Basil Fawlty lives! If you want to be made to feel awkward and unwelcome pop in. We were seated in the empty cold bar for wife's birthday meal as seemingly because we had our children with us. I asked to sit in the restaurant so we weren't sat alone. Landlord said he couldn't due to it being carpeted (bar was carpeted too). Eventually went to wooden floor area where two other tables were, seemed like he was trying to separate us. He was clearly stressed and only waiting on three tables including ours, laughable really. He bordered on rude and impolite when rushing back for a wine order nearly immediately after I asked for a few moments. No one came to see how our meal was, which is a basic courtesy in a restaurant. No thanks on payment either. Used to be a nice pub now run by a total clown who is out of his depth doing basic things. AVOID.

Wow….. this beautiful country pub is a real gem! My husband and I stopped off on the off chance of a table on a Saturday night at 5.30pm. The gentleman behind the bar managed to squeeze us and our 2 dogs in the cosy bar. What amazing luck we thought! Little did we realise how lucky. The food was sublime, I had a cheese soufflé to start which was outstanding. My husband had a soup which he loved. We both had the homemade steak pie and chips! Oh wow, it was divine, beautiful shortcrust pastry and thick juicy pieces of steak. All the staff were very polite and lovely. I can’t recommend highly enough.

Went here because of reviews on Tripadvisor. Nice old pub. Sunday lunch wasn’t as good as rated. Roasters were tough skinned, swede watery. It was an average lunch. The sundae was expensive for what it was and the ice cream had ice crystals on it. Also ordered a Yorkshire pudding for my dog and looked on bill £2.95. I don’t mind paying but thought that was a bit steep, although she did enjoy it. Made a trek to get there probably wouldn’t make the effort to go again. Fabulous for a drink and chat.

Just visited the Shoulder for a table of 6. I don’t often dine somewhere and could have easily eaten everyone else’s dish. All the meals ordered were delicious. The service at the Shoulder is friendly and efficient - the owners are so hard working. We also had desserts and those were also thoroughly enjoyed. We can’t recommend this place highly enough.

We were in Middle Tyas for a wedding and the local Travelodge suggested we try The Shoulder of Mutton. My oh my, how glad they did! What a find. It was only a 5-minute drive from the Travelodge. If you are staying at the Travelodge, it looks like it is in walking distance, but it is down country lanes, and late at night, returning home, wouldn’t be nice, so don’t try and walk it, unless you are having lunch. Anyway, I’d booked on-line and James was very accommodating. We turned up around 6.30pm, and had a drink in the small bar area, before being taken to our table. The restaurant is pretty large and very busy, with many returning locals. The menu is pretty big and there are also daily specials on the blackboard. We started off with a G&T and a beer, followed by a bottle of wine. My husband chose the Scotch Egg, for starters; slightly soft in the middle and absolutely delicious. For mains, we both chose from the daily specials' blackboard. I opted for the Lamb Navarin (a French Lamb Stew, with scrummy veg and perfect herbs). It was topped with a puff pastry lid. My husband opted for the Lamb Rump – he said it was fabulous. Together with dauphinoise potatoes, fat chips and a side of perfectly-cooked vegetables – we were very happy indeed. Everything was just perfect. I couldn’t help but chose a Shoulder of Lamb ‘sundae’, which was enormous. Of course, we shared, but ice-cream and oodles of double-cream and fruit – finished the evening off perfectly. The bill came to under £100, and coming from Essex, we were more than happy – very reasonable – everything on the menu was reasonably priced. The service could not be faulted. James’ wife was delightful and whizzing around all over the place. But, a special thank you to the young lady who served us for the majority of the time. I apologise for not capturing her name, but she was fabulous – a great asses to the restaurant, that’s for sure. My only regret …………. Is that we hadn’t stayed in North Yorkshire a bit longer – we would have definitely returned, and hope to at some stage. Fantastic restaurant, great ambience. Lots of parking. We need more restaurants to be like The Shoulder of Lamb – top marks!

