Had a desire for spare ribs for a birthday lunch and so googled "best ribs near me" and the Shinfield Arms was top of the list. A reservation was made and a confirmation email was received which was appreciated. We arrived and were shown to our where the menus were perused. Our drinks orders were taken as well as selections from the bountiful menu (a full offering of vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free dishes is also available from the menu) from staff members Sam and Darren whilst the day's specials were explained to us by the pleasant maître' d' , Victor. Garlic pizza bread with garlic and herb dip was a great start to the main course and was full of flavour. Mains followed shortly afterwards and the ribs lived up to their reputation! They were tender, tasty with oodles of barbecue sauce - absolutely divine! Slightly larger portions of chips and coleslaw would have been nice as they did not last partircularly long. Other items ordered were the pan-fried calves liver and bacon, the bacon double cheese burger, a prawn cocktail and chicken goujons and chips for the youngest diner which are all applauded. Dessert was graciously declined but a number of tasty dishes were available. Our glasses were kept charged during the entire meal by the attentive staff. A thoroughly enjoyable outing to the Shinfield Arms was had by all and kudos to Darren and Sam for their splendid service. A return visit will definitely be on the cards!
