Lunchtime reasonable food...said ham and eggs, but was ham and egg! One tall blond lady with hair nearly to her waist, continually stroking it and checking eye liner....not on in a food establishment...put us off going again....shame as it is quite good

Booked a table for Sunday lunch for ten of us. Had to wait in reception for a good 10/15minutes for our table. Then another hour for our food. 9 of us ordered carvery one ordered hunters chicken. We kept asking for our cards to collect Sunday carvery because we saw the queue was very long and we didn't want the hunters chicken person to be eating alone. This is exactly what happened. They told us we could go up just as the one meal came out. The person had finished his meal before we even got back to the table. The food is lovely and that reflects into why it is so busy. Just a little chaotic. When we got the bill we noticed four coffees had been added (not one person had a hot drink at our table?) and a beer that was ordered but not in stock was left on the bill (that's an understandable mistake) but the coffee? In total nearly an extra £20 was added to bill.

Visited this place on our way to London. Looking at this place from the outside I was a little reluctant as to actually go in as it looked and in fact is a bowling green. However the car park was full and the overflow car park had a few cars in. When we got in we were greeted with the desert chiller with some beautiful looking deserts. The inside of this restaurant is covered with old film posters and being of that age to appreciate the carry on films & on the buses it was nice to see the posters. The service was good and pleasant, the staff were nice and friendly. The food was first class. Everything was of a very good quality cooked perfectly and the taste was great. A truly enjoyed meal and relaxed time here.

We were advised to book as it gets very full. Small car park choc-a-bloc rammed but large spacious overflow car park across the road. Offered a choice of tables either near the carvery or in the front part of the restaurant which was good. Carvery was good, with a good selection of vegetables, very hot plates as advised by the carvery chap. The beef was good and the turkey was very juicy. Staff efficient and polite. Would recommend 👍

Worst experience ever tonight, the food was either over cooked or not cooked to order... Pre booked table and food to come out at a certain time and 1 hour later food comes out and was shocking..... Plates passed over people's heads and food then dropped of the plate on to children, definitely won't be in a hurry to go back, very disappointed

Decided to go somewhere different and was very pleased with this place. It's all home cooked food too. Planning on going back one day soon. Updated, not as good as it used to be. Chips not that great. And food in general was just meh. Bland, and chewy chicken in the chinese curry. Just really not to my taste. Also, seems a lot more expensive.

We've been loyal patrons of The Shires for years, always enjoying their excellent carvery. However, our recent visit was disappointing. We ordered three Diet Cokes, which were flat and tasted cheap. Despite our complaint, the waitress didn’t offer replacements and charged us full price. Sadly, this experience has put us of returning.

This is our favourite place to eat out. The food is always excellent with a generous amount. And the carvery always has a great choice. It is always better to book if you can but they can usually accommodate a couple if you just call in. You can now even fet a carvery takeaway.

We ate here last week, I’m not sure if it has changed hands but it has gone downhill badly. The chips were awful and couldn’t eat half of them as they were scrag ends, the steak pie was just a bowl of watery gravy and steak with a puff pastry lid. The seasonal veg was mainly sweetcorn with a bit of carrot chucked in. We did complain about the chips but the waitress just shrugged and said they were home cooked chips and she would mention it to the kitchen. One of the waitresses had very long hair, not tied back, and as she cleared the table next to us, her hair dipped in the curry pot, her hair must have do much dinner in it when she finishes her shift? Surely that’s a food safety issue?? I don’t like to give bad reviews but I don’t think they care? Other people were complaining at the same time but the waitress with the long hair didn’t seem overly bothered. Outcome is we won’t return, it’s a shame as we have been coming here for about 10 years and always had a good meal

I can understand a place getting a poor review if it's busy and the staff are under pressure. But it was a Sunday lunch. Every seat was full. The staff were fantastic, efficient and professional. The food was not only top rate but would satisfy the biggest of apatite. Its the 1st time I have eaten here. Of course I read the reviews before I visited. To say I was pleasantly surprised is an under statement. We were a party of 6. 4 adults and 2 fussy young person. Good quality furniture and fixtures. Very clean and well laid out. I'll be back.

60th birthday celebration was supposed to be a special day! We had to beckon a waitress after a long wait for our order to be taken, we placed our orders from the menu and a couple within our group of Eight purchased the carvery. After 45 minutes of waiting we overheard a member of staff stating that they only had Turkey remaining on the carvery which neither particularly liked so had to change their order. The staff accommodated the change. A birthday cake had been put away for after the meal as a surprise.. it was definitely a surprise seeing it being taken to another table, fortunately the other table sent it back. 1 hours 15 minutes later the food was served. The food itself was nice but nothing special. The staff were pleasant but could have been better trained and organised.

