We called in on Sunday 20th October. Lady who took our order explained the chef is on his own today so wait will be 40 mins. We were ok with this. 25 minutes later our starters came out with my sons meal ( just what we asked for and all food was cooked to perfection and hot👌) then shortly after we finished the starters our mains came out. We had mixed grills and everything was cooked perfect even the steak was amazing. All I can say is everything from front of house to the unsung hero’s in the kitchen big Thankyou. Whatever this place does , don’t let your chef go. You’ve set the standard so next time we visit we will be looking forward to the food.

I come to this pub all the time I love the food the staff are so friendly and hard working. It's very well run, always warm and welcoming and always very clean. I love it here. We have vans on local caravan site and always tell our guests to use the Mere park pub which they do.

We had two Gammon steaks both Luke warm the chips were warmer than the chips but not hot. We Olson had a rump Steak well done it was like a lump of meat not like a Steak but was rare was taken back re cooked very burnt but was still rare l could have told them it was to thick. We Complained but the server told other customers had said the Gammons were cold. They also kept running short of forks , The Staff could be more welcoming and informative like telling were the Cutlery and condiments were.

When we arrived came in and found a table with no issue the pub was clean and had a nice vibe. The pub wasn't very busy but there was a few customers in eating and a few groups. We scoured the menu and found our feast. We went up to the bar where we were greeted by Julie who was very welcoming and took our order. We ordered a large mixed grill, a double hunters chicken and a house sharing platter. We had a large Pepsi and a jack Daniels apple and lemonade too. As a blue light card holder we used this discount which made the Already cheap meal even cheaper!! This is fantastic. We sat at our table and chatted quietly awaiting our food. 30 minutes passed and our food hadn't arrived not a huge issue for us although we were restricted by time slightly. After 40 minutes Julie came over and apologised she said I'm really sorry you have waited so long the kitchen staff member was on his own we said its understandable and not a problem she then said ill get you a drink each for having to wait which was a really nice gesture and very kind of her. Our food then arrived a few minutes later. The double hunters chicken was fantastic cooked well a good amount of chips and loads of peas. Then the large mixed grill again fantastic although the steak was cooked perfectly the steak was tough in places which can be luck of the draw. We feel the house sharing platter could be bigger but the food was good wings excellent, dirty chips good, chicken bites weren't very big more popcorn chicken size but tasted okay, garlic bread was nice good flavour and nice char grill lines, the onion rings were okay but are not of the best quality they are the onion/potato mix onion rings. Good variety and of sauce for dipping. Although we had to wait evey bit of the food that came out was enjoyable and piping hot. Even then we both left satisfied and with a smile on our face because we enjoyed the food but ultimately the customer service we received from Julie was absolutely outstanding she is a real credit to the company and we will definitely be returning.

Food was really good quick to be served too watched the footy, but what spolit it was the football commentary was left on low volume no one was really bothered about it, and i heard quite a few people the same mind as myself dome music would have been good. It was also REALLY hot which was sending myself and a few other people to sleep. Perhaps if there had some music on it wouldn't have seemed so boring and wouldn't have lacked atmosphere? It just died after the match

We decided to go to the Shovels to try the two meals for £13.49 offer.We arrived at 17.45 as going to a show in Blackpool. On arrival we parked up and walking to the entrance we noticed that the bin near the wooden table was overflowing with empty boxes and waste, so much that it had spilled out all over the paving, not a good advert on first impression ! We entered the premises to try and find a table but nearly every table had a reserved sign on , apparently due to the fact there was to be a quiz at 20.00 hours but eventually we found a table for 2 which had not been cleared or cleaned (which we did ourselves) and ordered drinks and food at the bar , served by a pleasant friendly lady. We ordered the fish and chips deal which was served promptly and was very good and value for money, however we realised that we had no cutlery in the box so I went to try and find some but the bar staff were busy and no waiting staff seemed available so I went from table to table looking and eventually found a couple who had some on their table..and returned to our table to eat what was now warm as opposed to hot. All in all the food was good but the general cleanliness and customer care just took the edge off the occasion.
