats become a tradition! I had a lovely gammon steak with pineapple and an egg as a moon and it was excellent, but a big portion. But when I looked at desserts and saw lemon meringue pie well I had to home some and it was really good

We returned here, a 25 minute drive from home, after some months away and found everything was as before, with excellent food and ale plus good service and atmosphere. For starters, I had a black pudding scotch egg with brown sauce (a hard choice between that and haggis bon bons with a peppercorn sauce) whilst my wife had potato skins with dips. They were both piping hot and excellent. For mains, my wife had lasagne whilst I had crispy belly pork with mash, roasties, vegetables (broccoli, peas, cauliflower, cabbage) and gravy. The lasagne was as good as anything us or our mothers' ever cooked at home, being thick and herby in nature, whereas our own was a bit on the thin side. The belly pork was a real surprise, coming as two pieces, like thick slices of pie, with a thin, crispy coat, plenty pork and not too much fat. To be honest, it was the nicest belly pork that I had ever tasted. The mash and roasteis were herby and very tasty. The cauli was firm, not overcooked, and the other vegetables were just that - tasty other vegetables. There was far too much for me and my wife to eat after a starter and we ended up taking some of both home in doggy boxes kindly supplied (though the dog, a bagle (beagle-bassett cross) hasn't had any yet, he would've scoffed both full main portions in minutes). Sea salt and black pepper grinders were available on the table, which is rare these days in a pub, especially the sea salt, whilst a pepper mill nearly always has to be requested. My pint of Deuchars India Pale Ale off the hand-pull was very pleasant. Prices were very reasonable for the type and size of the meals and, all in all, it was an excellent and highly recommended experiece, being the best of all the weekly pub-restaurant lunches that we have had this year. The only minor criticism was that the table was very sticky, compared to the others that we have come across, presumably from the residue of the often-used cleaner. My paper napkin, under the cutlery, left a small piece of itself on the table and everything laid on it, including my leather hat, stuck to it to some extent. Presumably, this is nothing that couldn't be cured by hot soapy water used between each application of anti-bacterial spray.

Lovely friendly welcome with social distancing measures in place. We both opted for the roast of the day baguette with chips and onion rings to share. I am very fussy with chips and don't often eat them as they are often frozen chips deepnfried or oven chips which I detest. I was not disappointed. Absolutely delicious proper chips and onion rings the size of which I've never seen! Beautiful turkey and gravy baguette, and huge portions. We both really enjoyed the food and the friendliness of the place and really look forward to returning soon. These are the local little businesses that we need to support following lockdown.

Played today, Mon 26th August, Great layout, but sadly the greens are diseased and awful, and the tee boxes are terrible, very expensive bar, and no food being served, even though there was a competition on, and the bar was busy, Sadly one to miss in the future.

We visited Hexham yesterday and found this café in the Market Place, after a lovely River Tyne walk. It was quite busy at 1pm but we didn't have to wait long for our table. The girls made us feel very welcome and worked so hard while we were there clearing tables and getting everyone seated as soon as possible. My husband had a bacon sarnie and I had a ham and mushroom omelette which was so light and fluffy, delicious. Coffees were great too. Plenty of choice on the menu and great prices. Doggy friendly too with a treat for pooch 🐾

What a welcoming, hospitable place. If you ever need cheering up, this is the place to go. We were made welcome immediately, and tony the owner had us in stiches from the start. Everyone there were so friendly, and what had started as an intended short visit, led to us staying to closing. Met some brilliant characters, who all just made our day. Dog friendly too, which was an added bonus to us. Can't recommend enough.
