We booked a suprise party for my parents anniversary. The pub was very helpful in allowing us to organise it and decorate the room. We pre booked all the meals except my parents. Once we got there the hospitality was on point right through till we left. They were quick with service and very organised when it came to payment. Great menu, great presentation and delicious food. The only i suppose negative point which really actually isnt. People would of liked a crumble or for e.g apple pie and custard on the dessert list. But that us trivual to the rest of the possitives. Will definitely be coming back.
We ate here last Thursday I've not been for a while . The food was amazing and reasonably priced. We will definitely be coming again !
Lovely meal. Lovely friendly village pub..
Had a great family meal today.... Many thanks for helping to accommodate the rest of the family that turned up.... Lovely Sunday lunch enjoyed by us all.
Six of us dined there this evening in the conservatory section of the restaurant. It was absolutely fabulous !
The service was excellent and the food was superb.
We had heard nothing about it, just liked the look of it as we passed one day.
We were not disappointed. Highly recommended - although the car park could do with sorting as it was both muddy and icy and very uneven.
We've just had a lovely evening at the shire horse. There were 20 of us for a family meal. The food was delicious and the staff were all fantastic! The girls who served us were very patient and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you so much for a lovely evening :-)
This used to be my second home years ago but it changed hands and suffered. Great to see it back on top form now, with lovely home cooked food (proper slice of pie) and a well kept cellar serving up an excellent pint. Decor and lighting greatly improved too. Will be returning as often as possible.
Super dog friendly and superb Sunday lunch. What more can I say?
What can I say. Food is great staff efficient and friendly can't fault it !!!
The atmosphere was really chilled and the food amazing!

Food is fabulous, and the atmosphere is country pub meets culture. Fantastic
Lovely atmosphere and great food.
Been going to this pub for a few years now and the food is alway constant. It's quality pub food but the Sunday roasts are the best, sirlion of beef slightly pink n delicious. Puds are good if your that way inclined too. With staffing changes in recent times, the front of house can be a bit hit n miss with some clearly not capable of being hospitable and the back dining room area is in bad need of refurbishment. Lovely views however from the garden overlooking the fields and the distant Peak District.
Lovely meal at the Shire Horse, friendly service, lovely home cooked food and a very reasonable price.
Ordered the pate to start which was wonderful, came with salads and bread and was a huge portion.
Main course was lamb and mint pie which was homemade and very tasty.
My wife had fish and chips which she loved.
Would definitely come again soon.
Recommend lovely country pub.
Friendly staff, good quality and tasty food with a good variety. Child friendly. We visited twice while holidaying. Recommended!
A lovely chat with the landlord. I wish the place all the very best. It's worth thinking about reintroducing food, sir.
Surprising find.... Doesn't look much from the outside but has a real nice old country pub feel inside with a great menu, delicious food and excellent service. Definitely recommended!
Lovely village style pub out ‘in the sticks’ so to speak. 10 minutes outside Ashbourne at most.
Lovely views and good food. Nice selection of drinks and all reasonably priced.
Can get busy so worth booking in advance if you plan on eating. Menu is extensive and portion sizes are good.
Have taken the wife here on a few impromptu date nights as well as celebrating a family 70th (back room hired) and the staff have been pleasant each time.
Ample parking.
Brilliant view from the pub garden. The food is wonderful and reasonably priced for such high quality. Dogs are allowed in part of the restaurant. The bar is always very busy full of people.
Excellent value meal. Good portion size. Friendly welcome.
Good food and great atmosphere. Staff very good and service excellent. It was really nice to visit a traditional good old fashioned pub with amazing antique furniture and a fantastic view of the country side.
First time visit this evening and we had a lovely time. Food was great and all the staff were lovely and looked after us really well. Would definitely recommend if in the area.
We'll have to come back for Sunday roast which we hear is rather good 😋😋
Thanks again for a super first visit.
Well we've been back a few times now, most recently for a great Sunday lunch with the family. Still a 5 star experience and can't wait to be back!!