Accommodated for full restaurant meal in bar as we needed to bring our dog (who was made very welcome with treats) - nothing was a problem to the friendly and efficient staff. Delicious sharing boards to start followed by many of us having the famous pie - highly recommend. Others in the party had steak and curry… something for everyone. Excellent location.. do visit if you can!

Phoned to enquire if I could book a table for 2 in advance. I was recommended to do so for a Sunday evening as they were short staffed. Booked a table for 6pm. The menu was extensive plus a specials board. My husband had the scotch egg starter ( I had a nibble) it was lovely. I ordered the steak pie and my husband the sirloin steak. They were both cooked to perfection. Had no room for dessert. Had 2 young members of staff waiting on and they did a fab job. Lovely little pub….wish it was our local 😍

The staff were extremely helpful and pleasant and our food & drinks arrived very quickly. The roast pork, beef & lamb we chose individually were very tender and good sized portions. The many vegetables were cooked to perfection too, and we even had room for desserts! Will definitely go back!

This is the worst pub for customer service I have ever been into. We arrived on Sarurday afternoon with our dogs, and as we walked in the landlady appeared hostile and rude. She abruptly said ' Have you booked a table' we replied no we havant. so as we made our way to a table we were given disgusting looks as though we were dirt of the street. She had a very poor attitude and we felt embarrassed. We decided not to stay in her pub, and on the way out, she snilled and grunted at the man behind the bar who must have been the landlord. She made some comment to him which made us feel inadequate. Although we was not necessary dressed appropriately, we are not dirt off the street. We both happen to be key workers and have both worked tirelessly through the pandemic. I specifically have a high profile job and hold high standing. We certainly do not appreciate being judged and treated like dirt. We were looked down upon and made to feel inadequate. This is certainly not acceptable in this day and age especially with no customer service skills. A very rude lady with poor attitude. I certainly will not be recommending this pub to my colleagues.

Food was a bit disappointing, the four of us who had a meal all thought the same. It was expensive for what it was and the stroganoff was floating in oil. I have eaten this in various restaurants and countries and is cream based with brandy. Not sure what recipe they were following.

What an amazing pub. The food, the staff, the chef, the people (here’s looking at you Nick, Jane, and Mark!). I had the special, a monk fish and shrimp curry and my husband had the duck breast and we shared the sticky toffee pudding. All were so delicious, and by far the best pub food we had in England in our 16-day trip. And the pub itself was exactly what I wanted to experience. Wish we had gone earlier; we would have returned every night. Thank you for a terrific, local experience. We will remember you fondly.

Great, proper country pub, with consistently good food, service and beer. We stay in nearby Richmond twice each year and always make sure we visit the Shoulder of Mutton each time - we’ve been eating here for about six years now. Booking ahead is useful as they’re usually busiest early in the evening (and closed Monday and Tuesday). There’s always a staple of things they do very, very well - such as a steak pie, fish and chips, fish pie, cheese soufflé, sharing boards etc - as well as specials, such as black pudding bon bons and deep fried squid. You’ll usually be spoiled for choice, put it like that. We’re big fans of Black Sheep and that’s usually on tap. The steak pie is consistently good, as are the double dipped chunky chips. Highly recommended.

Situated is a small village we didn’t expect it to be too busy at 7pm on a Tuesday evening but found a few diners in there. A warm welcome from staff and a good choice of food which appeared to be freshly cooked and fairly generous in portion size. A very nice meal at a reasonable price. Worth the visit.

A genuinely outstanding meal in a lovely village pub. Felt very Covid safe and the inside of the pub looked lovely, but the outside seating area was more than adequate in these times. The food was exceptional, undoubtedly one of the best pub meals I’ve ever had. Staff were all friendly too and if we get the chance again, we won’t hesitate to visit this little gem.

Gorgeous characterful pub, roaring fire, staff welcoming. Limited menu but fine with that. We had pate and tempura vegetables to start .. both ok, followed by roast beef which was 70% fat and inedible. We like al dente vegetables but what we were served were raw and inedible. The other dish was partridge which was incredibly chewy. We told the waitress about the raw veg and she just said ‘oh’. There are much better places around.