Shire's great food, great service but it would seem if you give a tip in cash the staff get it if you pay by card and give tip on card then it goes into management after finding this out I find it unfair on the young waitresses not getting what they are owed. Such a shame after a lovely meal we won't be going again as I find this disgraceful I do hope people read this and make a point of leaving a tip in cash.

This is an unusual place. The carpark is nowhere near the entrance and the inside is a bit like a caravan park club house. The usual pub grub menu but nice food, well presented. Decent range of drinks and friendly staff. Maybe in summer when there is a chance to sit at the outdoor tables and there are a few more folks about ... Toilets were clean.

Didn't look much from the outside but we had a lovely lunch. Did get a bit of food envy, I chose the wrong dish sweat and sour chicken, I thought the burger, fish and chips and prawn salad that the others had looked so much better. My dish looked a bit plain and boring, it tasted OK but was a bit boring. The others really enjoyed there food, I'd go again and just choose something else.

Myself, my wife Carol and her cousin Lorraine go out every Monday night, for the last 2 Mondays we have dined at the Shires and we will dine here again. The restaurant is clean and comfortable, the service is friendly and professional, the food is excellent. Carol had gammon which came with new potatoes,eggs,large onion rings and side salad, I had lasagna, fries garlic bread and side salad while Lorraine had steak with all the trimmings. They were all generous portions and definitely value for money so if you enjoy freshly cooked, top quality food this is the place to come. Why not check out their menu online to see they choice of food on offer, I can guarantee you won't be disappointed.

The restaurant was VERY busy when I visited on a Sunday, so perhaps not my usual experience there. Some of the vegetables were a little more "Al Dente" than I would have liked and the roast potatoes were over-salted. All notwithstanding, it's still one of my favourite places to eat.

Service is pretty poor. Not very attentive as we had to ask to take drinks order after we got our table we were just left. Then had to ask again to get someone to come over for food order after waiting 20 minutes. Had to ask someone to take a dessert order and finally asked for the bill and then again to pay. Service was primarily two young ladies, not well informed or trained in how to manage service and tables. There were only 3 tables to attend to so it wasn't exactly busy. It's a shame because the food was fantastic! Great portions and everything was perfectly cooked. The chefs are obviously doing a great job. Drink options are pretty good with plenty of lagers, ales and spirits. Bar lady seemed informed and was easy to talk to which is great. If they could train up a decent team for service this would be a 5 star! Real shame.

Ruined evening. We booked ahead - 6 guests including 1 needing a highchair. When we arrived, they hadn't got a table ready for us yet.. not a massive issue, as 2 guests hadn't arrived yet. When we were seated, the table was all sticky, so we just wiped it down ourselves. Placed our order at the table- all fine, they brought all the drinks, except mine. Waited awhile.. but still nothing so I asked a member of staff, no apology, just they'd go get it. The food arrived in good time! Great. However, shortly after beginning, it seemed like a swarm of flies had quickly accumulated in our area. We spent the entire time batting the flies away from ourselves and our meals- especially difficult when you've also got 2 young children and their meals to watch out for. When I say a swarm of flies, I don't mean 3 or 4, I mean 20-odd. It was very very off putting as well as frustrating. I went to talk to member of the wait staff who did apologise, but basically said there was nothing she could do. I explained that it was ruining our meal. She said she would talk to someone at the bar. A short while later a member (I assume) of senior staff appeared, she seemed less apologetic and just explained why there were flies. She offered to move us tables- but it was too late by this point. She then set up a fan to try and help. The fan received complaint from a member of staff- saying it was inconveniently placed. We also heard other staff complaining about wanting to go home.. which I understand is perfectly normal, but not what you want to be hearing as they walk past your table. Especially when you're already feeling a bad atmosphere. Some of us gave up eating our meals, some had rushed to finish as quick as possible. I went to the bar to pay, the senior member of staff from before took my payment, no word of apology at all. Then as we were literally walking away from the table she offered to give my 2 children ice cream. Which was a nice gesture, but would have been nicer before we were half way out the door, especially given how young they are (I wouldn't trust them in the car!) We politely declined and said thank you and goodbye We were all especially disappointed given the great reviews we had heard. We will not be returning.

Cinnamon , formerly Jubraj . Party of 8 to celebrate wifes 80th birthday . It was early evening and quiet but food and service excellent. Two of our party asked for dishes not on menu and this was easily sorted. Food tasty and plentiful , everyone agreed best Indian food they had had for ages , this included 4 of our Irish cousins visiting for the birthday . Nothing was too much trouble for head waiter , who was helpful in dish selection and had a good sense of humour . Will be visiting again very soon.
