Customer Review Summary

Sunday roasts draw repeat praise, with one diner singling out the Cumberland sausage and mash and its onion gravy, while others return for the steak pie and fish and chips. Close behind, several mention the cajun chicken burgers and a well-kept pint of Guinness, and friendly, welcoming staff come up again and again, including a landlord and team credited with making group celebrations and birthday parties go smoothly. The setting and views also draw comment from first-time visitors. A recurring caveat: one regular reports the food has been "slipping" lately, describing grilled haddock served tepid on a cold plate with hard new potatoes, and another diner found the fish and chips batter could have been crispier. A separate visitor noted being seated at a small table too cramped for three plates and condiments despite other tables sitting empty. Even with those slips, most describe clean plates and full tables, including one account of seven diners, three adults and four children, finishing everything with no complaints.

    “This was my visit to ‘Shooters Arms’ and I was very impressed. It was quite a walk up to the pub but the views are stunning and on arrival, we were greeted by the landlord who took us to our table. He then arranged drinks for us and brought the menu and advised us of the specials. There was a variety of meals available for both adults and children. We ordered and the quality of the food was excellent. The lady who served us was polite and helpful and made us feel valued customers. There were 7 of us,3 adults and 4 children, with no complaints from anyone !....and 7 clean plates!. The food price is very competitive and there was a variety of ales and drinks at the bar. There are more details on their website of menu’s etc. I would highly recommend a visit to ‘Shooters Arms’ for quality meals, in a relaxed clean environment and a huge ‘thank you’ to the landlord and his staff, a great experience.”

    “I recently celebrated my 80th birthday with a family gathering at The Shooters. It was a brilliant night in a private room and the food was excellent, thanks to Lucy and her team for making it so enjoyable, hope to do it all again in 2035 😂”
