The beef mushroom and red wine pie was absolutely delicious. The pastry was flaky, the filling was packed with flavor, and the mustard and horseradish mash was the perfect accompaniment. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, and the service was friendly and attentive. Definitely recommend this pub for a hearty and satisfying meal.

Called in here on our way from Beacon Hill to Old Winchester Hill around 11:00. Luckily managed to get a lunch reservation for 14:30 and a delicious hot chocolate. The Sunday roast continued to exceed our expectations, and we ended up taking a loaf of their freshly made bread home, too. The staff were so friendly and attentive. Cannot fault this place. Highly recommend.

Definitely the best pub in the area. It had a lot of plaudits and it is a lovely pub with hard-working staff. The menu was very promising so my expectations were quite high for an excellent meal. The food was good but not great. The Asian pork salad, lamb shank and the pork belly were all a bit dry and overcooked. Not bad enough to complain or send back but just not as good as I’d hoped. I will return to try again though as the menu alone shows that they do understand food - maybe it’s was just a bit of an off day in the kitchen.

Our favourite country pub. Traditional English meals are the best. Other non-English options are nice but less flavoursome, for example the chicken burger textures are great, really crispy chicken ❤️, but lacks flavour. Lamb and vegetables or roast beef and Yorkshires are so tasty and so worth it. Service is great as are the staff. Don't forget to get the bread and oil / balsamic dip while you're waiting for your starters and mains to arrive. If the weather is good, then eat out on the other side of the road next to the river 💪🏻

Great little quick lunch in the beer garden at the shoe in. The pub looked really cool inside, even had a little bakery and locals were popping in for loaves of bread 👌, sandwiches looked ace, they were on the menu as door wedge and they certainly looked it 🔥, we went with a pork salad and panko scallops and both were really tasty, we had fries on the side, a coke and a half IPA and just over £20. Great stuff, proper local pub, the type I'm sure we wished we all had.

Lovely food ... a bit different from everyday pub grub, which makes it stand out from the crowd. A very pleasing place to be, characterful decor, beautiful location, efficient staff, although smiles and eye contact would've been nice when we were being served. Definitely worth a visit. Edit: Further to writing this review, I have to say, the staff now working here are excellent, and everything is now spot on. It is one of our favourite places to eat. Edit July 2024: We love eating here but had never booked Sunday roast, so this was the first time. I booked a table online in the enclosed terrace (for a legitimate reason), paid the £20 deposit, and my table was confirmed. On arrival, I was really miffed because we were seated inside the pub because the lady whose table we were being given, saw a high chair placed at the adjacent table and told the staff she didn't want to be seated beside a young child, so she was given our confirmed table. How disgusting is that? The girl in charge, however, was very professional in her handling of the situation, so top marks to her. As a good will gesture, our desserts were taken off the bill, which, although appreciated, we would rather have sat where we were booked and paid for our full meal. We just felt that some random woman was treated favourably, and we were treated unfairly. It really put us off coming back here, and I'm really disgusted about it. The Sunday roast was poor in comparison to the weekday food, and we've definitely had better elsewhere. My beef was tough, and considering I buy my beef from Buckingham's and it's melt in the mouth when I do a roast at home, I can only blame the kitchen, because Buckingham's meat is exceptional quality. The roast potatoes weren't crispy, my Yorkshire pudding was overdone, and my cauliflower cheese was topped with black burnt bits. We won't be back for a roast, and until I stop reeling about the staff giving away our table for such a petty reason, I'll be avoiding a pub that I really did enjoy going to. Poor show The Shoe.

Delightful busy pub, good sized portions, home cooked. I had the pork belly which was moist, the fat had been rendered down and the crackling crispy. My husband had a pie which he thoroughly enjoyed. Three of us then shared the trio of puddings which included a lovely crumble. Would thoroughly recommend the pub which also has a bakery with good bread (also served to the table as an aperatif)

I recently dined at The Shoe at Exton with a group of eight, and we had a wonderful experience. Our table enjoyed both the pork belly and the lamb for our main courses. While I personally found the lamb a bit on the salty side, the overall quality and flavour of the dishes were excellent, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals.For dessert, we opted for the cheesecake, which was simply outstanding. It was the perfect way to end our dining experience. The service was attentive and friendly, making our visit even more enjoyable.I would highly recommend The Shoe at Exton to anyone looking for a delightful meal with great company. The quality of the food and the pleasant atmosphere make it a must-visit.

Be warned - no Sunday roast for walk-ins/garden tables. Decided to go for roast on a nice sunny warm Sunday lunch time. Arrived at midday to be told no roast for people sitting in the garden. We’ve been coming here for years and have enjoyed many Sunday roast lunches in the garden. We didn’t book a table inside because we prefer to sit outside in the summer. Apparently, they were saving the roasts for people who booked inside tables. Very disappointing and even when we offered to wait a while the response was negative and unhelpful. Let’s hope they see the light and go back to how things were.