Selected this pub based on Tripadvisor reviews, as a convenient place to meet my daughter for Christmas present exchange. It turned out to be a great choice. I had requested separate, adjoining tables, as we were two households. The pub was only too happy to oblige, and had placed us in a little alcove. Service was relaxed and pleasant, and we felt completely safe. The food was excellent, and can recommend the garlic prawns, fish pie, beef wellington and pork chops!You will not be disappointed.

James and Hannah always make us feel welcome and more importantly safe. The food is excellent and the service is friendly. I had beer battered fish with katsu sauce...just yummy. My partner had steak pie again that tells you everything. Our family had specials off the board all of such good quality. Nice to see a normal menu with plenty of choice. Thank you again

We booked the family room upstairs . Food was exceptional and the service very friendly . Sadly we only visit once a year but James and his staff are always welcoming and accommodating. Thank you for a lovely evening and well done in the present climate , it didn’t deter us from enjoying the company and food

Wow! When I asked for the bill, it arrived promptly not just with a credit card machine but with sanitiser spray and a cleaning cloth, so the buttons could be cleaned Both before and after my transaction. I think that’s the first time I’ve seen that happen in a pub. It just shows the care and attention here.But that’s not why you should book in here. The staff are very efficient, there’s a buzz of happy customers & the food is amazing, from home made beef and ale pie, cooked to order, to a wide range of daily specials. We could only manage 1 dessert between 3 of us so go hungry. You’ll be glad you did.

My friend and I went for a drink here last night! I just wanted to say a huge thank you to you all. We felt safe and were very impressed by how every precaution was made! We sat outside and didnt even need to use the card machine due to them having a very easy to use app. They also provide a very efficient track and trace system. We had a lovely evening enjoying the sun with a lovely bottle of wine. All in all fantastic service in a safe environment.Please support this pub and stay safe!

We visited here in August. Was staying in a nearby Hotel so took a walk down here for our evening meal. I had phoned ahead in case needing to book so we had a booking. Were seated promptly and had time to look over the menu. Was also advised of what the specials were. We chose to share a Garlic Bread as a starter. This was nice. Ciabatta style Bread and light Garlic flavouring. Mains we both went for the Haddock and Chips. We both really enjoyed it. Large piece of battered Fish. Not overly Greasy and just right. The Chips were SO good. Super thick cut and double cooked. I also had Mushy Peas and these were fine. Also had a side of Beer Battered Onion Rings. Nice, puffy home made Onion Rings. Very tasty and my husband thought these were very delicious. Dessert was Sticky Toffee Pudding to finish off. Service was good, staff were attentive and great and we would definitely eat here again and would recommend this to anyone who wishes to try here. Homely welcoming village pub with some great flavoursome food.

Quirky for sure but very friendly and very keen to please. The soup we had was delicious and having leaf tea was a treat. Scones on the table is a lovely idea but a cover would be better. Lovely chat with the proprietor and really good at engaging with our whole family.

Just thought I would take the opportunity and time to give credit where it’s due! I have read through some of the reviews from 2022 and can only imagine that there was a hang over from Covid , or there must have been different owners? I couldn’t praise this establishment highly enough. This is the only Pub in the small hamlet of Redmire , and the centre of the community. It was a wonderful mixture of friendly ambience with excellent traditional food. 3 of us visited in June , and after dining on the Monday, we ate there for the rest of the week, and never had anything other than a good meal, trying different dishes every night! We are returning again in August , and will probably dine again every evening during our vacation. This is a fantastic local pub serving quality traditional food made from locally sourced produce. If people are expecting Haute cuisine, then they need to manage their expectations, and probably dine elsewhere, leaving more capacity for the customers that appreciate it. As far as we are concerned…. Well done and keep up the good work! 👍👍👍

Would have been 5 if barmaid hadn't put a full bottle of tonic in our gin. You serve it so customer puts what they want in and had to ask fir a slice of lemon 🍋