Pretty grumpy staff - seemed like they were having a bad hair day! I had an e-Bike and was looking to charge it. Everywhere else we stopped on the multi-day route was super friendly and happy to accommodate, but the Shoe did a good job of making it feel like we were taking liberties by asking for a little bit of juice. Oh well, life’s too short! 😂

Had lunch here today. Food was excellent. Hubby had the belly pork and I had chicken. Both meals served in good time, excellent service and lovely staff. The bread with balsamic vinegar whilst waiting goes down a treat. The only downside was we didn’t have any space left for dessert as we were full. Definitely going back again.

We went to Exton today to visit Exton Park Vineyard. We stopped at The Shoe Inn for an early lunch and thank goodness we booked a table as the pub was full by about 12.30. Exton is a lovely village and the Inn is set in the middle of it. It is a lovely building with a lovely beer garden at the front and a stream to its right. Although it was a rainy day today, it didn’t take away the loveliness of this place. The inside of the inn is quaint and cozy. The food was amazingly good. We were expecting the usual pub lunch. However the food was beyond our expectation when it arrived. The ale was very nice according to my husband and his brother-in-law. I enjoyed the coffee very much and bought a bag of coffee beans to take home. If you are planning to visit The Shoe Inn it is best to book ahead because it was full today on a Tuesday, I can only imagine how busy it will get during weekends and bank holidays. Be aware that parking is limited. But all in all a very lovely pub with great food and service. We loved it.

Another beautiful meal at The Shoe. We have been going for years for husbands birthday and our anniversary meal and have never been disappointed with the food. Highly recommend the Pork belly, the locally made bread is very tasty served with balsamic vinegar and rapeseed oil dip - all available to purchase at the shoe from the Hampshire pantry. Service was good, friendly. Only reason 4 not 5 stars was the noise level with an unbooked large group as we were finishing our meal. We didn't stay for another drink as it became difficult to hear each other. Only occasion this has happened in our visits.

Third update (Visited again on the 12th April 2024) Visited many times since the last update. Every time the food and service has been of the highest level. Last night was no different. Love this pub, and can't wait for it to get warmer so we can sit in the garden. Second update (Visited again on the 19th August 2022) Again, extremely happy with our visit. The staff make you feel so welcome. This time we had food and it didn't disappoint. We have tried the food in a lot of pubs in the area and this is by far the best. Update (Visited again on 13th August 2022) Again, very pleased with our visit. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Along with the food and drink they sell they also make and sell bread. If they have sold out, you can buy pre-made bread mix. Will be visiting again very soon. Lovely pub hidden off the beaten track. Drink prices were very good. Didn't eat there but the dishes that were being brought out to customers looked very good. Staff are very friendly.

My partner and I booked for lunch at 12pm on Sunday 7th April. We only made the booking the night before as a last minute plan as we were looking for somewhere to eat before going to a wedding in the evening nearby. Unfortunately we had to cancel our booking yesterday morning as we were invited to the full day of the wedding on the morning of. We cancelled this via the online booking and charged a £20 fee deposit for cancelling. We called the pub today to see if we could come for lunch and whether there was anything they could do to take the fee off our bill. Our call had to be directed o the manager, who we felt was a bit rude and unapologetic considering we even made the original booking last minute. We completely understand the policy, however our original booking was less than 24 hours notice and we wanted to come today for lunch. We decided not to bother booking for lunch today with the way she spoke to us.

Situated in a lovely part of the Meon Valley, the menu is great, and if you want you can pick up some delicious freshly baked bread (and one or two other culinary ingredients). We went for lunch as a family group, and were all impressed (including the vegetarian). A range of contrasting dishes, and everything we chose was excellent. And good beer two. The establishment caters for hikers, and those driving in for a great meal - one of the best pubs in the area, in a valley pretty well served by good pubs. And if you aren’t after a serious hike, there are short picturesque walks nearby. Tip: if you are driving, and have have the choice between a big car and a small car, go for the latter. It’s a small pub car park, and the local lanes weren’t really designed for big 4x4s or SUVs.

Just staggeringly bad. If you think scallops are best fried in a batter jacket, you may not agree. If you think shoulder of lamb is a dish best shredded and patted into some kind of cake, then hurry back. Pretentious pomegranate, the silly addition of tasteless cress, failed to elevate these dishes to anywhere beyond the dire. How can you fail to offer a good, as in, properly cooked, roast potato?Second best pub in the county? No, I don't think so.

Visited a few weeks ago on a Sunday. Quite a boring pub in fairness, not much of an atmosphere was pretty cold in the bar area, and the drinks were average. Can't comment on the food as we didn't eat, but the restaurant was fairly busy. It was more of an eating place, I imagine, as one drink was enough and had no desire to stay for another.

We stopped here for Sunday lunch on our way home from the New Forest. We chose a roast which was a generous size with fresh veg, a Hugh Yorkshire and the meat just melted in the mouth. The staff were friendly and service was prompt. Isaac was very friendly and helped choose a great red wine to compliment our dinner. Would definitely recommend a visit to this cosy pub… 🤩
